I work. I travel. I vape. I've repeatedly run into the thing where some e-cig website takes it upon themselves to "investigate" me on suspicion of fraudulent credit card activity, though vendors in EVERY OTHER LINE OF BUSINESS seem to be capable of either doing this transparently or without managing to piss me off over the course of the process.
I've seen it with ProVape (they were polite but ...... away days of my time), ElectronicStix (bit of an ......., I'm definitely never going to order another Zen atty, one is more than enough) and, most recently, VapeRev (will never attempt to shop there again, their customer support person is a .........,) who cancelled my order when I questioned their process.
The net result of all of this is that I've learned to just order it from fasttech and wait rather than deal with the hassle of American vendors delaying orders, sending rude emails, and invading my privacy. It's not like this is an expensive hobby in the first place, it's a lot cheaper than my other hobbies (guitars and esoteric bikes) and I'm always ordering things that cost WAY more than a couple or three hundred bucks, and NEVER have had to deal with people emailing me demanding to know why my addresses are what they are.
There's money on the card, kid, just charge it. Better yet, don't. That $250 mod that you just dicked me out of buying? China's selling it for $30, thanks for playing.
