Well thats no fun, it looks like it doesn't show a product is pre order only when you are looking at the site from a mobile browser. I've sent an email on that. Sorry Frankster, I really wasnt trying to jerk you around.

I know...I have 2 orders in with them...if they do get it in, I am going to try to stock up on it. It's not cheap at .80 cent per ml...when I first bought it in October it was like .55 cents per ml...lol....unbelievable!

...I had the hf from express...loved it the first time, but not the second

That was my experience too... first bottle was outstanding, second bottle had weak flavor.

I'm currently a Vermillion River fan. My favorites, in descending order:

Premium Blend
No.7
Applewood
Maplewood
Vanilla
Cherrywood
Peachwood

Butter Rum is also excellent, but not a tobacco flavor so not an all-day for me.

Cracks the tanks? I must try this juice!

Anyway, my favorites:
Starbuckets Mocha - Sweet-Vapes (Love it so much I made a group: SV Juice Users)
Pineapple Shake - Kick Bass Vapor
Texas Watermelon - Vermillion River

The worst imo:
WTF - Kick Bass Vapor (WTF indeed KBV)
Cafe Coffee - Vermillion River (wierd because their carmalized capp. is good)
Congress - V2 (got with my first e-cig starter kit and I almost threw up)

The more I vape some juices, the more I dislike them...Even juices that I thought were good do not stack up after a few days.
Based on the 4 or 5 months that I have vaped, I purchased maybe 2 or 3 a second time and hated 2 of the 3 the second time out. The only juice that I have tried twice that I consider a real top of the line juice is BWB Honey flue.

I have not tried the dulcis from the vapor talk store a second time, but I thought that was by far the best juice out there...One thing I find that is so ironic is why are the 2 juices that I consider the best in vapeland out of stock and they are not available... could it be that I really know what a excellent juice is...I think yes...The FRANKSTER knows what is good and whatever the others are...They are the UNVAPABLES....lol

I have no juices to add to this thread, but wanted to say, I enjoy FRANKSTER's juice reviews.

I started DIY awhile back because I could only find one flavor that was good and most tasted like the bottom of an outhouse smells. I've only vaped my own for over a year and cannot imagine going back to all the high hopes and crashing reality of premixed.

Every time I'm tempted to buy a premixed, I read a thread like this and I'm good with passing up the chance.

Thats good to hear Frankster I have the Vaperite 70/30 vr4 on the way. I also like the Goodejuice GJ4 and their Vita Bella.

The vr4 has the potential to be a 10 in my opinion, but I started a thread about... if anyone knew how much better it gets when it steeps. I only have it for a few days and I will be out by tomorrow.

(SNIP from Bills RY4 Roundup - long)

Vaperite has two versions of RY4. What Todd calls RY4 Tobacco is VR's more standard, classic formulation,

while VR4 is the obviously custom variation with its over-the-top gooey caramel.

Vaperite RY4 Tobacco is certainly a solid citizen of RY4 Land (and worthy of your affection), but VR4 is among my personal all-time favorites. I find VR4's richness wonderfully exotic and unique among caramel-tobacco blends, although NiteLiteVapor's Caramel Corral has joined the fray recently to provide a different but equally unusual alternative among caramels.

I hope you like them...Vaperite has this vr4 and it taste like an ry4 should taste like in my opinion

Here is another juice that goes on my wall of shame
Voodoo from Copper Creek...could be worse than pv4 in my opinion...it is real bad. Based on this juice, I am afraid to buy their twisted tobacco...I saved some money on this one, it was given to me as a joke...lol
You might like it?

Given to you how old IS it?

I really cant answer that...it was a 3ml bottle and it looked fairly new. The problem that I am seeing for all these juices is that they all seem to need time to steep. While that may be so, that is no comfort for someone starting out or for someone that is short of cash.

I cannot go out and buy a sample bottle of a juice and then let it steep for 2 weeks, that is not going to happen. Vendors should realize this because in the long run, they are going to lose a tremendous amount of money. The reason being is that if their juice taste lousy to someone in the first week, that person is not going to go out and purchase that juice a second time.

By telling customers to have to wait 4 weeks to try my juice. I feel that is a business management mistake. They need to figure out a way to get the juice to the customer when the juice has reached it's full potential in flavor. Not everyone can afford to steep. I know I cannot afford to do it and there are many more people in my situation. Big problem????

Well, it's simply just not possible to make a juice today that will be "perfect" tomorrow it takes time for flavors to mingle with the PG/VG and then with each other. (most any DIY will agree)

Even IF they're in a position to be able to afford to make "some ahead" to try to get past this how do you know WHICH ones to risk it on And "how much is enough and not too much" getting too old is a major cost when they can't sell it they will lose where unmixed the ingredients last for a very long time. Then we have to consider what "I" like in a week "you" may hate and not love for 2 months, the next person 3 days is plenty and on and on it goes . Sadly that is only the beginning of how "not so easy" the issue in reality is.

It would be great IF we could order ANY juice and it be "perfect for everyone" but I don' think that will happen or it is realistic to expect that.

The great thing (IMO) is that it's pretty hard to find ANY juice that is as nasty as cigarettes taste burning .
