VAMO from vaporbreak.com

[alcarl]

Well I ordered my vamo from vaporbreak 4/24. I was out of town this week and the tracking number was useless until yesterday. I checked USPS yesterday and seen "Notice Left". Guess i'll have it tomorrow (i hope). 10 days to get to me. Not bad..not bad at all! Does anyone know if they will attempt a re-delivery or if i'll just have to go pick it up from Post Office tomorrow? The slip they left says available for pick up after 5/6.

Believe that means they will attempt delivery until 5/6. If you are around to pick it up tomorrow you should be good.

I think you need to go pick it up tomorrow morning and sign for it, at least that's been my experience. If they tell you it's out for delivery then you will at least know, chances are it will be there for you to pick up.

Finally found Karen online this morning and informed her of my more than 6 week wait. Here's her response. Let's see how it pans out.....

Promised contact within 1-2 days. Now 4 days and counting, no reponse and nobody online.

I see most of you are coming right recently. Of you guys who were having problems previously, how did you go about getting your money back? This has gone past the time frame for a Paypal claim now and I'm getting nowhere.

I haven't had to ask for any money back from VB, but you might try joining their new forum. I joined just to read how they are handling customer complaints. It seems that some people have been satisfied, and they are dealing directly with VB on the site. It might also help that all other members can read the exchange between a customer and VB...a bit of incentive to set things right.

VB now have a customer Forum;

I was told the SS and Black Gun Metal Vamos will come back in stock in the 1st May

I am having a hard time trying to understand why you buy from China. Are the savings worth the wait, the hassle, the heartbreak and the fact that you cannot return the thing if its bad (well you could return but it would cost more than its worth).

Would it not be better to buy from your area in the first place?

Considering my ss Vamo cost me a little more than an ego battery. I say it was worth waiting 8 days. It performs like a champ. I would say there are more good stories than bad. A lot of people don't post when content.

Yes probably true, glad to hear you got yours in 8 days and working like a champ. I'm sure posting this right under the person with the problem makes him feel better.

Considering I get worse service from many (not most) of the US stores than I do with the China shippers... I had my 2 VAMO's from VB in just over a week and had no problems with either. Mine has been used and abused, yet only has a cracked screen and a little wear and tear on the main button and the bottom battery cap (Black Chrome). Wife's is still new looking (Chrome).

I also think it's funny that my local B&M is now selling them, at 250% markup from what I paid for it.

No, I will wait when the price is right! In fact, the only places I have gotten "crap" from have actually been US stores.. And I no longer buy stuff from those stores.

I got my black chrome vamo today! Went to P.O. and picked it up. I was worried about condition after reading some horror stories. No issues. No physical flaws except for a little white spot on the bottom of the screen. Connection looks straight and it has the new gold spring. No rattle whatsoever, not even the buttons (may change if they loosen up a bit). But for $31.00 shipped and just a 10 day wait, i'll take it. I loaded a fully charged panasonic 18650, put on a nova tank (1.8 ohm), fired her up, made sure I was in NO2, clicked to 9 watts and vaped away. I have to say, I am loving it. I am very happy. I am truly sorry for those that have had issues. I can only imagine the frustration.

well said SupplyDaddy.

well said SupplyDaddy.

I agree. Very well said. Really all we're doing is cutting out the middle man. Where do you think the US vendors get their vamos (or anything else for that matter).

anybody know what's going on with VB, i can't access their site anymore. Got this message "You cannot access our store from your country. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Well I just checked and could access site, but if I went to the forum I could not get into the general forum, probably too many complaints and they decided to block it. Anyone else notice this?

im starting to think that they might have blocked me or something because of the whole issue of me not receiving my item and opening a paypal claim.
