I did that yesterday...still no reply

anybody tried a website called vaporforce? http://vaporforce.pinnaclecart.com/index.php?p=home

it says it specializes in providing electronic cigarettes for the military, but caters for civilians too and does international shipping through USPS. Its prices seem reasonable..but it doesn't seem like it's a well-designed and well-made site.

They are a great store. They sell the Stealth, a special version of the Provari (and they have some regular ones too). The owner is a great guy. If you can't order from ProVape (give them a day or two to get back to you, they may have to look into things for a special request), VaporForce is an excellent dealer.
 
Hi Tamer El-Meehy. I hope you received a response through the website, but I would be happy to help. If your country is not in the dropdown menu of available countries, unfortunately we cannot accept credit card orders from your country at this time, although we can ship to you by accepting alternative methods. If you would like to PM me, I can give you more info :)

Thank you Jennifer and Ozwakl...I received an email from Provape indicating that they can't accept credit cards from Egypt at this point in time..but I managed to place an order through Vaporforce..they have very good prices compared to other retailers and it seems they are really good. I ordered a regular 2.5 and they processed it immediately. So guess I have to wait and pray that it goes through the Egyptian customs. On the one hand they might not understand what this strange gizmo is for...I mean let's face it..our gear doesn't look innocent at all..and having a store that caters primarily to US military personnel send this suspicious looking device to Egypt can be risky at this point in time, especially with all the terrorist attacks we're witnessing. :)

He doesn't cater to military/LEO's more than civilians, although his Stealth series have those guys in mind. The story as I remember hearing it is he & his wife help counsel those with PTSD. There's at least 1 or 2 folks on the ProVari forum who have spoke with him at length on the phone & know more of the background than I do. Sorry that ProVape didn't get back to you right away... stuff happens sometimes. Jennifer is 7 gallons of awesome in a 5 gallon bucket ;) I bought my regular Provari through them, but my Stealth came from VaporForce (since he's the only one doing that version). If I buy a 3rd one, which is a pretty good possibility, I'll probably get another Stealth - the cause is good, the black caps are cool & I absolutely love the darker screen.

Ozwald is spot on about VaporForce other than a couple of other vendors can now supply 'his" Stealth lines as well. He is tied to ProVape and involved in some of the happenings there. Four of my five ProVari's came from Dr. Tim, three of them blacked out in tribute to the LEO/first response/military folks that he has dedicated his life to helping. The proceeds from the Stealth's help finance his work with them that Oz refered to. We became fast friends right from the start, have talked for hours on the phone many times and remain in constant contact via email as well. He will go the extra mile for you (for anybody). Egyptian customs I don't know anything about, but US Custom can be bad as well sometimes. Well remember a package from Israel a while back that left there without issues and was held up in US Customs for a couple of weeks.

so that's why the website is not as lavish as others!...He's trying to keep low overheads and be more competitive. I respect the mentality and the approach of running a business operation to support a good cause...I work with development assistance agencies and projects and we always try to support social enterprises and good corporate social responsibility practices. The business model he's operating is both fascinating and respectable..I would love to learn more about it. But why isn't he registered as a supplier on the forum? He needs better publicity to expand his operations.

You answered your own question. Being a registered supplier costs money. A rather large sum of money for a small business with no advertising budget.
 
awwww..... thanks Oz!! ;)

I am a new vaper. Just got a new Provari and love it.

I'm also a retired LEO.

I had no knowledge of the Stealth or VaporForce until reading this thread.

I plan to get another Provari for keeping at work. It's going to be a Stealth.

Thanks for all this information.

You'll love it. Besides the proceeds helping to fund a good cause, it's a really cool looking mod.
