and now the anticipation...

Sorry I'm not updated on the news, but what kind of ploy did they pull off?

Apparently a long time ago (I have only been vaping for 2 months and it was way before I started), they were trying to figure out how to get more ppl to order from them and instead of concentrating on making the best flavor ever, they set out to make the worst. They made a crab juice. From what I understand, it worked because people started ordering, then they ordered other flavors to try in addition to the crab....so it was really just a smart move for them at the time. I think its what put them on the map in the first place.

i also have a suprise order being shipped from a vendor in canada. He liked one of my posts so much he paid me in juice to use it on his blog! hes sending me like 3 bottles, no idea what size or flavor really. but hey free juice !

AIV is on my list for my next order. All i do is order a sampler from here or there of a flavor i might like and when i find one i like i buy BIG bottles.

i have about 200ml of juice that im steeping right now, and another 100ml or so that im vaping off of. god...too many flavors!

I was going to enquirer on how to do this after I do about 20 more juice reviews on the ejuice I now have. I know some reviewers are sponsored (sent juices and equipment) by several companies to try and review. Many think they would be biased by this. I think musicians are... but they are kinda paid to be. If you get them in a one to one that admit to flaws and or like other brands better... but depending on how good they are when the contract is up they can go with who they choose you know? Anyway... I would give an unbiased review. I will let you know exactly what it tastes like to me no matter what. I have scruples. Just liek I LOVE jv but... some of the flavors I have tried I would deem an absolute fail.

It's definitely funny they got their name that way. I wonder what kind of person would actually order that crab crap.

i search youtube for flavor reviews. sure they get free juice for the purpose of reviewing it, but i dont really pay attention to anything they say beyond what it tastes like. if its a flavor im interested in i order a small bottle. if i like it i go back for 30ml or more.

yes im kinda picky, still trying to find a cream soda that is close to IBC cream soda, so far Mt baker has the closest. Though i buy and add vanilla to it. I pick flavors based on weither or not i would like the flavor in its real world counterpart. I.E. i dont order cheesecake flavors because i would never eat cheese cake. but along the same lines, i love cheddar cheese, just dont think it would make a good vape.

The same people who order pizza and bacon. I don't think they are going into thinking it will be an adv...I think they just enjoy the novelty of it. And maybe they also want to play a lil prank on friends. I see plenty of reasons to order offbeat flavors.

Cheddar cheese probably would be pretty terrible in a vape! lol. But I have definitely found that I like some vapes that I do not like their food counterpart to, and I despise some that I love their food counterpart to. Coffee for example....LOVE the drink, but haven't found a juice that measures up. And I don't love citrus to eat (not too much anyway), but I seem to really enjoy citrus vapes. Be open to surprises...thats when you find your favorites.

you make a good point robin. I just use my food tastes as a starting point.

Though ive heard so much good things about bob marley blood, gumby blood XTC and some others from fuzion i ordered a sample pack. and i hate strawberries as a food, but love strawberry flavored soda and kool aid.

that gets me thinking, ive got some mulberry TREES, not bushes behind my house. Seriously they are easily 75 feet tall. makes me wonder if i could make a concentrate this summer. hmmm now that would be tasty!

I wonder if people would buy a flavor that captured the smell and taste of a "stink bomb". Now that would be a real novelty juice.

you ever smelled velarian root? i bet it could be done...velarian root extract loaded with vanilla and cinnamon red hots. idk if velarin root extract would smell like the root. the herb itself smells worse than dirty diapers.

Doesn't "The Griffin" by fuzion vapor have valerian root in it?

I was thinking of the old fashioned bottled stink bombs they sell at novelty shops. If people seriously want to vape crab juice, I imagine they would be curious about stink bomb as well.

I think if they make it, people will buy it... Haha

 

[MamaBird]

Remember the Harry potter Jelly beans....they actually made disgusting flavors and people bought them like they were going out of style! My son just had to have them a few years ago! He would try one, make a face and gag, start laughing and try another one! Funny how its so hard to get him to eat spinach, but he will try a grass flavored jelly bean no problem! There is definitely a market for gross juices...

(grass was one of the tamer flavors....)

 

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

I believe it does, but only for the vitamins or energy supplements afaik.

im talking about soaking a couple pounds of velarian root in VG/pg for a couple months and then straining it to make a concentrate. it would smell godawful.

lol could probably be used to induce vomiting

 

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

Syrup of ipecac would do the trick nicely there... you really only need one drop..seriously. I was a life guard back in the day, had to use it once because i couldn't clear out the water someone swallowed too much of...one drop on the tongue the water came out. Dam near instantly too.

lol and eww glad it worked tho

Well it's people who just want to know. You know? I got a pizza pif from someone here. It tasted like pizza! Just was not what I want to vape. btw pm me if you wanna know... lol I will pif that one

i just read a bunch of the posts, man this thread is so derailed. But i guess when i created it it was kind of a fluff thread anyways.

New topic!

How you pick flavors!(or the weather i suppose)
