One thing that does bother me about vaping, is that there doesn't appear to be any kind of quality control for eLiquids. Anyone can start up their own "company" & start selling this stuff out of their garage. I have nothing against small businesses, or the entrepreneurial spirit, but... y'know.
How do I know that I'm getting 12mgs of nicotine, is there a way to check it? Is there a website out there of people who do check? Any respectable website that does reviews?
Does being a forum supplier mean anything other than paying for advertising? I see a few threads from suppliers who aren't "forum suppliers" should I give more creedance to the forum suppliers?
I like going into my vape store & buying eLiquids in "professional" packaging. Boxes with bar codes, list of ingredients, proper branding & company information. Then I'll look around the net to see if I can get it online cheaper, if I like it.
I placed an order once from one of the companies that gets good reviews here on the forum & was shocked with what I got. Plain bottles, amatuerish labels, no tamper proof caps... no box, they were just bubble wrapped together in a USPS paper envelope. I was actually afraid to use it, but since I bought the stuff as a VG base to mix with the 100% PG stuff I bought at retail outlets, I eventually broke down & used it.
But I'm wondering, do you ever worry about that stuff? I learned a long time ago to stay away from "freeware" & pirated software, because if those guys are smart enough to hack microsoft, who knows what you're agreeing to install on your computer, know what I mean? This is a little more dangerous. They can put anything in their liquid, how would I know?
I'd hate to find out, ten years from now, that there's a class action lawsuit against a popular supplier here because they were introducing staff, or e coli, or rat feces to their product.
