On a related note my dad posted an article about "synthetics" in e liquid on my FB wall the other day. I'll let you use your imagination. Don't know if it's true or if the cops are just too stupid to tell the difference, but supposedly it's coming from China, so another reason to be wary of their juice.

As reallly cheap as it is to make, even moreso in a huge lab like dekang is capable of running, I really cannot see why anyone would bother trying to fake it.

It would be a lot of trouble to find an alternatave substance that saved you more then just a few pennies.

And I dont think it would last long anyways, even most inexperienced vapers would be like = no thanks, something not right with this stuff.

did you know that Everclear is sooo strong it curdles orange juice????

Oh man, back in the day (like when I was a youngin') we used to play this drinking-type game where you'd get milk and vodka, pour it in a glass. Then you get orange juice.. And pour it in too. You have to drink it before the orange juice curdles the milk, otherwise the texture is unbearably gross and usually results in vomiting.

God, we were so dumb. It was awesome.

Well, Cloning Eliquid.. I have heard of rebranding eliquid before. Earlier on in my vaping journey, I was vaping something the company called Dr. Awesome. Supposed to taste like a soda drink, and it did a good job. I tried other companies, but it seems it was a little off from what I was used to. It wasn't until much later, I had some extra cash to spend to finish off a gift card (I use gift cards when ordering oversees for protection), I decided to buy some Hangsen Dr Pepper. When I tasted it, it was exactly what I remembered. I think the company I was buying from was just simply rebranding the liquid as their own.

I'm sure the practice is still done. Maybe a little mixing is involved to change it slightly, but the fact of it being a "fake e-juice" is questionable. A rule of thumb, whether buying an authentic or not, is know your company you're buying from. That's not to say buy from only big companies. Smaller companies can produce some real nice ejuice. But, look at their reputation and their business style. If you don't feel comfortable with them, then by all means, don't buy from them.
