Provape sells the absolute best vaping device, period. After trying 808s, eGos, this vv box, and that vv tube, and that whatever, I finally bit the bullet and bought the expensive-but-totally-worth-it Provari several months ago. End of device shopping. I have the backups, and I desire nothing else now in terms of devices. I buy Boge cartos from surevapes, DIY juice/flavorings from goodprophets and wizardlabs, and the occasional tank from valleyvapes, and that's about it. Shopping and trying different products is fun at first, but eventually it's comforting to just settle down with the good stuff.

The best source for Boge cartos at an excellent price. The $23 5-package (25-carto) mix-and-match is the best deal I've seen -- and the free shipping rocks. Great service as well. I've ordered from surevapes several times with no problem whatsoever and will order again.

I've bought from SmokTek several times and the service has been pretty good. He also has some unique items that I haven't found elsewhere. There are a lot of great sellers out there that are low-priced and service-oriented in addition to SmokTek. Visit e-cigarette-forum.com for a huge amount of info.

A wide variety of products, no matter what you're looking for. Like most e-cig sellers (who are all mostly AMAZING -- but stay away from the ones who pop up on those bogus "review" sites), they provide super-fast shipping, very reasonable shipping costs, great customer service, good products, and...well, what else is there. They're in my bookmarks and I visit their site often to see if they have anything new and exciting.

Not my first choice for e-cig stuff. Great prices and fast shipping, but my order showed shipped in full on their site, but when I received it, the juice was not included and the packing slip was marked "refunded" for that item. I received no notification from them by email. This wouldn't be a big deal for most online purchases, but there are a TON of REALLY GREAT sellers in the e-cig area, and service to the customer is primary to them, and communication is freaking outstanding. So,I can't believe these guys couldn't let me know with a quick email that an item was not being shipped. Probably my first and last order with them.

I bought an Acer netbook from the closeout section. (Who says the netbook concept is dead? I don't, and wouldn't have one of those little tablet-toys for what they cost when I can have one of these cool little netbooks.)

Only one was in stock, and it was a discontinued item, but it had all the features I was looking for. Price was great, shipping was fast, and although the netbook shows some minor signs of use, it was factory refurbed and works perfectly -- and was easily upgradable RAM and OS-wise.

Some of these netbooks require major surgery to replace the 1GB RAM chip with a 2GB; the one I got was easy with an removable panel on the bottom. You should be aware of the requirements if you intend to do that kind of RAM upgrade unless you want to be attempting to pop out the keyboard -- and then get it back in correctly. Yikes. Me thinks not -- for me, anyway.

Oh, and I asked a question about the warranty info and got a very fast and thorough response from CheetahDeals.

Good price, so I ordered from Mowtownusa through Amazon on Sunday and paid $5 shipping on a small item that will no doubt come in a small envelope; item didn't get shipped (according to email notification) until the following Friday, which is when I was expecting to RECEIVE IT. This is just really poor service. I wish I had bought elsewhere, and won't buy from these people again.

Outstanding! What else from a Newegg company? I ordered a rather small 12-dollar item and it was here, as described, in 2 days! Even Newegg takes a day or two longer to deliver (California to Florida). My item came UPS Express. Very impressive, and I hope to do more business with chiefvalue.com.

From now on, this is the first place I'll go for cables. Their Web site doesn't look like much, but, trust me, they have super prices and really super fast shipping/delivery (whoa -- it's here already?!); what else do you want? I also check and recommend monoprice.com and pchcables.com, but lately yourcablestore.com has been kicking their butts in all areas -- item cost, shipping speed, and shipping cost. Check it out.

Great prices, especially if you do the "make an offer" thing on ebay, and incredible customer service. Make no mistake, these guys have better response to reviews here on resellerratings than any seller I've seen.

However, the latest spam Unique Squared sent out is an "enter our contest" thing, but you're only eligible if you "like" them on their freaking Facebook page. I'd just as soon not get it. I hate that Facebook crap.

I've used certificates from restaurant.com with no real problem. Sometimes the restaurant acted a little funny about it, but took it and applied it to the bill.

However, I will not purchase from them again. Many of the certificates they are now selling are not being accepted by the restaurants, which are actually posting signs on the their doors warning same. The last time I tried to use one, the restaurant manager came over and explained that they had told restaurants.com months previously that they were no longer participating, but the site continues to sell certificates. I emailed r.com, told them what the restaurant had said, and they just offered me a replacement certificate. What? For another place that doesn't participate any more? That was three weeks ago and they are still selling certificates for the this restaurant.

Not to be trusted or believed. If you have to buy a certificate, call the restaurant beforehand and make sure they will accept it.

Pools Only had the best price by far on the automatic chlorination system I needed to replace (they only last a few years). Easy ordering; shipped the next day via FedEx ground; and arrived about a week later (California to Florida). No problems. Tracking info was not emailed, but I think was available on their site; I just didn't look for it.

I have also purchased from American Best Pool Supply in the past, but their price was not competitive on this item.

These guys are great. They have a Web site, but I bought from them on ebay (and you should too), made an couple of offers (because the have the Make an Offer thing there), and they accepted within an hour (work hours; don't get carried away if you're thinking they're there all night or something). Granted, I didn't low-ball them, and might have saved 5 or 10 bucks on my $360 purchase with other sellers if I had all freakin' day to shop and worry about it. I just made fair offers, they accepted and the items arrived very quickly, in new condition, and no problemos. I highly recommend. Look for them on ebay and make a (fair) offer.

Ordered a lens from Tristate at the best price I could find, despite the negative reviews here. Got the dreaded "follow-up" call to ostensibly verify that I had placed the order and that the lens would work on my camera (hey, maybe they have a problem with people buying the wrong lens). Nonetheless I think the guy could tell from my tone that I was in no mood for the upsell "we have a great deal on filters and you need an extended warranty" thing so I got none of that. Lens arrived in reasonable 3-business day time and it's not grey market and is brand new. I will certainly consider buying from Tristate again, although I would recommend to everyone that they also check out prices at Adorama, Beach Camera, 17th Street Camera, and, of course, B&H as well when buying any camera equipment.

What's the deal on the "Featured Review" above? This kind of foolishness is why I quit leaving reviews here a couple of years ago. Things just got weird.

Anyway, my last review with resellerratings: Dealing with Beach Camera was an excellent buying experience. Ordered a camera body, which came with a free 4GB CF card, and was priced well below all other reputable online sellers. No followup "upsell" call, which is really nice. Tracking info received and item was received in reasonable time (three business days) and is as expected. Thanks to Beach Camera!
