E-Juice? Local or Online?

[jestermh]

I buy locally alot because I actually have a pretty good retailer that also sells a huge amount online also. Vapor shark. That being said when I want to try something out of the ordinary I'll order online. Their is one from the uk I really want to try. But gotta wait on that kind of expensive shipping on that.

Online: 30ml $7.50
Store: 30ml $15.00

i pay for more juice for less price on the internet lol, only time i buy at the store is when im desperate and dont wanna wait


MT bakervapor is prolly the best place to go for the price

I buy from a local store, who gets their supply form online vendors, take from this what you will.

I will buy local every now and then to support local small business, but in general I like a much wider variety than what my local B&M carries. Plus even their cheapest bottle is marked up by 50%- and thats not bad compared to a lot of B&M's.

Same here. They carry juices from vendors that I use to order from online. I now order exclusively online from Heathers. Best prices and flavor for me.

Online (HHV) I just have a hard time shelling out 32$ for 30ml at the B&M

Most of my local B&M's sell the same old cheap and nasty juice 3x 10ml bottles for £10 (not sure of the conversion to dollars). There are a couple locally that sell quality juice for £5.00 - £7.00 (for 10ml) which I will buy occasionally.

Having said that, 95% of my juice buying is on-line now. I'd much rather pay that little bit more and get a quality juice than vape something that tastes like armpit I'll even order from the US/EU and get excellent quality juice, rather than vape sub-standard stuff. Add to that my DIY recipes and I'm happy with my vaping right now.

I only buy online from a vendor I trust and know well. Even though the vendor is on the other side of the country. There's always free shipping and I can customize my flavor, nicotine level, etc. The shops close to me in the Suburbs of Chicago really are bad and don't have any knowledge on vaping.

Anybody recommend any "ice" juices online? I love any flavor that is slightly fruity, but very "chilled".

Blue Ice from Indigo Vapors is pretty good.

I have yet to buy on-line. I see the ones recommended more often than others are usually the $4.99 price range juices. Some send samples - some don't. Several even had "sales" at $1.99 and disaster struck. Scared me away - I'm too new to even know WHAT I like much less jump in and order on-line. My local shop does not carry and of the "favored shops" juices; they make their own. More expensive? Yes. More expensive than cigarettes? No. Will I eventually try on-line? Probably so - it seems most people do and then I'll just order maybe three to see if they are even close to my local guys. It's sort of like name brand milk and store brand milk to me; there just might be enough of a difference I am willing to pay for the name brand (local) stuff.

I do know I will never buy any juice from anyone when I see people raving"YOU WILL LOVE IT - IT IS THE BEST EVER!". Oh no! Reading those is usually followed by hurt feelings and discussions that turn really sour when opinions differ so drastically there are hurt feelings.

For now I'll stay local and either like it or move on to another; too early in this game to be following recommendations based on PRICE and VOLUME for the DOLLAR PAID. I do believe I'll do fine avoiding the $25.00 for a 10ml or 15ml a bottle boys too. They would have to have a really special and well kept secret to warrant paying that much for "flavoring".

I buy both. You'll get better pricing online, but it's convenient to buy locally. Also, you discover more with your local B&M since you can ask questions. The whole sampling thing however is terrible (unless they let you drip) because their sample cartomizers are a horrible way to sample much of anything from them.

Good online vendors are Good Life, Zen Mind, Halo, and Alice In Vapeland, however I wouldn't have discovered Grimm Industries nor Cuttwood had it not been for visiting local B&M shops.

I do both since I'm buying for me & the Mrs

I have 2 B&M near me that I use....One is a vape lounge (Fluid Vaper) with a big online business that sells it's juice & products at the same web price to walk-ins. I love the atmosphere and it's always packed with vapers of different degrees (from people buying their first kit to Modders/sub-ohmers) sharing their success stories with each other.

The other is a head shop that carries a menthol the Mrs likes and a few online brand liquids (Pink Spot, Mister E,etc) which I just run & grab what I need and leave. My wife has found a few flavors she likes and we will order bigger bottles directly from them.

Online I order from Nicoticket (note to self: have to re-up soon) for my all day vape of Custards Last Stand. I can't recommend any higher than Kent for quality and customer service.

I created a list of juice vendor's site's on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/lists/10203277951060230

I have several local shops to go to (Lucky Me!!). I haven't bought anything online yet. Haven't found the need to. One of them will always have what I am looking for or can get it pretty readily. It is great that the vaping community has become so popular and there are shops popping up everywhere. I like to use the internet for shopping and knowledge. This way I already know what I am looking for before I even get into my truck to go to the B&M.

I like to buy things local to support the local vaping scene. That being said the local b&m I have around has ok juice, I tried some Good Life Vapor juice's and that was it. Never again will I pay $13usd for a 18ml bottle that is only ok. I ordered a $20 sample pack of 4 flavors(4 10ml bottles) and all of them are so much better than my local shop's. I already ordered 6 more bottles and cant wait to try mt baker and the vapor chef. I don't mind paying the price for quality, but why pay the price for ok when you can have quality at the same cost? Even my own local B&M suggested The vapor Chef to me and they make and only sell there own flavors there. Haven't tried them yet but after looking them up it seems they have some very good juice.

So for the most part I only shop online so I can get the great juice. I so wish I had a great local shop.

I shop and buy both locally and on-line. The only local I've been to, Vapor Leaf, has good prices ( $ 3.95 for 10ml and $12 for 30ml in 24mg, 18mg, 12mg, 6mg and zero) for both gear, juice and has friendly service. They make their own juices and the flavors are darned good. Their hours are somewhat limited, but have recently expanded them. That being said, I have also bought from 2 on-line vendors, Mr. Vape and Free State Vapor and have been pleased with both. Not every juice is my cup of tea, but I love experimenting.

I want to support the local economy, but like having multiple sources for juice flavors I really enjoy.

Keep the vape and namaste.

Awesome, I'll give that one a try!
