Ordered on Jan 8. Wasn't in a hurry, so didn't really bother to follow up until Feb 1, when i thought it was getting ridiculous. The dude answering the phone said that my order is actually being prepared to ship right now ( after reading this thread, i now believe he was lying, and that they expedite the orders of the people who call to complain. ). Anyhow order was shipped on the 2nd and received on the 4th, only half the order was missing. I called the company and they said they will send the rest. Neither time that i called were they apologetic or anything, just acted as if business as usual.
Just received the order that was sent out on the 4th and to my surprise they shipped the entire order minus one flavor again, and not just the missing bottles.
Now as far as the juice itself, i haven't tried yet and they are being steeped. I was a little put off by the artificial coloring, but realistically we eat arttificial coloring in our food too. I know this is being vaporized, but before
vaping, i don't believe anyone had ingested vaporized propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine either. We are all engaging in somewhat risky behavior and inhaling material that hasn't been scientifically tested for safety and purchasing stuff from a new unregulated industry, where even the most reputed company isn't more than a few years old.
That said, i am still debating whether to test the dark blue and bright red juices. They just look weird. The juices smell pretty god overall i must say. I don't even know what the role of the artificial colors are. Do they have a flavor profile ? Does the vendor think it makes the liquid look cool ? Are they used to achieve consistency in color, because otherwise their juices aren't ? Just don't know.
I don't believe they are scam artists, just over their heads. There seems to be very little quality control and managerial oversight going on. Some of the bottles i received were overflowing with liquid, and some where barely two thirds full. Clearly there was a rush job going on here, and the bottles were being filled by minimum wage hourly workers who don't give a s#*t.
Pretty new to the vapor joe site, but my opinion of him has really plummeted and although i don't know for a fact i wouldn't be surprised if he is making money on this and similar deals, he has been pimping. Nothing else makes sense.
If anyone has an opinion on the safety of inhaling artificial colors and why it would be different from eating or drinking it, please respond to this thread.
