Order from China or from USA?

[skywalk]

I have read raving reviews about cignot, nhaler, and quite a few others. My question is: should I order the joye 510 from these companies, or should I order from eastmall or any other china supplier? (lets assume I dont care about shipping time)

what I really really want, is quality products. Don't these reputable companies order from china anyway? so does it make sense to order direct from china? forgive my ignorance but i'm a complete newbie (btw, I live in singapore)

thanks all

well with the basic ecig models and being from Singapore china would seem to be the logical choice.... the atties and batteries are for the most part from china anyway.

as for mods and juices... you would find US made products as well and for that my friend US would be the choice.

I live in Japan, so I order from china, but I do order from the US as well ...

Heavens- Gift is the only one I order from. Wayne Zhang is great, you'll like him.

Thanks for the replies. Are Attys from these places the same as attys from the states?

I only order from U.S. companies. I've heard too many things about peoples orders getting ganked at customs.
The shipping from China is expensive and the shipping time is too long, IMO. Yes, ordering from China is cheaper, but when you figure in the shipping costs and the time it takes to get to you, not to mention the fact it might not make it past customs....it just doesn't justify an order from there. This is all my opinion, of course.....

But I see your in Singapore...you'd benefit from ordering from China.

I don't care about shipping time. I just need to know Who ships the most reliable attys or if it's all the same?

I got my China order one day after my US order from Wayne at Heaven gifts. When I factored in the express shipping I paid less than 12.00 per 30 ml bottle of fluid even though I opted for lots of the little samplers too. Ordered XMas day with three holidays and two weekends in between. The only place it was held up was NY for three of the ten days I waited, usualy only takes a week, I would still come out cheaper if say I order a 510 kit for 33.00 with EMS express shipping of 12 dollars, cheaper than most other sites. Lets not talk about the SD I just got from a US supplier whose button seems to always be on the verge of falling off.

I will be ordering liquid from Tasty vapor and a V2 from Pure smoker just cause its a totally different thing.

So what was the problem again with ordering from China?

skywalk if you're buying stock batterys and attys they're all the same no matter where you buy them, so China is your best bet.

For juice however, the U.S. makers are the best, imo.

you might have better and faster customer service with a US supplier,most back up there products.China is good for larger orders IMO.

Thanks banjoman. That's exactly what I was looking for. If they're all the same then I'll get my attys from china

The problems I have from ordering from China are my own opinion. If your happy with ordering from China, please be my guest, order to your hearts content.

You do realise that e-cigs are banned in Singapore, I hope? Just saying that you may have a problem with customs whoever you order from. If you go with China: Eastmall, Bestecig, and Heaven Gifts are all great suppliers. Best of luck to you.

I have had no probs ordering from both the US and China, I ended up ordering the same things on the same night, and waited to see which came first. (I live in Australia)
China won by 1 day, was half price and the products were exactly the same.

I have been wanting to get some US good quality juice, but not many want to ship here.

If I lived in Singapore, I would go China for stock hardware, and maybe later US for mods and premium juice.

Problems with ordering from China are nation-specific. In the UK we seem to have fewer problems and faster delivery from China than people in the US do.

To be honest I've ordered stuff from the US, China and UK and had no real problems ever...

I agree if you are just getting a coupla bottles of juice, don't waste your time going to China. I, however and much too cheap to do that.....lol. I buy everything like it is Sam's or Costco!

As mine are both my opinion and my experience after almost a year of ordering from that ONE vendor, which is why he was named. I cannot speak for any other vendor.

When it comes to stock hardware, it's all born in China, so it really doesn't matter where you buy (from a quality standpoint). If you want it quicker buy American. If you want it cheaper buy Chinese.

For mods or juice...I only buy american.

 

[skywalk]

Thanks to everyone for the replies. Since it is generally accepted that stock hardware is all from china anyway, and is loads cheaper, I'll get my stuff from them.

i would have to vote for ordering directly from China. i have placed several orders from China and everything is cheaper, much cheaper and tastes great and the items work perfectly. i use the KR808D-1 and i refill my carts and it works out perfectly. im not saying to blow off the companies in the states, im just saying that if you plan on making a big order to go with China, more bang for your buck.

also, as an added bonus, you dont have to worry about getting batteries and other items with company logos on them, you can get solid color items without logos.

Pretty much the same as long as you are buying Joye, or slb, products as said earlier most of the hardware is made in China anyways.
