Are you kidding me $25.00 per 30ml bottle, that is crazy for anyone to pay that price for E-juice, is the bottle made from gold ??? All E-liquid is pretty much the same as far as american Liquids and USP brands alike, when it come to a good grade of nicotine thats what counts more than anything, flavoring,PG,VG and any additives are also very inexpensive... There are quite a few good companies now selling really good E-JUICE for half of this price and even less than that.. I personaly would like to know what makes your Product of E-Liquid double and almost triple of the rest of the really good E-liquid companies selling today, I'm not gonna mention names because everyone on this forum knows who sells good product, but anyway please if you can educate me why your product is so much more superior to the others that the prices is $25.00 per 30ml.
Thank You

Yes, the bottle is made from gold by oompa-loompas in our E-liquid kingdom. Only kidding, please read on so I can educate you...
PRICING
I think you may have some of your figures incorrect. First off, lets take a look at the competition. I have yet to see a Supplier of American Made E-liquid selling for less than $20 per 30ml bottle. I'm not talking about the companies that buy unflavored
pesticide grade nicotine base from China and add flavoring, I'm talking about companies that start from high-grade nicotine base. Next, add the cost of shipping to the competitors price. My guess is that your already between $26.95 and $36.95 per 30ml bottle.
We always have
FREE SHIPPING, so our price is still $24.95. Add on top of it the coupon code for 25% off, and our price is down to $18.72 delivered for a 30ml bottle of QUALITY e-liquid.
QUALITY
Ok, now that we talked about pricing, lets talk about why American quality is more expensive. They say that China is going through their industrial revolution now. When the USA went through its industrial revolution, we were using asbestos to line train cars and ....... was an ingredient of Coca-Cola.
China is a beautiful country, and I am not trying to knock the Chinese as a people. They are however far behind when it comes to product safety and sanitary/ethical working conditions. Lets not forget about the lead paint in our toys, tainted pet food, and huge pharmaceuticals and toothpastes--All within the last few years! In addition, they recently found trace amounts of Melamine in some of their Baby Formula. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't get any scarier than that.
Anyway, lets step through it together.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid:
Made in unsanitary sweat shops by 10 year old kids.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Made in Quality Assured Lab facilities and overseen by highly trained chemists. Proper lab facilities and paid chemists cost more than 10 year old children.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid& Some American Competitors:
Made with pesticide grade nicotine, dyed flavorings, Technical grade propylene glycol and whatever else falls into the bottle.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Made with high-grade nicotine, FEMA GRAS flavorings, and other USP grade ingredients. Ingredients intended for human consumption cost more that those intended to kill bugs.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid & Some American Competitors:
Packaged in cheap plastic dropper bottles that leaches a plastic taste into your e-liquid (especially when sitting in a hot container on a Shenzen dock for days). These same cheap bottles are clear, so they also spoil the flavorings and nicotine much quicker when exposed to light.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Packaged in a cobalt blue glass bottle to minimize the light exposure and thereby maintain the freshness of the e-liquid. They are stored in cool storage at the proper temperature until ready to ship. Glass bottles cost more than plastic bottles.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid & Some American Competitors:
Packaged with a screw off cap that a 2 year old could easily remove. John Doe could easily drop some nasty substance in your bottle between shipment and arrival at your door.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Packaged with a child-resistant, tamper evident glass dropper cap. Protecting the kids and keeping your e-liquid from being tampered with costs more than the $.005 cap you get from China.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid & Some American Competitors:
Those wonderful Chinese labels that say VA, without any additional information of flavor, nicotine density, etc. If you are lucky enough to have one that tells the nicotine density, it probably reads 12mg. Is that mg/ml or mg/bottle, or mg/l?
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Detailed labels that show:
- Your specific order number (So you know that this bottle is yours)
- Flavor
- Born-On Date
- Nicotine Density (In mg/ml)
- Lot Code
- Bottle Size
Telling customers what is actually in the bottle costs more than making them guess.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid & Some American Competitors:
If there is a recall on any of the ingredients in the bottle, you'll never know about it.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Lot codes on every bottle allow us to track who received what liquid from what batch. This enabled us to alert our customers if our supplier alerted us of a recalled ingredient. Protecting your safety costs more than ignoring the issue.
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid & Some American Competitors:
Fills bottles to exactly or just below the fill-line of the plastic bottle. Giving you <= 30 ml.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
Fills bottles slightly above the fill line to ensure customers get the amount of e-liquid that was promised, >= 30ml. Adding slightly more costs slightly more than adding slightly less. (Sounds like a cat-in-the-hat line)
Typical Chinese Made E-Liquid:
Made in a hot factory somewhere in Shenzhen, China. Stored temporarily in a hot Shenzhen warehouse until ready to be shipped. Staged on a hot Shenzhen warehouse loading dock for shipment.
Option 1:
Sent to the Port of Shenzhen in a hot trailer. Unloaded into another hot Shenzhen warehouse and moved onto a hot metal sea-bearing Shenzhen container. At sea in this hot container for 20 days minimum.
Option 2:
Sent to a hot EMS facility for air shipment in a hot trailer. In transit from EMS for 3 - 14 days in both hot facilities, more hot trailers and airplanes.
With either option the e-liquid is then at US Customs where it will sit for another 4 - 11 days. If the FDA doesn't want it here, they will send it back, where it will then be re-shipped and go through the above again, adding that many days onto the age of the e-liquid. It will then be delivered to the supplier VIA some carrier. It will sit there in a probably non-temperature controlled warehouse or office until its ready to ship. It will then be shipped to you VIA some carrier service.
HALO American Made E-Liquid
E-liquid is made in our East-Coast warehouse and immediately shipped once to our East-Coast storage facility where it is stored in a temperature controlled room. The e-liquid is then shipped one additional time to you when it is ordered. Storing fresh e-liquid in a temperature controlled area is more expensive (and alot fresher) than the above. Oh and by the way, most flavorings and ingredients spoil in heat.
I hope this helps to explain why Quality American Made e-liquid holds a higher price tag than its overseas counterpart. If you have any other questions, Id be happy to help...
