Hi All

[browzer]

Hi totally new to e-cigs been searching and reading all the info about them and im even more confused now than when I started looking.
At the moment i'm smoking 30+ roll ups a day and not sure what set up to get. Dont really want to buy off the net as I would like to see touch feel etc before I buy could someone recommend a shop in the Wirral/Merseyside area, I have found a totally wicked store in my area but from what I have read they seem to have quality issues and would prefer to find a retailer that stocks different brands.
Thanks for reading.

Hi Browzer



Sorry, can't help you with recommending offline shops. Hopefully, someone from your area will see your post later today and will be able to advise you.

Hi Browzer.

Which bit of e-cigs is confusing you mate because you can keep it simple without worrying about the details ?

[Anne (fuzzy)]

Just read on another forum that there's one in St. Helens, but who and whereabouts exactly, they didn't say!

Edited to add it's called Eciguk

Which one to get I dont want to jump in too cheap and then realize I should of spent a few quid more for something better but, not too expensive as the wife will be joining me on the e-cig journey so it means I have to buy twice.

If you start first with a riva Kit... once you have begun your journey you can give it to your wife and then you can get on the shiny train with the rest of us

The Riva kit is good www.vapeescape.co.uk/the-ve-riva-1100-deluxe-kit~151,
as is the exhale www.exhalecigarette.co.uk/eXhale-CE5-Starter-Kit-p/ece5sk.htm
imho the Riva is worth the extra £5

Both are more cigar-sized than cigarette-sized. Bigger batteries are better than little ones for lots of reasons, but if you really really really don't think that you (or your wife) can get on with anything fatter than a cigarette then you need a kit with 510 batteries and cartomisers - maybe something like this www.smokshop.com/collections/e-cig-starter-kits/products/copy-of-smok-510-dual-coil-tank

Hi Browzer. I was a 30-40 rollies a day smoker. My last one was on the 15th Jan when my riva kit arrived. It IS a good starter kit.
BUT....Bearing in mind what u said about not wanting the cheapest option i would honestly go go with at least an ego-twist Variable Voltage.
www.vapeescape.co.uk/joyetech-ego-c-twist-vv~367
There is nothing particularly technical about it and is simple to use. Hopefully that way you wont fall into the same trap as me..
ie. Riva kit on the 15th Jan.. Read up on Dual and Variable Voltage devices..
Order a dual voltage device on the 18th Jan... Wished i had ordered a slightly better Variable Voltage device.
Ordered an ego Twist on the 24th Jan and (for now) im happy.

I guess what im saying is its only 16 days since i quit and i have two perfectly good Riva batteries and a dual voltage battery sat mostly idle. They all did their job perfectly but where never quite enough!!

Hi browser, in flux of all the kits now, i too was where you were nearly 2 months ago now, had to buy a kit for me and the other half so price was a big issue.

I bought these kits www.vapeland.co.uk/ego-t-ce5-black-starter-kit-900mah-97-p.asp also in stainless steel.
Yes the clearomizers are copys but they have been great, no leaks, great flavour, great vapour, replaceable heads to keep costs down. A great starting point and unlike most kits they come with a wall charger as well. 900 mah batteries last my other half nearly 2 days and me just over a day and i vape a lot before charging.

They also have the Variable Voltage ego twists to if you want to try them.

Vapeland have helped me so so much, questions answered at all times of day via email and there juices are great, blueberry and mango being our faves at the moment.

They are also just about to get various different coloured drip tips and ce5 tubes in to pimp up your e cig.

Hope this helps.

Any questions, just ask, such an amazing friendly forum here that have the answer to everything.

Hi browzer

If you want an actual shop other than TW then there is a shop in Hanover Street, Liverpool called Rojeans that has quite a good stock of different batteries, juices, etc. The guy that has it is extremely helpful and you will prob be able to try a few things out

Nice one Esme... I was racking my brains at work trying to remember the name of that shop...Also I believe that Royal Vapours now has a shop in Wrexham.. So maybe a case of which is closer, depending how far up the Wirral you are.

[esmecullen]

ditto dave....... I forgot about the Royal Vapours shop

Hello & welcome Browzer

There is a map of Brick & mortar shops on this thread -

allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=shopping&action=display&thread=15653&page=1

As Esme says, Rojeans is most likely the nearest to you. Doesn't look like Royal Vapours are on the map yet.

[browzer]

Thanks for the helpful replies looks like Rojeans is the nearest shop to me. So I am just going to visit there to hopefully get my wife and I kitted out
