So, I got myself a tasty vapor's cherry cola e-juice at 12mg last week and when it arrived, the expiry date on the label says June 2014 (it's Jan 2015 now), I debated a bit on whether I should call them up and ask for a refund but I figured since it only costs 10 bucks, it really isn't worth the hassle. Now the big question is, if it's still safe to use the e-juice? It smells fresh and sweet, and is in the colour of our everyday ordinary coke.
EXPIRED e-juice

I think it can last more than a year! I have heard of people keeping it longer. It is only 6mths old if the labeling is correct some people steep their juices that long lol.
it should be safe i see no reason why it wouldn't but, then again i have never seen an expiration date on an e liquid if it is safe that's going to be a really good flavor
Was that the expire date, or the date it was mixed?? If they're shipping expired ejuice, that likely means that it's over 2 yrs old and at least over a year old. I would definitely contact them and let them know. If the viscosity, color, smell etc is still good, it's probably ok, but I would still let them know. They shouldn't be sending out expired e juice. Most of the ones I've seen that have an expiration date, it's 2 yrs after the date it was made. Some are a year after.
Hi, vaape. When I first started vaping a buddy gave me a box of juice a friend of his had given him when he closed his vape shop.
Some of the juice, dekang and other chinese juices weren't very good. But in the bunch were some bottles from MFS from when they first started dealing.
It was well over 4 years old but still good. It depends on where the juice was stashed, how much heat it was exposed to, ETC.
Surprisingly some of the Chinese juice, the menthol, not that I like menthol,was still good also.
It used to be that they didn't put expiration dates on cans and other food stuff.
We tend to buy our canned goods in quantity in case of hurricanes and other acts of nature and mankind, so sometimes we end up eating items 6 months to a year past the expiration date.
Six month old juice, I wouldn't worry about. Sometimes I let juice steep that long.
The worse that could happen is that some of the nicotine has evaporated. If you can taste cherry, and you should be able to, you're good to go.

Really. But I won't comment on all the wonderful vendor's integrity. Surely somebody forgot to cycle the racks.
I'd call 'em up and ask for a refund or exchange. But on the other hand, if it looks good and smells good,
I'd put it in my tank and vape away.

Nicotine will slowly degrade depending on how it's stored, losing potency and changing color -- and flavorings can definitely expire -- but they'll mostly turn weird colors and lose potency and other things, depending on whether they are oil based and stuff. It's probably a slightly lower nic than you'd ordered, but if it has an aroma/taste you're happy with and isn't discolored and you'll vape it up soon you should be fine.
I'd definitely follow Debadoo's advice on contacting/sending a pic and seeing what they say.

Easy to see why ecf is such a wonderful place to be. . .
I'd contact them. Chances are they'll get you to return it and replace it. If they won't, the only way to tell for sure is to fire it up and see what happens.
I doubt if they'd even have him return it. Most folks will just say toss it, and they'll replace it when it comes to juice.
