I have a sizable stash of bottles too :)

Yeah and I'm not too bothered by decanting into them as I'm already doing that with my GCD. When one 50ml gets to 1/4 full I turn it upside down to let all the juice work down to the spout end and start a new bottle. Then when the new bottle has room I decant the old bottle's juice into it...I like having my fiddling habits I guess, hence the fact I love making hoards of coils. Gives me a weird sort of routine I guess...:blink:

I stopped throwing them away when I ventured into 500ml bottles. The juice is far more consistent if I decanted the whole 500mls at once rather than just a bit at a time. Plus, when I'm gifted non-NT juices the bottles usually suck so just put them into NT bottles. I keep all of them, even the 15ml bottles as I never know when I need to send a taste of juice to someone. ;)

I thought I liked glass better until I discovered Nicoticket. I love the ease of use with the pointy little nozzle and I don't have to worry about the bottles banging into each other in my juice bag. I do currently have some NT juices in glass from mixing nic levels but I transfer back into plastic when a bottle is empty. At the end of the day it doesn't matter to me what it comes in. I have empties I can fill up for travel and ultimately the glass is better for deep steeps. I have enough liquid to last through 2 apocalypses. I should really consider changing out my existing deep steep liquid to glass but the truth is I get a little giddy when I open up the vape drawer or bag and see all the purple caps. My glass bottles have the standard black dropper and we all know that just isn't sexy!! So on that note will you also have empty glass to sell??

If you read between the lines here its not glass bottles that people hate, its the drippers. I too hate the drippers that come with glass bottles. Theyre a serious PITA when trying to refill Kayfuns etc. And I don't think people love the plastic bottles from NT as much as they love the thin plastic tip. Simple solution is to just buy some dripper bottles from NT or grab a bunch from China and transfer your juice as needed. I have about 20 of them with the needle tip and have been using them with juices from other vendors for months now with no problemo :vapor:

Regarding shipping, the only vender I order from who uses glass bottles is Halo and those, even just one bottle, are shipped in little boxes. I'm sure that cuts down on the breakage. Still much prefer the NT plastic bottles and nibs. Glad i have a good supply of empties into which to decant.

I had actually stopped buying all the glass bottle style ejuices. I just gave away a shoe box full of glass bottles to people at an Alano club. A lot of vapers prefer convenience to perceived value from glass. Bottles like The Standard puts out are super annoying. I hear people complain about it. In fact I stopped buying from any other vendors because you had the best juice and the best bottle style. Your bottle style has actually been a part of your brand image and in photos all over the forums and web. With day in day out vaping these little things like bottle style make a difference. The personal notes,zotz,extras,etc. just made it a dream come true. You have created an amazing ejuice world with all sorts of different cool ideas. There is nothing remotely like it. This whole situation is making me sad, but I understand decisions have to be made in business. I certainly am a fan of you, your juices, and the whole nicoticket family. I appreciate all of your responses immensely. I know these things matter to you. It shows in your product and how you interact with everyone.
None of my comments are made to stir up trouble just expressing how I feel about this.

Oh - no worries! Legitimate concerns, many of which I share. I totally agree, from a convenience perspective, the LDPE plastic is great! In the end, the liquid is indended to be vaped, not stored for prolonged periods of time!

That said, it's spilled milk at this point - the decision has been made. There's bound to be people delighted with the new bottles, and others whom will be disappointed. It's one of those things where, as a business and as a human being, I have to concede that I can't be everything to everyone.

It's all good, regardless... great feedback, I really appreciate it!

As long as its nicoticket juice I dont care what kind of bottle it is. The dropper caps are a pain, but I solved it for me by getting polycone caps and just throwing the droppers away. When I need some juice I use a syringe with a 14 guage blunt tip. The syringes are alot less mess than even the best plastic bottle tip and once you get used to it, its no trouble at all. We as people just dont like change. More times than not though, the dread of change ends up being alot worse than the change itself.
<<<count me as one of these people, LMAO

I understand. My favorite company in Newport Beach said there would be no changes when it went from private ownership to corporate. It was the greatest place I ever worked. Immediately everything started changing. Can't blame me for making my case to try and keep things the same. You know I will always wish you well and want your success. I had to at least try.:)

I would make my case, also - and you make a good one. It's one of those decisions in which you make two columns, there are good (and reasonable) arguments to do either, but in the end - you can only pick one.

    My favorite bottle design came from a Mad Murdock juice I'd gotten. It was square glass, and had a normal plastic cap with no dripper. It fit perfectly into my Lego juice keeper, and was very easy to use a syringe for filling.
    That being said, my syringe has broken and I have not had a good opportunity to replace it. (Apparently trying to find a good syringe for juice is harder than I imagined.) The current NT bottles have been amazingly easy to fill my kayfun without requiring a syringe.
    So I am now officially torn.
