An Update on Your Bombies & Bigglesworth Orders

Friends,

 

Last week, we announced our intention to go out of business. Moments after, we received an outpour of support from customers expressing everything from gratitude and condolences to even anger. To date, this has amounted to several hundred emails and phone calls. To relive the past 8 years in a matter of days has been surreal.

 

The orders quickly followed, and as if coming full circle, we received our last reddit hug of death. In three days time, we received the equivalent of 6 months' worth of orders by order quantity alone. Likewise, the sheer volume of each order is enough to last most vapers the better part of a year. This was a proper sendoff, and I cannot thank you enough for the support. Once again, we are scaling as best we can and are now working 7 days a week to get your orders out as quickly as possible.

 

Orders placed now will be shipped in 3 weeks. If I can't keep up and meet the April 26th ship date then our online shop will close for good early. If for any reason you wish to cancel your order and receive a refund, please give us a call or email us and we'll quickly do so.

 

Thank you for letting us live the dream for a little while longer,

Michael

 

P.S. I read every email, and every comment on reddit and other channels of social media. I'm terribly sorry if I haven't responded or do not respond, as this out-of-body experience is still very raw for me.

So many good people and good businesses being lost. For some people vaping is a hobby, for others it's a less harmful habit, for others it's business, and for the lucky few it was all of the above. You've made an impression and a difference for a lot of people. Best of luck going forward.

Diane Feinstein is a cunt.

John Cornyn is a Republican Senator of Texas and he co-authored the bill. The bill was passed under Republican leadership of the White House and Senate. Don't fool yourself thinking this is anything other than bi-partisan. We're an easy target for both political sides.

don't piss her off or she'll stick her finger in your bullet wounds.

Don't be fooled, this bullshit is a bi-partisan bill signed by Trump.

Are you guys still accepting orders? Years ago I couldn't get my friends to shut up about Bombies and it was the first juice I ordered online. Have a lot of good memories drinking with the boys and passing around a bottle of nana cream to drown our RDAs with.

Would you guys ever consider releasing your recipes for DIYers by any chance? It's a shame to see such a beloved company leave.

I was just thinking.. I've saved a LOT of money mixing my own ejuice from 1-shots, and it's easy with just pg/vg, the 1-shot concentrate, (& if you like, nicotine).

Have you thought about selling your ejuice flavors as 1-shots? I used Mom & Pop's Sweet Strawberry and OMG ejuices for years, until I found out they sell concentrates of their ejuices for a less than the actual ejuice. It's 2x the cost from a year ago but still saves a good bit of money. It'd be great if EVERY ejuice manufacturer did this, & we could tell the government (who's damaging MILLIONS of Americans- either by taking away a MUCH safer option than cigarettes containing 7,000+ carcinogenic ingredients & American's jobs- ironically IN THE NAME OF HELPING AMERICANS have MORE MONEY during covid) to STICK IT.

Bombies wasn't my first ADV, but it was my last ADV. I never fully understood the amount of love you received from r/ecr until I tried nana cream for the first time, and then it all became so clear. You were a great part of this community and I wish nothing but the best for you and everyone involved. <3

I still have a years worth of Bombies already. I still put in two orders for one bottle each of my favorites. Predator Orion and Bombies Nana Cream. They’ve got me through some real challenging times.

Going to miss you guys.

If I had to guess I'd say I've probably been through at least a hundred or so 120ml bottles of Prairie in the past couple years.

Just placed my last order : (

Thank you for the best adv, got me off the stinkies.

Thank you for everything Michael and the Bombies team! It really is a shame our governments are so against vaping but so allowing of cigarettes. I am so proud of everything you guys have been able to accomplish, and am very excited for the next chapter of your life. <3

Awful situation notwithstanding, I'm glad to hear that there's been such a big response to your closing down sale.

When I quit smoking back in 2013, I spent about a year vaping "meh" flavours. Nana Cream was one of the first "premium" liquids I ordered and it completely changed my outlook on vaping - not only could I avoid smoking, I had found something I enjoyed more.

Subsequently, I've had an exciting career so far in the vaping industry and it was independent companies like yourselves who made me realise this was even a possibility.

It's really sad to see you guys go, but I'm looking forward to tearing open that final parcel of Nana Cream when it lands with me!

I am truly sorry for this to happen to you. For 42 years I was lucky enough to own my own business and two years ago, I too, had it torn from me by an unfair government business practice. So I feel for you. Hopefully the number of orders( mine included) will allow you to stay afloat for awhile until you move on to hopefully a new venture that you can take equal joy in.
