This place lists things for sale on their website, that they don't even have. For prices it cannot be found elsewhere. They tell you it is coming "direct from the manufacturer." Then after having you wait for a few days, they tell you it is not available. Uh, the MANUFACTURER ran out? BULL. Just collecting yo stuffs. Rude as hell, completely do not give a crap that maybe you actually NEED what THEY SOLD, and YOU NEED, and they do not even have.

AVOID!

Gearbest offers items that they don't even stock, for less than it can be had anywhere else. When their supplier falls down on the order, they ask that you select another item, which will NOT be discounted, and you must pay any difference. If that doesn't make you happy, they offer you an in store credit. This is bait and switch at its worst. We have LAWS against this kind of thing in America, but you have no such protection buying from China. IF you press them very hard, they will finally offer you a refund. Great. Black Friday has come and gone, and NO WAY can I get the item I am looking for, at the prices it was available for everywhere. Shipping times are HORRENDOUS as well. Best to AVOID this place, it is a bit of a scam.

I have been buying from Amazon for years! No matter what small niche or unusual item I am searching for, I can find it here! And at the best possible prices!

I LOVE amazon. Never had a bad experience, EVER.
Just wish I had bought some STOCK! :)

For needing something quickly, you can't beat their brick and mortar stores, although they certainly charge a significant amount over online for the convenience.

But for online shopping of office products? Quite expensive, and a bit of searching will likely save you significant money.

This is a hit or miss site. SOMETIMES you can find terrific bargains here! Shipping is quite good, and the prices, if you need the item, can be fabulous!

Gotta kiss a few frogs though, to find a prince.

I love Costco! Besides having wonderful prices, you can be sure that if they stock it, their very consciencious buyers have done a fabulous job of making sure it is of excellent quality, and is well priced for what is offered!

I have been a member of this forum for 3 years. I was trying to quit cigarettes, and having a PhD in Googology, thought I would do a little research first.

Oh My God! I was SO happy to find this resource. There are LITERALLY hundreds of thousands of experience vapers on this site, and almost to a MAN (or woman, and lots of very sweet ones there too! ;) ) they are all SO willing to take the time to answer your questions, suggest the proper hardware for your level of experience, and point you in all the right directions!

Over the several years I have been there, I have made. Hundreds! Of friends. Most virtual, but many I have met in person either locally, or at vape meets. There are an amazing number of VERY knowledgeable people there, from ALL walks of life. You can, and if you desire, will learn SO much about vaping, or anything else your heart desires.

I see a negative review of one of ECF's FINEST moderators above. I am sorry this person had this experience, but I am certain that if he had read the TOS of the site, he would see that there WAS an infraction and it was dealt with per policy. The site IS... what is the word I want to use. CLOSELY moderated. This is for a myriad of fabulous reasons. They want to be sure that everyone has a pleasant experience, and that nobody feels uncomfortable by hostile, or vulgar, or profane people. They are also very careful to monitor unregistered suppliers of merchandise and services. There are unscrupulous people who would make references under the guise of being helpful, when in fact they have ulterior motives of self interest. Not all may act reputably as well. ECF tries to protect their members from this kind of activity. Moderating 250,000 people is NOT an easy task.

If you are a vaper, or a smoker considering vaping, you CAN NOT do better ANYWHERE on the internet in finding a source of GREAT, and copious, information and meeting amazing and wonderful people. Please come and visit, I would like to see what YOU might contribute too! Look me up, I am just another user like you will be, and my name is LouisLeBeau. You won't be disappointed!
