Group Orders

[Perpetua]

I thought it might be interesting for anyone who doesn't frequent other ecig forums to have a read of this thread from another place, I've posted on it and is my want on this forum, seem to have killed the thread . . . not that I'm remotely bothered by that.

ukvapers.com/topic/3656-bulk-orders-from-hong-kong/

But, given the passions this topic seems to induced, it again reminds me how well as an internet forum we operate.

As I said on the EM order thread I'm more than happy to continue doing our orders if everyone would like, next one Aprilish time?

Up until now, I've recieved no payment/bonus call it what you will from Eastmall, that's never been nor would be my motivation for doing them . . . however, as EM give you points on the $'s spent it now means that any future orders I place will attract a 9.5% discount as result of our previous spends.

I'd like to be completely transparent & honest here and ask everyone how they'd like this discount handled on any potential future orders?

I haven't read your link yet, Perpy, but as for EM's discount - I would like you to somehow get the benefit of "my share", and continue to charge me the site prices + P&P.

The service you provide me with is priceless

Now I've read the thread - or some of it - gave up once it "descended"

Yes, totally agree with Scylla, if there are any discounts to be had from EM, they should go to Perpy for sure. The prices are already great, so a further discount wouldn't seem right, especially after Perpy is going to the trouble of re-packaging everything.

Please Perpy, accept this haha, I know you say it's no trouble, but that's not the point really.

I'm in agreement too...
In a way, it would make me feel less as if I was taking advantage of you.

I totally agree with Bucko here.As i posted on UKV,you are a rare little gem Perpy for doing these orders. If ever there was any discounts,points whatsoever,you have earned them with all your hard work in doing the order.I find some peoples attitudes hard to beleive.Like i said in another post,i see both sides of the story,so like to support uk vendors also.However,when a group order is placed,yes,i love the big saving,who wouldnt.It just shows what a great forum this is,we are all friends who trust eachother.I have learned by browsing other forums,and posting on some others, that this forum is by far the friendliest and most trusting bunch of people as a group.
You do not have to be the biggest to be the best.Other forums i have posted on,people just seem to either ignore me or totally discard what i have posted.Massive egos,and know it alls,make you feel like you are unwelcome on some forums,this is such a shame and cant be good for anyone.

So to hell with whatever anyone else thinks anyway.Keep doing the orders Perpy.I hope you do get some sort of reward.If anyone deserves it,you do. No small discount will reward all your hours that you have put into doing the order for everyone.You are a star.

Perpy, I was reading that thread yesterday & some of the comments really got me down I also felt sorry for the OP of that thread.

I completely agree, please use the discount for your own part of any orders. It's the very least you should have for all the hard work you put in

Massive thanks to you all, for that - really appreciated. I really wanted to be upfront with you all, as we base our group order's on mutual trust.

The attitude of some people on that thread really peeved me off as well - I thought Buck's post a most excellent one as well, for some folk I'd imagine the choice for them has been either endeavouring quitting smoking completely or finding as inexpensive a way of vaping as they possibly can, and why shouldn't they as indeed the rest of us, if we can save a few bob.

I had to laugh at a element of hypocrisy from a Vendor on there, previously they'd posted a link from Deal Extreme ( a well known UK supplier ) for an accessory and then had the gall to blame people buying from overseas for the possible demise of any UK suppliers.

Agree completely with you Ian, whilst we may not be the biggest or most cutting edge of vaping sites ( wouldn't want that myself anyway ) we more than make up for that in other areas.

:)Totally agree Perpy.I have now experienced a number of other forums,and basically i feel they are pants. they only seem user friendly to a small minority of the vapeing community,which in my opinion is crap.However,this forum welcomes new vapers with open arms,and everyone is equal. It is lovely to see such good,positive, and constructive advice being given, to keep new and seasoned vapers alike on the rite track.I have been extremely frustrated posting on other forums,posts get either rubbished or argued with. ::)Where is the fun in that???I thought i took vapeing to seriously,but when i read some of these other forums,its a joke.New members are left feeling either that they cannot post at all,or having to agree with the know it alls,to keep the peace. > I am more than happy here,and will not be ventureing anywhere else again,whats the point???

Perpy you should benefit from the discount so please use it :-)

Well I am glad to see that others were wound up by that thread as I thought it might just be me ;-)
One person in particular made me grrrr. I do think at times that if your face fits then you are welcome !
