Liking Mary's Sir Ogre's juice (@4.7V) and the Snacakadoodle Cookie's very cookie dough with a hint of cinnamon!

Acorn tanks arrived today, so far so good.

Much easier to fill than most CE2 tanks, just screw off the lid and fill up.

Thanks again Digi

[danscrew]

Just ordered a couple of Acorn tanks, 1 standard, 1 Xl. Clearo atties give a nice clean taste so I'll let you know how I get on. Mary Parkes must be pleased with all this business from the UK. Also got some sample flavours to try. The site says that they hand mix their own.

One of the best value sites we have found, as cheap as Health Cabin but with some interesting mods and tanks.

Thanks digicig

[danscrew]

One other thing. The way you pay on the site is strange. Threw me for a while. You go through submitting all your card details and then nothing! Later you get an invoice by email and that is when you confirm the payment. Must be a USA thing.

Aloha Danscrew
That's why i mentioned the pay thing in the review cos it's different
We Pay 'Review'
Hope thee like the Acorns and juice - favourite so far is Twinkie - vanilla cream centre - yum!

[easystreet]

never got my chibi tank, coz when i ordered, my bank locked my card because they thought it was a fraudulent transaction. I subsequently broke my toe, missed the call from the 'fraud prevention team', and never ended up paying for the tank. they cancelled the order and i ended up getting a puff diddy...

obviously, that won't happen to everyone, lol....

[Digicig]

Sorry to hear that Easy - dome things just weren't to be
Google Chrome doesn't like We Pay - refuses to allow me on. But Firefox fine and with 4 transactions i've had no problems with paying or authorization with my Santander account

Another 'review'.

Edit: must place order for a 30ml bottle of Twinkie juice - really nice vanilla creaminess on the exhale!

Mine took about a month to come

[Bruce]

Mine only took 6 days...been using it for nearly a month, and still not had a leak. These little tanks are that good I've ordered another 2. £11 posted with a syringe lol. Bargain tanks!

[richiebabes]

thanks Dik i will just sit and wait, but would be good to get some sort of reply from email from them.
thats two weeks longer than a health cabin order on the slow boat to china.
and when u get an order through in 5 days from gotvapes allso in the usa?
so something wrong somewhere.
the juicies from parkes are freshly made, so atleast they have had two weeks to steep lol.

cheers rick

Sorry to hear that - i've had all my orders through without a hitch - tho the last pre-Xmas one took almost 3 weeks.
If thee don't receive it - try giving Mary a ring - i use International phonecards for my Ma in Ireland so i don't think about it and phone the US (£2.50 for 300 minutes-ish)
Do let us know how this progresses though - it could just be the mail.


Edit: Gotvapes are based in New York - and i've seen the tracking from a package from Mary - it was stuck in Miami for over a week - until a later order overtook it!

New(ish) How to fill a Chibi Tank Video on Youtube- hope it helps!

[Digicig]

And if folk are having any leakage issues (i haven't yet) here's a thread from ECF

[Tatty]

Mine arrived this morning, 5 days after I ordered it.

Not filled it yet and, as you say, it looks a bit rough and ready but as long as it doesn't leak I'll be happy. For that price, looks are secondary...

One thing about WePay though - If I order again I'll have to factor in an extra £1.50 overseas transaction fee on my Visa debit card.

[Digicig]

Which bumps the cost up to what - £6 for a Tank

Edited by Digicig, 01 February 2012 - 11:09 AM.

[Tatty]

Yep, which brings it into the range of the Puff Warriors. The advantage of the Chibi over them, I suppose, is that they'll take a Boge.

[Tatty]

Working great so far - I got the 3.0ohm carto. Easy to fill, once you got past the 'stab it really hard' mental block and no leaks.

Thanks for the heads-up on these Digi.

Glad thee like it Tatty - I only have about 6 for the price of the Lquinator i bought!

[Tatty]

It looks quite groovy on the LT too.

Must admit, my only experience with tanks (I own, anyway) before yesterday was with ones containing DCCs. They were decent but I was still not 100% on them - Then I stuck an IKV 3ohm into my Diddy (Accident & Emergency removed it, I'll be limping for a while though ) yesterday and it blew my socks off.

Same today with the 3ohm Boge so no more DCCs for me.
