Happy Thursday.

USPS Update: My 510s from Varitube finally made it across Houston via tricycle (Saturday to Thursday - WOW) ... they are at my local Post Office, so I can probably look forward to receiving these before the change of seasons. My Boxer is still MIA. My post office tells me their tracking system shows it hasn't left @Taver13's hood, but Ginger Vapers thinks it's on it's way. Since I know the stop after Long Island is in NJ, I will probably have to wait for the Long Island Postal tricycle to get it cross across the state line up there.

Hoot, so the LI Tricycle is faster than the Htown trike. I was wrong ... the 510s from Varitube are still stuck lost on the other side of town. My Boxer mysteriously pulled into my post office without ever landing in Houston ... simply outstanding - only 3 days late and counting.

These MF's, I got my money back, then I got an email they shipped, so I laughed. Now I have another charge on my CC. I am now filing a fraud complaint. Joe should not be pushing shit like this, it is completely irresponsible.

Yeah that does happen from time to time. The manufacturer screws up, makes the merchant screw up, then it makes me look like bad because I'm going what the merchant is saying. Bad game of telephone. It sucks but in the end you can always get your $$ back if you want. 99% of the time the products are accurate but nothing is perfect.

Yeah I just found it to be shifty on my receipt it says temp control I click the link and it takes me to a non TC version so if it comes in with temp control I won't use them ever again but if its not what I originally ordered I will take whatever course of action I can take against them

As far as making you look bad I don't think it does cause your info supports what I ordered I backs up what I'm claiming they have done I would just make sure you watch them for future deals that's if you plan on still using them at all... Regardless they lost my support for sure

Thx for at least looking in to see what happened with them

I'm glad you were made aware @VaperJoe, especially since several were affect by this, one even cancelled and they shipped and recharged him.... I know you don't promoted questionable vendors so I hope this was a mixup that can be worked out, but we will let you know if it's not...

if you use "proceed to check out" rather then PayPal option it will let you use a credit card some people don't like PayPal for what ever reason but PayPal is gonna save me if these guys don't send a temp control box cause my gear best receipt says I paid for a temperature controlled box so if I get anything less I'll be contacting PayPal or whoever to solve the issue

But NO company should have the right to charge your credit card without your approval. Several sights let you have this option now for ppl that don't have a paypal account. But usually when you pay online it will always need your approval before charging you even through paypal cc. That just blows my mind.....

Exactly I mean if they can accidentally ship it after you cancel and say ... Oh well just run his card again.... Who is to say they can't just run it whenever they feel like it! that's just shady!!!!

The thing I don't understand is if you do paypal cc(credit card without having pp account) shouldn't only paypal have that info? Or did they take that info and save it, cuz your talking days to a week after the order was cancelled. That is not cool... To say the least.

My bet is: @Lighty269 used the third option.

So ... Boxer kit is in hand. Varitube 510 that got to Houston Saturday is not. Guess I'm building with the Fat Daddy 510 and just tossing the Varitube 510s into inventory. I gotta nap so I can keep my eyes open for the soldering, but the Boxer will breath tonight.

Hey everyone, very sorry for the lack of posting. The box is safe and sound on my counter awaiting it's final addition from me. The short version...
May 31st my mother got diagnosed with cancer, my wife, kid and I moved, life became to busy to even take a shit in peace and quiet. June 27th my mom came home from the hospital after a 4 week stay with chemo. June 28th my daughter was born(she wasnt due until July 8th).
I'll have the box to the post office tomorrow morning, no ifs ands or buts about it.

@Sigmardin ... dude, I can totally relate - you wouldn't believe all the crap USPS has brought into my life. Sometimes I wonder how much more of this I can handle. Seriously though ... glad your Mom is home; home beats hospital. Chemo sucks so do what you can to help her. Major congrats on the new little human; I'm certain you're well rested. And, hope the new casa is start'n to feel like home.

@RZAwora ... just wonder'n, is Smok gonna send you Smok X Cube II 160watt TC Bluetooth? I know you're in kinda tight with them and I'm sorta interested in hearing what this one is all about. I like the side bar trigger and I'm wondering if they are actually gonna do anything useful with the bluetooth. Guess I'm also hoping they actually build it so it works.
