Ordered 2 Bellus tanks from Origin vape on 10/15.
Placed order at 1:15am, got shipping notice at 6:30am, tracking showed them at the Sort Facility at 10:00am! According to USPS I'll have them tomorrow!

With a coupon code they came to $23.20 each.
I ordered mine from origin also and it's on it's way already!

Allegedly mine cleared customs yesterday, and is at a sort facility now. The tracking number from cigabuy is weird, it doesn't track on the USPS site, but I'll just believe that it's coming, and should be here soon.
Yeah, I've tried following the link Cigabuy provides to the USPS site but it doesn't work. I wonder if it works after the USPS sorting stage?

Right behind you...

Most foreign parcels won't show up on USPS tracking until it's been put in a container and ready to actually ship to the US, because that's when they're supposed to notify USPS/Customs (with the manifest of the whole shipment). The message is "Origin post is preparing shipment"

It could be a few days from when the local foreign post office received the package to when it makes it to that point, and it could sit at the outbound location for another few days while they wait for an available flight/boat and it's actually in transit. Then it can sit for a few more days once it arrives at a US Customs "port of entry" before it's scanned again, then it can be a few more days before Customs releases the parcel to the USPS for regular sorting and eventually delivery.

Oh my! USPS got their act together and mine vibrant pray instead of the original Monday delivery. Makes up for the occasional package that goes astray I suppose, but I win today at least!
Any issues with excess oil or needing to boil in turpentine or whatever?
When I got mine, it had residual juice left in it (Youde is known for testing their products by vaping them before they ship them out - great QC to me!) That may have been because it was a review model. But no, no funky machine oil. Still soaked the daylights out of it tho, but that's just standard for me to do lol.

Ok I got mine. It didn't smell like oil so I threw caution to the wind and did a quick rinse. 2 titanium 6 wrap coils. Turned the temperature back to 300 and was rewarded with an amazingly nasty dry hit.
Took it back apart and cut the wick way back. Amazing how little the tails have to be. Doing much better now. I'm working the temperature up to find the sweet spot now.
