I'm sure some of us are looking at a few things that were bought due to prices or concerns that we won't likely use. I'm guessing we'll end up swapping things here on ECF classies down the road. Hopefully each of us can end up with more pieces that fit our individual style.

I didn't spend much on mods or toppers I don't already know, so worst case I can use them to help out another vaper, either locally or through a PIF here.
Maybe that's the best case!

That's what I am thinking. I bought 5 eGo-L drippers for $0.85 (yup, CENTS) each and will likely never use them. Same with 5 x $5 KFL+ clones (I have 3 authentics). I would not hesitate in giving those away to someone that really needed them.

I bought to be prepared, I could care less about making $$$ off this stuff.

Makes me feel good when I help someone stay off the butts!

Part of the Deeming regulations is that anything that is intended to go in e cigarettes fall under the deeming regulations. So i say prep flavors you like just in case.

Sure in a bad situation you can get Loran oils, flavors from the store.

But the question is will the flavors blend with eJuice and not seperate.

I tried using Loran oils once and woukd never do it again. Tge flavor was horrible. Never could get tge Pecan Praline ejuice vapeable

So i say get real ejuice flavors and not worry about whether you can vape tge stuff or not.
I sure hope you were not trying lorann's oilbased flavorings. Lorann's also offers water soluble flavoring which can be used for ejuice. Never use any oils to try to vape with.

Not quite sure. Once 100mg litres of nic are impossible to find without paying a fortune and 30ml bottles of premade juice are taxed another $5-10/bottle, there will be LOTS of unused mods and tanks on Craigslist and eBay on the cheap IMO.

NIC is the only thing that people should be worrying about IMO regardless of deeming, taxation, etc.
They may be on Craigs list. They wont be on eBay. They pulled all of my eCigarette listings on eBay two weeks ago.

That wasnt the problem. It blended perfectly. I added sweetener ,4-5:,times and couldn't sweeten flavor enough to vape

It was what you said about separation and not being vapable
"But the question is will the flavors blend with eJuice and not seperate."
that lead me to believe you were trying their oils for vaping.

There are very few flavors that Lorann's has that I would ever attempt to use for vaping. Lorann's cream cheese icing and colorless bubblegum are the ones I have used and liked.

:)

The flavor blended fine. The flavor was simply HORRIBLE,

The only flavors I'd be concerned about are the custom blends made by vape businesses. Off the shelf flavorings such as TFA shouldn't be an issue.

If by "custom blends" you maybe mean like the OSDIY One Stop Flavors and One Stop Blends that are proprietary to them...the owner said they'll be around for as long as they're in business. Also their regular flavorings will be, too, (ie. TFA, CAP, etc.) since they're used in baking, candy making, etc., as well as vaping. Said the only ones that might not be available longterm...are the tobacco flavorings different manufacturers make.

That's exactly what I meant - the flavoring we use most all the time is from a business, Azure Vaping, that is now closed. Their Hypermint was a blend Rob spent quite some time developing, and we had to scramble as they were closing up. I'm awfully glad they gave me a great deal on the gallon which resides in my fridge!

That was really nice of them! I know many people were sorry they went out of business.

Hopefully, that won't be happening with OSDIY since a good part of their business is selling flavorings to those who bake and make candy as well. If I find out in the future it might though...I'll definitely be loading up on a few gallons from them, too, like you did from Azure. :thumbs:

Love osdiys. Their blue raz slushie is legendary and they can't keep it in stock.
I mix their lucky shot blend with baked cinnamon roll. 2:1 ratio. Perfect.
The cinnamon smoothie blend is OK and sort of like a cinnamon red hot.
Going to try the strawberry and cream in my next order.

I am not a flavor chaser. I bought a 120 ml bottle of my flavor for $14. I use 2 ml per month. It's going to last 5 years. The FDA gangsters may have decided not to regulate flavors as harshly as devices and pre mix but others may know better than me.

I'm not done stocking up but a good part of the way there. But then I could have done nothing until now and everything is available as before. I do enjoy the peace of mind and I'll never trust governments to let me vape in peace, Trump or otherwise.

Buying nic should be a no brainer. A liter of 100 mg nic that costs $50 will last me 4 years. If I had kept smoking the cigarettes would have cost $12,000 (carton a week). Nic is the deal of the century, literally worth its weight in gold to a former smoker.

Yep. We use about 33ml per month, so if it holds up well it would cover about 10 years.

Not a purchase for the faint hearted I suppose, but it's been my wife's ADV for four years and mine for nearly three.

I recently found a bottle in the freezer I put away as a test a couple years ago, mixed it up and found it identical to recent stock. I am hopeful!

I run through almost 70ml/mo of flavorings. I buy the two flavors for my ADV by the pint and quart
emoji5.png
u need a super concentrate flavoring for your adv. I vape 600ml/mo total estimating high and my preferred rf sc flavor recipes and single flavors come in at 3.5% of that
Wow. How much juice does that make?

I only run though 100-120ml of juice a month. :blush:
that's about a week for me afaict
