Has anyone ever purchased the 99% pure nicotine over the internet?

[HighlanderNorth]

I did a Google search for nicotine thinking I was going to find the standard diluted nicotine from 24mg/ml to 100mg/ml, but I also found ads for 99% pure nicotine for sale. It seemed that most of it is out of China, and I'm not so confident in their safety standards over there, and I'm not so sure about the purity and the possibility of contaminants, etc. Who knows where this stuff is being produced... Then there's always that possibility that you might simply pay for it and never receive it. According to the prices I saw, it would be cheaper, but I still revert back to the above issues as pretty good reasons not to buy it(at least for me)

Besides, there are US and British suppliers who sell 72 and 100mg/ml for low prices, and a 125ml bottle of 100mg/ml should last quite a while anyway!

What do you guys think?

It presents too much danger... Way Too Much. Just stick with 100 mg/ml or less.

Read the stickies in the DIY forum.

I think you should read the stickys at DIY E-Liquid.

Hopefully you'll click the link before this thread is chucked for violating the rules.

Man, I wouldn't go near 99% with a 3.3 meter pole...way too dangerous to be playing with.

There is a better reason, you might kill yourself or someone else who lives with you. Unless your a trained chemist with access to proper lab equipment, I wouldn't even consider it. DIY is cheap enough as it is, no sense adding this sort of danger to it to save a few dollars.

99% nicotine is a deadly poison and requires special safety equipment and training - the average person has no business dealing with it because they have neither.
