Can't stop...

[Australe]

I'm new to vaping, but have fallen quickly into the order lots of samples 'trap'. Its so fun picking out all of these different flavors. Our first ordered batch of 10 5ml bottles from ECBlends should be out for delivery today, I already ordered 5 more bottles last night... Hubby is ordering another 10 pack sampler Thursday from The Vapor Room. The reasoning I'm coming up with in my head of why I should keep ordering is the steeping time we'd like to allow the juices to go through. I think for another week or so we are going to stick with lesser quality local bought juices so we can let our samples be all that they can be, and of course then we'll rotate them out.



vape ALL THE JUICES!

My collection is very small compared to some others', 25-30 juices? But I"m starting to feel overwhelmed and that I've gone ridiculously overboard. Like I spent too much money on something trivial. I'm starting to use the Steeping Justification in my own head and hope that I can control myself in the future. Part of it is the AiV portal- OMG it's open, must buy more now!

I've started putting my little bitty samples into little bitty iclear 10s- perfect for carrying and sampling.

I do this same thing in spurts.. in the beginning I did as you are, minus the B&M, as there are none in my area.. order here, order there.. find a few you can't live without and vape those for a while.. then repeat.. over and over again.

can't stop.. won't stop.. doesn't stop. lol

Sample bottles will be the death of Me lol. Well actually the life of me since I'm not smoking anologs anymore. Of the 50+ samples I've ordered since quitting analogs a couple months ago only 6 have I reordered big bottles of. Though I just got some of Bryce's vanilla custard and vanilla pudding. I've got say that both of these hit a home run http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=11458478. Also have a bunch of killer juice steeping and I really like the chocolate tobacco and the shamrock shake http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=11880355 . So maybe I'm closer to 10 juices that I really really like and would reorder. But I know I'll keep ordering more samples and trying them.

At least you are likely to find a few you like!

Eventually vaping becomes a hobby for a lot of folks. Especially when you get to the point of not minding a 4-6 week wait ordering from FasTech. A lot of stuff is 25% of what you pay for the same thing here in the states. Free shipping also. An occasional vaper probably won't order the bast juices from Goodejuice, Heather's Heavenly, Ahlusion, Want2Vape or Mountain Oak. Once you taste those juices, especially the Naturally Extracted Tobacco flavors or NET for short, you'll never go back.

Then you find out about dripping atomizers and building coils. Superb flavor and fun to work with.

And lastly comes do it yourself juices or DIY for short.

Then you realize that quitting the cigs was fun and now your hooked on the fun part instead of the death by lung cancer part.

so many vendors, so many flavors, so much fun!

This has already become a hobby for myself and my husband without a doubt. I already have full intentions of rebuilding my own coils for my mini pro tank 2 that will be here tomorrow. And I know that I'm technical enough that I'll be able to do it safely. Already put together a short list of stuff I want to buy some fasttech, as far as a replacement tank for my MPT 3 for when (planning ahead) it ends up breaking accidentally... Already hunting around for my second PV so I have a backup and a smaller one than what I have coming.

Its funny because I was just thinking last night that some of these real high end juices out there I almost want to stay away from for right now BECAUSE of the fact that then I'll want them all the time. Just trying to stick with ECBlends which seems to be widely recommended and a great price range.

Oh boy, when I started vaping, I think I had (at one time) about 100 bottles of e-liquid because of sampler packs and buying from cheaper places (like Mt Baker). Now that I've figured out that it wasn't just PG that caused my weird reactions to some e-liquids, I'm falling back into that same trap, because I can finally try all these new (to me) vendors that I've heard so much about. Right now, I have at least 65 bottles, many more if I include tiny samples from my AiV orders.

If this wasn't also a hobby for me before, when I started dripping last spring or summer, it definitely crossed that line.

I keep wasting money on juices that I thought I like :/ I recently ordered from nicoticket, I don't like h1n1 and cream brûlée at all... And I got 30 ml thinking I might like them. I should of ordered from seduce juice....

I've made that mistake a lot, ordering larger sizes because i was so sure i'd love something, then not liking it. it generally turns out that the most hyped flavors aren't as great to me and my most loved flavors are ones i don't hear much about...

 

[Spazmelda]

I must be really picky about my liquids. When I was ordering samples, I'd usually only like about 1 out of 10. Even Boba's Bounty, I don't care for. Everyone raves about it, and I just don't like it.

Now that we have 4-5 B&M stores within 30 miles of my house (a couple of them being really awesome stores) I don't often order samples anymore. One of the stores here carries some of the high end liquids (Jameson's, Standard, Five Pawns, Space Jam). Of those, I really dislike all of the Five Pawns (which was a relief to me, because they are so expensive). The Standard Vape is okay, but I don't like it enough to buy it. Jameson's and Space Jam, I like a few of the flavors enough to buy. Then, of course, there are some more reasonably priced liquids I like as well. I just love being able to sample the liquids before I buy them.

Since I DIY most of my juice, I feel okay splurging on the more expensive flavors occasionally.

I'm pretty certain that we'll find something to order larger bottles of out of these samples that we have coming. This irish cream from ECblends is amazing with my morning cup of coffee... I'm feeling the 18mg nic though. Its going to be too high for me. ECBlends gave us a freebie of chocolate malt with 0 nic, I think I'm going to cut my irish cream thats left in my tank with some chocolate malt and see if I can bring that nic level down... I went through half a tank yesterday evening on my MPT2 of that irish cream. I adore my new vaporizer.

Working on something in my head to crochet a case for safer transportation, I'll be certain once it gets finished to post. I want it to be able to have my PV or two, a bottle of juice and charger

CRAZY dreams the last two nights... really crazy vivid dreams

And my chargers should be out for delivery today

VAPE ALL THE JUICES!

I love sample packs. I find the ones I like and work with those, the ones I dont like I try to blend with others or I give them to friends to try. The ones I like I order again...the ones I really like I am getting the concentrates and doing myself...

this has become so much fun.

I know... It's crazy. I ordered betleguese just to try it to see if I like those fruity flavor again? I ordered 4 bottles, I can't believe the one I think I won't like it that much is the one I like it the most.
I don't know what to do with the rest of the 3.

Just because a juice is expensive doesn't mean it's good. If you want a great tobacco flavor you really should try NET's. Ahlusions' Vurley is a superb mix of Vanilla and Burley tobacco's. Goodejuice has a NET called Patriot which is excellent as is their Vita Bella. Heather's Heavenly has some good juices like Legend and Huntsman. W2V or Wanttovape makes some very strong NET's Paris, London or The Blonde come to mind. Mountain Oak and QnJ or Quicknic again, great juices. If you haven't tried a NET do yourself a favor and try one. Yuo'll be amazed at the difference in flavor compared to synthetic made juices. You can even mix your own with extracts from NETcom or Myownjuice.

EC blends Dragon line of juices are pretty good for synthetics but consistency varies in my experience with them.

What's a net? What makes ECblends synthetics beyond the PG? I'm honestly curious... its amazing how much there is to learn about vaping.

I wonder if its mental

I mean when I do that I usually don't like it but when I get the small its usually not enough

maybe I just mentally sabotage myself when I get the large right off the bat

I can think of only 1 juice I liked getting the large bottle
Also I've had a juice I loved got the 60 ml all good next 60 ml was great for the first 4-5 mls and then I just did not want it anymore
It taste the same just had no interest at all, Don't know why
