In addition to getting up to my required number of posts (eventually), I really want to give a shout-out to a few vendors that may or may not be forum suppliers, but have been wonderful to work with getting started on this journey.

Mad props to the folks at CigNot, and Vicky in particular. Very fast shipping, great products and extremely responsive customer support... they've been great so far and I'm already referring folks here at work their way.

DFW Vapor has proven to be a great place to get e-liquid. Again, very fast shipping and some wonderful juices - their Mt. Dew, Banana Moon Pie and Bacon (yes!) are all awesome.

mad vapes has been another great source for e-liquid. I'm especially fond of their Chocolate Fudge Bavarian Cream, Pineapple Upside Down Cake, Top Banana, and Cheesecake (esp. with a few drops of their Blueberry).

NoSmokeVA was the source for my VaporMaxx 510 PCC. This style of PCC was hard to find at first and theirs works great. Of course, after buying this one I have found a few others with about the same features, but this one looks great, works great, and NSVA's service and responsiveness has also been great.

I've purchased other stuff from several different vendors but my experiences with the ones above have been truly notable and I would not hesitate to recommend any of them to fellow new vapers!

+ another 1 on cignot! Very fast shippers for sure. Even a handwritten "thank you" with a little drawing on the invoice. Made an impression on me, at least.

Also, for me anyway, VaporKings has been my go-to spot. Get shipping info within hours of placing an order. Haven't let me down yet.

Liberty-Flights is another good one in my book.

VikingVapor... jury is still out on that one. Will let you know if the wait was worth it whenever my juice arrives. Guess I have been spoiled by the other's same day shipping.

I need to try that DFW Vapor Bacon Juice!!! How is it? I smell a new AM "breakfast" vape... maybe mix that with a french toast liquid... hmmmmm

The DFW Bacon flavor is incredible. Despite good reviews I was expecting little more than a fake hickory-smoke flavor. Instead I got a very distinct taste that reminds me of nothing less than bacon cooked right up to the point of being crispy. I nearly had tears in my eyes. :)

Vape it long enough and you may even notice something very much like that buttery, salty lingering taste in the mouth that real bacon can leave. It was definitely a pleasant surprise and if you like savory flavors it's well worth getting a 10ml bottle to try. You definitely want to reserve a cartomizer for this; run it through your day-to-day atty and everything you vape from then on will taste like bacon!

Now if I could only find a good emulation of a Whopper I'd be set. :)

Who did I forget? Every single vendor listed has great customer service, prompt shipping, and great products. Some went above and beyond like fighting their way in work during the blizzard to ship stuff out.

I'm still working my way through some of these guys, but so far Vermillion River has been my fav. Wonder why you don't hear that much about them?

I've read a lot of great things about Vermillion River. I'm up to my neck in juice as it is but I will definitely give them a try.

Honestly I've been pretty happy with every vendor I've gone through. Shipping has always been within a day (with the exception of some of the liquid folks, which is understandable), and service has been great in the rare instance I've needed it.

I placed and order form FreedomSmokeUSA earlier this afternoon and had a tracking number in 3 and a half hours. A handful of sampler packs and some oddball accessories. That was pretty darned impressive, all things considered.

But really I can't say I was disappointed by anybody. They've all been pretty awesome.

Based on my relatively limited experience so far, it seems this a pretty tough industry to be in. I mean, look at the list of vendors posted so far in this thread. There are more of them than there are vapers talking about them! When most of them are hawking basically identical pieces of hardware, service is the only place they really can set themselves apart, aside from cutting prices. Either of those options works out pretty well for us, the customer :)
