Any vendors give out free samples of things that you don't like? On purpose? I'm thinking if any vendors would send out free samples of things that aren't on my wish list that would be awesome. The reason is, if it sounds yummy, I'll probably, eventually, gonna buy it anyways. While I want to try new flavors(if I'm honest with myself), if it doesn't peak my interest I probably wont buy it to test it out...just vape for thought...

Are you talking in the sense of, "I just ordered Apple pie, cotton candy, chocolate pudding, grandmothers oatmeal cookies, sugar coated sugar with sugar frosting, sugar plum faeries dipped in hot fudge, capn crunch, banana laffy taffy, and sugarsaurus rex, so why is this vendor sending me a free sample of bitter butthole with sea salt?"

LMAO!!! Not exactly...but my point is you buy what you like...I want to go outside of my comfort zone and try new things, but I wont buy them, because I don't want to waste the money on something I MAY not like...I know there has to be a diamond in the rough out there somewhere...

Oh come on now. I had many free samples that sold me to try it a gain. And some that were barf worthy. I should think that vendors should look at what you order is. Give a fruity a fruit sample, give a tobacco order a tobacco sample. I have a place that you can actually ask for a sample by name. (The Vapor Room.) I like that. They got me to order again.

i do understand the OPs point tho.


if i ordered a 30ml bottle of "gorilla juice" and "pannycake heaven" both at 8mg, the vendor - if they send samples - will end up sending a sample of "gorilla juice" at 24mg.


i already bought it, why would i like to sample something im already sampling? - also note the MG levels. i vape low MG, so why send a super high mg i cant vape unless i dilute it down to 8mg and loose over 50% flavor?


ETA: if any vendors are reading this, please improve on this "sample" idea.

look at the orders and throw in a sample of something thats NOT on the order, and try to keep it within the same mg levels(my order is for all 8mg juice, maybe send a 8mg or 6mg or 0mg, NOT a 24mg or 32mg)

I got a sample pack from C+____ V____, back when I first started trying to quit with Vaping.
The gentleman that ran the online store was a member of the motorcycle forum, that I am.
I asked his opinion on what to get and he set it up, and I bought it. Total train wreck.
He swore I needed 18mg to quit, but I could never tolerate it.
Once I got my e-liquid to 6mg and could tolerate it, he sent me two samples, both of which, I think he mopped up off the floor.
One was peanut butter cup, never ate a peanut butter cup that tasted anywhere near that.
The double chocolate mint was definitely no winner either.
