Oh,but.. I just thought of this... I might've done something good for all of us...got the ole hearts pumping stronger.... I know mine was...that's good right?:blink:


:lol:



Now that's unbelievable! I ordered a second O16 from Vapinart (because I always like to get pairs of attys, if it's something I like). I ordered it yesterday afternoon, probably around 3:00PM and shipped via FedEx. It arrived this morning around 11:30AM.
22 hours, and it's already built and vaping.


wow !

I consider you lucky, FedEx is the worst shipping company I have ever dealt with. Numerous times, they've been late and even misdelivered packages. This last time, I was screaming at them on the phone intensely, and I never do that. We ordered a (desperately needed) printer for work and paid for 2 day shipping. 5 days later it was 45 minutes away and the tracking literally said "no scheduled delivery date" (this was AFTER the fools in TN delayed it by 3 days). I called and they said "Sir, we are not sure what kind of business you are, or what your hours are, or if there is a dog."

Queue Sloth screaming and cursing at the fools here.
The package arrived 2 hours later. :D

ETA yes there is a dog and he attacks late delivery drivers. :w00t:

It's 20 degrees & still snowing, so instead of using your AWD Subaru to go shopping, you get on the internet & expect an outfit from Tennessee to bring your packages promptly in their panel truck?

You're in the Adirondacks & cannot expect the quality of service provided to Nome, Alaska when they needed medicine by dogsled. Those days are long ago.

We are a business, and paid 60 bucks for 2 day shipping. You cannot expect me to believe it could not have made it. The roads are not bad at all. It was delayed because of stupidity and laziness on the part of FedEx.

How about the time they misdelivered strong medical supplies intended for Chrissy (an EMT). They left then on the doorstep of a cabin with children inside that could have theoretically killed themselves with said supplies instead of bringing them where they were supposed to. You can defend them on that?

No, I have a serious issue with FedEx. The last situation I mentioned was terrible. Not to mention the medical supplies were late. The number of times I've called and yelled at FedEx on behalf of my job is staggering. :facepalm:

UPS has a decent track record with us but they sometimes throw packages in random places and we find them a day later.

USPS is the best of the three by far. At worst they are a day late.

The ADKs aren't remote at all. Usually packages arrive quickly and on time here.

For a company like FedEx to charge $60 for 2day shipping, then delay it by 3, then refuse to call us when they "don't know what our hours are/if there is a dog," I mean, that's preposterous.

We did get a refund though. :D

Loading up my first REO with some ACB from the last shipment of NT I'll ever get. REOs changed my entire vaping experience. Happy I had a chance to enjoy NT before it disappeared!
Glad you're enjoying your REO....and such a shame Nickoticket is closing.

Glad you're enjoying your REO. They changed my entire vaping experience too. I have a shelf full of various tube mods that I haven't touched since my first REO 2 1/2 years ago.

Re: never-smokers vaping.

i know a couple that took up vaping just because it looks cool and i make liquid for some of them too. One uses no nic at all, and another 3mg. They are over 18 as it happens. i was not over 18 when i started smoking.

On the basis that harm runs as follows:

fresh alpine air < vaping < smoking tobacco

You can see that until i'm using alpine air liquid, i'd have no objection to anyone vaping regardless of their age if it meant they didn't smoke. i'm bored to tears hearing about ' gateway to smoking ' nonsense, because all the evidence i have seen shows that teens and young adults use vaping in exactly the same way we did - it's a gateway alright - but away from smoking.

Perhaps more government effort ought to be put into reducing the likelihood of ...... overdose say, from which 50,000 Americans died last year and don't sweat the small stuff.
