I only buy fluid from a couple vendors. The Vapor Station has great flavors, one of them being my favorite all day vape. Unfortunately, I have found that their shipping practices are shady. Several shipments have taken as long as 8 business days to reach me, and most a minimum of 5 days. Last week while I was away on business, my e-cigs and nearly all my fluids were stolen from my car. Friday, I placed three orders from different vendors, the Vapor Station is located closest to me of the 3. I called them first on Friday. I was assured that my order would be sent out on Saturday. Monday, I received one order from a vendor farther away than VS.. I called to see if my order had been sent, so I could get fluid ovenighted to me if it had not. I was assured my order had been shipped on Saturday. Today I received my other order all the way from Ca., but no VS order. I took a closer look at the tracking info, and noticed that the shipping label had been created on Sunday, and the USPS was notified to expect the shipment. This means it wasn't shipped Saturday, and since there is no tracking available for this shipment, it probably wasn't shipped priority mail, which is the service I paid for. I don't like to be misled, and I'm certain no one else does either. Just wanted to share my experience. Everyone thinking of buying from Vapor Station can judge for themselves.

Just an update. The order that was supposedly taken to the USPS on Saturday, showed on the USPS tracking system, that the package was not in the USPS's hands until 9/11, at 3:11pm. Coincidentally, Eric called me at 2:47pm, to apologize, and assure me that he did indeed take it to the post office on Saturday, and offered to pay for a disposable e cig at a local store for my inconvenience. I declined the offer.

One of the other vendors I ordered from on 9/7, within minutes of the VS order, got the order to me on Monday, 9/10. Today, 9/11, GotVapes has already shipped a replacement for the mistake in my order. i will have their replacement before the VS order arrives.

For the record, I believe that it's the shipping service, or the USPS in the area that causes the problems. Eric is a great guy, and I don't believe he would intentionally take so long to ship anything. It just sucks that his business will probably suffer from the shipping service taking 8 days to deliver a package shipped priority mail. I don't blame Eric for it, and I will certainly continue to buy juice from him. He has some great flavors, and his Tennessee will continue to be one of my favorite all day vapes.
