Vaporbomb Dissappointment

[chainvapor]

Debate is ovah brah. live 'n learn... ya hear.
Maybe reviews aren't your strong point.

ok, maybe not. Later. No hard feelings I hope.

In terms of subjective...

I think when some people talk about flavor, they are not talking about the same thing... it's because of the way we taste... some recognize flavor through sweet... for others it's about savory... or sour... etc

I can't handle sweet well.
Sweet flavors from Alien Visions, LiquidXpress and Vapor Station are sweet enough for me, while my GF can barely taste the sweet in most of their juices... On the other hand, flavors from Mrs. T's and TV are almost too sweet for me... delicious, but I cut my caramel popcorn from TV with 555 from VS or AV...

In fact, I was going to ask Geoff to make my next TV order a little less sweet... I know it's just me... his flavor is great... but I have those weird taste buds... I need less sweet. He's a terrific guy and he offers to tailor to your tastes... just as VB offers.

My GF is the opposite, she is going to ask Geoff to make her watermelon even sweeter!

Someone like myself and my GF don't really mean the same thing when we discuss flavor... She means sweet, I mean savory... She salts Chinese food and pizza. I try to take the salt off.. Our taste buds are different therefore, our perception of GOOD and BAD is different.

I haven't tried VB... I have an order in... but I think I will like it based on my tastes...

As far as posting negative reviews... I'm not comfortable posting negative reviews unless it is someone's service that I have a problem with... Unless I feel robbed or cheated.

As stated, flavor is subjective... if I like it, I'll do my best to describe it... If I hate it, I'll ignore it... ignoring it is enough...

My favorite Vape is Boba's Bounty... probably one of the most loved and most disliked vapes on ECF...

I set out to try 10 of the most touted juice companies on ECF that I hadn't tried... and I have 3 more to go including VB... and of the 7 that I have tried... 2 were really good... 3 were okay and 2 went in the trash...

Wanna know what went in the trash? I'll never publicly announce it... These folks are vendors on this site... good people... who care about their supporters... most people love their flavors. They are popular. Their service was great. They shipped fast... and I can see why folks love them so... just not me.

regardless of someone's love or hate, Vaporbomb will survive based on it's own merit... and it seems to be impressing a lot more folks than it disappointing.

Truthfully you should speak to the vendor before you even think about posting anything negative.

brilliant suddenly... that's great advice

there must have been a full moon out yesterday!!!!
we all know that taste is very subjective, so why the backlash for somebody who voiced his disappointment? why would we need a review thread if all we are looking for is praise?
harry is a great guy and i'm sure he is always looking for feedback to see how he can improve his juice offerings.
a post like cv's could be very constructive. why was there no th at 24mg with that flavor? maybe the equipment?
hopefully, today will be a better day and people won't react so harshly to others who dare to voice an opinion not meshing with their own.

I agree completeley with TiburonFirst. Of most of the reviews I have read or watched it seems like everyone is scared to give there honest opinion. "Its alright but i prob wouldnt get it again". Thats all i keep hearing. If the reviewer doesnt like it, just say that I don't recomend it. By the way I have had my VaporBomb order for a week now and i can honestley say that it was the worst juice i have tried yet. I spent around 45 Bucks on garbage. 18mg 50/50 mix and there was absolutley no throat hit and the only one that was remotely acceptable was the mountain dew. Oh and the biggest clue to suggest they do not know what they are doing, They mest up my order clearly and when i emailed them to complain about the order and quality they became very defensive, Telling me that I rushed to a conclusion and that if i knew what i was doing i should let it sit for a while. Well one week later and the juice is even worse!

"Dare" ??? please don't make the original poster out to be a hero... more like irresponsible audacity, not daring...

No, that's not what happened here... it's more complex.
No one jumped on another member for writing a negative review of a popular vendor's flavor...

If the member got jumped on, it was because of the way that they made their point.

I would hope that this is the kind of place that members would react sternly to other members who post irresponsibly.

In any case, I don't think the Original poster intended to be taken the way that they did... they didn't set out to discredit one of our vendors or be malicious. Deep down, the OP was probably just voicing an opinion. Whether intented or not, we are still accountable for what we say and to some degree, how others take it.

The big lesson here is that one should contact one of our supporting vendors with a problem first... and be careful not to mingle negative reviews with potentially slanderous comments.

Please, don't misinterpret the direction thread as some poor soul getting attacked for writing an honest negative review... there are other negative reviews of our vendors that didn't take this direction... in fact, most negative reviews don't take this direction.

Really well said lasttango. Both of your posts in this thread are very well thought out and well written. I wish I had the ability to communicate as well as you do. That is exactly why I do not review anything.

 

[pipskicks]

Nicely said and makes sense!



Now saying this contradicts what you said just before it does it not?????

Look If you dont like the Juices thats fine but how can you assume that others will Probally be dissapointed ?????Why because you did not enjoy them??

Even when discussing a negative you should list a positive!
Whats the saying for every negative give two positives or is that backwards lol

nice writeup

But plz do not imply others will not enjoy them as we ALL have huge varying tastebuds!!!!

I say don't list a positive if there is no need for one.

#1. Only way for reviews to work is if they are COMPLETELY honest, and being dissappointed with juice but saying the company is great, is just plain unhelpful.

#2. Haven't you made negative reviews without a positive? I'm not throwing stones, only saying when a negative review is deserving, it should be done, I have no idea why you should put a positive in....

I am moving this thread to the "reviews of suppliers" thread so the supplier can have an opportunity to respond since the integrity of the supplier is being questioned. It has moved beyond what is a straight review.

Ok, Harry at vaporbomb offered me to return my juice for a full refund INCLUDING the shipping! This is unheard of from a vendor. I told him that I made the decision to try out their juice, so therefore there is no reason for him to feel he needs to pay me back. But I do appreciate the offer very much! This was incredible to say the least. Just wanted everyone to know that vaporbomb does have great people and there customer service in second to none! So all in all, even if I did not like the juice, I can say Customer Service is Spectacular!!!
5 out of 5 Stars for Vaporbomb Customer Service!! Thank you!!

CV

After trying alot of 3-5ml sampler packs from various vendors i decided to buy some bigger bottles so i ended up at Vaporbomb based on all the good reviews i've read on ECF. i have not tried any sole tobacco flavors, i smoked menthols, i dont like the taste of tobacco by itself

ordered all 50/50 mix 18mg
15ml kamel menthol- i picked this flavor after ordering V4L kamel menthol, theirs tastes like wintergreen gum so i said ok, this is a flavor i can vape daily. boy was i surprised when i loaded up a full carto of VB juice. lots of tobacco flavor, not so much on the menthol side. it kind of taste like what i would think wet tobacco leaves would taste like. i probably should have ordered a small bottle first before ordering 15ml. different vendors, different flavors. some ppl might love this taste, i was looking for more of a wintergreen/mint gum flavor. with that said i did order 30ml of wintergreen from vaporbomb once i tasted the kamel menthol. fingers crossed...

5ml cheesecake- LOVE IT, this is the first juice, aside from the cafe macchiato i got from tasty vapor that has a lot of flavor and tastes exactly like its name. i love cheesecake, i love this flavor, dont know if i can vape it all day or not but its nice to have when i want something sweet. it tastes like fluffy perfectly done cheesecake, well done VB

15ml french vanilla- good flavor, tastes like vanilla pudding to me, i love vanilla pudding so this is great for me. i dont have a huge sweet tooth so i probably wont vape this everyday but its nice to have at hand when i want something sweet

5ml marshmallow- another good flavor, true to name it really tastes like marshmallows

i would have tried the rest but im waiting on cartomizers to arrive in the mail so hopefully monday i can try out the rest

5ml cola -haven't tried yet
5ml mountain mist- haven't tried yet
5ml redbomb- haven't tried any to form an opinion but smells dead on
5ml-lemon-freebie, haven't tried yet

i can say after trying samplers from other vendors i am glad to have found a place where i dont have to guess what the flavor is, or get just a whiff of the flavor. i think ill be ordering more from vaporbomb in the future but i'll stick to the 5ml bottles until i know i like it

Huge fan of the Mt. Mist. Vaped it and was also drinking a Mt. Dew and I can say the taste is spot on.

The only statement VB would like to make is that if you have a problem, please feel free to contact us. We will do all we can to come to a resolution with any of our customer. It was stated that we where contacted and were "Defensive" and unwilling to help. When we suggest that you allow some of are liquids to set, that is not a defensive stand. The product we produce is made fresh when it is ordered, it is shipped that day or the next morning. When a customer receives our liquid it is fresh. Every bottle is hand mixed by Jerry or myself. Nothing is pre-mixed, nothing sets on a shelve waiting to be ordered. And WE do believe we have the "nicest, cleanest and smoothest" nicotine available. We take great pride in searching out the best ingredients. We have gone to the factories where our flavorings are made, and have talked with the manufacturers of these products, to insure that not only are we getting a product to meet VB standards, but to insure that our customers are getting the Highest quality e-liquid available on the market. We are committed vapers and that commitment extends to the vaping community through the products and services we provide, and the community out-reach we have done. You can be assured that if a call for help go's out and we are able to assist , we have and will continue to help. To have had our integrity challenged was a great blow to not only Jerry and myself, but to the other employees and some very dear customers that we have come to call our Friends. Thank you to Elendil for giving use the opportunity to address this issue, and to all that supported us. Chainvapor has declined our offer and has chosen to keep the juice he received. We hope that he will come to enjoy them and will visit us again. xzavier1985 had stated that he has 75% of the juice left and has been issued a full refund including shipping.
