Outside of Canada ,will they return it ?:confused:
Anything purchased abroad is a risk you take. To date, all my purchases have arrived. But I don't purchase liquid outside of the country.

I do have a large liquid order in and that is a gamble, we will have to see which way the dice roll. But if ensuring that you get your product outweighs risk, then stick to Canada. Our vendors are great and the liquid is as well.

Unless you are talking about pre-filled cartomizers buying prefilled is not very cost effective, as 1ml in pre-filled carts tends to cost 10-100 times more than in a bottle. Unless you toss each cart after the liquid is gone, you are going to be refilling anyhow.

If customs see carts, its been my experience they will inspect them. If there is liquid in them, they are not getting in. Much better, and cheaper to ship one order of empty carts, get them guaranteed, then gamble on the less expensive to prefilled, liquid.

i just want to try some different flavors, the post office gonna open them to check?? the carts should be sealed.

i research about the vg and pg , ppl saying that vg got more vaper and pg got more flavor. Are they gonna cost cancer?
No cigarettes cause cancer.

Here's my take on VG and PG:

  • Some folks are allergic to PG and thankfully VG is available to them;
  • While it is said that VG produces more vaper, there is a cost, clogging atties;
  • VG produces more vapour at the cost of flavour;
  • VG produces more vapour at the cost of throat hit;
  • VG should be cut at a minimum of 4/1 which renders it the same consistency as PG;
  • Distilled water in your mix will produce tons of vapour, without sacrificing flavour or throat hit;
  • PGA will increase throat hit and dilute VG somewhat;
  • There is absolutely no need to exceed 20% VG for regular vaping and 30% for dripping. The cost of 30% fouling attys; and
  • Flavouring adds to premature atty life and fouling, especially the thick coloured ones like coffee, or high sugared content flavours. The more VG you use, the more flavouring is required and it compounds the problem exponentially.
I may be talking out of my ... here, who knows, but I have yet to loose an atty. This includes but not limited to low resistance attys that some have reported only lasted 1-2 days.

I have been a proponent of matching attys (Ohms) to juices etc... this includes using various set ups e.g pass thru vice stock battery etc...

One size does not fit all. Once folks have come to unsderstand and piece all this stuff together, you will think you are in vaping heaven. And that my fellow vapers is no bollocks (bollocks for Domino)
