| Andy,
Excellent reminder.
If it seems too good to be true, well you know the rest.
People- you need to shop around.
Guests lurking in the background on this forum, or other forums, join, ask questions.
Thanks again Andy,
The Rocket |

| I have something to add to the scam topic guys. Last two weekends I've been at the Central Mall in Texarkana, TX talking with the public and converting smokers in vapees.
I had three couples come to me saying they bought the Smoke Assn. and here is what they all said:
We thought it was free, they charged us for shipping, then after the free "TRIAL" was done they charged our credit card ... then they charged our card again for cartridges.
Before they realized what was going on and tried to stop it, SA got them for $150 ... $150!
That is not free! Caveat Emptor!!
And a couple brought me one to see if my 808B cartridges worked with it ... they did not. I tried the SA and noticed the wick is in a blue plastic tube inside the cig. THE THING SUCKED! It got juice in my mouth and was simply horrible.
Don't get taken ... tell your friends and family members not to do it!! |

| Andy,
Had friends go thru that with Smoke Assasin and Smoking everywhere and now Smoke51 is doing it. These companies are all about getting a buck thats it. They could care less about customers or anything. So I have been telling EVERYONE thats interested to STAY AWAY FROM THESE FALSE ADVERTISEMENTS and THESE COMPANIES.

| Puff if you could hear some of these people call me who bought 51 or GS you'd just shake your head.
One guy bought a 51 from the mall for 150 bucks. He's a really cool person too, they just reemed him.
I told him bethankful that you found vaping at least ... there is no price that can justify the introduction to vaping. I know it sucks, imagine the money saved in future health bills from tobacco damage. Well he his much wiser now, I took about an hour to educate him on vaping and recommeded some other sites besides ours for supplies. |

Read full Story about these Scams and BEWARE of it. | How I got started, but in my case it was a free cig, but a $69/month 'subscription' for carts, no nicotine only. But they kept their word, when I called and asked for nic cartidges they said they didn't have them, and I cancelled. Right then. And, like they said, keep the cig. Then I burned out the atty (first one in a LOOONG line...). Now I hear a very similar ad for e-cigs with nicotine. THey probably realized people were cancelling because of the no nic and started another line. But, I found this place the day after I got my free-cig, and got a lot of tips and advice, and got a REAL e cig.
Vaping happily ever after...

| The monthly subscription cartridge deal is the "Gift That Keeps On Giving" whether you want it to or not.
Flavor of the month, and seasonal flavors, like "White Sandy Beach" for Summer, or "Rock Slide" for the Spring thaw.
Bunny Pellets for Easter,
Giblet Gravy flavor for Thanksgiving,
Reindeer droppings dripping from your roof,
and the beat goes on.
Just think of the commercials you could make with this.

| i've been Vaping for three weeks now and i've only had maybe half a pack of analogs! I never thought it would be possible to go from almost two packs a day to half a pack in Three Weeks!! I almost got caught by a Free E-Cig scam but luckly i found this Forum and some wonderful people that want us all to enjoy our vaping experance. I now own two Volcano's and two 901's. I have grown partial to the Black Tea Mint by Nhale at 24mg. I have found that it takes me about a day and a half to kill one of my 901 batts, although i do use my USB passthrough quite abit ( I am now..). But thanks to you guys i was saved from these Scams. Thank you all so much for helping guide my way into the world of Vaping, i have never felt this good! |

| LP, it's great to hear that you're doing so good switching to vaping! If you have the same experience most of us did, you'll find yourself wanting an analog less and less, especially if you keep your ecigs with you at all times with an extra charged battery, atty, and juice close at hand and take a monster vape hit when you think analog. Now it's just a matter of re-training your brain because vaping definitely tastes better than tobacco! I'm very happy for you!!! And thanks for posting your success; we have some recent newbies who will be encouraged by reading it.
