Perfect Customer Service

Great selection, fast delivery. I had one problem with the couriers (but not Electric Tobacconist itself) which ET sorted out immediately and all’s good. Absolutely top-notch customer service. Can’t fault them. Highly recommended!

I’ve always had five star treatment and long time customer.

I’ve always had five star treatment from this company and excellent customer service. There choice of products you can choose is good, there’s devices for everyone from beginners to advanced. I have been a customer for years now and they are always my first choice in vaping and heated tobacco products. One of their staff was particularly helpful to me with a recent problem I had with an item not delivered but it was Royal Mail’s fault and not theirs.

I am an elderly lady and stopped smoking a few years ago. I turned to vaping and very glad I chose this efficient company to order from. There is a brilliant range of products at very competitive prices and delivery has always been consistently fast. The ordering and payment process is very easy - even for me! I wish more companies were this helpful and efficient.

Pricing is competitive.

I had bought liquids for a long time without any trouble and was happy with the good service. In August 2024 I bought an Innokin Adept Zlide from them which was faulty out of the box. They did not make it easy to deal with a faulty item and I ended up repairing the unit myself (it was a faulty Z coil). Now, after just 6 months the battery is not holding charge for very long and seems to be slowly failing (it never lasted as long as the identical vape I bought elsewhere a few years back). So, for liquids they are very good as not much can go wrong.

Hi James, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry you encountered an issue with your Innokin Adept Zlide kit. Upon reviewing your correspondence with our team, we can confirm that the correct procedure was followed. We inquired whether the coil was primed and requested a photo of the leaking tank to assist with troubleshooting, but unfortunately, you declined to provide this. We then offered our Freepost returns service so our team could test the kit and, if it was confirmed faulty, proceed with an exchange, credit, or refund. However, we were pleased to hear that replacing the coil resolved the issue shortly after and that your kit was functioning properly. If you require further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. Best Regards - ET Team

Hassle free and fast delivery.

I have used this business a few times now and they have been great each time. I found their prices very reasonable, deliveries were fast and their website easy to navigate and quite straight forward when placing an order. I will be buying from them again.
