Someone else who looks for really good VG liquids is trying a couple from this company. There's a good choice in nicotine levels and also different liquid viscosity for dripping and tanks.
Seems International shipping starts at $9.99.

Products – Open Source Vapor LLC

They're also sending for sample sizes of VG option from this company - they seem to have a huge choice but very little description of flavours, so I'll see what the verdict is!:
Gourmet Liquids - Perfection Vapes

I put these quotes the other way round to show how contradictory your statements are :evil::laugh:

So it has happened, you have dropped from 18mg to 12mg :rolleyes::facepalm:

We both thought you were on 18mg or higher which of course is too high for drippers and dual coil low ohm rebuildables, have to admit though that single coils are easier to deal with build wise, most of my dual coil attempts have failed and I've ended up pulling one out to get the other to work. :lol:

I don`t know why that is contradictory bob ! All i was saying is that i tried 12 mg for the first time and find the flavour of the liquids is better than 18 mg. I have always known that 18 mg is too high to run on dual coils, as i once tried it and nearly coughed a lung up. :laugh:

I am currently changing all my juices from 18 to 12. :)

The first company has good prices and good looking ones, most of the ones in the latter company are self explanatory by the names, but would be good to get a review of them first. I've just ordered Bird's Poo and Nipple Cream from this one to see what they are like :laugh:

Was just looking for the Red one and most retailers have Sold Out or are asking for more, have asked my seller to email me when he has them back in stock
Everywhere sold out fast! Plenty expecting new stock soon, so just down to China and the shipping. VapeRus say they're expecting new stock in the coming week ...could be the end of this week or into next week - we'll see!
Their prices were good (£32 and £30 - think the EU conversion changed) The red one reached me fast enough.

The first company has good prices and good looking ones, most of the ones in the latter company are self explanatory by the names, but would be good to get a review of them first.
I do like to see the supplier describe the flavours better. I'll wait and see what the verdict is! I do like the way the first company sells things though - gives people a proper choice as well as VG, and some of them look promising. I like the sound of some at Highbrow too.
I've just ordered Bird's Poo and Nipple Cream from this one to see what they are like :laugh:
Slutjuice! :blink: Now, could it have been the name of the company and names of the flavours that was the draw? ...hmm! :laugh:
The Bird Poo does sound pretty good though (don't bother looking Terry- you probably won't like it!), but I'll wait to see how you find it!

Thought I'd say how I find the Queen of Puddings! ...It only arrived today, so could perhaps be better with a few days/week to sit, .....but, did you ever get a fresh cream sponge cake with fine icing sugar dusted over the top? I taste blackcurrant jam and a freshly baked sponge followed by fresh cream, and sweet icing sugar 'dust' in my nose as I exhale!
I've so got my toes crossed that I don't get a reaction to blackcurrant! I love it! Bigger bottle getting ordered very soon!

The PMP: I get Mango uppermost, but can detect the Passion Fruit & Papaya underneath. I'd prefer the Passion Fruit to be more prominent, but Mango has a fairly strong flavour. Perhaps the three will merge better after a week. (No matter if it doesn't - ABC is my friend, and will mix with it beautifully!)

I used both in a MOW with a 2.0ohm coil on a Spinner ll at 4v.

Evening all :D

was too tired to pop by yesterday, think all the overtime caught up with me - went to bed an hour after I got home from work :(

-------------------------------

Bob, hope you like the Reo mate. The only possible extra I'd order is a spare bottle, but they do last a long time, as long as you don't overtighten them after filling - a bottle should last a few months.

-----------------------------

Trisha, sorry to hear the coils aren't behaving as they should. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they get better :)

----------------------------

Terry, glad the love affair with rayon has been re-kindled :laugh: Just make sure you build them wicks correctly in future :p:laugh:

---------------------------

Adam, SuperX does some great videos mate, I'm subscribed to his you-tube channel.

----------------------------

Tom, great news that Ron's getting better all the time. Really happy to hear it :D

------------------------------

No sign of my MBV stuff yet either.

Okay i won`t, i can pretty much guess. :laugh:

I'm sure Terry would love it NOT, but he might like the other one, it is a Raspberry Ice Cream - sounds delicious, will have to wait and see.

Evening Squire, thanks for that, should have thought of it myself, but I'm sure it can wait, I'm getting better at making my coils these days, just did a new one for the eXpromizer, 1.7ohm on 29g with some Rayon and it tastes lovely.

Terry, glad the love affair with rayon has been re-kindled :laugh: Just make sure you build them wicks correctly in future :p:laugh:

begins with B and ends in h :lol: the Nipple Cream sounds good though - Raspberry Ice Cream

No worries ..still trying them with different things! :)

Okay i won`t, i can pretty much guess. :laugh:
Thought I'd save you feeling ill! :laugh:

Well you have just convinced me to try some QOP`s trish, it sounds lovely. I need to get some more RY anyway, so will put an order in later. :)
I was surprised at how interesting it was with the different flavours! :) It's only just been made with the VG base, so I can hardly called it steeped!

Just bagged 10 ml of the QOP`s and another 30 ml ry ....., just for a change from steamgunks ry. :)
I'm pretty sure you'll like it! :)
I like the SG RY, but like the CV best. Just got the Boba's Bounty today too - it smells rather nice! May get to try that tomorrow.

I'm sure Terry would love it NOT, but he might like the other one, it is a Raspberry Ice Cream - sounds delicious, will have to wait and see.
I've got a Raspberry Ice Cream from Grey Haze that I haven't tried yet.

My last NT order from Nebraska showed it arriving in NY and on it's way to the destination ...and never changed to arrived UK. It did arrive, but took 8 days, whereas I've had them get here in 6 days usually, and once just 4 days!
Apparently, the USPS tracking can be a bit erratic at times.

Do the MB packages fly direct to the UK from LAX?

Yes it sounds like my sort of vape trish, did you get to try the SDC today, as you were going to ?. Isn`t the bobas another US juice trish ? i know a lot of people rave about it over there. !

Looking at the tracking i would say yes, going off my past orders i should have received mine around the 3rd or 4th so i am at a bit of a loss. It`s good to know they have good customer service though, and they will re-send it free of charge once i have contacted usps

I certainly like it - couldn't put it down!
I need to get some more Mint Choc Vapetto - I get that in 100ml bottles now, so I'll get 30ml of the Queen of Puds too! It immediately reminded me of the days when we got fresh cream sponge cakes from the bakery right after they were put out on sale! They had raspberry jam in them, but the blackcurrant made for a brilliant substitute! :)
I didn't get to the SDC yet ..still in the back of my mind! :) Like the Strawberry Vapetto I returned to recently, it'll be well steeped!
Got quite a few sat waiting to be tried!

Boba's Bounty is Alien Visions, and Vape Escape just got some of theirs in stock including the Boba's. I told you about it last week: I almost added their RY and a Caramel one and realised that I didn't really need them!
Boba's Bounty seems to be one of those that people can't totally pin down to describe! Seems to revolve around a creamy RY/caramel type flavour, so we'll see.

It is nice to know you're covered, but that's not the point when you look forward to something arriving!

I have four big cardboard boxes sat in the hall labelled & ready for the art carrier to collect in the morning! Got that last one retouch varnished sufficiently well to be happy with it and we framed it this afternoon.
I'm going to do a small one as the 16th - shouldn't be too tough to get done, but I never know until they're properly under way! I can then send that by Special Delivery overnight when it's done.
Big sigh of relief once I hear they arrive safely! Nice not to be sat here worrying about getting enough done in time :)

Here is the status bob, not updated since the 2nd.

Okay still some time to go then, my last one took 10 days from the depart LA date that would give you 12/10 which is a Sunday, so I would expect it to arrive at the latest, next Monday.

EDIT Don't know why USPS are routing these through LA instead of Chicago
ALSO My last one from MBV incurred VAT so expect a card instead of the parcel (20% of the cost + £8 RM Fee), that could be the reason it is taking longer

There are 5 ISCs (International Sorting Centres) in the US - Chicago, LA, Miami, New York & San Francisco and one over here at Langley, next to Heathrow, once the parcel departs the ISC it means that they have gone through exit customs and can be loaded on next available plane to the destination country (direct if they have a direct service which LAX does to LHR). I'm sure my 1st order came through Chicago and was quicker than the last one which also came through LA
