Well waiting for my new Xl manual battery cause the one I have busted. I ordered Wednesday and It will usually show up friday. Because V4L service is outstanding and they ship their product out exactly how they say, 2-3 business days. Anywho USPS lies about that and they suck. Appearently it isnt a must for postal service employees to know how to read because my package was missent to about an hour away from where I actually live. And make no mistake it isnt even close to like the same letters or easily mistakable. But whatever I can wait. Because then there is something to look forward to tommorow. I need my manual XL cause I miss my old one:(. And the new premo parlys (YAY). But heres the tracking system. Which subsiquently(if I spelled that right) is usually right as to where my package is. For me its always been for the most part dead on. So here what they say.

I live in Batavia, NY so Clearence doesnt even sound like Batavia, nor is it near it in any way. Granted only like an hour and some to get there but what the hell right? Anywho another question for anyone who can answer. I believe I got almost a whole package of duds from premos. They were blank premium ones. The first package I received were amazing but the seconds all burned too hot and burned the filler. I wish I could upload pictures to show you but I think something is wrong with my account here cause it wont let me(if someone can help wit that I would be very thankful) And yes I have tried reformating and making them smaller and what not. No matter what it says unable to process??? But Anyway Only one out of 5 of the blanks I had worked well. They others burned filler ran too hot and didnt make hardly any vapor. One was totally dud it wouldnt even heat with any battery I tried. I know that sometimes these things happen but does anyone have a similar situation?? Is there a way to use these things. I have gotten duds before but never like this is one package. Maybe its the blanks but the other package were awesom. In no way shape or form am I putting down V4L because I know you can only control so much. But maybe Im doing something wrong. I fill them regularly by dripping then taryn spin and drip again then let them sit a while. Anyone got some advice. Sorry for the essay but I need some help please! :)

I agree. It is frustrating. But to tell the truth it isn't as bad as we think. mail gets delivered every day, 99.9 times it hits the mark. But when the really important stuff is coming our way...V4L stuff and checks to us..we pay attention and start counting hours and days. It just seems that it isn't getting to us fast enough. Take a breath and remember that nobody said 3 days! It is 3 to 5 days! That's not counting Sunday.
Next year it won't be delivered on Sat. learn to order on Sunday night folks!:rolleyes:

Haha Mary Kay the voice of reason! Always! But so true We need a complaint thread for usps. Yes when we pay more attention its worse because we watch every move I agree. And USPS actually works hard and have some good people. But they need to rework their tracking system so it doesnt get us excited then let us down. Or vice versa. And I know some people dont understand my poor writing skills so sorry. But I gotta give them props in the fact that they do work saturdays (for know). Fedex and Ups doesnt. and if its there friday night your screwed until monday right? So yea Usps Actually I appoligize, I love you and your work just not your tracking system. And V4L I love your great fast shipping awesomeness because you make me smile! Sooo sorry to say I take back above post, but leave it their to show others how when mail time comes Im more on edge. Love you all!

BTW- I figured out my carto situation. Sometimes the coil is way to close to the side. Using a needle I got in their(carefully) and moved it to the center. I usually move the hole to the center anywase but this time the coil still stayed to the side. So make sure if you have a magnifying glass to center the whol kitten kaboodle. Thanks whoever in the tips and tricks forum taught me that.
