just got home from having a nice meal out with the family. Unfortunately, there was only my Mum, my Sister and my Niece there. Everyone else is working, including the Wife. But still great to catch up with the family.

Got a reply from Dominion juices, apologising about the problem with the order. They've asked if I can wait until they receive it back so they can access the damage, then they'll resend the order. I don't mind, waiting, as long as it's sorted out. It will hopefully help them to perhaps wrap things differently, so it's less likely to happen to someone else. Not like I'm short on juices

I just saw THIS on another thread. Could be really handy for stocking up with. A very good price as well ! I think i will designate one or two freezer shelves

That's the stuff I use mate in my mixing, cracking price from LT - it's the cheapest I've found so far

Edit- I just get the 54mg nicotine liquid in PG, but it's from the same place

I've had a few e-mails from Dominion now, quite impressed so far with the way their sorting out the problem.

Just fired off an e-mail to the RM department that Bob linked. Lets see what happens now :


Hi,
I am very unhappy that today I had to refuse delivery of a parcel, which had obviously been mis-handled at some point in the delivery process. The Postwoman tried to deliver it with the contents smashed. Whilst I appreciate accidents can and do happen, I would expect better from royal Mail. I have had numerous parcels of this type previously and never had any problems in the past. Whilst the contents were not of a particularly fragile nature, they had been well packaged and also placed in a heavy duty bubble wrapped package. I think it should be pointed out to all areas of the delivery team, that a bit more care with other peoples mail wouldn't go amiss. So now I have to wait for the company who sent the parcel out originally to receive it back from Royal Mail, so they can access the damage, before they will ship out a replacement order. Probably meaning it will take another week or two before I receive my items.

The sending company is :

vape Domain
xxxxxxx
xxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx

My address is :

Ian Hxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx

If steps could be taken so that this sort of thing is less likely to re-occur, it will save all parties concerned a fair amount of hassle.
Regards, Ian Hxxxxxxx

Just ordered 210ml of juices from a US site - Giant Vapes, had heard some good reviews of Infamous juice, so ordered 5 x 30ml of theirs and topped it up with 30ml each of Goose Juice & Ducks Breath, with Fed-Ex shipping it worked out at about £5.40 per 10ml + maybe another £0.10/10ml VAT (total was $158.94)

No Likey, you can get 100ml 72mg (that will give you 600ml of 12mg) for £9.99 here

There are loads of places that work out a lot cheaper by googling 72 mg nic base uk like £30 for 500ml

Well done, mate - let's see what excuse they come up with (Oh, we're very sorry etc.)

Thanks Bob, so how do you calculate that on e-juice me up ? All i have done is put in 72mg nic strength, and pg/vg/+ flavouring. Where as with nic/pg/vg ready mixed i wouldn`t know where to start with the calculations

Just added them and another couple to my favourites, thanks Bob

Must admit, I do tend to go with companies that get decent reviews on nic base too. Sometimes, it's worth paying a few pennies more for base that will last a while without going funky TW seems to be the best quality I've used so far, shame it's so bloody expensive.

Haven't used that but here goes:
Looking at this:

You would put the % of PG and or VG nic base that you have at 72mg at the top where it says PG 100% VG 0% 100mg
Target Nic strength 12 if that's what you wanted
Add any flavour %s
then Target PG and VG after the flavours where it says 50 for each (so if you wanted 50/50 just leave those as they are)

Then on the right it would give the amount of each that you required - where it says PG and VG on their own that is the dilutant that is required.

You've got 2 hopes me and none

 

[Bobw1951]

with ready mix it's a lot easier - for say 10ml of a single flavour @ 20% you would use 2ml flavour and 8ml of the ready mix but more expensive

Brilliant cheers Bob, i was missing the target bit at the bottom. In all honesty, i think i will just stock up on nic, as the other ingredients should stay readily available !

That's right, so better to get the 72mg nic as that will give you 6 times as much @ 12mg for less that twice as much for the readymix (concrete)

Don't know if Marcus's comment above is for the one I pointed to

 

[terry w]

I assume that would be a 50/50 ready mixed Bob, seeing as i vape 50/50 ?

Terry see if you think this one is any easier

I can see HMRC wanting their pound of flesh by way of taxes, but I think any restrictions as such will be limited to things like unprotected or unvented batteries and nicotine ratios. Driving .................. at this stage ( and in the couple of years it will take to get legislation organised ) with so many users seems churlish and unreasoned, unless there is some damning research we haven't heard of
What possible argument could they forward for banning vaping whilst allowing smoking ? It beggars belief

I can think of no other reason than cold hard cash!
They've had the safety results for what they can tell at this stage, and there's been absolutely nothing to worry about as long as equipment & liquid is made to safe standards.

I hope we don't finish up with some ridiculously restrictive legislation, but I am at least intending to be as prepared as possible.

Great saying there mate, I've heard it before, but can't remember where now.

'When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains no matter how improbable, must be the truth' Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Sounds like a great plan to follow Trisha. I think I'll be doing something similar, but only with the nicotine. Flavourings, as others have said, no way they can ban them with them being safe for food use. You can buy VG from Boots, it's next to the cough medicine, you can use it for sore throats. I'm not going to panic though, it will be a long time before anything happens regulation wise, if indeed, anything does happen.

I didn't get this far with something I once thought impossible only to let some blinkered band of fools snatch it from me!
I'll do all I can to make sure I have all I need to carry on for a few years at least!
I'll concentrate on getting a handful of bottles of the 72mg VG nicotine from Chefs for now. Think it'll be best in glass bottles though?

I gathered all the scattered stocks of 'spare stuff' from my cupboard shelves today and put it all in a storage box to keep it all together. I have lots of batteries and a fair number of tanks. Always keep a good stock of coils for them, but I'll increase them gradually.
I'm buying more 3mg liquids too - I want to get as low as I can to reduce nicotine dependency!

I just saw THIS on another thread. Could be really handy for stocking up with. A very good price as well ! I think i will designate one or two freezer shelves

I have some of his 6mg base VG - very good.

I've had a few e-mails from Dominion now, quite impressed so far with the way their sorting out the problem.
Just fired off an e-mail to the RM department that Bob linked. Lets see what happens now :

Hope Dominion get it back and send you some better packed replacements soon, and that RM at least make an effort to improve things.
