Thanks for the explanation, DarthVaper.

You know, I never thought about it before, but you're right. It's almost like they're saying, "yeah...no thanks...smoking is better for me". I have seen people take one really tiny pull, go into an extremely exaggerated coughing fit, and hand it back shaking their head at me with a look on their face like I'm crazy for doing it. Some others tell me that they saw on "The News" how dangerous "Those Things" are and flatly refuse to try it. By contrast, I haven't had a coughing fit since April 8, 2012...the day my first PV arrived in the mail. Haven't had a single cold since that day, either. Coincidence...I think not.

Didn't do it fast enough lol got it now thanks

I've got one for you. Last week I was getting hard up for juice. I'd been holding out on making a big order because I was waiting for Alien Visions to reopen their web orders (gotta have my Boba's). While Christmas shopping, I decided to pop by the e-cig kiosk in the mall to see if i could grab about 20 ml of something vapable to carry me over. I'd noticed before that this kiosk sells eGo gear so I figured they'd have more than just pre-filled cartridges for some weird proprietary starter kit junk. Promising, right? I walk up to encounter your clueless hourless employee. She'd obviously been trained on their products but was completely ignorant of the vaping world at large. Ok. What follows is our exchange. Me: Hi, I'm wondering if you guys sell bottles of e-liquid. Her: Yes, we do. Me: Okay, what kinds do you have? Her: We have everything (sure they do). What do you smoke? We have apple, peach, menthol, chocolate... Everything. Me: Uh, usually VG-based tobacco flavors with 18 mg nicotine.. Her: We have tobacco flavor. (At this point I'm expecting your typical Dekang 555 or something similar.) Me: Cool. What size bottles are you selling? (She opens a drawer and produces what looks like a 10ml bottle of unmarked e-liquid.) Her: This is the size of bottle that e-liquid comes in. This sells for $39.95 on it's own but is only $25.00 if you buy one of our starter kits. (FORTY BUCKS FOR 10 ML OF SOME RANDOM CHINESE JUICE ARE YOU ******* KIDDING ME) Me: Wow, ah, seriously? That price is for a 10 mil bottle? Her: I have no idea. They're this size. Me: Look, I know you're not setting these prices, but you should know that is outrageous. Her: Uh, yeah, I have no idea. (A trend emerges.) Me: I encourage you to Google this stuff since you're selling it to people. Just so you know - this (as I pick up the bottle) costs about five dollars. Not forty. That is an insane price. Your company is ripping people off who don't know any better. (She's looking kind of uncomfortable by now so I ease off.) I'm not going to buy this, but thanks for your time. ... And I leave. I nearly lost my **** when she dropped that price.

Did you click the button 5 times to turn it on?

1st....is she pulling into the mouth first then inhaling, or taking straight into the lungs.....makes a huge difference. 2nd...as mentioned above, could be the flavor. depending on the liquids...the flavoring could be the culprit.

for me....empty, rinse well, refill. This time, before you take a hit, depress the button...gently blow through the mouth piece until vapor comes out the battery end of the clearomizer (just a second or so), then take a normal draw. should taste better. For some reason the liquid doesn't always wick to the heating element, I've had this problem with most of my clearomizers now and again.

You are ALL so correct! I knew better. Especially as long as I'v been a member of this forum. I just took a shot w/o reading everything. Because I acted so fast, and I have an agressive bank, I didn't loose anything. Got it all back. I just posted this to warn as many as I could. Sometimes you have a 'brain fart'! You know! Duh! On me! Ha! Ha! Ha! I guess I have been away from The Vapor Talk too long!
