Ko Gen Do and Chaddo's are two of the big names for vapers. I've used Chaddo's and Shiseido (Sephora) and I can't tell the difference. I've never tried Labo but I doubt it's any different. I've used about 20 pads and maybe half the time I toss part of it away in close to a year.

This is what I have and this is a better deal than I got, 165 for $9.50 free shipping.... Nordstrom

Depending on shipping for the Labo, this might be a better deal.

Wonder if you can find that stuff locally, like at a beauty supply. I've sworn off U.S.P.S. after my latest bout with out of route mail. For several months I've had to go to the P.O. with tracking info about mail being sent somewhere else once or twice a month. The most recent was a couple of weeks ago. 2 out of 4 packages made it to the Orlando distribution center and got sent to another town instead of the one where I live. Just got them yesterday after a couple of trips and about an hour trying to talk to a live person at Consumer Affairs. When I called I got sent around the phone system to 3 people before I got to the right case worker and then got disconnected while she was explaining. Had to call back and go through almost the same dance. They were sent back to the distribution center where they were about to be returned to the vendor instead of being put on the right track. I wish they'd privatize the service or at least the package end. Maybe if they only had junk mail and letters they could get it right. They tell me that would be worse but I've never had a problem with either UPS or Fedex and we averaged about 90 packages a week with them without a problem. I'm not buying anything else from Vendors that don't offer alternates. It usually costs more but at least I can get what I buy in less than 2 weeks.

We're pretty rural here,Wuzz. I'm sure there's some shops down in Keene but I'm also sure they'd be pricey. I've been pretty lucky with USPS so far.

Up until a few months ago I seldom had any trouble. We're not exactly in the big city here either. Used to have to drive about 25 miles for groceries and farther for anything else. Got some stuff closer now but when I say local I mean at least 13 miles one way to a vape shop or any kind of specialty shopping. Still don't get mail delivery at home and before 911 didn't have a street address. When I see a package go to another state on it's way I know it's going to get in a loop for at least 3 days before it proceeds to Fl. I used to be able to count on it being in my box next day once it hit Orlando. In the last few months I've had 4 get scattered all over Central Fl. Until last week they always managed to get them here in a couple of days. These stayed all week and if I hadn't stayed on it and called cs probably would have been returned. I would have driven farther than 50 miles just to be able to pick them up but even that wasn't available. I'm just done with it. The money I save on Amazon Prime alone will pay for a lot of alternate shipping.

I like it too but free shipping is the main part I use. No sense in keeping it if I'm doing away with mail order. Not many really rural places left around here anymore. "Civilization" is encroaching with all the people moving here no matter where you go. Still some a little farther out but I gotta wonder how long that will last. Course, I don't know how much longer I'm gonna last either lol. I'll be doing good to make it to TT's age. He's an inspiration to me.
