OK so im beyond frustrated i ordered 2 disposable 510s to try it out then i mad a usb pass through so i could use both my computer and my disposable on the road since they have a short life it would last me longer to save up for a real 510 when i get the time. Anyways i ordered my 1st one on monday night so that leaves tue-today(sat) for it to get here on wed i ordered a second one from another company because the first company wasn't answering me at all and i wanted to make sure i had at least one by Saturday with that being said neither one of them are here so im getting a little frustrated with all this. And being that i havent even tried them yet its starting out really bad ive been doing my best to hold back on smokes so that i could save for a better one figuring i could get by with 2 disposables but when a whole week goes by whats a guy to do. Sorry if this doesnt belong here kinda needed a venting area to be heard.

I understand how frustrated you must be. I really cannot sit here and tell you not to smoke an analog as I would be if I didnt have my ecig. Do what you have to do until your PV gets here. You are on your way to a life changing event and until it gets here you need to keep your sanity.
Good luck. I am looking forward to seeing your post about your first ecig experience.

Believe me, I understand your frustrations. My first kit purchase was a mistake. I bought two Mini kits, one for me and one for my husband. Both of us had a defective battery so we had to send them back. That left us each with only one battery. The recharge time for the batteries on the kind we bought is about 4 hours and we only get about an hour to an hour and a half of vape time out of them. It took just over a week for us to get it all sorted out and get the replacement batteries. We had a choice, either buy analogs to smoke between vaping or kill each other. The first option was the one we took and even though we didn't want to be smoking still, it seems it was the best choice for us. At least our kids think so anyway.

If you have to resort to buying some analogs to get you through, do it. Don't beat yourself up over it. We all want to save money and quit the nasty habit of smoking but sometimes that's just not an option when starting out with vaping. Hang in there because it does get so much better!!!

thanks Needless to say im not ordering anything ever again from the MMV The guy never responds to any emails and i had to track down his number to even get a hold of him then he sends it with the cheapest possible snail mail he can then says its the mail and i get blamed for it NO its you trying to cut corners to save money. i talked to the post office and they said for 50 more cents then what he paid which was well within the price i paid him for shipping it would of been to me on Friday.

I'm going to be ordering an eGo when hubby gets paid. I made that decision a couple of weeks ago and have been counting down the weeks/days until he gets paid. I can't for the life of me figure out how to make time go by faster, but if I ever figure that out I'll be sure to post it for all the vaping junkies here!

You're welcome for the support. I know how hard it is when the USPS doesn't work the way we want them to.

LOL, Thanks speaking of which it just kills me to sit here waiting for it especially when im reading all about them on here the mods and everything. I have a hard time sleeping as is so the last week has been complete He** if you know what i mean. I'm up at 9am then back in bed at 5am the next day just kills you when waiting for something your so excited about!!!! Good luck with getting your ego hope everything goes well with it

I really hate to read these types of stories, and I would be willing to bet, that most first orders, unless people ordered from suppliers discussed here on ECF, turn out this way. A lot of shady suppliers enter a market when it is relatively new And take advantage of many peoples lack of knowledge and trusting natures. I have ordered for about 10-12 different suppliers that I encountered here on ECF, and have had no bad experiences. I have now narrowed my list of suppliers to about 6 that I buy from all the time. Hang in there, keeping reading ECF, and things will be fine, and you'll be happy that you stuck it out.

When I was waiting for my first kit, I was so anxious that I upped my analog count BIG TIME! LOL So, yes, I know the he** you're going through. I know it's not easy but do your best to keep your mind off it and hopefully 3 pm Monday won't take too long to get here!

It sucks for me because the houses across the street get their mail about an hour before I get mine. So when I know I have a package coming and I see that truck hitting up the houses across the street, I want to run out there and force them to look and see if they have my package. I don't though, I just sit here waiting "patiently" (HA! Yeah right)! LOL

Thanks Banjo i appreciate that well my second order came from madvapes they told me it could be sat or monday which is right and they dont have control over the usps crap but whats really going to be messed up is if they both arrive on the same day being that they came from the same state but was ordered 2 days later then the first one

PS... JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS
I am no way shape or forum cutting MadVapes they have excellent service from my experience so far and dont want them to be drug down with this other company
