Hi all, from New Zealand

[BlairTheMaori]

Hows it guys. This is my first post but ive scrolled thru a few topics here before so thought id better sign up.
So i just got a big order of ejuice from fasttech. Bout 600mls, 20 ish flavours. Pretty horrible stuff on the whole, except for Pilot vapes wizard of oz, and Liqua mints. One hangda flavour in particular, Strawberry cheesecake, tastes like a mix of brewed soy sauce and death, lol. I even have my brother a go on it (hes been vaping for about 9 months, and got me into it too) and he vomitted in his kitchen! Funny as, but maybe not too funny as I have a 50ml bottle of it.
Anywhom, do I never buy hangda liquid again, and order another 20 flavours off fasttech, of do I steep the 18 bad ones and vape the 2 good ones? Thing is it takes 2-3 weeks for FT stuff to get here. Could it be the high PG? As my brother hadleigh is a bit of a cloud chaser and vapes 80/20 blends, and ive just been stealing his liquid.
Oh, and im vaping my brothers first box mod, the Pico Eleaf with the wee melo300 mini tank. Im really happy with it. Goes great, and doesnt eat the juice like hadleighs Smok g320 or even the alien.

Welcome to ecf. Do yourself a favor and try to learn to make your own ejuice. It is not that hard and there are other members from down under here at ecf that maybe can help you to find what you need.
You can try steeping the bad ones but I would think if it took 2 weeks to arrive to you that it already has. May be the heat got to them? But you are right, don't do that again. LOL

So the flavourings, are they just artificial food flavourings? And hadleigh was saying ya can get VG at the chemist, but its not the right stuff. Is there a certain brand/hrade that I shud be using? Sorry to ask here instead of searching, but im on a rather broken samsung galaxy s3, and browsing the internet is a big headache. Wanna keep this page loaded up while I can

Hi and Welcome- yes eliquids- I have had some really awful ones and some really tasty ones! Reading reviews and asking questions is how I found better tasting eliquids! I am in the US so I have never ordered eliquid from FT!
Sorry I can't make better suggestions for you as I don't know these brands!

 

[BlairTheMaori]

Lets just assume its 8c a ml for a reason lol. I only really got it because it had free freight, and when you order stuff from the US, the postage doubles if ur order doubles, so the postage costs more than the juice lol.

Welcome @BlairTheMaori

Fasttech has sold e-liquid for as long as I can remember. Hangda is (of course) Hangsen, but Hangsen obviously decided to protect their name by getting FT to name things different.

Not all Hangsen is bad. Most Liqua is quite terrible (I'm sorry Liqua) and there are other brands on there which I would avoid. I did spent a long time trying to sort out the bad from the good and never really got on top of it. The Peach seemed a generally-liked liquid. The tobaccos are often excellent. I also bought some dreadful stuff.

What saddens me the most is that lots of domestic retailers still sell Hangsen, some of them marking it up to 'premium' prices. Even if you find a good one, it's not worth the money if you are paying domestic retail prices. Ordering 50ml from Fasttech of one you actually like is not bad value for money.

Do you like menthol if you do you can't far wrong with the cheap liquids. Less to screw up I suppose.
