US Vape Mail Ban - USPS/FedEx/UPS/DHL

[UncLeJunkLe]

What does "RS" stand for?
Do they still ship liquid nicotine and flavors?
Is Central Vapors a reliable company to buy from, on line?
They claim they can still send nicotine and flavors via mail or an other shipping company.
Thanks.

RS is riversupplyco.com
They no longer sell nicotine to consumers. They are soon to stop selling even flavors to consumers. You can check their site to see what flavors they ahve left if you want to buy some cheap flavors.

See this link for a list of nic sellers still shipping.

I don't know anything about CentralVapors nicotine except that it's on the expensive side.

Decided to try Elementvape with an order an hour ago. I've ordered with them in the past, so as a company I'm confident with them.

Noticed when I was checking out there was 2 shipping options.

$8 for 3-12 days or free for 5-15 days shipping, I went with the $8 option personally. Here's to hoping I'm included in the USPS shipping they're trying to do again. Guess I'll find out tomorrow or whenever it's processed and get a tracking number.

My third FT order made it off the slow boat from China and landed in the good ole USA yesterday. It blew through customs and is already in Ft. Worth. I should get it tomorrow. Moral of the story, if you are going to pay anything for shipping, upgrade to the 4.95 option. Otherwise, save your 95 cents or whatever and pick the free China Post. It gets here just as fast, if not faster.

Has anyone else noticed how much of Fast Tech's product list (at least for ecigs) are not in stock? I have 17 items on my wish list, and only 2 are in stock. They just keep moving the days forward for all the rest. Two months ago, all those items were in stock. I just hadn't made a final decision on whether to order them or not. And the new items list they show every day is about half as big as it once was. Something is definitely going on at Fast Tech.

I like Picos too, but you should try the Eleaf Aster, 75 W, drop them over and over and they keep running, smaller base but I got stocked up on them, can subohm or other very versatile.

A Pico 75W has been in my hands every day for years now. I vape at 10W and don't subohm, so I'll just dance with the one that "brung" me. I also have a significant stock of other mods I've tried over the years. Most all have been reliable, and suitable for my MTL vaping style.

They're not paying our politicians enough. They need to get with the program!

You're lucky. I see something shiny, vapey, and new, and I'm like "I want THAT!", regardless of if I need it or could even use it.

My order from Direct Vapor just arrived (signature required) I was literally checking the tracking when it came (BTW still didn't show anything on tracking) Everything was what I ordered and they even (accidentally) gave me an extra pack of coils. Funny thing is the invoice says "Vaporfi" All is well that ends well? Lucky it came today... tomorrow will be getting a colonoscopy (my first one... I'm 60)

That's becuase DV and VF are owned by the same company, Turning Point Brands. I guess they ship under the same account maybe, to keep volume up for dicounts.

 

[vaper1960]

I suspected that.

Got a "ready to ship" email 4 hours ago. Tracking shows "Shipping label created" but it is a USPS tracking number. So that's relieving to me that I didn't get stuck with X delivery.

Yup, and a lot of vape stuff has also gone 'discontinued' the last few months. They are reducing the number of SKU's they handle.

And they are also deleting a lot of old SKUs. Not a big deal but FT was always one place I could go to to look up old gear.

This actually surprised me, for a final update.

Shipped Monday afternoon. Scheduled delivery through USPS was Thursday. Just got it right now. 2 days from California to Alabama. Tracking didn't update very much except for "Arrived at USPS Regional Origin Facility" on Monday in California to arriving at the semi close distribution center at 2:41am this morning. Never showed being in this town or out for delivery. Thankfully I was home at the moment.

USPS's tracking has left a lot to be desired lately. I'm finding that I can't rely on it at all, for several of my shipments. Especially my Sourcemore, which will read that they are in Grand Prairie, Texas for a couple of weeks, even before they have left China and will not change until they indicate the package has been delivered.

 

[SlowTalker]

I experienced the delivered first, tracked later phenomenon with two of my FT orders this week. One was delivered with no warning from tracking info, and the other was delivered 5 days ago and tracking STILL shows "USPS awaiting item." Technically I could get a refund.

 

[Territoo]

My Sourcemore order is in Chicago. It's nothing special, just some kanthal wire and some coils for the Sensis.

 

[MacTechVpr]

It's beginning to look a lot like China.

Good luck all.

MVS just shipped me a bunch of vapes and eliquid (NY)

I ordered some "stuff" from ECBlends last week. Had to pay the extra fee for it being vape related, and to sign for delivery. It was delivered today by USPS, and like some others on here, I did not have to sign for it. Who is getting this extra fee?
