I'm hoping they'll be ready to try before the silly bottle law comes out(think that's mid Nov).
I only ordered 30ml of each,but if they are good,they do 120's.

Good idea! That's why I'm buying more 100ml bottles of the ready to use ones I like most

I was thinking of giving the Caramel cappuccino a go.

I hadn't seen that one was in HVG! I liked it in 2014 - just went off coffee liquids.

The only one I still like but the PG is too high, is NT's Wakonda! (Not just coffee though, but very nice). I like the Virus too (Never got to properly try either without Crème Brule to add 25% more VG though)

I see the website where we signed a petition a while back,is running another.
Calling for the PM to overturn/scrap the TPD.

She'll have bigger fish to fry than that one 'tho.

Just saw that GetVape have an offer finishing at midnight today - it's their own brand in 10ml bottles @ £3, and not a huge selection to choose from, but if the code FREEJUICE is put into the code box at checkout, you get a bottle free and standard shipping is also free.

I just ordered the Scones, Cream & Red Jam & Vanilla Cream Donut - if they're really nice, I'll get some more.

Probably way down the list of rules & regulations to be re-hashed!
Still, it may draw a bit of attention back to it ...long shot, so who knows - she may use e-cigs herself, you never know!

I turned the news off a short while ago - sick of the MP's whining and disagreeing, sick of the media stirring up more unrest, and very sick of the news presenters that are showing obvious bias and adding yet more unrest!

I even heard a theory that Mrs May is being very enthusiastic regarding the exit purely to garner favour in the voting public for the next general election .....well, to be honest, I don't care if she does have ulterior motives - as long as she does what she says she will, as soon as she can!
Drat the lot of 'em!

Off to vape Expo on Friday (B2B) as a Business Advisor hoping to pick up a few new juices, got one today from the cafe, Mr Meringue - Lemon Meringue Pie (30/70) normal price £25 for 60ml (£22 for me), it's the best LMP that I have tried, it's made in CA. USA but obviously available via a distributor over here, searching found that vape Club look like they will be getting it: Mr Meringue Vape Juice

Nice!

Does that mean the retailers here will continue to buy from the US as long as they're willing to sell here?

Don't see why not, but assume that either the US or distributors over here will have to eventually put them into 10ml bottles - will try and find out what the distributors over here are looking at, was talk today of them possibly selling packs of 5 x 10ml in a tub v a single 50ml bottle, of course that may increase the price.

EDIT: Don't forget that B2B does not come under the 10ml restrictions or 20mg/ml Nic, it is only when it goes into retail for consumers that the restrictions apply, so juice can be imported in bulk from other countries and then repackaged over here, there are of course some regulations attached to the repackaging (clean room etc)

Perhaps - the $/£ will affect the price too, but as long as we can get some of our US favourites and DIY a lot of our UK favourites, things should be OK in general.
I think when the 10ml bottle issue was first talked about, some suppliers said that they'd sell in bundles and try to keep the pricing as low as possible. The extra bottles alone will cause a price increase though.

Yes, they'd need to comply with UK (EU ) rules, but I wonder, will that affect us buying direct from the US?
Best solution would be for the US makers to produce bottles of concentrate, and thus make it easier. But it seems that would come under yet more legislation & hoops to jump through (costs) for permission to produce in the US!

Now you can feel like a mad scientist too - I still find it funny to set up my measuring tubes and measure and pour into the larger one! I always get the feeling that one day it'll explode

Ha-ha! Our posts crossed

Edit: I'd thought it meant no discount on DIYorDIE concentrates, not the ready to use that Chefs had made! ...never mind.

I'll have to be a magician to rescue this Grumpy custard.Think old grumpy is a bit flavouring shy.
May throw the last of my LDC concentrate in it.

Dived on there and tried Trish,big no no at checkout

Agree - not impressed. I've just been trying some to basically clear out another different custard flavour, and as it progressed, it got worse! Not brilliant - my 10ml bottle will be ditched!
Still like the Raspberry Doughnut though - just ordered another 100ml - I find it an easy to use flavour.

Dived on there and tried Trish,big no no at checkout

Me too - already had an order ready to go, and it included 5 100ml bottles of the DIYorDIE ready to use! I also had 2 x3mg VG base and a bottle of nicotine, so still saved over £8.
I decided to try the Misty too - anticipating needing to add a cream or custard to it, but happy about that.

Just had a flavouring order arrive today, so missed out on that!

 

[Brynglas]

I was looking at this earlier,think i'll get a bottle and another RY4-U,no discount,but want to build a stock to avoid little bottles.

The Rhodonite is the spitting image of Sleekits - Red Cereal.

I'm using some Rosky at the moment, but do like the Rhodonite equally - I've got the concentrates, but it's nice to have some ready made.

I did order the RY Pistachio one too - sounds rather nice.
The Misty sounds promising, and it can be easily tinkered with - was thinking the Funfetti may be a good one to mix it with, if not, I have plenty of custard and cream ones. I may find I have to mix it with something as too much blackcurrant, blackberry and some strawberries make me wheeze.

 

[Pictor]

Just thinking ...it seems that ready to use ones do keep longer in amber glass bottles, so if anyone intends stockpiling some, it may be an idea to decant it into glass and leave it sealed until ready to use it.
I've bought glass (and plastic) bottles from this company - seem very reasonable prices and postage: 100ml Amber Glass Bottle with Lid
Or, there's these: $2.24 Empty Glass Round Dropper Bottle for E-liquids (50ml) - rubber bulb + glass pipette + screw closure at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I opened a bottle of Dragonscape that had been in my 'stock' for around a year, and it tasted perfect.

Hi all,

New here but just had a quick question after 992 pages of posts on this thread and the old one.

Fasttech? Good to buy from?

I've got a few things to buy, a battery charger, kit for coiling, actually probably a whole new kit after my pico turned out to be counterfeit, so I'm looking at reasonable but reliable UK suppliers you use for hardware (I mix my own).

Happy to look through other lists or locations for this info but just feeling twice shy after being bitten. Also are there any good emails to keep on on UK deals?

I'm ok with amazon/ ebay if you know good people, just finding I'm going round in circles trying to find them.

Many thanks in advance and a big hello
