That is just evil. And genius. Which makes you, by association, an evil genius.
Paladinx, I've seen where e-liquid has a shelf-life of two years. Even with the bottle open, as long as you keep it in a relatively cool place and away from light when not in use, you should be fine. (And the light thing is more of a precaution than anything, light is known to accelerate bad things happening to a lot of substances.)
Ivisi
Light is supposed to accelerate nicotine breakdown. Not sure how much though.
Another issue:
Expiry date is important information. It should be imprinted to all bottles of juice, not only to keep people from using rotten juice (lol) but to comply with regulations common to many many countries.
For example: I ordered some Johnson's Creek smoke juice. It arrived in Brazil and was retained by Brazilian health department. I thought it was something about it having nicotine on its composition, whatsoever. However I sent an e-mail to ANVISA (Brazilian Health and Sanitation Agency) inquiring about my juice and their reply was that it was retained because it had no expiry date on the bottle. I would have simply thrown 47 bucks (juice + shipping) on trash, hadn't JC promptly refunded my purchase without any further questions. In this case, thumbs up for Johnson's Creek.
Can anyone post some juice manufacturers which imprint expiry dates on their bottles, so I can try to import some juice again? JC unfortunately won't do.

I Know JC told me once you crack it open to finish it in 30 days. Thats probably right with air getting in it and the movement it will probably break down and get weak.
Unopened Other Companies have stated 2 years when stored at around 50'F in dark or non-lighted location.
~Keep Vapin~!
I assume that just from a flavor loss perspective? If oyu keep the lid tight and store in cool dry area it won't go "bad", correct?
How much did you get? a gallon? For me, a 30ml-bottle lasts me a month so the expiration is not such a big deal.
If you need help using up your gallon of juice, I'm sure there are plenty of people here who are willing to help you out! LOL!
Eastmall.net puts the expiration date on all bottles. Also the production date. They're in the 'Suppliers' forum on the front page.
Hopes this helps.
(Sorry you had your juice sent back!)
it wasn't sent back. it was destroyed by the health department.
but thanks for the tip. next month I'll order some from eastmall. I've read some good reviews there on their juice. For now I'll keep using my dealextreme e-cigar.
