@leftyandsparky - I've never gotten nic base that's not been clear when I received it. Even some Wizard Labs 60mg nic base that I found in a closet last August (in the unopened 500mL bottle, in its original outer shipping box) that I purchased in April 2016...was still extremely close to being crystal clear after all that time! I've been using it since August, and it's fine! I'd opened and started using the other 500mL bottle when I first got it that April. I remember it was totally clear then. So I assume the 2nd one I found recently was, too, then.
So, maybe yours is "new" nic, but it's been exposed to heat, or light, or oxygen that's affected it. Just my
though.
ETA: I will add that every bottle of nic base I've received...has been either in a very dark brown to black, nearly opaque, plastic bottle, or in a white or black HDPE totally opaque bottle. I've never gotten any in a bottle like yours...that appears to be LDPE, PP, or HDPE that's translucent. I'm betting that has something to do with the color change, since it allows light to possibly affect the nic base inside it.

I have some older nic that is that color, and it smells and vapes fine (to me anyway). It was stored out of the freezer for a while. Agree that perhaps it was exposed to light/heat at some point.
Im just upset that I ordered it last week and it came this way. I've got it in my freezer and it will be a few years before it gets used.
I ordered one from Amazon not realizing that it was coming from china but after weeks of waiting, it got delivered in a different state than what I live in. Instead of trying to do something about it, the seller offered a refund. I was disappointed and needed to look for one. Thanks for the update on FT.
If you didn't put it in glass bottles for freezer storage, I'd recommend doing that, if you don't want it to change more. LDPE, PP, or HDPE aren't best for freezer storage of nic base either.
I received the two geekvape lucid kits yesterday. They are a lot like the vaporesso swag with the battery cap on top and will only fit smaller tanks. I didn't try the included tank yet but the crown minis I bought fit on it. It's really a nice looking mod but I wish the fire button was a little bigger.
Have you contacted the seller?
No, I'm just going to keep it. Of all the liters I have bought, this is the first time I've received something that looks like this. It shows on the website that the nicotine has color to it. I'm sure it will be fine, I was just surprised by it.
If anyone needs any TFA flavorings...Flavor Jungle has a 15% off sale going on for them.

I find myself vaping slightly more, but not much, and it could be because I cut my nic by another 0.5 mg the last time I mixed a batch of base.
IMO, it means there has been some oxidation. Whether you would notice this, or find it objectionable, is a very subjective matter.
Okay - With the assistance of the "Vape Lady" @JCinFLA 
found a few tanks I NEEDED at a reasonable price at MFS this weekend . . . Placed order Monday morning at 10 AM - got 10% OFF w/Free Shipping too . . . By 1 PM that day got notice the package was shipped via USPS . . . Guess what, the package is being delivered today . . . 
Now - Got one more package I 'll be getting soon for "My" Stash, so the only thing I NEED, to be totally ready, is a Gallon of PG/VG when they are in stock from Bulk Apothecary . . .
AND - Although I DON"T NEED any more, since I have enough 100mg NIC to last approximately 15-20 years (Don't know if I'll live that LONG - Hey I'm An OLD MAN . . .
), maybe 1 or 2 more Liters of NIC - when and if they hopefully go on sale ( I Know - I Know - Wishful thinking . . . 
), to be on the safe side . . . Just Sayin' . . .

I knew it! Common sense told me a long time ago masks were imperative. Makes me distrust the CDC and government. You can’t say common folk shouldn’t wear them cause they don’t work but yet in the same breath say the medical staff needs them because they work. 
The lack of a clear direction on this and basically giving us bad advice from the beginning has frustrated me to no end.

I totally agree and work as a nurse. I work LTC and it's ridiculous. They are telling staff to reuse the same isolation gown and mask for a high risk patient. They have a highly contagious disease. I'm immune compromised and offered zero protection.I knew it! Common sense told me a long time ago masks were imperative. Makes me distrust the CDC and government.

I'm calling in tomorrow because I'm still waiting on my medical excuse. My specialist wants me on lock down due to the chemo drugs I'm taking etc. My employer will not pay for my funeral and offers no PPE for me. I suggest anything is better than no protection. I wear a homemade mask to prevent myself from touching my face in public.
P.S. Asia is right!
I also don’t think the 6 feet rule for social distancing is far enough. Sneezes travel a long long way.
Yes, and arosolized secretions from mucous membranes (airborne) can infect.
On a different note: Just ordered two days ago from a vape company and my card was hacked while I was a work. I can't prove a darn thing but the laugh is on them. I had the card locked (off) so they wasted their time. On the other hand my bank took 5 minutes to print out a new card. I just have a few things to do before using it.
Mine got hacked back in 2016 when I was stocking up for the then upcoming vapocalypse. Now I am paranoid to use anything but PayPal online (except for Amazon). Kinda inconvenient since I can't use credit and must have the cash on hand. I have not been able to order any vape gear this past month since I had some really big bills to pay. I'm hoping it's true that the May deadline gets put off until at least September.
