    Do any of the far cheaper brands than CN sell through dealers? Any company that does has to be careful about undercutting the dealers with any direct sales. I think part of their price is justifying having no size less than 30 mL, $14 may be cheap per milliter but not cheap per flavor try. I still have some Tripoli from over a year ago which I may have to throw away. One of those flavors that was "standout" in the vape shop but too strong and strange to want often. Soller's Pointe is delicious though.

    As to thickness, maybe it's everyone else that's too thick maybe from strong sticky flavors, CN is closer to my DIY stuff I think (although I rarely make high VG).

    I am actually trying Sollers Pointe right and I am not a fan of the banana. I had never tried a banana vape before and it sounded good but... just not feeling it. Going to keep it in my tank for a bit though and see how I feel after a while of it. Now I'm a little nervous because a few of the flavors I ordered from Mech Sauce have banana :(

    LOVE AND WILL RE-ORDER:
    Commodore Pearry, Tripoli, Siren's Song, Treasure Island V2

    LIKE OKAY AND WILL VAPE:
    Sollers Pointe, Charlie's Custard, Neptune's Nectar

    DISGUSTING AND UNVAPEABLE:
    Stroopwafel, Blue Bay (smells awful, will not try after how awful Stroopwafel was), Poseidon's Punch (smells awful, will not try after how awful Stroopwafel was)

    So, I take it you did not like Stroopwafel? LOL! :lol::lol::lol:
    That one does get better - open it and exchange the air, then give it a good shake each day. Try it again in a few weeks - ya never know!

    Hated stroopwafel, way too strong. I immediately poured it out and put Tripoli and now I keep tasting a milder stroopwafel, don't know if it's hanging around my coils or if Tripoli tastes similar and I just didn't notice. That being said, I just noticed that my stroopwafel was made in January, and most of the others were more like september-october. Yeah I think I will do what you said. Still hesitant to try Poseidons Punch and Blue Bay, but I just checked and Blue Bay was made in January, too, and Poseidon's Punch was Dec 25. Going to try that method with all of the gross ones.

    LOL I am still tasting the stroopwafel! I don't know if maybe Tripoli has some similar flavors as stroopwafel and I just didn't notice before, or if somehow some stroopwafel is lingering in my coil. Oh boy. It's actually not bad in small amounts, luckily, however I can't taste the Tripoli very well now! LOL.

    I finally tried their custard this week after hearing about it for so long. It really is nice for the price. It's not anything 'special' but after trying a dozen or so custards, they all seem to be really similar to me. Might even be the best just-custard I've tried.

    For the price, I think it's worth a shot for sure.
