After almost 7 years of vaping, and if you include juice orders, hundreds of packages successfully delivered, I think I have my very first lost order. I'm holding out hope, and remaining positive about it, but it's dwindling.

The Thelema I ordered from Everzon on February 5 has been lost somewhere in the skies over Chicago, Forest Park Georgia, or Memphis Tennessee... I think it went through JFK twice, once being a foray through customs.

The Thelema I ordered from sourcemore on February 21 arrived on Monday. Oddly, they both seemed to be on the same plane between Georgia and Tennessee.

It's kind of a bummer, finishing my ordering career this way. I almost went undefeated.:lol:

that really sucks.

I am in Australia and have ordered from all over the world for 12 years and never lost one but I am really sweating on this order of SC from VZ and my big Flavorjungle order. How can DHL and flavour concentrates? The world has gone mad and overrun by leftist dictators.

hope you get your Thelema. DNAs are expensive !

    Good morning. I woke up feeling like I didn’t sleep at all. I don’t know if it’s the time change or the vaccine. I had a little bit of a hard time falling asleep but went to bed on time. Weird dreams that I just remember as being stressful but don’t really remember details.


    Skeebo, I can’t believe you don’t have the Thelema yet. That’s crazy.

    No alarm to go off today, yet I'm up early anyway. I'm on my second cup of @markfm's delicious coffee. This morning I'll beat Fran to the punch. Have you any plans for the day?

    I was lucky enough to get some of his coffee once. It left me wanting more.

    He does make some good coffee doesn't he? I still have a little bit left from what he sent me a few months ago.

    That's what I thought. I get the idea that TFA kentucky bourbon is also too sweet. I'll keep that in mind. I didn't mean to spin off on booze flavors, but no reason you can't do a "butter rum" from scratch and also use those in a bakery/desert recipe.
    Yes, the Kentucky Rum is also too sweet for me.

    Morning, all.

    Do you folks generally buy PG or VG based nic? I've only ever purchased PG Nic.

    I mix heavy on the PG side, so get my nic in PG. Seems to me that what one wants in the final mix is the critical factor...

    Well it’s definitely Monday. I went downstairs to mix another 10ml bottle of jack the ripple because I’m just not sure how much I like it. I pulled out case number one about halfway through mixing and evidently I didn’t get one side snapped shut all the way last time I used it and about 20 flavors fell on the floor. I had to look up each flavor for that side on my list to put it back in the correct slot. What a pain.

    As I log new flavors into the spreadsheet, I also write the case/slot on the bottle. Makes life a lot easier!

    Plans... well, the monthly Costco run...

    No big plans. I have a recipe to finish. I also need to make some sort of list for my fav flavors and make sure I have backups. I need to go back to the ice cream discussion and make note of flavors I don’t have. I think there’s just one but not sure.

    Good morning random folks :) Have you any plans today?

    I am drinking coffee, copious amounts. I could not get to sleep last night. If I tried I just tossed and turned... I finally fell asleep about 6am.

    It's that time of year again! I palpated terrapins last night and two of them are full of eggs. I have to clean off out the office today and get the incubators ready.

    I emailed DHL's customer service this morning, life that's going to work. If I don't hear back from them by 1pm I'll call.

    I got an email from Chefs this morning that Wonder Flavors has 24 new flavors. I wonder if I order from them if I'll get some toothpaste with my order?

    I just noticed last night that BCF has a weekly deals page... I missed it all this time. They have flavors in the section that are 20% off... I can't believe that got by me.

    I just received a package today that took 23 days to get here from California. Tracking went blank for more than a week at a time. It arrived in Memphis twice in a five-day period. Then, someone apparently walked it to my town over the next several days. USPS is a mess right now in some parts of the country.

    We always used to get mail around 5 or 6. Now we randomly get it as early as 2.00. Apparently there are some large changes going on. New staffing rules and overtime restrictions and procedures and so forth.

    BCF order in house. I got my very first 2 oz bottle. It’s a nice size. The WF Smooth Cappuccino Cream is a very dark flavor.

    I just used that for the first time last night in a mix. It is a darky.. I hope it taste as good as it smells.
