These two kept photobombing me today. But they stayed still long enough for me to practice my wildlife photography

They're two out of a group of 5, 18monthyo. We got them as weaned calves, but even so they still friendly and way too nosey!

Has anyone ever received a product sent from China through UPS? If so did the tracking show that the sender had purchased the label but they did not have the product yet up until it got to the USA. I'm curious because I'm used to ground shipping being relatively quick with UPS or at least quick to process it into the system or pick it up or whatever they do and scan it today was the estimated delivery day but it still hasn't been picked up by the UPS according to UPS So I'm just wondering if maybe that means it's coming from China

I've had companies in China create a UPS label, but it's shipped from China through their own carrier till it reaches the US. Once it clears customs it seemed that the package went to a destination and then UPS took over.

I think I'm just cursed as far as this package goes lol when I look up the tracking number on China Post just to see what it says it says that it's a USA to USA delivery so maybe UPS is just not updating their information again lol

Quick pop in to say hi

Got some vapemail for review purposes yesterday morning but i am so let down i am not going to even post a pic.

I got the Wismec Reuleaux RX G Kit...
I thoroughly wash my new tanks,like i mean really...first coil i let it sit for 30 minutes,i only puffed 10 times then i had to take it out.
I was getting an awful i mean awful chemical like taste,oh well i thought i might not have been as thorough as i thought when cleaning the tank so i went to town on it (used some vodka as well this second time)
Once the tank was clean (again....) i thought i would try the second coil that comes with the kit....and same result.
A bit less powerful than the first coil but yeah still a chemical like flavor to it,tried 12 or 15 puffs then just put it away,don't know what it was but i ain't risking it.

Mod wise meh...will post a review tomorrow if i got time,will be a short review thou...couldn't properly try the tank so yeah,total bust.

Hopefully on Monday i will get my Vandy Vape Kylin M Pro RTA,never tried mesh so i am eager to give that one a try.

Well anyway,hope you all have a good weekend

Yes, I’ve had several review samples like that where it just says label created for several days before it shows any movement.

I have had tanks before where I’ve had to clean them a few times before the bad taste went away but not recently. I’d check the tank really well and make sure there isn’t a piece of metal or residue stuck somewhere.

Awesome I'm glad to hear it. I was wondering like who are they utilizing within the United States as a Chinese company when there was no partnership in the contest with any particular website. Thank you

Not a huge fan of gold usually but when it's partnered with red or purple it looks fantastic that is very sharp

This is the maxis that I won in December lol. About a week ago they decided that they would resend it this time through UPS and gave me a tracking number on the 7th and it's presently showing that the label has been made but that UPS doesn't have the package since then. Which is unusually long in my experience for UPS to not even scan something in if it's coming from within the country. But yeah basically December I think it was December maybe early January but definitely around then.

The estimate for the delivery was yesterday on the app based on the averages that it usually takes them but that's assuming that it was in the USA which I'm thinking its not in which case I'm not worried at all

So when the Brunhilde MTL first came out I missed it I for whatever reason didn't want it even though I thought that it looked like a configuration that I would enjoy I usually like when they have the stainless steel cables as the wicking method and I like RDTAs when they have that. I finally found one in the classifieds of a different forum and I picked it up in gold which isn't my favorite choice but it's okay. I love this thing more than I even thought I could. I have an e-juice that is one of two that I use that I enjoy and usually it's only good in sub ohm tanks it's not good in rebuildables and I don't really know why. It's the only juice that I've ever found to be better with commercial coils. It's not a building thing because every other juice I have I prefer in built coils not commercial. But this little top coiler jammy is fantastic with that juice. I am so happy with this tank. Like I feel like I have missed out for years and it's so convenient to refill. It doesn't leak from the fillport or the airflow when you tip it over either which is something that I've never experienced with an RDTA. I didn't get the short drip tip with it and I don't like the long drip tip at all but man I love this tank
