Early indications are that glass bottles and childproof caps are going to be mandatory.

The child proof caps are really a joke on anything. My almost 3 yo grandson can get a "child proof" cap off of anything. We put everything that would harm him way up high out of his reach.
ETA: I had to switch boxes where I keep my liquids to something that I could put a lock on.
Mine I always care with me in some form, or make it annoying enough that my child is unlikely to get even close to where it is such as behind a "childproof" cabinet.
Every glass dripper bottle I have ever gotten from any vendor has leaked at some point, it makes shaking them impossible without getting juice all over your fingers. That is why I hate the glass bottles, I end up not being able to shake them enough to make the attempt worth the effort. In addition to not being able to shake, at some point the juice will start leaking from the rubber bulb and still get all over my fingers.
This definitely is not unique to NT's new glass bottles. The only solution I can think of is to get the tiny funnels and transfer the juice to the plastic bottles after you get it.
This is why I haven't ordered anything since the glass bottles came to be.
I will order again, but at the moment I am trying to vape up much of what I already have so that I have plenty of nice empty plastic bottles to clean and have ready.
I really hope all of this is not for naught with the strong push to ban all open systems. Dimitri's reports from the meetings this week did not sound encouraging.

I have a full desk of old 15ml glass bottles that have been abused mightily in my bag and have yet to have one leak.. though again... we are talking about USPS.
So far so good. I have three 60ml glass bottles and all caps fit well without leaking even through vigorous shacking. I do store them in a vertical position though.
I would imagine plumbers tape on the threads would help some. Used to do that when I would mail perfume oils as they would almost always leak if not...5ml glass bottles...
That's a great idea, Megan!!! When transferring my bottles to plastic ones, I always have alcohol pads handy in case any spills down the glass bottle. The alcohol really helps with the oil feeling. I have a "sterile" (LOL) area that is just used for my juice.
Accidentally hit send before I was done! Anyway, guess I'll have to get some plastic bottles!

I've been using the 50ml and they are pretty good.

50ml is the only size I want to use. 100% rating and good prices. Thanks that is perfect.
Just an update on this - we identified an issue with the bottling machine that tightens the cap... we have adjusted the tension-er and will be double checking every bottle in existing inventory for loose/defective caps before packing. I doubt we'll have too many issues in transit going forward.
As far as getting the liquid out of the bottle, I am loading the syringes and pipettes today.
Droppers are still on the slow boat from China though.

Clark, all four bottles arrived in perfect shape. With the way they were package I could have driven my truck over them and they would have been good. I think the priority mail boxes are a good play!
Thanks for the Zotz Nolan and the pipette Clark

What did you get, Marc??
Glad to hear about the boxes. Pro move, right there.
I had to pick up some of the Atlanta and Radioactive since I screwed up and procrastinated on the ACB. I can't make the same mistake twice!
And a refill on the H1N1.
I stumbled on both checking the inventory on ACB and Wakonda.
Hey Clark how about a subscription to a low inventory e-mail report on selected items
And is there any way to purchase an extra label when you buy a liquid for the folks transferring to plastic?

There's 8 products that have low inventory right now, actually... 30ml bottles are particularly low due to some monster wholesale orders! Keep an eye on the "our retailers" link - locations being added every day.
I just checked and there's none near me.
Soon I hope. YAY for monster wholesale orders!!
