Bottle Sizes for Wow Flavors

[K24A3]

With all these new Wow Flavors coming out, many people are reluctant to buy the large 30ml Bottle just to try out the flavor. I think we all agree that the Wow range needs different sized bottles so juice doesn't go to waste.

I'm guessing the 5ml bottles were discontinued due to the costs involved, so perhaps offering 10ml bottles for sampling the flavors, and 50ml for flavors we have already sampled would be better for both V4L and customers?

What size combination's would you like to see?


(I realize there is an existing thread already but this one is for Wow Flavors only since they cost more, and people/times have changed )

I really liked the 5ml bottles!

 

[GiMante]

I like the 5ml bottles too. Helped me save some money on flavors I didn't like, obviously.
I would be ok with 10ml.

(My vote in the poll was for 5ml and 50ml.)

I don't like prefilled cartos and I will not buy a 30ml bottle without knowing what it tastes like first and after that I would only do so only if I really really love it... I haven't tried any of the wow flavors because of this but, I definitely would if they had 5ml bottles for sure and I would rebuy the ones I think are good but am not in love with if they had 10 or 15ml bottles after that..

Talk about timing, I just posted about this....

Why does it have to be a choice of 5 or 30, 10 or 50?

Why not make it 5, 30, 60, 120?

After reading countless threads and posts it appears most of us want to try a sampler like a 5ml. If we like it, then we have the option of 30, 60, or a 120.

If Wowboy were available in 120 I would purchase it. For others who don't want to spend the money on a 120, then a 60 would be just fine.

A variety of flavors choices would only be complimented by a variety of choices in ml size. I do think 10 or 15 is a waste, but that's just me. I also think that if you spend over $40.00 per order you should get a choice of a sampler 5 ml.

Inventory issues aside, I enjoy the 5ml bottles to try flavors I'm unsure about.

30ml bottles seem to be just about right as far as big bottles go. Anything bigger and I feel like I'm trying to fill a thimble from a gallon jug. I don't see the cost savings being enough to warrant having even bigger bottles of juice available. Also for every extra size of bottle, the inventory needed to be kept at the warehouse goes up exponentially. Too many options per flavor would increase workload, space, and human errors when packaging. Not to mention the more stock would mean less "fresh" juice since less popular sizes would sit on the shelves for longer.

Ditto!

Everytime a new flavor is added or any addition expands inventory exponentially and is a standard part of business. There is no need for additional relationships with vendors for 5 ml or 30 ml containers, they already exist. Adding 60ml or 120ml containers is not an enormous undertaking by any means since there is no additional packaging since everything is contained in bubble wrap.

V4L is a reseller and not a manufacturer of liquid, issues of human error are a given for any reseller that carries more than 1 single item. Providing a wider array of sizes, especially larger sizes increases profit, streamlines inventory, reduces cost, and allows the consumer more choices and time between orders.

Let me count the ways you are wrong! V4L's liquids in premium and Wow are custom made..not merley repacks of stock liquid. They are now starting a new line of American made..again not stock.
As an inventory specialist (past) I can tell you warehouse space is limited..not endless. You cannot stock 10 sizes in over 100 flavors of everything not to mention batts and other sundry goods in that limited space if you don't want your overhead to go into overdrive. Especially since the liquids and batts are time sensitive. Time from ordering and receiving when you have custom made is NOT overnight, bubble wrap or not! Nor is it even quaranteed to get through customs. Ask Steve how much has been lost.

Well, I will chime in here.

I would really just like them to add the 5mil bottles to the wow juice inventory, I really do not care for any other sizes, the 30mil works great for me.

I just want to be able to try all the wow flavors, you know, make 1 order and get them all without breakng the bank. See which ones I like, and buy the 30mil of those.

I know it seems like that is asking a lot, but for V4L its a additional money revenue, given the fact that i will pull the trigger on all the ones i like.

Anyway, just my 2 cents.

Two sizes would work for me!

And you guy's got to remember if it is over 60ml which would last most people 2 months (rough estimate) if not longer, there is an expatriation date. I just know there is one, not sure how long it is tho. So if you get a huge bottle of you ed/ad vape, thinking it will save you money, it might expire. Now just remember that it is 12.50 bucks for a 30ml bottle, now you do a 60ML it is 23 bucks, 90ML would be 35.50...ect...

So would you spend more money for a HUGE bottle when you also have batt's to buy and everything? I like the 30ML just fine, I can carry that, 6 cartos and an extra XL batt on me. A 120ML bottle I can not, I carry 2 30ML bottles with me to refill when I have time, because I am not home at all so no time to fill when I am home.

MK, we are not talking about 10 sizes or 100 flavors are we? If we are going to conflate the subject matter why not say 100 sizes and 10,000 flavors? Inventory Specialist, yes I have one of those although her official title is Inventory Control Manager who supervises both of my warehouses.

If you think I am a forum poser making such claims let's put a $300.00 gift certificate from V4L on the table and I will gladly pm you a link to my company website.

It is my understanding after speaking with several juice suppliers like Don at BWB, as well as Pam at MFS that juice stored properly will last 18-24 months. Just like many of V4L's offering, larger sizes do not need to be available for every flavor, as is the case currently. It will not surprise me that in the coming months 5ml and 60ml will be available in Wow flavors.

You know MK, I am a nice guy and the fact is I am not here at ECF of all places to .... heads with anybody over business models especially somebody who is as helpful to others as you are.

I learned a long time ago never to argue with a forum regular or a lady that carries a black battery with a copper carto. So I guess we can just agree to disagree on this subject and talk about our favorite flavors.

I won't buy from a company unless I can try a 5ml or 10ml size. I am too new to vaping and still trying to find those flavors I like. Once I find something I like then I order the 30ml.

 

[cirxsi]

How about a "build your own sampler pack" option?

I'm with you there. I've tried too many that I didn't like (like the cherry sample I'm vaping now, ptt, ptt.. nasty)

How about a "build your own sampler pack" option?

I've seen several suppliers that have sample offers, but only for preset flavors. Never anything I actually want to try.

Even with flavors I vape daily, I've never ordered more than 30ml at a time. Money is too tight. Sometimes I get tired of a flavor, or I find my taste buds have changed after a few weeks.
I like 5ml, 10-15 ml and 30ml's to choose from.

 

[neonrust]

I voted other because I like the 30ml bottles, but wouldn't mind seeing some teeny 3ml bottles(about the size of a cart-o) for sampling. If the 3ml's were a choice, I would have tried nearly all of the flavors and would probably have more 30ml bottles because of it. More chances to find favorites.....find more favorites, buy more big bottles.

 

[empnero]

I liked the old 5ml bottles, gave me a chance to try something without worrying too much whether or not I would like it, and the price allowed for the same. I would certainly have tried more flavors, and in turn bought more of the ones I liked in greater quantity if the newer juices were available in that size as well.
