I am sure nearly everyone has gone through this so I probably shouldn't even be making this thread but I can't help but express some resentment over needless extra shipping costs due to having to buy a mod, atty, batteries, and ejuice from four separate places. Usually, mods and attys can be combined but not in my case and whittling down to three isn't much progress anyway but I guess it is something.
I am not knocking any of the vendors that sell these products since many do an excellent job at what they sell but it sure would be nice to have reputable places to one stop shop including batteries which are probably the cheapest of the four to ship without free shipping but they do help add to the total of a one stop total purchase.
Take my case. Since I am eventually buying a Vapefly Nicolas MTL atty directly from Vapefly sales since it is only sold on one US site and they offered to sell it to me directly, I am obviously going to do it that way but it will cost me $7 even though I am getting it at the lowest price and a promise that I don't need to ship it back if I make a defective product claim. Can't beat the offer but still, it is a separate shipping cost none the less that I could have got free shipping for if only I had a quad mod and bought two quarters to marry.
Ecig.com has the Smoant Battlestar for the wonderfully low price of $32.45 after coupon code. So wonderfully low that it fails to qualify for the $50 minimum needed for free shipping if only I could buy my atty with it. Batteries or juice for that matter.
As far as juices, that one is the one I can least complain about since I am looking for the most precise full flavored cigarette emulator on the market hence the least likelihood it would also be available with other vaping gear.
It isn't so much the cost as it is the principle of having to pay shipping four times over at about $20 - $30 in shipping costs that could have been for free. These batteries weren't made for the consumer market so paying extra is a must. Thank you LG, Samsung, and Sony for that. NETs and especially WTAs are hard to make so a limited market has to be expected. The mod and atty makers abandoning smokers is something many here complain about so when a new company like Vapefly does the right thing, of course I'll pay extra but another shipping cost none the less.
No worries. I'll suck it up and pay the four separate shipping costs. I just had to let out frustration is all. Hopefully, some can understand that need.
