Note: I wasn't sure where this should go but if there is a more appropriate location for this and someone would please move it there, I would appreciate it.
While browsing e-cig.com a little while ago, I was going to try some of their carts and buy an E9 battery, but changed my mind when I went to checkout. I found that the initial page that collects all of your address and contact information, was not secured. I then began to wonder, with all of these people reselling and putting up websites overnight to get into the e-cig business, how rampant this issue may be.
As such, I just wanted to bring this to everyone's attention and suggest that you be careful when buying online in general, but extra careful with vendors in this business because it seems like there are quite a few 'fly-by-night' resellers popping up on a daily basis (some of whom could care less about the security of your personal information).
It is highly likely that once you proceed to the payment info page at e-cig.com, that they have that portion secured, but with how damaging idenity theft can be and how common it is becoming, I'm not willing to take a chance with what amounts to 90% of the information someone needs to steal my identity (name, address, phone, email). I sent e-cig.com a request pointing this out, but I thought it would be a good idea to share a word of caution with my fellow vapers.

Now every page you go to on their site, is secured. I guess overkill is better than oversight
