Cost effective to buy e-liquid from China?

Came across this place via another thread

Electronic Cigarette Portal Liquid flavour

Just wondering if it was feasible to make a bulk purchase of e-liquid (P&P, etc)

Is it just for trade, good quality, etc.?

I know juice has a shelf life of c.12 months...

Anyone have any experience???

Yes. It has had good reports so far. They say 2 years (probably based on shelf life of propylene glycol.) You need to get 2 x 1.2L minimum order, and shipping will form 1/3 of the cost. Depending on where you live, you may need to pay duty and/or be hassled by customs.

You will end up paying at least USD 250, for the minimum order of 2.4 litres.

It seems to be the same stuff you buy from a lot of sellers. (Reportedly the manufacturer makes about 90% of the e-juice from China.)

I personally haven't ordered any.

Bertrand - thanks for the info. Certainly is food for thought.

will have to work out the economics of it all and factor in the risk:reward ratio.

Hint: it's cheaper unless you don't get through 80-90% of it before it expires.

Just noticed there are (possibly) more discreet (and practical) bottles that can be purchased too.

10 ml - 50 ml bottles (packs of 10). Can't see a minimum order requirement either.

Result in (overall) less value to be had, however.

Believe me, they'll have a minimum ordering quantity on those. Just refill your old bottles if you go ahead with this.
