I totally agree (about it tasting awful, not about you being cranky, picky and terrible). I was excited to try ECBlends. Everyone raved about the juice and prices. I ordered like 10 sample bottles and would up tossing or giving away every single one. Even after a ton of steeping, they always tasted perfumey. Yuck.
I do like Mt Baker, though. Their prices and shipping are great, and so far everything I've gotten from them has been at least vapable, and most are pretty good!
It's so funny how tastes vary. I think ECB is quite good and that MVP is pretty terrible. I really wanted to like MVP but it is what it is. (For me)
I have exactly the opposite experience. I have never tasted a "perfumey" taste with ECBlend, but did with MBV. The Dragon's line at ECBlend is fantastic for the price, and their RY4 is great. They have a lot of juices that are just ok, but the sample sizes at $.50 a ml allow you to find the right juices.
I totally agree. They both have excellent customer service. Maybe I just keep choosing stuff that's not their specialty. I will give them an other shot just because I like dealing with MVP
