ecopure liquid bulk

[Angela]

Is it possible to do a transfer to CentralTrade via uk pc banking? I'm thinking the answer's no given the charge is in US$.

With certain business accounts, it is possible, but with general personal online banking, I've not yet found one that can handle an international money transfer of this kind.

Anyone know what the bank charge is for doing such a transfer?

Depends on your bank and your account type, and I don't have any experience of international transfers, but I do know that for standard UK CHAPs payments, most banks charge between £20 and £30 per transfer and I suspect that the charge would be similar.

If it's done through Western Union can it be done online?

Yes!

Hope this helps a little.

Thanks Angela.

Anybody care to give a brief review of the ecopure juice they've tried so far before I go ordering supplies that will last a year. I've tried menthol (which I didn't find very mentholy) and rich tobacco which had a candy floss type taste. I actually like both of them despite the mild throat hit although I find them both a bit inconsistent (sometimes the flavour's great, other times ok, occassionaly it's like smoking lukewarm washing up liquid). Can anyone say how those flavours compare to the tobacco and fresh flavours?

The flavours have been 'tweaked' and are now very good (mmmm sneak preview!). The regular is very near to the prefilled cart flavour but with a bite like a werewolf! Rich also has a good hit now. Haven't tried menthol, mild or fresh yet.

Hey there Nick .....that's great, it didn't really take all that long...you have given me the confidence to buy some that way. I will just wait to see if you are happy that the quality is o/k as well.

Yeah - considering there was a 3-day public holiday in the midst of the process, it wasn't too bad at all - 7 days from them picking up the WU payment to me receiving the shipment.

Flavourwise the Fresh doesn't taste of anything much at all, so ideal for mixing - it's quite thick, and produces plenty of vapour.
The menthol is quite light - a lot less unpleasant than menthol cigarettes (I've never been a fan.)
The regular has a bit of flavour to it, but I'm not quite sure what it is - sort of a light caramel maybe? Not much like any tobacco flavour I've tried before, but that may be because of the extra glycerine sweetness. Nice though, with some throat hit - if you don't want to experiment with flavours, this would be a better choice than the Fresh.

 

[Adik Ted]

Letzin & Nick, thanks for the reviews. With regard to throat hit were you both talking 24 mg?

 

[Nick O'Teen]

Letzin & Nick, thanks for the reviews. With regard to throat hit were you both talking 24 mg?

Yes. Though actually my Regular is labelled "V-HIGH 25mg", so I guess they've tweaked the strength a little. The litre of Fresh is just labelled "V-HIGH", and the instructions declare "Contains <2.6% v/v Nicotine", so this may be 25mg too (2.5%).
From a UK Trading Standards POV, it is probably more acceptable to guarantee a maximum strength than a minimum one (since nicotine is a poison,) so I guess that explains the labelling.

Hello,

I'll just cut and paste the relevant part of the mail from Intellicig.

============
.... your order has been shipped via DPD courier and should be with you tomorrow - signature required. I have added a couple of sample bottles for you to try along with a few 2ml syringes that have plastic 'needles' and are perfect for refilling carts. The pricing might seem odd to some (on the forum) but it is a part of our long term business strategy and not because we have to pay anyone any commission. We make it, we sell it and we are beholding to no-one. This industry is a whole new concept and we are truly pioneers that will pave the way or others to follow. Enjoy your ECOpure and if you ever want to call by just let me know.
============

Think I should point out that I didn't really mean it when I said I'd kick the door down

Also this means from ordering to arrival is 1 day.

It's always possible to transfer $ funds from your bank, but whether it can be done online depends on your acount I guess. It will also work out £25-30 in fees, so unless it's a large order, Western Union is cheaper - and quicker: a bank transfer can take up to 5 working days (so that's a week in practice,) whereas the money's available for collection in minutes via WU.

Yes, the WU money order can be conveniently arranged online through WesternUnion.com, though you'll have to phone an 0800 number to confirm it once you've paid online if you're not a regular WU customer - that's part of their anti-fraud policy.

So I have placed, paid for and had my order forwarded to intellicig in the UK. Here is the current status after emailing John.

Hi Noah, the new batch is now in full flow and has been tested and approved, it's very nice!​

Chris, our Managing Director, is finalising details for the transportation of liquid in this quantity in order that we do not encounter any problems.​

Given the fact that pure nicotine can be exported into the US it should not take too long to get the correct procedure in place.​

I'll keep you updated and as soon as I have the details it will ship immediately.​

So for other yankees out there hopefully we will be enjoying Bulk ECOpure soon. To all you on the other side of the pond I am jealous and picture you all soaked in liters of cheap and delicious ECOpure.

Cheers, SH

not sure if you put this up but how much was the shipping to the us/how much did you buy and what was the total if you don't mind me asking! thank you!!

$350 (give or take a couple bucks) for the liquid, the western union fee and the shipping. I don't know what type of shipping,I requested fed-ex but since coming from UK probably Royal mail (which is fine). That was for 2L of ecopure. We will see, if it comes through that is a huge savings! I think the bulk price right from intellicig was like $900.

I just hope they get the shipping issue to the states figured out soon.

I don't know if you can answer this Letzin but if you can't maybe intellicig will. If I was to order from CentralTrade tomorrow would I be getting the tweaked flavour(s) or the older untweaked stock?

I didn't think for a second intellicig didn't make it or were answerable to anyone . Commission was the wrong word to use, I should have said Central Trade's mark up. My point was that what intellicig were charging 'trade ptrice' for 500 ml was almost as much as what CentralTrade were selling 1000 ml for retail PLUS the not insignificant western union fee. It seems crazy that we're faced with the choice of having to pay a western union fee and a mark up to a Chinese firm in order for the Chinese firm to contact Intellicig to get them to post the juice out to us or contacting intellicig direct and paying double the price.

I can't say 100% but I am under the impression that everything on sale now is the latest formula. Drop John or David an email and they will confirm.

PS As an aside, any chance of of an introduction thread on the UK forum?
