I'm order 352, placed 1/8, still "awaiting fulfillment." I don't know if any of my measly 3 bottles are waiting on ingredients or not, where was it mentioned which ingredients they were out of?
If they are out of stock on something, I have no problems with them filling orders placed after mine, but I don't disagree with this apparent "squeaky wheel gets the grease" approach. I'm sure that after a while all of the wheels will be squeaking.
I've got about $7.50 invested in this trial, so not the end of the world either way, and it is cheap experience if you know what I mean. The guy has been fairly quick to respond to facebook messages, and at first emails too, but hey, I wasn't wanting a penpal, I was wanting some ejuice.

I vote for that! You could be our posse of one.
Seriously, a lot of us would appreciate you stopping in and reporting back here what you thought of them.
I'll bet we could collect you a few Paypal bucks for your gas money - if it is a sizeable trip.

Ordered on 1/8 as well. Had 1 juice awaiting ingredients but, email stated these orders would go out Tuesday 1/28, no shipping confirmation as of today. Briefly on chat yesterday stated that still awaiting ingredients. I don't know what to think. Placed a fasttech order 1/13, already hit the states and will be here before this juice...damn! VJ is not new, should have seen this coming so, there's really no excuse if you asked me. Daily updates on their site or FB page would help them ease their customers worries a bit anyway.
Wow! My thread is up to 7 pages...I posted the same thread in another sub forum, wonder how long that one is now. Too bad it's so long due to people NOT getting what they paid for. This is very unfortunate.
I'll be thinking twice next time I see vapor joe pimping a new juice company.
Yes!! Please please do stop by, check it out. I'm sure I can speak for many when I say it would be incredibly appreciated. Thank you!
...And I still have no order, email, response, update, progress on order....nothing! The vapor company = FAIL!
I have to say, it wasn't too wise on this company's part to do this, they really messed up a GOLDEN marketing opportunity. Too bad.

Well I have proof of life... for better or worse, my juice arrived yesterday. So far, not too impressed.. but for the price cant complain too much.
Couple notes...
1) two of the 15 bottles were only about 60% full. (NOT happy about this part)
2) they all still have a freshly mixed smell to them. So the comment earlier in this thread where the owner told the poster that they steep all their liquids 2 weeks before shipping doesn't sound accurate to me.
My order was 1041 and none of items were in the "waiting for ingredients" list. I think this really is a case of the squeaky wheel, since I had sent a couple emails once it hit the 10+ day mark (none of which were answered), as well as contacting them via their website chat function.
Threw them all in my ultrasonic cleaner to speed the steep, and hopefully after a couple days (week) of sitting, they will turn into something... well.... decent.

I hate to think about missing such a great sale, and yes it's still on sale. but man I don't think it's worth the wait or frustration. plus if it aint even that great of product and not a completely full bottle I'm just to leery too try it. Maybe later if it's still available I'll give it a try but not today
FINALLY got my order today OMG am I really upset here's why:
1) I placed my order on Jan 6 I know they got slammed and I expected a longer wait time then usual. however 26 days?!?! that's just well seriously ridiculous.
2) I called Monday (jan 27) and spoke to some gal who was pissy on the phone and said oh I will make sure your order goes out today.
3) In an email I received dated jan 16 it said my order had already shipped.....WHAT GIVES???
4) The liquid came and all the bottles are way less then full ( I guess for 1.99 you get what you pay for)
5) Every single juice has a color. now I understand that juice colors but they are OBVIOUSLY using artificial coloring (one is red/another dark blue last one dark brown)and they are NOT telling anyone that. Some people are allergic to dyes and cannot use them they do not tell you on their website or ANY labeling either. Every juice vendor except for 1 other tells you what the ingredients are. I always want to know what I am vaping into my LUNGs and artificial dyes are not one of them
6) I called the copany to ask them about the coloring. the girl I spoke with was flippent and nasty said hold on and gave me to "Tim" who I could hear in the back before he took my call yelling about how customers are bothering him....LOL...Then I ask him and he is a terribly JERK on the phone and says "you don't eat things with artificial coloring?" I was like that isn't the point there are certain items I do not eat because I am sensitive to or I at least read a label and I know what's in it. He also complained that with everyone calling 24/7 asking where their order is it takes away from him making juices. Well DUD you are in business get over it. Then he continues well it's not like I have a million dollar company. UHH DUDE so what your business is a dime a dozen I am a consumer and I have the RIGHT to call and ask questions. I then asked to speak to the owner and he said he was....WOAH!! AN owner...wow...uhh...
I can say I am throwing the juice out because I won't vape or give anyone something with a dye in it that will be taken into your lungs period. Dyes are not meant to be inhaled this is the kind of GARBAGE honest companies are fighting against. SHAME ON THE VAPOR COMPANY shame on TIM and if this is how he treats his clientele he won't be in business for too long.
BTW my order # was 425 so if you are before that and don't have yours yet I would cancel your CC payment I am currently talking to mine

Maybe I am over thinking it but I would test the nic levels to make sure you are getting something safe. The mention of poor employees that have since been fired and the fact that your bottles are not full bring concern. What if the person just added a standard X amount of 100mg Nic into an already short bottle. Or worse.
My order did not ship on the day they promised on the phone. Its the walking dead snowpocalypse here in Atlanta and worse farther north so they may have not gotten the ingredients they were waiting for.

I'm still waiting for mine. Apparently it'll be here tomorrow. I was also worried about the quality when I heard they hired 10 new people and fired others. Is there a way to test nic levels? Needless to say I will never order from them again. I understand that a sale like that will have a lot of orders and some backlog. However, the way they handled the whole situation was pathetic.
I got the instructions on Eliquidtest_com but I admit I got the chemicals locally instead of purchasing their reasonably priced kit. The DIY forum may have other methods.
i ordered some of this juice, and it came in yesterday. i ordered on the 24th, so no problems with shipping or wait time for me, my order was in the 1700s though. let me say that the flavor is great, it is better than other watermelons that i have tried. though i think it is a little upsetting that most people offering up their opinions here are saying their bottles are half full too, as these bottles are 12.5ml bottles. please make sure you have a 12.5ml to compare it with to be sure that you arent under the assumption that you were shipped a 10ml bottle. their watermelon is great and with a few drops of honeydew mixed in its great on top of great. i'll most likely order more of this too when i have more scratch, i have some uncle junks on the way and i might use this to stretch it out. great stuff from the vapor company, thanks to tim and everybody over there!

Friend just got his order & very disapointed. He thinks this guy is gonna hit & run with customers, scam artist. He cant even reach customer service to ask bout his 10 ML bottle filled half way only. All 3 different flavor tasted the same with different throat hit.
Opening a new business where you have to make stuff to order, then starting off with fire sale prices, little to no additional help, and apparently very little inventory is a recipe for disaster....and probably the only recipe this vendor got right...lol.
I think he actually WANTS this to be a legit business or he wouldn't have sent anything out, but based on his performance, and his obvious frustrations, I doubt he will last long and it may end up as an unintentional scam.
This is why I prefer to order from established vendors such as Mt Baker Vapor.
It looks like a decent website, I think he might be trying but is just failing horribly.

On a related note, this is why some sites shut down when they start to get backlogged. Gives them time to catch up. Yet people gripe about that too.
