I've been getting 555 from several places over the past year. Recently I've gotten two orders in a different packaging style (child-proof bottle, image on the label), and:

This is NOT the REAL 555!

I can vape this stuff, it's not horrible, but it's not the 555 I know and love. Can anyone recommend a place that still has the good stuff?

Thanks!

Agreed. I keep trying other flavors but nothing comes close to 555. I think it may be more due to the awesome throat hit than the flavor.

Actually I noticed something a little while ago about changing the name because of copyright issues. Maybe the real one will continue to be 555 and the rest will have names like T5 and 3x5.

I AGREE ABOUT THE BOTTLE, PLAIN WITH THE LITTLE STICKER.
I ordered vapemasters, 2 bottles- it's not 555, it's chocolate. 2 bottles from V4L- it's HC 555 (just ok)
I've found MFS to be the closest to the one I'm referring to.
I had T5- this is def not 555, that's what mist-stix sent me! It was horrible! Not sweet or nutty.
vaping.com has Kanger but not quit it.
Anyone tried vaporbomb?

I know what you're saying. I've paid high dollar for juice that wasn't any better than PG with flavoring (and nic, of course). The funny thing about the best 555 was that it was $9 for 30ml! Also, most of the "quality" stuff for the 555, they're trying to imitate the real 555 and nobody knows what it is. So, if you started with the home-made 555, you have never tasted the real thing. In fact, the vapor renu I tried puts chocolate in theirs, it's not anything like the real 555.
JMO...Oh well, I'll keep searching.

Agree about paying for quality. However, I personally have been getting the juice that I love much cheaper than that. If I've been spoiled by the low prices so be it. I won't complain about a higher price if a supplier has the "right" version of the liquid and if they can actually manage to keep it in stock.
