I have been vaping for close to 5 years and using boba's close to 4 years.

Boba's has been my all day every day vape, I'm close to running out and need some suggestions on what to try. It has been many years the last time I tried anything new, I'm lost and out dated on the juice game.

Over the years I have tried so many (maybe 400) different juices and never found anything that did it. Not sure if I should try some kind of nets or ??? I'm probably also using old/ out dated equipment, but it works so, that's what I am still rocking. Any help or suggestions would be great, I need a starting point.

Thanks in advance

A few years ago there was another instance of Bobas being unavailable. There were a lot of suggestions at the time in that post. Maybe you can find it in the alien visions forum area.....I think from 2012 or 2013?

If you are interested in DIY there has also been topics on making some similar ejuices.

Personally, looking for the "exact" same thing often doesn't yield a good result, comparatively.

You might like some other "tobacco dessert type" (which is what Bobas is to me, since it's not *really* a tobacco tasting product) so products like The Plume Room's Candied Cavendish or Burley and Candy House. ???

NOT the same but nitelite vapor's Bounty Hunter is very good
http://www.pvliquids.com/

also Copper Creeks House Blend.

I remember those, along with smacuser's idea of El Kamino, as being suggestions in the past.
Others were
Seduce Juice- Jango
Sandsmods- Grumpy's Hooch
Grizzly Vapes- Nannerbear (more like gorilla juice)
Grizzly Vapes- Kokobear
:)

Personally, I liked Bounty Hunter and the Plume Room ones. :)

Good luck!

I always enjoy Boba's since the first few months I started vaping; can't wait for it to get fixed.

I just made another order of El Kamino, it hits a lot of the same notes.

Who sells the el kamino? I will have to give it a try thanks.

I remember the last boba's outage. I was some how able to vape boba's the whole time.

I'm not really looking for another boba's, I just need something I can vape. Hoping that if a person likes boba's and has a suggestion as a starting point.

I had a 30ml bottle of cc house blend and NLV bounty I just finished up a few days ago, funny how similar taste work. For me bounty hunter is just ok and after a few days I have a hard time vaping it. I really like house blend, my problem is it kills my carto's. I can only get a carto to last a day before it's no good. Never had a desert I liked but always willing to try.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I will have to check them out. I have never tried any NET juice, but don't know anything about them?

    That would be Good Life Vapor.

    I also bought bottles of Newminster and English Bull Dog. You might try a sample pack here. Sample Packs - Good Life Vapor.

    THANKYOU20 might still be good for 20% off.

    @Racehorse - A reviewer on the Good Life site compared El Kamino to Jango

    Boba's and Gorillas juice are my two absolute favorite juices hands down! I just ran out of Boba's two days ago :ohmy: I have a little Gorillas juice left, I'm trying to hang on to that as long as I can. Believe me I understand what you mean. I've been vapeing them for about three years now.
    A friend of mine, knowing what was going on, gifted me a bottle of "The Virus" by Nicoticket. I have to admit, the first 15 minutes or so I hated it! Then it really started to grow on me! So much so I ordered 4 more bottles. Matter of fact, I'm vapeing it right now. I can't say it's a thing like Boba's, but it is an excellent tobacco. For whatever that is worth from one Boba's junkie to another. It's really getting me through this Boba's drought :(

    My experience, exactly. Matches yours to a T.

    Maybe try the NETs.

    that was me in 2012-2013. Then one day, I just started disliking it. Dunno why. Now, even just the SMELL of those bother me. LOL I guess maybe there is such a thing as too much of a good thing. I once got sick-drunk in college on scotch, now I can't even stand near anyone drinking it lest I catch a whiff.

    I should have told you to grab some Deadly Sin. Did the coupon code still work?

    I did order some deadly sin. Thanks. The coupon code is expired.

    Running out of boba's is a bad day. I got a small bottle of the virus, Hopefully it's good, many seen to like it.

    The cure for the virus by NT is like boba's a lot to me.

    I was unsure about this flavor, I will have to grab a bottle if I put in another order.

    FYI, The Virus is one of the Flavors of the Week at Nicoticket and is currently 40% off with code "SaveMe40".
    Their coffee vape, Wakonda, is also on sale, same code.
    Nicoticket | eJuice Eliquid Wholesale | Made in the USA

    I had no idea it was the flavor of the week or it was on sale. When I checked out they had a bogo offer, so I saved 50% it worked out good.

    My experience, exactly. Matches yours to a T.

    Maybe try the NETs.


    If none of the stuff I just ordered works out, Then NETs is next on the list.

    This has been the only juice I can vape everyday, all day. For me boba's just does it. I would like to find a few other juices that I like and can vape on a regular basis. It would be nice to have a back up for when ave messes up again or just to take a break from boba's every so often and switch it up.

    After reading this thread I'm thinking when my friend bought me Virus, maybe what she was thinking of was The Cure? Neither one of us were very familiar with Nicoticket at the time. But she heard that they had a flavor like Boba's. I think she got her flavors confused? I should have tried cure. I ordered 4 more bottles of Virus at the time. It's good though! But now I gotta try The Cure.

    I don't find that The Cure tastes anything like Boba's.

    Agreed. It's to chocolatey to me where Boba's is more raisney and Graham Crackery. Neither does The Virus. ElKamino from GLV is close enough I think to get someone by until it comes back in stock.

    Please keep us posted after you've tried everything, and then again after you've let them steep.

    I believe there are a few other forum members who will read this in the future and will want to know what you think.

    I, myself, included.
