    @CatDad - If you decide to order from either of the above, they each have a coupon code that will take a % off your total order.

    At OneStopDIYShop...you can use JFK and get at least 11% off, sometimes more.

    At BullCityFlavors...you can use ECF6 to get 6% off.

    Flavor Jungle also has a 50% off Sale going on now and Sunday, for ALL flavorings found at the link below. The coupon code is: JULY50
    I checked and didn't see Flavour Art Forest Fruit in that 50% off collection, but...other flavorings you want might be there. I already chose to have them sorted in ABC order, but you can change that easily.

    TAKE 50% OFF

    I could be wrong, but those look like Sea Monkeys.

    I literally have an order hinging on Nic Giants response to the situation originally posted in thread. I doubt I'm the only one.
    Was going to get a couple orders of their Nicotine in ready to freeze 120ml bottles, and one in the larger bottles, plus a gallon of VG and slew of flavorings. I planned on spending a couple hundred bucks if need be.
    But I'm not going to pay that much for a chance to get Sea Monkeys.

    Anybody else still shipping nic? I know that gets asked a lot.

    nicotine giant...their nicotine has a really odd, weird, bad odor

    Would you say the odor is like a dirty ashtray smell? That's what almost all of my Heartlandvapes nicotine smells and tastes like. But at 6mg, it doesn't take much flavor to mask it.

    Previously I got all my nic from River, and I was happy with it, but I often noticed a slight smell I assume is a tolerable amount and normal even with a relatively pure substance. Tiny bit of color too, but I could only notice this when in a large amount - when poured in smaller ldpe bottle I could not see any color.
    It always smelled slightly of shrimp shells to me. Salty shrimp shells, yep. That's what my brain always interprets it as anyway. Probably the mediciney smell you are getting. How strong the smell is may be a difference between good and not so good, you would have to be the judge. I'm just conjecturing here.

    It's been rebottled by Nicotine Giant for resale. Most vendors buy flavorings in gallon size and then rebottle them into the smaller sizes they sell.
    I've only had one bad experience with this (it was Heartand Vapes) Not odd stuff floating around in the bottle... would have had issues right then) Just no flavor. Anyway, did you have any other issues (I have not used this company so no experience) This is not good news for me (was going to order some nic from them) I hope everything else is OK but this is not acceptable.

    Floaties, harsh smell, no response from customer service, just order from somewhere else.

    Oh my gosh, that's an old add (probably the same one I ordered from back in the day) Brine shrimp... and yes they swam around and were really fun to watch (but no... no monkey tricks)

    Yeah, they were a bit disappointing. When I was a kid I also ordered from the add that showed two kids sitting inside a submarine. I was so excited, only to have my fantasy of traveling the oceans as a submariner dashed when I got the package. It was a cardboard box.
