I was just looking around for my next flavor purchase when i had a idea! right now we are paying over inflated costs for small amounts of flavor, like $2 for 3ml of lorann! If bought in bulk, even after the cost of a plastic (or even glass) bottle (with dropper, unlike origanal packaging) it could be sold for around $1. Would anybody be interested in a one stop flavor shop? Carry flavors from lorann, capellas, flavorart ect. They would not be origanal bottles but rebottled/labeled to bring a much lower cost. Could also sell PG/VG at a good rate (125ml bottles for say $4-5?) Selling empty bottles could also be possible. Even had a the idea of "Sample flavors", 0.5ml of flavor (with lorann that would give 30% flavor on a 3ml bottle) for say 50c a peice. That way you could try MANY flavors for little cost to decide what you like..

So back to the question, would anybody be interested in a store such as this?

I've bought several bottles of Lorans from a couple of different places, but I haven't done much with them yet. I put the bottles into a plastic topped container and then put them away.

This morning I decided to try mixing something, and when I opened my plastic container, I found that the 2 of the 3 Lorans bottles I used before had definitely leaked - the screw on tops don't seem to be able to screw on tightly enough. So I need to find a way to make sure my Lorans bottles are stored standing up.

If you can package flavorings in better containers, I'll pay a slight premium - I paid around $2 to mix up some champagne in a 3 ml bottle, then had to make some more - but now my flavoring is gone, so I paid $2 to use around 12 drops.

I've bought some of the Lorans flavorings from Dawn's shop, and in my second shipment some of the flavorings were rebottled without referring to Loran's, so you may want to check with her about what she knows about re-bottling for resale.

There is an ebay seller called campfirekitchens (there is an underscore, I don't remember where they put it) that will let you pick your flavours of Lorann's out and you can get them for a little over 1$ a dram with shipping. I highly recommend them as I have bought several sets of the Rada knives (amazing! and well priced!) from them. I am going to be getting a 24 pack from them mid month :D

I'm already using tiny droppers that I got with my JC sample pack to dispense my Lorann. A plastic dropper bottle would make it a lot easier. Not droppers to deal with, no cleaner of glass droppers, consistent sized bottle means more consistent sized drops, and the best benefit of all is you can clean the dropper bottle out and reuse it for juice!
