I will buy from where ever I get the best deal and service on the products that I want. My first look is always Canvape and my second stop will soon be jrcustomturnings after these two I look out of the country. For juice I DIY most of my juice and source almost everything in Canada and only go out of country for items I can not get in Canada. For those that believe all nic juice come from china ( "All of RTS Vapes' nicotine liquid originates from flue-cured tobacco grown in North Carolina. For your information, North Carolina produces more flue-cured tobacco than any other state in the United States. With our unemployment rate near 10% in North Carolina we decided to try a United States solution to inconsistent Chinese nicotine liquid. The tobacco leafs are handpicked by North Carolinians. The tobacco leaves are delivered to a North Carolina laboratory for nicotine extraction. We are proud to state all of our tests have shown from 99.22% to 99.93% pure nicotine.")Liquid Nicotine

Interesting considering your other posts...

"My $200 dollar Kit and e juice order was rejected by customs and sent back to Health Cabin in China. No response from HC after a week. did I just loose $200 bucks?? Does this happen often and if so do we get a refund? Im really frustrated right now and would like some answers. Thanks"

Yup that was me. Forgot to also mention that I have been vaping for 1 1/2 years now and got tired of paying paying 3x the price locally for the same juice hence the reason for outsourcing my supplies. That was the first time my order was ever rejected by customs and did not know what was going to happen. Got my money back though thanks to friendly people from ECF. Lesson learned but still wont give in to local prices.
Oh yeah, what was your point by the way??

Sheesh, $80 for Ontario analogs. They cost $32 for 200 stinkies at the reserve near Port Perry. And they come cheaper if you get the ones in a bag.

They're also horrible. I smoked res cigs (from that very reservation, in fact) for a year and a half. Quality control is non-existent, flavour is inconsistent, throat hit is inconsistent, and they're almost always harsh as hell. I'm more than glad I got away from those.

Taken a look at Jugheads? Prices at good as even cheap US vendors. $19 for 50ml is hard to beat.

I wanted to buy a particular Jugheads juice that I recently tried and when I went to check out I noticed that the shipping price cost as much as the bottle of juice. I emailed the vendor to see if they were able to send this single bottle a cheaper way and basically the answer was no. So while Jugheads has fantastic prices on the juice itself, you're SOL if you only want one or two bottles. I was/am sad :(

Edit: This is really off-topic.. sorry.

Discount smokes in a bag? Lol! And people turn up their noses at the thought of Juices being developed in a lab in China.

Many of us have a one on one first name relationship with our suppliers and get seriously bent out of shape when others do their level best to bring those same vendors down. I for one do not support any vendor that is willing to gouge me on price or shipping either in Canada or USA but honestly their are ripoff artists in every country.
Do not lump all sellers in one country together because of a few bad apples. I am tired of the world looking upon us and only seeing the trolls in our midst. Each one of us is responsible for how we choose to spend our cash but to advocate all vape business be conducted outside the country is playing directly into the hands of HC and shows the utmost disrespect for the good and honest vendors that we do have and enjoy.
Anyone else tired of trolls continuing to pop up in the Canadian Forum with a recent join dates but all the worlds knowledge to chastise all of us ignorant norther folk.

I wasn't going to say anything, but I have certainly noticed a bit of a theme going on recently. Jo-dee Part II? Whatever it is, someone's got an unhealthy grudge.

E-cigs aren't the big secret that they once were. Look at the Canadian growth. I'm pretty sure most smokers/ex smokers that discovered e-cigs are like me. Ya just have to show & tell every one. :D:laugh:

Now lets throw in the fear of the new, ignorance & rigidness. Of course there's going to be opposition. Lets face it, mindlessly it's pretty simple to plug another analog between your lips, light & smoke. It's accepted because it's an old familiar habit. Some people just don't like new ideas, it breaks the norm, it threatens what was easy & familiar.

For some it is easier to condemn then change. For some/others criticism is easier then praise.

I think as our vaping lifestyles grows, we are going to see a lot more opposition to it. :confused:

If you take into consideration the inflated shipping cost as well as that wonderful duty if you get nabbed by customs. Even though some of the prices on the items are higher within Canada, you end up spending less on your order anyway.

Inflated shipping cost? I always pay less for shipping from China or the US than shipping domestically with Canada Post.

Can't blame the vendors for our posties though.
