Quick question for any US customers that have ordered from Canvapes or that are just familiar with the Canada postal tracking system. I know that here the USPS is inconsistent at best on updating their tracking info. I'm not sure if Canada has the same issue or not. I ordered on the 12th, ordered shipped the 13th (you guys rock!) and the last tracking update was the 15th where it says that the package has arrived in a foreign country.

I've never ordered from outside of the states before so I was expecting it to take longer. I'm not complaining about the ship times, I'm just curious as to whether or not I should be concerned with a customs issue or if it's like the USPS and can show up anytime with no further updates on the tracking system.

I only ordered hardware so I can't imagine that customs is an issue. I don''t expect the package to come until next week so I'm just curious about how the tracking system works since it seems to be at a standstill.

Thanks

Tracking for basic packages is pretty much the same as the US, in that tracking pretty much stops as soon as it leaves the country. Customs should not be an issue since it is US customs who would inspect it and E-cigs aren't an issue in the US like they are here (though not for the FDA's lack of trying). It's only a potential issue going the other way, and then only with nic-based E-juice and sometimes cartomizers.

Ordered a new KSD VV for a backup battery, got it this morning with one difference from the first KSD I bought... The USB PT cord is FREAKING AWESOME.

Normal PT cords are just long cords, nothing special. The new one I got today is wrapped around a coil that extends to different lengths and retracts when you're not using it. This is super handy for when you're just charging and not using the battery so you don't have a long cord just hanging around that you can trip over.

I might be a little too excited about this, but my damn cat is always running around knocking things over and she ALWAYS manages to run in to the cord my PT is charging on and knocks it over. So having this little curl up cord is damn awesome for charging my PT when I'm not actually using it.

Oh and cards we still have like 24000 or something ridiculous if you want some just put cards in the notes on your order. I know some of us are real advocates and hand them out to strangers on the streets that are puffing away, but for the normal people :) they will just be tossing them in the garbage.

Evo's finally shipped, mini lavatube next week(only 50 first shipment so be quick) more IMR batteries in 18650 and 18350 incoming.

Are these AW batts or generic? I'm finding certain issues (mainly a lack of oomph) with the ones that ship with the LT and LT mini. Especially the mini when used with DCCs.

So the people that give out the cards aren't "normal"? Is that it? Lol

Also, I'm really looking forward to seeing the lavatube mini and the price for the kit... I'd love a basic kit with just the mod, 2 batteries and charger... I have cartos and a carry case lol I just need the basics... Also, what's the difference between the IMR (hope that's right) and the trustfire batteries? Is it just brand or is there a big diff?

I wish someone would make an end cap for the LT to make it USB chargeable so I don't have to carry a spare battery if u forgot to charge it the day before... I work on a computer all day so I could plug in a USB cable all day...

Boo :(

Just to let you guys know, my order arrived today as I thought it would. It came faster than I anticipated, so I'm excited :D Most of what I ordered was for my son who started smoking AFTER I'd been off analoges for 2 years...go figure. He's thrilled and was really excited to have his own stuff.

Thanks again guys for a great experience.

These are from the same supplier that I have been getting all the IMR's from. Quality battery, quality price. From the beginning of time I have always noted that AW's aren't that special to me. I'm also the kind of guy that buys my clothes at the outlet mall and Old Navy. We have went through a pile with a 0 defect rate I'm pretty sure. I think a couple of the lavatube batteries have been bad and I agree they aren't the best but they are the cheapest of the cheap. If someone can correct me please do.

Can't remember if I told you all lately how freaking awesome those V510's are?? :) Man, the more I use this baby, the more I love it! So glad I have some more coming my way now! I may never go back to my beloved Kangers (sorry sweethearts - I think you've been replaced). These are SO easy to use and remember folks ... this is coming from someone who could royally screw up the Visions. Don't know why I have managed to use this one I bought consistantly now for two weeks without wrecking it but ... hey! I'm not complaining! :D

I am loving the fact that it is so easy to fill, so easy to change flavors on and just ... well ... so easy to use! No leaking at all. Very little condensation in the mouthpiece and just a beauty to use!

Thanks for bringing these in, Mopar! Hope people are catching on to these because they are just screaming awesome!
