Just wondering why you guys have so many items that have been out of stock for what seems like forever. Everytime I need something and I remember, "Oh yeah, MadVapes has that" You guys are out of stock. Example.. Project Boxes. If you're not going to stock them, then don't put them on the site. I needed an eGo ring to use the smok tanks on an eGo, something that should be very easy to get. Out of stock, and it's basically at the bottom of the list which usually means it's been out for awhile and won't be back anytime soon. Another, the UltraFire 18500 button top Li-ion, which is a no brainer to have for the BOLT just for those people who don't want to use an 18650 because of size. Yeah, the flat top might work, but I don't consider it safe to use flat tops in a tube mod unless it was designed for it. I know this is just a rant, but some of these things are a little ridiculous to be left out of stock for so long IMO. Maybe you can't justify the minimum piece order to satisfy a few customers. And that's understandable, but don't tease us if you don't plan on stocking an item.

It's back and forth on that one. We decided to keep items that were out of stock visible so peeps can get on the notify list when they come back in. When we hide stuff, we get tickets asking why we don't carry it anymore :(

I hate the out of stocks and we're working to get better control of our ordering and removing obsolete items so that hopefully out of stock will just be a short term status..

I feel ya on the project boxes!! I bought one of the long skinny black ones that slide together(its the 4.5 x 1.4 x 1)..... they're absolutely the best project box I've found yet! Simply cuz there's plenty of room for multiple components & battery configurations and they're shaped in such a way that they have a feel that is similar to a tube mod. I bought the one I have like six months ago, and Have been waiting for them to be back in stock ever since. They had black ones and white ones, But I don't care what color it is. I just need a few more!!!

Funny that I found this thread. I left a message for support the other day mentioning
this same thing. I was excited to be going through the site, and then bummed out
cuz so many things were out of stock.

To be fair, I'm finding that almost everywhere now. Maybe it has something to do with
that recent Chinese holiday. I dunno. I see both sides - don't show them to me if you
don't have them - and I also understand the option to be able to get notified when
something comes in. I have used that on occasion. It always comes in between paydays
and it's out again when I go back :)
