First thing I don't want to order overseas since it can take a long time, and I really don't trust products from china really with all the tainted products i posted before. Reading through many many posts for days i still can't find an answer,

This is what i'm looking for 30 ml 24 mg bottles from the US with fast shipping.

Specifially a site that sells virgina flavor( aka canadian type like Export A, Du Maurier, Players. And one that has a strong esresso coffee flavor in the morning since i quit coffee but still love the flavor.

Almost every site i looked at had carmel, cotton candy, mint and all that which i'm not really interessted in. The main thing is fast shipping, reliable.

If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great, there are so many posts here you can spend 8 hours looking and still not find what you are looking for, and yes i did use the search functions but again so many posts and no wants to spend hours upon hours plowing through them all.

Someone mentioned a mocha juice the other day and i can't even find it now because the post come so fast and get pushed back.

I got my kit last thurs and went through 8 carts allready and it seems like such a waste not to use them over and over so i capped them with the rubber and put them aside for later. Like why throw them away?

As far as filling goes that should be now problem, found lots of different ways here like getting a syringe from a drug store and fileing down the sharp part first and not make it look like when you are buying one that you are into smack or anything like that, or the toothpick method.

So far so good now, one battery went dead all of the sudden and started heating up ready to melt and i plucked out the atomizer in time ao i'll just take that one back since they have a warranty.

The main thing though is the e-liquids i mentioned and how fast the shipping is and the quality. One site said they won't ship for 7 days which adds another 3 days on top of that once they actually send it out.

Anyway i'm learning a lot here from the members, lots of great ideas some not so much.

Btw i have to reach for a real cig now that only one battery works :( while waiting it to charge.

PS this goes for all batterys, wheather it's for a power tool or an IPOD or anything, never partially charge a batt because that will shorten it's life and it retains a memory. Don't touch it until full charged.

Aloha;)

Neither here nor there
I think your only options are Johnson Creek, ECOpure (made in UK) and Vermont Vapor, who makes their own. Have not tried JC personally. ECOpure is very good, can be bought at Innovapor, you'll just have to decide for yourself on what flavor/richness to try. They are tobacco flavors. VV has tobacco flavors plain or enhanced with vanilla, maple and the like. Both companies ship fast IME.

I think almost everyone else sends liquid made in China. I've had no problem with these liquids.

If there are other companies selling non-Chinese material, I'm sure someone will correct me.

Thanks chef, figured I was forgetting someone.

Wondering if the juices are made with a base of liquid from China, and custom-flavored. I do know Vermont Vapor says they do not use any overseas ingredients, ECOpure is all UK made, and I know nothing of JC.

If Fud is avoiding Chinese liquid, I believe choices are going to be few.
 
Yeah, Fud...look at Johnson Creek. They have a really nice website, although I haven't ordered from them (I'm still so new at this! Vaping less than a week!) All my stuff came from Rocky Mountain Vapor, and Dave (the guy there) has given me great customer service and faaaaast shipping - free shipping, as a matter of fact, and nice follow-up. I gotta recommend Rocky Mountain.

First, li-on batteries do not have a memory. Second, except for Johnson Creek that I am aware of, all liquid is made in China. The suppliers in the US simply buy it in larger quantities from China and then re-sell it.

My mistake i was thinking of Nicad batterys which are notorious for getting screwed up when unpluggling half charged or not fully discharged. Nicads are already just about obsolete. They don't last long and they can't handle heat very well at all.

3 am now so i will call the suppliers mentioned above, and thanks for the suggestions. First look up the site and see what they have then call and order sort of thing and ask if it's free shipping, Should be it's not like it's a huge box or anything heh.:evil:

I have ordered from Johnson Creek a few times. They have excellent customer service, very responsive and friendly. I like their juice, especially the Tennessee Cured and Tobacco, although they recently changed their formula to remove all tobacco and make their juice more pure (I haven't tried the new formula yet though so I can't speak to it).

I would try Vapornine.com, ask for Ben. He does have Hilton and Carolina tabacco flavors. I have had the coffee and its tastes like real coffee beans. My wife and I were heavy coffee drinkers and we love it. I have not had the tobacco flavors so you may want to ask him what the taste like. Awesome customer service. Shipping is lightening fast. I have ordered on Mondays and got it by Wednesdays. All of the stuff I have bought from Vapornine has been awesome and I have purchased six different flavors.

PureSmoker.com is also very fast and good juice. I am vaping on some Riskee 16mg as I type, it is VERY tasty. Their 5*5*5 is my other fav. I just wish they had non-PG.

Liberty stix when i called where sending out a new battery for the one that died right away and another atomizer. All paid for and a return envelope that is prepaid for the dead batt. I asked them if they had e-liquid for their carts and they said no they have to be bought from them. I kind of find that hard to believe that they can't be topped off. So i ended up ordering from johnson creek and will try Vapornine.com after those run out.

If it doesn't work on liberty carts I'm sure there are blanks the same size and width somewhere. But really how can it not work on theirs if they run dry and just topped off? Sounds like they are blowing smoke, forgive the pun. To sell their own product instead of others.

On their web site they claim to have invented the e-cig they sell. I find that rather hard to believe. Especially when I see other threads were people discuss compatibility of their parts with other established models. Compare to a DSC or BE 103.

That is exactly why i was asking about juice made in the US where you know the ingredients. Why should i trust Chinese goods when they burned us so many times with toxins in their pet food and lead in kids toys? I chose your company because your site said all american and thats where i want to keep it, I just had a problem believing the carts could not be topped off which is what the rep said on the phone, Other than that i'm happy with the product.
