Processing Time?

[PosingOwl]

Hey everyone,

I just started logging in more frequently, lost touch with ecf. But on Saturday night I finally gave in and bought a Provari. I didnt want to go all out so I only got a battery, charger, and the blue led, and its black. I have been checking the website to see when it is going to be shipped. I know it said 7-10 days but I am impatient and I have priority shipping to get it here quicker. What is the processing process. Do they have to build it or why does it take so long?

Thanks in advance.

i got my shipping confirmation just 19 hours after i placed my order (on february 19)

I think from what I've gathered over my days here most people say if you got a color, it CAN take a bit longer. They don't always have them in stock. If they get 200 orders for blue, 80 orders for white, 300 orders for black, they might do all the blues in 1 day or they might do 50 blues 50 blacks 50 whites today and then its quitting time. They might do black standards today and black minis tomorrow. So you can see why the processing would take a couple or a few days. If they were out of your color and they just painted blacks and moved onto pinks after you placed your order later in the day, they might not be inclined to clean out the pressure painter for a few black orders. Also, the ordering goes on at a separate facility from the warehouse so it might take a day for them to relay your order to the warehouse. Especially if you ordered later in the day. Idk how it works, I can only imagine. But yeah, I hear it takes longer the more customizations you add. Processing time is usually 4 days to a week. Mine took a few days to process and I ordered satin w/ the regular red LED. Takes a few days, probably around 3-4 to process, and then shipping will be fast. Probably next day for you if you paid for priority.

OK, yeah I was just wondering about the process. I got the Satin black mini. I have been waiting for a few months to buy it, so I am excited as hell. Lets see, I have had a Lava Tube(lost), torpedo from totally wicked(lava tube?) and a few pass thru's plus, some others from a kiosk where I live (good prices) compared to all the other kiosk sellers. So yeah, my first expensive pv and I am thrilled. LOL

Totally understandable that you're soooo excited! I think I placed my order on a Friday night & had it by that wed or thurs but the processing said 3-4 days I think. Hopefully you'll get a shipment conf soon!!

I ordered the same thing last Wednesday, and it's still in processing mode. At the time it said processing was 4-7 days, but now i noticed it has been changed to 7-10 days. And those days don't include weekends.

I ordered a blue 2.5 with blue led on 2/28 and it was in my mailbox by 3/2. I have no idea what all is involved with the process but I'm sure there is something to do with what is in stock and what has been ordered. How many the make a day etc etc. Also take into account if someone orders juice or carto's, etc.

ordered last sunday, shipped out monday at 4pm. Checked the shipping info and it's already halfway to NY now.

and i ordered a black v 2.5 with a blue led, extended cap and extra battery.

Maybe I just ordered at the wrong time? Anyways, I still check my mail and provape on a hourly basis to see if it changed (slow day at work). One of my buddies who just started vaping in early jan has been spending a fortune on gear. Just bought an evic and we are wanting to DIY, so tomorrow we are ordering some. Whats the best setup for the provari (i know it depends on personal use)? Also is the satin black painted on? or is it like a rubber grip around it?

the color is baked on and its ceramic, the trade name is ceracote.

the processing time is more for them should there be a delay, its better to tell you it will be a few days and send it out. then say ok ready now then tell you its not.
your right its personal preference, there is no best. people use everything from vivinova's to drippers to rebuldable tanks, so its what ever you enjoy using.

When I ordered my blem ProVari the stated processing time was 2 days and it took exactly 2 days for it to ship. I am assuming, since the blems are already on the shelf, that it takes at least 2 days for an order to go through their system, get packaged and shipped out. I would also assume customizations add to the shipping time, as others have already stated.

I appreciate a vendor who is up front about shipping times. If it will be 7 days then tell me that and I will be happy. What I hate is when I am told it will be 2 days and it actually takes 7 days.

Enjoy your new ProVari. I hope you get it sooner rather than later.

I ordered mine on last week on Sunday morning and it was in my mailbox 3 days later on Wednesday at 11:00am. The ProVape website said that prossessing time was 4-7 days at the time that I ordered. Congrats on your new ProVari!!!

 

[PosingOwl]

Thanks everyone. I was just wondering about the process. Like others stated I appreciate that they are honest about the times. I am just a little impatient with how much i spent on it. My buddy is having problems with his evic and vivi nova's, but ce4 and 5's work well with it. I told him about the provari and if it doesnt start working correctly he might get one as well. LOL

 

[Scoper50]

Just checked the provape website today. The processing time for a black provari mini is now 20-25 days

 

[PosingOwl]

It finally went through. Shipped yesterday and is estimated to be here tomorrow. I am happy as hell right now. Thanks for the info everyone.

 

[PosingOwl]

Havent arrived yet and the usps tracking says that it left Albuquerque this morning. I live in Clovis, which is 3 hours away from what i am told. USPS says estimated delivery time is today, so I am patiently waiting

To much stress I am causing myself. LOL

 

[PosingOwl]

YAY!!!! It finally arrive this afternoon, just in time for work. Am I part of the Provari club? LOL
Now to try some different types of tanks on it.

You will have issues with the Vivi Novas with the Provari, too, from what I hear. I don't care for the Vivi Nova. The other clearos, T2's, CE4, BCC Mega have worked quite nicely with my eVic. A brainwashed Provari cultist I know says that the Vivi's have issues on the Provari.

I am only kidding, that Provari is a great device and you will have a wonderful time vaping with it. I do think they have issues with the Vivi though, at least that is what I have heard...but I don't have a Provari....yet. Congratulations and happy vaping!!

 

[PosingOwl]

Thanks, I have realized that my nova has a really tight drawer/no drawer tightened all the way. I am wanting to buy some phiniac tanks next month. The CE4's that we sell here are not working with it, but I will make it work for me....
