I obtained my first order of juice from Mt Baker Vapor. Their prices seem to be... Much lower than anyone else I can find. But the quality seems to be top notch. I have had such a hard time justifying $16-$18 for 30mL bottles after paying roughly $7.50 per 30mL bottle. I'm not really opposed to dropping that kind of money on juices, but it almost feels silly to pay 2-2.5 times the amount for the same size bottle of juice from other vendors.

everyone has there preference, as to how much it should cost for good juice. the vendors i buy from also run in the area of what you have a hard time justifying. which is perfectly fine as 90% of what i vape is diy and cost next to nothing, but for those few special flavors i don't mind it.

the same goes for gear as well, some will be more then content with the basic setups, others are willing to throw down big bucks on mods(my biggest splurges) and specialty tanks(i stick with the regular stuff as it works for me). there is no wrong or right about vaping and what you spend, as long as it keep you off the nasty analogs.

I paid $20 for Johnson Creek. Anything to get me off cheap Chinese juice crap!

BUT I will tell you a secret I wish I knew a year ago. DIY juice. Go to the DIY juice section. You can make a simple batch of your own juice using Capella single flavors and juice from Wizard labs. I just made a batch for $35 better than what I would have paid $120 for. I'm mixing today-- for $50 I'm making what would have cost $250 at JC. Look into it later as you get comfortable with Ecigs... Had I known a year ago-- I tossed away easily $1000 to JC.

GL!

since Im vaping 100% DIY Id have a hard time paying any of the vendor prices for juice anymore, but if I were to order, it would be from ECBlends, they have the best prices, and one of my favorite juices :vapor:

This place has a tea flavor blend...

I love you for bringing this place to my attention. And at only $9 for a 30mL bottle. Wonderful!

(I drink Iced Tea on a daily basis!)

seems like you can find a lot of good cheap liquids...as i'm new to vapeing haven't gotten into diy, but i do think there's one or two liquids that i want to try that are alittle more expensive like bobba's bounty and gorilla juice...other than that, looking for good deals on juices especially if the taste is good

there is a crapload of info on DIY but basicaly i started with pure VG from wal mart and a bottle of flavor and i mixed it at a half mil to a 10 mil bottle of VG (filled with 9.5 mils VG) started there and worked out to full blown mixing its not rocket science and the recipes listed in another forum here are good for you to find something you like

To give you an example of simple DIY (check the DIY section on ECF to learn) I bought 6 Capella single flavors for a little over $30. I bought $25 or so of PG and nicotine from wizard labs with some bottles. So like about $55 inc lots of bottles.
I just "cooked" 250mls of 10mg 95PG/5VG base solution and 100 ml of high 35 90/10 solution to mix with the flavors at set %. So 350ml w/flavors to add. That would have been $240 at Johnson Creek, with less flavor options...

I found Mt. Baker Vapor while researching on how to diy my own juice. Figured i would give them a try since the prices were excellent. I'm vaping their iced tea right now and loving it! No need to diy now!!! Customer for life if prices remain this low!!! I must say, they ship extremely fast also. First class from Washington state to Texas in 2 days...Wow!!! Love their website also, so easy to order :)...I could go on and on...LOL

Ralikar - I vape JC Tennessee - I have searched the DIY section and have not found anything close to it. My second attempt at DIY with FA tobacco flavors was a bust today - I am thinking I need to try 2-3 flavors and not just 1 - but I cant seem to figure out what flavors to blend together. Do you vape JC's tob flavors? Would appreciate any assistance with recipes. Thanks.

I love Mt. Baker Vapor and get most of my liquid from them. I have no desire to DIY and their prices are cheap.
I agree, Mt. Baker Vapor is my go to vendor for juice, great taste and vapor at a great cost. I don't have the time, room, or patience to DIY, not to mention the investment in equipment to do it. Hats off to everyone who does DIY, you never know who will come up with the next Boba's Bounty.
