Not totally sure that will happen, Apostle. It's not just the price of the juice, its the overheads that go with it. Also, what's the point in having a business if it doesn't make money?

In all honesty, I have no problems with most suppliers prices (though that $6 paypal fee at Janty bothers me enough that I won't buy liquid from them unless I'm getting an e-cig at the same time). In fact, I'm pretty happy with puresmoker right now for saying he will start testing his liquids, and will continue to buy from him even if the price goes up as a result.
I want to get some no flavor liquid to experiment with making some flavors that aren't available commercially so far. I have no doubt that I will keep buying from the suppliers though.

I'm sure quite a few suppliers purchase their juice from wholesalers like Central Trade and i don't care what you say but a 200% mark up on anything must be some big overheads 
Don't get me wrong , I'll still order from my local supplier but i do resent the fact i can get the same for a 1/5th of the price by going bulk. Plus my local supplier is just that 'local'. It's just easier sometimes.

Think of it sort of like Rent-A-Center....lol
For the poor schmuck who can't afford a $300 TV, he'll end up paying $1000 for it over time....but at least he can have the TV.

What I hadn't really thought about was.....I used the 50ml bottles at $30 each to compare....and that's one of the better prices around. What about the ones who sell it $1 per ml...as in $10 for 10 ml or $30 for 30 ml?
I paid $70 for 500ml. What's the markup on that?
Lu
If you wait til I open the menthol, I would be willing to send a small vial of each to you. I believe the vials are 1 dram = around 3.5ml...just to try. If the shipping is low, I'll just send them on....if not, you can pay the shipping
Lu
That would be great - thanks! I'll send you a PM
Sorry Lu to be hijacking your post but if anyone wants to do the east coast bulk order please post here

Thanks,
Rceived sample bottles from Freddo (Thx, fast delivery and perfect packaging) .
Currently testing Ry4, and its really a great liquid! It does test a little bit caramel, but not too sweet, I think its the kind of liquid you can smoke for a long time and all day long !
Still have Coffee, Camel and Mboro to test, i'll let you know !
Cheers

Wow, very generous of you, and much appreciated. I have never tried the RY4, but use Riskee/Flu-cured 75% of the time. Menthol 24%. The other 1% are flavors which Im not too fond of. Green Apple was decent. Vanilla was nasty. Others I don't remember, so not very good. haha. I find the Riskee has a caramel-pretzel kind of taste. More caramel on the taste, more pretzel on the smell. I prefer the minty "menthol" liquids. I'll PM you man...

Freddo has just sent me a half litre (0.56kg) of eliquid from Central Trade and the factory seal on the cap has been broken. It's been resealed by someone but I'm not sure why it would have been opened after leaving the manufacturer.
Has anyone else had bottles with broken seals from Central Trade?

Hey Kate, maybe customs did pick one bottle to check...and it just happened to be yours? Are you sure it was opened after it was glued?
Lu
Lu
kate by factory seal..do you mean globs of glue? mine were not broken. could they have chipped off in transit?
It's a white tamper proof cap that breaks a seal with a ring when twisted and opened. That has been resealed with glue. There's no evidence of customs resealing it, I thought they'd have to use something that shows it was them. Freddo says he didn't open the bottle so somewhere between manufacturer and me via Central Trade, customs and Freddo someone has broken the tamper proof seal.
I'll post a picture of what I mean in a minute.
The thing is, I don't know who opened it, why, or what they've done to it. I really don't want to vape this stuff now.

YAY! So happy for you. What a nightmare that would have been trying to explain that with China 8-o Good!
