To all e-liquid/e-cig stores worldwide: Don't accept any of my orders until further notice!

[AndriaD]

say what?
Hm... I spent 5 Euro a day on cigarettes (one big pack, discount store). That makes 3650 Euro in 2 years.
There is no way in hell that I have spent that amount of money on vaping supplies. Even though I have a considerate supply of vaping hardware, liquids and DIY stuff.
Never ever....

What on earth are you purchasing?

I'm with you, Anja... no way have I spent as much on vaping as I did on cigarettes -- because my husband has been able to start buying coins again for his collection, and that stuff ain't exactly cheap, though he looks for, and finds, really excellent deals -- just as I do with vaping!

Speaking of which... I found the most amazing price on an eFest Luc v2 charger, the kind with the digital readout so you can actually see a battery's voltage... $25.94 on eBay and free expedited shipping! Since I got my lil Fallen Angel, I've been noticing that I really need a voltage checker like this, so I scooped that up this morning! It's also got a car charger, so you can plug the 2-bay device in, in the car or truck. I was really pleased to find this, at such a great price.

I won't be buying any new mods anytime soon, though. After I got (FINALLY!) my new Vamo v2, I took a Family Picture. I think the shinyitis bug has run its course... for now.

Yeah I have an intellicharger i4... but about to get 2 more 18350s, once the usps gets off their lazy butts and delivers it, so I figured that with 10 batteries, 2 more charge bays would be a really good thing -- and it has that car-charger connection, which is excellent!

I ordered some more driptips too, from desertvapes.com, they have the best driptips for the best price... and another short cone, since I've started using plain cartos again, for flavors I'm trying out but not sure about, dunno if I wanna put 'em in a tank. I got halo's Voodoo the other day, but I dunno... to me it tastes dark, kinda sour... it needs to be sweeter. I was thinking about just adding maybe 25% of it to some Vanilla, maybe that would make it sweet enough.

I decided to not get myself verified. Fewer temptations.

Meniere: I've chosen this forum as it would be harder to buy in the classifieds as I'm not in the the US lol.

Andria: I think you did get a good deal and the LuK has greater charging power than the other brands.

67Tele: nice mod. I like sigelei very much myself.

I thought it was because your English is better than your Portuguese or Spanish. I had to buy cartos for my tanks last night. The ones I bought from FT don't work. Next optional purchase has been pushed to October.

Hi

As the title says... enough is enough... I dropped my tobacco addiction and replaced it with vaping... Nahh. Not vaping... shopping! Thats right! I'm a damm shoppaholic now. I just can't stop buying stuff. I have enough material and liquid to get through 2014 without needing any more material so please, if you see another order of mine please ignore it, I have a disease

Am I the only one around? Jeez... this is killing my wallet!

Sorry to let off a little steam

Regards
Tony

PS: Can't write more, I have to complete an order I'm making for some extra dual coil atomizers. Be right back

LOL! Sould we start a therapy group? VSSA (Vaping Stuff Shoppers Anonimous).

Meniere : I doubt it. Unfortunately, English is only my fifth language

ForeverDiving: don't know, it would be one crowded group wouldn't it?

Please sign me up ... I have said twice in this last month I am not buying anymore .... and well ... I swear i am not ordering ANYTHING for at least 8 hours!

 

[tchavei]

8 hours? That's great... My wallet burns constantly lol. Just today I told my wife, don't you want to go grab an ice cream? To which she replied : because you want to check out the vaping store next door or because you really want an ice cream? Busted... Again... Arg that woman knows me better then myself lol.

This is just a side-conversation.

Well I was going to buy another 120ml of nicotine from Wiz Labs today, and I got a very unpleasant surprise. I logged into my bank account, just to see if all my figures were still in agreement with stuff that's actually posted... and I discovered a 49.98 charge *that I did not make.* So I called my bank, and they can't do anything till it actually goes off 'pending' status and posts, THEN they can "open a dispute." There's a phone number shown on the entry, and I looked it up in google, and it's associated with some kind of internet scam and a holding company that "consults" to companies opening a "virtual business." So I had to cancel my debit card and have them send me a new one, which I should have in 5 or 6 days, and tomorrow I get to talk to them again to "open a dispute" about this charge I didn't make.

After all that, I just had to take a nap. I guess I need to buy one of those reloadable debit cards so I don't have to use my actual bank acct debit card to buy stuff online, and that just IRKS THE HELL OUT OF ME!!!!

[tchavei]

Why don't you use one time credit cards?
I admit that sometimes I get bored and don't use them myself but they come really handy especially when I buy from a store for the first time.

Never had to dispute anything when somebody cloned a card of mine. The banks somehow detect it, cancel the card, call me warning me my credit card has been cloned and that a new one is on its way and that the credit has been refunded.

Your story is kinda scary. I hardly check my bank statements :S
(kinda stupid I know but I hate actually knowing what I spend on useless stuff...)

 

[tchavei]

Buy a debit card? Things are different here. We have a system where you can generate one time use credit cards with any amount you want (say 100) and then you use the card for a buy (say 92.75). The bank will debit 92.75 and a second later cancel the card.

I've heard of that, I think I do have that option with my actual credit card, thru Bank of America, but our main bank acct is with a smaller bank; they handled our truck financing so they offered us free checking, and we've been very pleased with them. But yeah, you can buy reloadable debit cards; I suppose just for this reason, so you don't have to use your actual bank card online to buy things. Like using a "burner" phone instead of your own cellphone, so you can't be "tracked." Using one of those cards would actually be helpful, so that any money I loaded to it, I'd know was fine to use for buying vape stuff or anything else that wasn't one of the regular essentials.

I've never had a single problem till now, but I did make that purchase of the Vamo V2 from a chinese company, so who knows. I've never worried about it with e5cigs, they're part of ChinaBuye, but I really know nothing at all about VaporBreak.

Andria

 

[tchavei]

If it was cloned, it might not have been the Chinese company. Mine was used in France and I didn't do any shipping there nor was I there with that card anyway.
What matters is that you noticed it. Everything should be ok sooner or later.

Ps : evic supreme has arrived. Will post first impressions tonight.

My bank doesn't accept any international charges unless you are physically there. You have to work through paypal or some other intermediary. Basically because most of those fraudulent charges are international.

I had a very aggravating problem with trying to use my debit card to send money to my son via Western Union -- now I just get the cash to send via WU rather than trying to use the debit card, it's not worth the headache and frustration.

Actually the transaction with VaporBreak *may* have been via PayPal. Hmm. They've always been the epitome of trustworthy, as I far as I know. Considering how much I use my card online, I guess it could have been literally anywhere.
