BTW I really like nice packaging too. And I love when a company goes out of their way to make your order special. But hey that is only a part of it. Do they have great juice? That is what you should ask. And if they dont deliver then all the extra frills are for not. However if the juice is bomb and the packaging services and everything... that is a home runner. Now sure as long as the juice comes to me and its yummy I really have no complaint at all. HHV dosen't have cool packaging, nether does VR... but so what right? I will order my favorites and be exited regardless. But I think what alegria is trying to say that the whole package is super sweet. And there are a lot on consumers that care about the minor details. That is why packaging is a multi million dollar industry. I don't care that HHV and VR don't have fancy packaging. They will still be vendors that I purchase from. But over all AIV is at my #1 because they have the full package. Freaking awesome juice, cs a+++, they throw in extras and great packaging. Honestly I think it gives them an edge and makes them the top notch vendor that they are. Wether you care for frills or not.

Thank You Mariah!

You have edited both points of view down to something that should end this discussion as this was not the purpose of this thread!

I for one feel contend to leave it at that!

Look - simple solution. Click ignore if you don't care about what I have to say and I will do the same.

I will have no need to defend my views to you. Nor should anyone have to. We all have our own and are here to share them. Glad you like HHV.

I have no mission either. No unfounded loyalty to any vendor that's why no one's banner graces my signature.

This is my last response to you about anything HHV related. Good night!

As I said before - Packaging it's not a big thing if it is done well but really noticed if it isn't.

The juice as I said was ok - but in my opinion it does not deserve the hype!

Glad all you guys love it though!

I have found a juice today that exceeded the hype! And simply due to the quality of it and the wonderful taste. No idea what the packaging is like - got given some of another member.

Now there is a juice that blew me away!

I don't think you can assert that a juice is not going to blow you away when you've only just vaped it unsteeped. That's like eating a frozen pizza and not cooking it and saying it didn't taste like the commercials said. In my opinion give the juices three weeks before you dismiss them. But something tells me only a small part of your interest and rating on juice is based on whats inside the bottle rather than the paper stuck on it and the box it came in. I mean no harm at all but if I could make a suggestion? You should base your opinion on the juice, you shouldn't let your opinion get soured from the lack of pretty packaging. You can miss out on a lot of good juices that way.

It isn't unique for heather to have mediocre packaging, it's unique for AiV to have the beautiful packaging they do. Think of it as a lovely treat, don't get spoiled by it and have a tainted opinion about other fantastic vendors juices and start excpecting it from every vendor. Your subconscious mind is going to convince you the juice is rubbish the moment it doesn't have a "Thank You" note on it.

*Take it from a HUGE AiV AND HHV fan.*

I actually appreciate that HHV brings premium juice to folks at reasonable prices. Economic times are really hard for a lot of people. I also love it that they care enough to actually formulate juices that are PG free. AIV and Fancee does not and that is very disappointing. I'm ever so thankful for vendors like HHV, Alien Visions, Virgin Vapor and a few others who do care about PG free customers. HHV labels are actually quite lovely looking, IMO. Alegria did not receive the normal labels because HHV cares enough about sending to customers in foreign countries that customs just might detain or decide not to deliver the order with the normal labels on it. It happens, and most of the foreign customers I've heard from appreciate getting their juices without a possible hold up at customs.

And that is exactly right! I feel the same way about AiV

Here in Australia we are allowed to import Nicotine - we just can't sell it. I have NEVER had a package held up or confiscated at customs. So there is no need to give us a product that is inferior in presentation compared to their local orders. Most other vendors are aware of that and have done their homework.

And as I already stated - the e-Liquid is the most important part. And especially in that aspect www.aliceinvapeland.com and www.fanceejuice.com exceed by far what I have experienced from HHV.

Also - if you look at Spinfuel Magazine | The Art of Vaping there is some great product reviews of many vendors.

HHV have become a hype and a "monkey-see monkey-do" product and have an agressive following that will stomp anyone who dares to not LOVE the product. Just stating that it is 'ok' is balsphemy in their eyes.

I am not here to push one vendor and agressivly respond to anyone that does not agree.

I am here to try many things but it is hard as some of their "fanboys/girls" troll other threads and flood them with the HHV propaganda.


I respectfully do not contribute to the HHV Tobacco Thread (which should not be in the general e-liquid thread as it should be a resource for experiences and impressions - the last countless pages are nothing but social banter and should be in another sub-forum).

I do not contribute to that thread as I understand the purpose of it is to share the passion and excitement they feel for the HHV liquids and has become a social-hub for them.

But I am deeply dissapointed with the conduct of SOME of the contributers.


But at the end of the day they don't do HHV any favours with this conduct as they are very poor ambassadors for that brand by flooding the forum with that propaganda and being that unreceptive to others opinion and perceptions and impressions will probably turn more people off that brand than convince them to purchase from them. I doubt this is the culture the vendor would like to be assocciated with. Again - it is a situation of a few spoiling it for the rest of them. Maybe this vendor should give their "Heavenly Army" (what a befitting name considering the conduct) a nudge and make them understand that this conduct is counterproductive and scares a lot of potential customers away).

I intended to re-visit these juices in a week or so and re-visit my views. I will not do this as I will not put myself in a position again to be attacked by those who cannot accept someone elses views.

I hope anyone new to vaping and considering one vendor or another who reads this thread will be wise enough to understand now where a lot of the hype for these products comes from. It's the fanboys/girls that make it often hard to get an informed impression of what is out there before you order and flood this forum with propaganda.

I believe the shipping time has allowed to steep the juices somewhat as I have a little bottle of Pirate's Booty I was given and has steeped sufficiently to the one in my order I recently received and I cannot tell a difference.



I for one will continue my journey in search for other great juices from all those wonderful vendors out there I am yet to try.

Dude, I'll repeat what I've said on this forum a hundred times. If everyone liked the same juice, we wouldn't need all these juice vendors. I don't care if you like HHV or not, it's no skin off my nose, I don't make any money if you buy their juice.

I don't push any vendor. I listen to what people say and recommend what I think they might like, not what I like. I recommend vendors other than HHV all the time. The only thing I've tried to do is correct a few things you said for people that don't know any better.

You're the one that pushes www.aliceinvapeland.com and www.fanceejuice.com complete with links in every other thread on here, whether it fits the thread matter or not.

I'm not sure why you have such a problem with my sig, but it's not against the forum rules, and frankly none of your business.

Bless your heart. That's really uncalled for Alegria. I and others have been nothing but cordial and civil to you as have many who enjoy HHV juices. There is no reason to tear down HHV and the people who like their products. You don't have to like HHV. Fine if you don't. Seriously, I'm truly happy for you that you found AIV and Fancee. Good day and vape on.

I didn't state that I didn't like them (god - do I get sick of stating this) nor am I tearing anyone down especially not people who like them just the few that conduct themselves in a certain way.

This is going nowhere - this is going in circles.

Pointless discussion right from the start!

Hey Alegria, we upped our standards on that thread so up yours if you have any ideas of going on that thread. :D
