There was a discussion on that a while back because they had a 50% sale for a few days. But I never heard much back on them. Their concept is interesting to allow you to basically make whatever you like... but expensive. Looks to me that their big benefit is if someone wanted a very specific mix and/or PG/VG mix

My next order, probably tomorrow, will be from Backwoods Brew. I want to try them and the reviews are good..

I have ordered from Gourmet Vapor. I didn't really think the prices were all that more expensive than other sites. Order filling and delivery was very prompt.

I have difficulty with flavors -- tasting them, that is. You can order double or triple flavors from them. I ordered several triple flavors -- very pleased with the results. I also ordered more from their 50% off sale last week.

I ordered for the first time when they had the sale. Due to an overwhelming response he didn't ship as quickly as normal but it's out now and it should hopefully be here tomorrow. I can report back what I think if you are interested. What I do know is the customer service is fantastic. We ran into a small hiccup and after a brief phone call I couldn't be happier with how he approached and handled the situation. Nice guy :)

I order from them when they have a sale. During their last sale I ordered 120ml of Seattle Blend. This is the only juice that I have ordered from them, but it is excellent - a really nice tobacco and coffee blend, and it is my favorite all day vape. The juice is excellent and the service was very good. I have read suggestions that you should order the pre-mixed juices and avoid placing a custom order of your own blend, which they let you do. Many posters didn't like the custom blends they concocted and were stuck with purchase since they had picked the flavors themselves.

That may be another reason to go that direction... I need stronger, stronger flavor... Light flavor doesn't do anything for me...

I ordered from GV, too. It should be here either today or tomorrow. I emailed about why it was taking so long to ship and got a very quick and friendly response. Bonus points for them! They are slightly more expensive than other vendors, but you get to create your own flavors and strengths, plus you can share your creation with others and get bonus rewards whenever you or other people buy your mix. If what I ordered is good, then I'll be ordering from them again, even though it took a while to get it delivered.

When I talked to him he said the response to the sale was unbelievable, and that he normally gets orders out in in about 48 hours. With the huge response that wasn't possible.

I really like the flavor builder he has set up. The flavors, in the description, state certified gluten free. I didn't see it in a number of the tobacco flavors but I'm not huge on tobacco flavors. It was nice to just being able to see. So far I've had some companies know which were gluten free, or give me the info for their supplier so I could find out. Others couldn't (or wouldn't?) give me that info.

I just got my order from GV and so far I'm very pleased! I'm dripping so I can test all the flavors and I'm in heaven right now! If I'm not careful, my atty might be going to heaven, too!


Lucky you I am still with out juice. I really hope mine comes tomorrow, Or I think I am shelving this vaping thing too frustrating for me

You happened to order when they had 50% off and the company got overwhelmed with orders because of that.... Giving up on vaping and back to analogs would be "less than wise".

I definitely wouldn't give up on vaping because of the juice situation. As soon as I realized that my order hadn't been shipped after a couple of days, I ordered from my primary vendor. As it turns out, both orders arrived today and set up with juice for quite a while now.

I'll take this as a lesson learned.

1) Don't wait until you're starting to get low on juice to place another order.
2) Don't take advantage of a half off sale when you're starting to run low on said juice.
3) Always have a back-up vendor!
4) Invest in a DIY kit so you can CYA in case of emergency!

I understand all to well about being over whelmed, If I could have ordered from some one else I would have, But not realizing they would get backed logged I ordered twice. So my fault
