Also AnalogAlternative. They post now and then in the suppliers' forum section, and have good sales now and then as well. Got a few of their batts, but have not as yet tried their juices.

And not free, but fairly cheap is Ikenvape. They have a sub-forum too. Their first-class shipping is something like $2 if I remember correctly.

Not sure what's so attractive about free shipping. The more you buy, the less shipping costs you per item so I assume the real value of free shipping would be for smaller, one or two item purchases.

I went to one of the recommended "free shipping" sites and priced one 10ml 50/50 mix bottle of a random flavor and nic level and then to two other sites whose proprietary juice (mixed on-site) I know I like and priced the same flavor/volume/nic level, then added shipping charges. The resulting costs were:

$10.74 at recommended "free shipping" site
$8.94 at "shipping extra" site #1 (17% less than free shipping site)
$6.98 at "shipping extra" site #2 (26% less than free shipping site)​

Nothing against the recommended site or their juices, just using it as an example that "free" shipping isn't free if the overall purchase costs more.
