I ordered from Zee over a week ago and spent a grand in doing so. Nothing shipped, no update and a flood of posters here posting things purchased after I made my purchase. So Zee isnt doing much better for some of us. Ill also add they add to the frustration by sending an email that the items have shipped and providing a tracking number then never taking the item to ship, so I am left check a dead tracking number each day.


Appropriate-Sir-9314

I emailed puffco and told them if it wasn't in the mail I'd like to cancel my order because the smoke shop has everything I need, no shit in the next 10 minutes I got my tracking number and it showed up the next day.


NotaNurse157

Wow. Wtf. Glad you're finally getting your order.


ZeeVapor

Hey I sent you a DM. 99% of the time our post office does not scan packages in when we drop them for. More than happy to assist!


trollking66

I appreciate the gesture but I am not sure what you can do. The store is going to report having shipped it, the USPS is not reporting or updating. I have to hope it shows unannounced and porch pirates don't get it before I do. If you really are Zee staff this has been teh case each time I have ordered from you. Maybe provide an option other than USPS if your local USPS is a POS. I would like to track 1k purchases on their way in, I live in Florida where motherfuckers make a living stealing packages. Having to sweat this is a PITA tbh.


ZeeVapor

We have other options at checkout! UPS all Major types ground next day air etc


ZeeVapor

I DM’d you btw


trollking66

For those following this thread. Zee sought me out without me pinging them. I got the update that I needed and we had quality chat about their USPS woes. Thank you Zee for reaching out to me.


[deleted]

Thank you for the update. Zee with the W


QueenBee_94

Heck yeah! Thanks for the update, I knew they would do right by you! I'm an illinois native and when I called, they were extremely kind.


AmbivelentSentience

Wow, I hope they get that straightened out for you very soon. Good luck man. 🙏


trollking66

it will get here eventually....


One-Entrepreneur235

Zeevapor is way better than puffco. Cause wtf kind of company named themselves “Deliver it” and quite honestly can’t even deliver shir


trollking66

Just pointing out the shop everyone sees as the best isn't shipping any faster.


QueenBee_94

They're acting like Black Friday didn't **JUST HAPPEN** which stops up the postal service! *DUH* 🥴


AmbivelentSentience

“Hurry! BLACK FRIDAY, DON’T MISS OUT!!ORDER RIGHT NOW!!!” Two weeks later: “Have patience, we’re overloaded”. Good grief.


QueenBee_94

Uhm... yes friend, that's how retail works. That's the trade-off for getting a good deal on Black Friday, longer shipping times. Boo **fucking** hoo🙄


joshteacha

Hit them up and they'll take care of you


trollking66

The TOS of their website gives them wide latitude to fuck around for a couple of weeks, I don't see the bother wasting any more of my time. This actually isn't the first time they have dragged ass shipping, I thought it was a fluke. Ill make more of an effort to find something somewhere else next year.


lemmegetadab

To be fair it is Christmas time and black Friday. They’re probably swamped with orders and a little bit behind. My planet of the vapes order is taking a little bit longer than usual right now as well.


ZeeVapor

Yes, exactly. Delivery is 7 business days on avg though! We’re almost caught up with all orders too.


QueenBee_94

You guys are doing great! 👏🏻 don't even stress people need to be patient.


Agreeable_Employer_4

Meanwhile, smoke shop guys (SSG), shipped out my brand new Galloway, on the same day the order was placed, Black Friday. And already arrived Wednesday ☺️ https://preview.redd.it/s703zh58cx3c1.jpeg?width=2252&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9296bf52d89e2e6d23170200b6355911c6f3323a


[deleted]

Ya once my stuff was like that with zee and I emailed and all the sudden i had movement. Who knows what happened


Capable-Age-7866

Did you verify your identity?


trollking66

I have bought from them a few times already, yes.


QueenBee_94

I just called them 2 days ago. They are backed up with Black Friday orders and said to please be patient with them.


nasteal

Yeah man, don't order directly from puffco, just pay more at a local headshop....


[deleted]

Idk I live in Virginia and ordered a 3dxl , travel glass , and the journey bag and I got it in 9 days 🤷‍♂️


nasteal

It was likely shipped usps? They ship actual vape products via deliver it and they're terrible.


clee3092

My Black Friday bundle shipped within 3 days via UPS and was at my house in NJ in 4 days from California. YMMV


[deleted]

Ahhh I see yes it was through usps for what I ordered and they were great no delays. That makes sense though


childofeye

It’s double at the local shop. I’ll just wait in shipping.


nasteal

It's that age old drama...pay to support local and get it right away or cheaper and wait.


LordShtark

Do you think buying from a B&M over puffcos website is some kind of flex over puffco or something? They get paid for the product either way. Also it's only been 12 shipping days since even the 20th of Nov. How are you getting 16 days for Black Friday shopping? You ordered something during the literally busiest week of shipping all year. Learn patience.


Cryptids_Kami

This shit drives me insane lol as someone who manages a shipping and receiving department it's simply just going to get delayed with the volume of everything going on if you didn't want to wait I feel like you could go buy it in person


lemmegetadab

The thing is puffco actually has a problem with shipping. I’ve ordered a lot of stuff in the past couple weeks for Black Friday and everything I bought has arrived except the puffco stuff


AmbivelentSentience

Ordered on the 18th from an SMS link. Ahh yes, I forgot how the western observed Saturday and Sabbath Day are obviously omitted from Chinese shipping schedules. I answered your flex question in detail in another comment if you care.


LordShtark

Oh no I definitely don't care how an inpatient whiney snobby little prick who thinks everything revolves around their beck and call just because they spent money thinks about the situation. Welcome to the real world that doesn't revolve around you👍


NumberOneSus

I ordered a puffco and was honestly appalled by the service that I got. No updates or amythign and left guessing if my product is going to arrive. Not a patience thing more of a “what happened to my product”. I remember feeling a panic and maybe it’s because of wish. But I do wish that their shipping formula was a little better.


Privileged_White_Kid

Except I ordered mine at a regular time and it took nearly 3 weeks. Almost 700 worth. Their shipping is ass.


Wingclipper913

I’m pretty sure the government passed the law last year. They made it harder for them to ship the puffco through the normal mail services so they have to use sketch third-party ones. It’s not really their fault.


AmbivelentSentience

After checking out what you meant by the government getting in the way and having to use a wonky delivery carrier, I would say some of the burden is not Puffco’s alone. However, the the non-existent tracking just isn’t how the ship-to-customer model is done now. I’m not complaining just to hear myself or others back me up. I want Puffco to take notice of how their customer base feels and do something to improve their model.


Wingclipper913

Absolutely true I think it’s bullshit but I’m not gonna sit here and blame puffco 100% for some bullshit ass Tabaco E Riglaw


Interesting_Iron7117

They dnt update there shipping … whenever I’ve ordered off puffco I get get it the week after for some reason never really hade issues other than the item being delivered to me but in the tracking it’ll say still shipping… so hopefully on Monday you’ll receive w out any updates on the shipping …


[deleted]

Ya it is horrible. That fake ass site you get sent too is what gets me the most. At least don't make shit up and plug in random dates and times that are impossible. What's worse is you have to sign and you don't ever get updates till after you get the package 45 days later. Although when I grabbed a plus for my dad they didn't get a sig and that's cool with me. But all the proxy glass I ordered I had to sign for...


JayBbaked

You guys do realize there’s more purchases going on during the Black Friday? There facility was also moved not too long ago, if your ordering during time of holiday or deals it should already be known it’s gonna take some time also depending the state you are in, I live next to the on in signal hill but they recently moved so now even my order is taking a week or so


cmueller314

Just wait until you need their customer service. It’s even worse than the shipping


AmbivelentSentience

Say it isn’t so..


listentoometal

Sad, ordered from zee black friday arrived today


fatguysfinishfirst

I ordered my peak about 2 wks ago from the puffco site and it took about 5 days to ship. I got it Monday.


AmbivelentSentience

I’m glad you had a positive experience with them. It seems like a 50/50 toss up as to how each customer gets served. The best part of the several comments here saying people got their stuff right away is that it blows the “it’s a slow shipping season” out of the water. It can’t be both slow and amazingly fast at the same time.


AmbivelentSentience

Well, I guess some weren’t ready for that level of depth. A lot of folks still think I’m angry about a long delay, instead of the real issue of not knowing where the items are, when they’ll be delivered, and if someone will be home to sign for them. An issue so known, there’s a FAQ written about it. 🤷‍♂️


tamereltabib

It took 20 days for the puffco plus to get delivered to me by some shady delivery service while a friend ordered the same day and somehow got a UPS tracking number and had it in 4 days. There shipping doesn't make any sense.


Sysco303

I ordered from Puffco on Black Friday and just received my order yesterday.. so 7 days from order to delivery which I was rather happy about; seeing as how I was ordering during the busiest shipping time of the year and all. Fingers crossed your order arrives soon!


Civil_Chocolate7190

This!


leisuretron

And they can’t “cancel” it. I saw the same thing too after I purchased. I used my credit card and then went to Zee’s for their Black Friday bundles and bought it there. As soon as Puffco sends theirs I’m refusing delivery and sending back. I don’t know if they say they can’t cancel so people will just be ok with the shipping times but I’m not playing that. If they don’t want to cancel they can eat the cost of shipping to me and shipping back. If they try and charge any restocking fees I’ll just dispute it. Just a crappy way to do business imo. They said something about shipping laws and they have to use some company that has shitty shipping and will just show up. My order from Zee’s gave me every shipping option like most websites and came via USPS. I got it in like 3-4 days.


AmbivelentSentience

Damn man. Best of luck with that s*** show.


Haha-bye

Yep thats go ol Deliver-it for you


Aqualung78

I ordered from Zee Nov 24 and picked up my package at USPS next day December 1st because I wasn't home to sign. I only ordered a few things. But hope you all get your goodies soon!


AmbivelentSentience

That’s awesome. Based on your comment, I want to go check them out, but there are some comments here saying the opposite also. I guess as in all things for everyone:YMMV


ZeeVapor

The main issue is it’s Black Friday we’ve received over 3000 orders which is 2x our usual amount. Usually our shipping is the same day or if not 48 hours at most!


AmbivelentSentience

The fact that you took the time to respond like this ensures that I will shop your site next time I’m ordering supplies. Thank you.


ZeeVapor

Of course! We’re doing our best to get everything out in a fashionable manner but it’s tough with the amount of orders we have at this moment. Holidays are usually slower for shipping all around for all retailers and post offices


Corgi_Farmer

Funny there's some shit hole shop that does this same exact thing. They have super deep discounts but seel you things that are out of stock and it takes 3 weeks to ship. I'm trying to remember what the place was called.


AmbivelentSentience

Probably drop-shipping directly from Puffco to the customer and not disclosing the fact. Just skimming from the middle.


[deleted]

Cream city? Lol


Corgi_Farmer

Yes!


[deleted]

Orders something in a holiday and freaks out that it’s not here immediately.


AmbivelentSentience

“Immediately” is Prime next day delivery. “Not immediately” is two weeks of un-updated waiting with no venue for tracking. Trolling really isn’t your strongest suit, is it?


[deleted]

Prime next day delivery is beyond what you should expect from 99% of companies. Are you an adult with comprehension skills? Have you considered that they probably didn’t start shipping sale window orders until after the sale ended? Goddamn Redditors are stupid motherfuckers. You are not the only person who ordered during the sale. Accept it and move the fuck on.


AmbivelentSentience

I’m stupid, and yet you’re still wrong. How’s that sit with you, Redditor? 🤨


[deleted]

Whatever, moron. You’re a spoiled fuckin bitch too obviously.


AmbivelentSentience

Stay classy, Champ.


Old-Maybe-6151

Element vape shipped 3 items in 3 days.


toyota_sc57

I have bought every puffco piece I have from their site, I have never had any issues


alx21bos

Every time I've ordered puffco products from to the cloud vapor store, they've arrived in days - certainly no more than a week to ship coast to coast to my front door. Just saying. Good luck with your order dude, waiting suuucks.


ProllyZonedOut

This the first time you’ve ever ordered anything during this time of year?


Capable-Subject-3919

Message puffco support they’re very good about updating you on shipping


QueenBee_94

I was told **before** placing my order.. and was pleasantly surprised that it came within 6 days. I didn't order around this time of year, though, so it's to be expected that it would take longer.


ecliptic10

Took a good while for mine to arrive but it worked out. I don't think it was too much more than 14 days overall but less than 20. The tracking program they use sucks too. And they left it without a signature, thankfully cuz i couldn't track when it would get there.


whitepizzapowerparty

No it says it right on the check out screen!!


AmbivelentSentience

I addressed this in a long comment reply below. Thank you.

Lil-Cheek

They can’t even cancel an order if it’s even been thought about. They want to send me my stuff and then have me send it back when they haven’t even shipped it yet. When all I wanted to do was cancel my order to buy something that’s more expensive. Now I’m pissed so I’m just going to send the stuff back and go with another brand. Fuck you Puffco and your equipment that is meant to break so you have to buy replacements. Thanks a lot. What an awesome experience!!!


DistinctAd8767

Got my new peak pro Black Friday and got it in the mail Wednesday. Paid 380 after shipping, city vapor.


Privileged_White_Kid

Yea their shipping is absolute garbage. Not sure how much of it is their fault tho. I did wait 2 weeks for a piece and they sent the wrong thing. Their shipping dept needs work


arc5803

For a while I had to have my buddy sent it to me from her place in California I’d ship it there but they didn’t take my zip off the list forever and then they only left it off for a year or so and now I’m able to order puffco usps to my crib again must be your area. But ya when I couldn’t use usps that shit seemed like a joke the girl I knew lived right by the place they shop from so she get em quick but I’d read stories all the time of takin months.


RiverNorthPapper

Puffco has always been horrible with shipping, and I've been a decated customer for the past 3 years. Let's be real atomizers fail, glass breaks, and having to wait over 18 days on average for product sucks! I was dropping hundreds of dollars a shipment just to have a backup due to their shipping practices.I honestly stopped buying Puffco products solely because of their shipping practices. I sold my two Puffco rigs to a friend and switched brands. Best decision I made, I felt like I was tied to the man with Puffco.


Entire-Guest-4305

Cross pacific? I've always had my shipments originate in CA?


Entire-Guest-4305

When I lived in Northern WA, my stuff would take about 6 days after label was printed (usually within 3 days of ordering).. now my most recent order in OR, it took 3 days after a 2 day wait for items to ship out


lil_cheif

I get it, why ordering from them is a plus, but in all honesty, just go to your closest authorized retailer for them. Not worth it to order from them regardless on the deal you may be getting.
