E-Liquid Samples - Cheap 1mL samples of boutique e-juice

[linkywins]

Hello all.

I noticed tons of "Any one ever try?..." or "What do you recommend from...?" posts. Well my fellow vapers I may a solution for you!.

A few months ago I came across a site called E-Liquid Samples - Cheap 1mL samples of boutique e-juice - Before I got around to ordering from them they decided to have an issue with their sample bottle supplier. they put up a "we will be back soon" sign and I kinda forgot about them

Well. They are now back and have started shipping in these spiffy little glass vials.

If you are trying to figure out what your next favorite just might be i'd strongly recommend giving them a look. I just received my first order for 18 different samples. The order was processed the day after I placed it and I had it on my doorstep 4 days from when I placed the order

The samples themselves are extremely well packaged. You get exactly 1ml of juice. just enough to get a feel for what the juice is going to be like. I personally am just filling up the little V2 blank carto's that I stocked up on ages ago when I thought i'd stick with a little cig-a-like (oh how silly of me)

Anyway. If anyone was wondering if these guys are for real. I can say at the very least I got what I paid for... and in my opinion the customer service and the idea of the site itself is brilliant.


ps. I'm in no way affiliated with eliquidsamples. I've been lurking the forums for a short eternity now... i've just come to the conclusion that I'd *really* love to get myself access to the classifieds... (Grants Vanilla Custard, I must have you)

Awesome site! I'll have to check that out once I need to order some new flavors. I hope they get more companies in stock.

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered 13 samples. Ive been looking for a new juice to ad to my rotation and this may help. I think its a great idea. They should start carrying more vendors. It would be fantastic if they had 15-20 quality vendors to choose from. I just ordered 13 different juices for under $20 shipped. Ive never been able to do that before. Ill keep an eye on them.

guess I'll try them..it is a good idea!

Good in principle and understand they need to start small. If the juice is bad, it's only $1.50 +/- out of pocket. That said, over a dollar per ml is an excessive price IMO. I know they need to buy it from the actual retailers, but I'd venture they are buying bulk at wholesale plus and breaking down larger bottles. Maybe it's just me...but the price seems craxy for what you get. Idea and principle I applaud.

Here's hoping they grow, get more suppliers but rethink their pricing.

At 1.39 a ml that's not cheep plus shipping
But I'm a DIY so I may just be to cheep lol
It is a good way to see if you like some thing with out getting a lot of it .

It's not cheap if you are planning on making them your primary source of ejuice. I don't really think that's what they are getting at though. I doubt anyone here is going to order 30 samples instead of just going to the vendors site and buying a bottle. The idea here is that you can learn the "omg that tastes nothing like the description!" lesson without spending 9-12$

I just vaped a dill pickle from Zuse e-juice. It was "interesting" to say the least. I *NEVER* would have ordered a bottle of it but i'm more then willing to give it a $1.50 try lol

I completely agree on the "needs more vendors" front. The price point, i'm fine with

Darn, they only ship to the US...! I loaded up my online cart with a bunch of interesting flavors... what a let-down!

Fire the site owner off an email - I got into a little back and forth with him when I was about to place my first order. He's a pleasure to deal with and was quite responsive. I cant say for sure that he can ship outside the US but I'd be willing to bet that the US option was the "easy/default" one for him to setup with his online store. He may be able to work something out for you

Also. Let's all badger him to bring in your favorite juice vendors. More choices = good for everyone!

Im totally fine with the price. Its much cheaper than having 20 bottles of juice laying around I dont like. Its a fantastic Idea. To expect someone to buy the juice(even in bulk), the 1mil bottles and package it all and send it back out to me for less than a dollar is nuts. Whats he making? 25cents a vial? Its a taste testing service. I also ordered different flavors I never would have before. Aside from a B&M ive never been able to try a flavor with such a small investment. The point about starting small sounds good but I think hes starting a little too small. He needs more vendors to really get people excited and get return customers. I ordered 13 samples the first time but wont be ordering again until he gets new vendors. I ordered enough to know if I like the vendors or not and all the flavors that really interest me.
I would think any vendor who makes good juice would love for this service to carry their juice. Its like the sample booth at the supermarket. Good advertising.

It sounds like a good idea for those looking for a go-to juice. Only problem is sometimes you warm up to a flavor and it takes more than a ml to do it. Some juice that I love now I wasn't over the top in love first time I tried it. At least this will give you an idea of what direction to go (it you like bakery, tobacco, dessert, fruit, etc...) flavors.

Dripping would work with this.

Thanks for the share...I haven't been here in a long while and what brought me back was to view threads about any good menthol juices out others have tried. The vendor whom I have been ordering from for two years up and changed the recipe on me. Now I am stuck with 3 - 30 ml bottles of menthol juice that smells like menthol motor oil with chemical taste. So getting the chance to "sample" without ordering full bottles is perfectly fine with me. The kicker about the switch vendor pulled ... they said it was the same juice that I have been ordering...yeah right...is that why the almost empty bottle I have is clear and the new bottles I ordered are yellow and thick? Man I hate it when someone tries to BS me. They just lost me as a customer on ALL items. Just placed my order for some samples for under $10 bucks, wish me luck on these and if it doesn't work out ... hey, no big loss on my part.

I'm, confused...

where's the boutique juice?

I only see the normal "great for the price" internet juice...

Boutique juice is:

The Standard
Space Jam
Vaping Monkey
Five Pawns
Adam Bomb
Jameson's
Mastermind
Ben Johnson's Awesome Sauce
Etc.

It's a good idea though, if you don't have a brick & mortar nearby to sample liquids at... just wish they had the stuff I actually like to vape.

So I was in contact with who I assume is the site owner (John) and it seems like he has a policy to only carry vendors who agree to work with him. I'll quote his email

Great feedback in the post! I understand that people would like us to have more vendors on board. So would we! We would add 5 more brands tomorrow if we could but believe it or not, it’s like pulling teeth to get vendors to come on board. I’m not sure why some shops are hesitant—maybe they feel they’d lose control over their customers that way. Legally, we COULD simply buy their juice and resell it as samples without their permission, but we won’t do that for a couple of reasons. First, it’s their business and we respect the blood sweat and tears they’ve put into building it—who are we to come in and step on their toes. Secondly, if the reason they don’t want to partner with us is they would rather their customers be forced to buy a full bottle from them and throw it away if they don’t like it rather than try a sample first, then that’s not the kind of business we want to promote. Our hope is that if people start getting used to small samples they will begin contacting vendors and urging them to partner with us—businesses pay much more attention to customers than they do to someone trying to sell a new idea.

Having said all that, we are actively pursuing new vendors and will hopefully be able to add more brands soon.

Brings to light how/why he carries the juices he does. I guess from now on when I place an order at my favorite vendors ill mention him in the comments lol
