@Skeebo I think that you've been told a few untruths with regard to this issue. I would challenge your source if I were you :). Were an equitable bunch here.....you know that really.

I'm hitting the hay shinies...this anemia is making me super tired all the time....see you in the morning :wub:

God i can remember buying 2 bags of Muji cotton from the store in Sydney, more than you'd probably need in a lifetime, and then vaping it and it tasted like a tramps socks, I threwit all out, luckily it was cheap as chips

Koh Gen Do was also big at the time, and about a hairs width between them in quality and taste

Whne i got tipped off about Rayon, that was me. I stupidly gave all mine to my Provari loving mate silka i think when i gave up vaping for a period, but i found a bag of Cotton Bacon in the back of a drawer, so thats what im currently using. Rayon is not easy to get here or order in, so next chance i get, thats where my money is going. I only vape outside of home, so its not really that big a deal to use CB until its all gone....
They don’t carry it in beauty supply stores there?

Some do, but theres an actual Muji store right in the heart of Sydney, cheaper from the source, than marked up at a reseller

Koh Gen Do is only in some beauty stores or vape shops

I have the (lifetime supply) box of 40ft cellu-cotton (rayon) from the beauty supply shop. It didn’t cost much.

When addressed in this manner, why should I? I said what I said very clearly. If you want to continue to call out my name do so via PM, otherwise you are simply proving my point. I am not interested in fighting the cabal and listening to the excuses for bullish behavior.

THANKYOUVERYMUCH!
You addressed us in a "manner", yet you take exception when that manner is returned...weird :rolleyes:
You want everybody to speak to you via PM to find out what you're on about?

You're White Knighting. Tilting at windmills to boot.

I don't really care what perceived injustice has your feathers ruffled but chill on the internet drama.

Man up and chat with whomever or whatever you need to in PM and preferably end the nonsense.

Or just go away if you prefer.

Pick one.

Be interested to see what you think of the Pulse 24. I bought mine when they first came out way back. It had really bad o ring tolerances - after a while I had to use plyers to remove the top cap. Same problem with the spare o rings
i had the same problem with my 24 back,when i was a cool kid and squonked.turned out for me a tank is less work.

    The price gouging is one of the ugly aspects of the coronapocalypse:
    4 x paper face masks and 2 x 500ml bottles of 70% ethanol cost me $79.95 at a pharmacy I've shopped at for 20 years.

    On the flip side, a local small tiime grocer sourced my mum a 20 kilo bag of rice, drove to pick it up and charged her what she paid for it.

    I'm making a point of trying to do one obviously nice thing in public once a day to hold a mirror up . It's mainly the older people who get it and give me a smile or make comment.

    Got some emails today from some kiwi stores about contactless courier vapemail deliveries. These guys won the prize however for the funniest email pic ;)

    I have the (lifetime supply) box of 40ft cellu-cotton (rayon) from the beauty supply shop. It didn’t cost much.

    everywhere I read they say one box of rayon lasts a “lifetime”. I just ordered box #2 and #3. The 1st box lasted just over 2 years. Not sure why I’m going thru so much more rayon than others maybe because I have so many tanks in rotation? I dunno. I feel like I must be doing something wrong but my Vape’s appear and feel fine. So I’ll just keep doing whatever it is I’m doing.

    thanks_ so the usual suspects. squeeze is purty tempting, but as i take topside is better and, with the offer i got, a bit cheaper...

    my impression is that the topside is also the best dual_ no? i was actually looking at it today, thinking abt it as a would be second someitme, then i got caught... shinying is getting tougher now that we're under one roof full time.
    errm.. speaking of which, guys, if a post of mine sounds weird_ i mean weirder than usu,,, or weird compared to usual-so if i start sounding normal, my laptop may have been hijacked by the crazy german gardening knitter

    oh and they were out of toilet paper here today.. i'm finding this a really odd priority

    I think the topside dual is the best dual battery bf mod. But I really have no idea, as I don't even have a single topside - hopefully someone will pipe up if it is crap :D

    And you need to introduce your crazy German gardening knitter to @DeloresRose - our crazy American gardening knitter ;)

    I feel kind of left out... I don’t have an ignore list (although I may be on a few, I suppose). I just skip over what I don’t want to read. I’m not going to agree with everyone else, nor they with me. No skin off my back to just pass over their posts.

    Does anyone know of a fix for DT condensation on the dotaio? It’s not a lot, and I’ve seen others mention it. I assume it’s from using a different dt than the supplied ones ?

    feck it - I think this is my 5th reply catching up. Sorry for the ANGE SPAM :p

    No one on my ignore list either :cry:

    and some ppl have said it helps condensation in an atty if you use a drip tip with a bore larger than the bore of the chimney. Correct me if I'm wrong @JustWondering1 :wub:

    But aren't you on another thread talking smack about people on this thread and calling us unaccountable. Speak up man and direct things where they go and allow it to be hammered out. The DRAMA is crazy. Supposedly Anna left and then everyone begged her to come back and you felt the need to call us all bullies.

    I got a 40' box 3 years ago and it has about 1/4 left in it. Lasting a bit longer than yours but definitely not a lifetime supply. I cut pieces longer than I need to and divide them in two. Could probably get three out of each piece but why be frugal with it. Quite a lot of wastage as well. I thin them too much, or the grain goes sideways and they fall apart.

    I’m in, as long as there’s pickles at the end of the tour!!!
    Plus, you know my deep love for provaris ;)
    Lacto-fermented pickles are ready in three days in August/September; in cooler temperatures, a few days longer. Plan accordingly.

    Buyer beware:
    I just tried to buy a few things off the classified and after sending payment the buyer came back and said "Paypal put the money on hold"
    I called Paypal and they said it is due to buyer protection. If the seller wants to ship the product and give tracking then pymt goes through. I reiterated this to the seller and then the sellers classy thread was closed. hmmmm

    I have the (lifetime supply) box of 40ft cellu-cotton (rayon) from the beauty supply shop. It didn’t cost much.

    It costs a small fortune to get shipped into Australia (not stocked here at all), though once in a rare while we could get a box into Australia for less than the price of a small home. I got mine during once such window, but alas passed it on when i stopped vaping for a while.

    Rayon of any form is hard to get here, which is why if you look at my home forum and go back n time, you'll see that quite a lot of us had to pull tampons apart if we wanted to try rayon...and then only certain brands and types...and let me tell you, nothing confuses a female in the personal toiletries section of the supermarket than a man reading a tampon box intently....

    goodbye
    I pm'd Anna when she said she was leaving, and asked her why. She did not blame or accuse anyone in the shiny thread. She did tell me the reason, but I do not feel at liberty to share her answer. I don't know what skeebo is going on about, but I do know straight from Anna's mouth, that it wasn't any of the members in the shiny thread.
