Fantastic! I'm still amazed at how Ken is able to respond to each message. I mean yes we hope they'll have a team of customer representatives in the future, but the fact that they're not being lazy and care enough to respond in a timely manner is commendable.
I got a response in less than 2 hours...at a time when I'm sure panic struck investors and customers must be pounding his inbox.
Future prospects seem very very encouraging.
Also, glad that your product was actually defective and you'll be getting a new one!
HI ALL!
Like the two previous posters, I also got this email from Ken about 10 min. ago.
"Filters have cleared customs, and we will receive them tomorrow. The site will not take any new orders until all pending orders are filled. May take a few days before store opens up again. The American Blend Basic Starter Kit will be available next week. Thanks for your patience."
I'm pumped now!!!! GO SFIO!
Amen to that! I did the same thing...she's totally useless and uninformative...got sick of her saying negative things and yet spending countless hours on this board
2 million here.
Same boat pal! The 50% in red is disturbing...but I'm gonna stick with this till it crumbles or sky rockets
EMAIL FROM KEN
I've been sending Ken emails all week...got a response last night, for what it's worth I'm passing it on.
"Hi,
Still waiting for customs. Will have American Blend Basic Starter Kits available at the end of the week.
Ken"
What do you guys think of this?
cheap POS ... for 29$ you can't wait 2-3 weeks, when clearly the company has sent out PR's to assure you of why the delays are occuring...
You don't deserve the product and you most certainly don't deserve to invest in SFIO...pathetic.
Trend is downward BUT you have to ask yourself WHY?? NO PRODUCT!
Trend only tells you what's happening at present time...but to make predictions on where it will go is RIDICULOUS! Both for Senorita and CJ!
If the product starts negative selling speculation will end, however if customs causes issues, then I agree trend will continue downwards.
JUST ticks me off when you start throwing #'s on where the PPS will be tomorrow! That's just silly and fear inducing for everyone!
Ahhh the good ol Senorita is back...haha and with her brings a dark cloud of glooom and doom lol
Munger you said you were leaving...and yet you're still here...pathetic.
VAPOR E-Cig BAN
Thought this was an interesting article and why we may have a bright future:

The website updates are done through an outsourced company, so don't expect them to change things on the site that quickly. I suspect the back orders are being shipped off right away and tomorrow morning we'll see updates on the site...may even see it product availability later tonight
Time to DOUBLE UP!
Good man!
Yes Tomorrow=June 14th.
I thought you were gone? Why don't you go somewhere, where money can be made? Clearly, you've made your predictions! We all believe them...you're the prophet we've been waiting for.
You really saved us bro...feel free to get rich elsewhere...unless of course you feel attracted to SFIO again? lol
The website hasn't update the June 14th date for the dual starter kit, so I suspect we may see something. Although, i wouldn't count on it ... customs may take longer than expected...they're really turning into an pain in the backside
I envy you!!! I wish I had more $$ to spare :( I really want to accumulate and average my PPS down!
Suckssss that I have to watch these prices and not be able to buy...
Disher that's awesome! We appreciate your efforts! (well at least I do!) I remember when you told us about how you were heading out to shoot this video...I was wondering what ever happened to it. So glad, that you finished it...I suspect this is what Tammy was talking about in that PR.
I'm also happy that you know the SFIO team better than most of us here, since you actually work with them.
It definitely takes a lot of courage to run a company in which there is SO much pressure from investors to perform. I guess what we don't understand is that there are MANY factors that go into selling, approving, marketing and distributing a product. If it were that easy, we'd all be doing this.
Anyway, can't wait to check out your new video! I suspect it'll be up when ALL products are available on the site and the site is being marketed. Thanks again.
DISHER, are you making any more videos for SFIO?
WHO THe $uck is this dude? lol ... click his name and you'll see he was created on June 11, 2011 and that this is his only post...
Beware, as these characters are created just to drive PPS down lol at fears expense! Probably Anakln or someone with a new name for this purpose.
Remember, you lose only when you sell! GL! I'm at 0.052 average share price and staying strong, till I see some facts come out! i believe in this product and company.
After this week in the markets, we all need a drink lol
Let's hope next week brings us good news.
Exactly! It's not to please some weak investor...it's to be HONEST and keep customers and investors informed. If they were releasing PR's to pump PPS I'd be nervous....but they are NOT and it makes me more confident long term.
Product release Monday morning/over the weekend - will be awesome in Gap jumping prices Monday and steadily up next week. As long as there is product we'll all patiently wait for the next PR's.
My Experience - I remember entering this stock on May 11th...at that time so many of these posters did not exist...So many new posts from so many people...that's definitely interesting to see.
Second, there was no www.smokereal.com ... and people talked for 48 hours, about how unprofessional everything was, how SFIO needed a new website for product launch, etc....the COMPANY delivered on that criticism.
Third, there were questions about weather there was a product, or all this was just speculation...even when the product was ordered online there was trash talk about how legitimate it was. Some of the comments remind me of the bogus doubts people tried to create by saying, that CC info. was being stolen. Now people have products - it works, it's REAL and its getting good reviews from users here.
I don't know about the future and even coming in when I did, I was very late...but if the past is a litmus test, then the future is undoubtedly bright. I know they're making some errors in product delivery, perhaps due to factors outside their control...but I expect only the best in the coming weeks and months for this company.
To the new investors don't panic...buy only what you're comfortable with and GL!
I thought people just started freaking out this am and hence the high volume...if you see the chart you'll see spikes early am, consistent with PPS drop...later on this increased sell off was followed by logic and a buy sell process occurred.
Today is Thursday, their PR from last Friday said product will start reselling this week. All the newbie investors panicked and sold this am...they probably don't know that the delays were due to issues at customs, now RESOLVED (as per KEN) and that the product will be late but selling on the website soon.
I don't necessarily think its related to any news...in fact I don't expect any PR tomorrow. What I do expect is a slight drop tomorrow...similar to today (assuming no PR), followed by a sizable spike in PPS when the product is selling on the website again.
Stay strong my friends! I agree with Gittinthode...panic and nerves = disaster and losses...remember it's only a loss when you sell it!
Got an email from KEN, as I had send him a message through the website earlier, expressing concerns regarding delays in shipments.
Basically, he assured me that LOTS of product is in the pipeline to the US. He also said that there were some issues at customs, which have now been RESOLVED, and that product will be available by early next week, if no more issues arise.
Finally, he said that their attorneys are looking at all the FDA regulation guidelines and making sure that their packaging, boxes and so on, comply with the FDA regulations before distribution begins. This made the most sense and explains why the company hasn't declared any distribution channels yet.
IMO once all legal issues have been checked, then distribution will go out unabated.
GL!
by launch I mean, announce distribution and go mainstream.
That's ridiculous...Lots of people received their product last week. It's absurd to think that the product doesn't exist or that this is a scam. I do believe that the company is lagging in orders big time and need to get organized before they launch. If they launch and can't deliver product, as we've seen the last week or so, it's going to be very bad for business and investors. Customers will also lose confidence in this company and go elsewhere.
I don't want to be difficult, but this company really needs to get their act together. First, they run out of product, then they release a PR and I'm starting to wonder if they'll even have shipments out this week?! I'm sure it won't matter at the end of the day, but it's unprofessional. I'm also wondering if customs is giving them grief and hence the delay?? Perhaps too speculative on my part.
It's a little frustrating to see, a management team with such a strong CV, having such hiccups. If this is an on going problem, I'm not sure they'll be much revenue. There will however, be some unhappy customers!
I'm hoping and want to see SFIO succeed!
some guy in China probably wrote the document lol
if you go to the starter kit and order it...it puts it in your cart...they haven't update the TEXT that says SOLD OUT, and I'm sure they'll be doing that later today. The product can be ordered now.
I stand strong alongside you brother!
PRODUCT NOW AVAILABLE! - In case you want to order, the starter kits are available again
GO SFIO!
LONGS and INVESTORS...can you kindly refrain from acknowledging or responding to the bashers, because that simply gives them more credence...you know who I'm talking about.
I recommend if someone says something that's not backed by facts and is simply an opinion it should and be ignored. For the new investors, be careful not to fall into the trap of reading the board and getting brainwashed.
Emotions lead to bad decisions...look at the company, product, PR's and make your own decisions, there's a lot of nonsense on these boards.
What I find amazing is that the small spike that we see now is from a very small volume...as soon as the volume starts surging, this will really hit the skies! hold on
HERE WE GO!!!! Fantastic News!
Holding strong...increased shares to 1.5 million today :)
Man...calm yourself down! this is not related to our company...the acronym SFIO, also stands for a Fraud Investigation organization...and that is what you've found.
Nothing to worry about ... go back to work. lol
agreed. people are too caught up in seeing their dimes become quarters...instead of waiting for them to turn into loonies. I can see why they feel the way they do, but the company doesn't put out PR's to stroke our lil piggy bank every monday and friday.
This has beeen a veryyyyyy veryyyyy long weeekend!!!
So glad Tues. is upon us! :) Can't wait to see what the stock does this week.
