There's no question in my mind now that when you're buying a few things at a time, equipment prices from US suppliers can be very competitive. Things get crazy when you start buying lots of stuff, but when you think about it that's pretty much the case with everything.

We buy a coke from a convenience store for $1.50 when we're out and about but when it's time to stock up for the house we head to the warehouse club and get a flat of cokes, a gross of tube socks and for reasons I have yet to understand, a shipping container of garden gnomes.

That's right! I keep forgetting about that huge 25% off coupon.

your us folks seem to be lucky then to have such moderate vendors. in your case your math ex. is clear to me. but here's my math: i purchase the 510 kit+pcc at a vendor in europe (because i live there), so i pay $110 there and from Ruyan (where of course I purchased it) the same thing (incl.shipment) $64.40. Perhaps this does not belong here to be posted but unfortunately in other forums there is not much written about Wayne that is why I was so glad to find it here and i thought perhaps its of anyones interest. thanks for reading

I guess I didn't specify that I wasn't willing to wait up to 40 days for my package from China. The regular China Post is much less expensive and if I could wait up to 40 days, I would use it. I have ordered lots of items direct from Chinese suppliers and it is substantially longer time to receive some things if not using a service like EMS. At least, that's been my own experience. I'm sure heaven-gifts is a great supplier. I'm just not willing to wait for my little orders to arrive. The costs I was originally quoting included the approximate $15 shipping.

Perhaps China Post is faster to EU? Certainly to AU! They're right near each other. Does anyone stateside use the China Post method? How did it work out? My concern would be with customs, etc. also. Especially right now..

I agree that Ruyandirect have great customer service. I ordered two e-cig starter kits with some accessories from them a couple of days ago, in two separate orders. One I had shipped directly to my sis as it is her b-day gift, when they saw that the shipping addy was different from the billing one they e-mailed me to make sure that it was the correct address to send it to.
