I see all different suppliers sell different kinds and I guess different liquid brands. What assurance does anyone have that the strength is what is listed? I know none of this is regulated and really wonder what would prevent a manufacturer from cutting the nicotine strength. Nicotine is the real expense in the liquids but all strengths are priced the same which also doesn't make much sense.
Liquid Strength?

we dont have any assurance....we have to take the suppliers word for it. if they want our business they have to be honest with us...that is what i want to believe
But how does our supplier know if the manufacturers claim of strength is correct?
WE are all riding on blind faith at this time... No way to know, no way for many of us to check unless we are chemists... I have to just jump in and believe.

Maybe what I am looking for here is for a supplier to chime in. I have bought from about 5 different suppliers and most of the packaging looks very homemade> Johnson creek is the only one that looks professional and they admit to making their own liquid.
Do suppliers receive their liquid in large containers and then repackage? Or do they receive the liquid in the containers they sell and just label them?

Pretty much is the operative phrase, If that is the case are you suggesting that suppliers are adding to a flavor or possibly making their own concoctions from whatever they receive from the few manufacturers and then bottling it to sell?
Well I really wonder. I see the most popular liquid seller from this board sells out his stock within minutes. His liquid (mainly menthol) is different than every other supplier. Does this mean he has a exclusive selling agreement with a manufacturer to sell this product? Or is he making or doctoring a liquid?
This reminds me of stories my grandpa told me about about enterprising individuals during the prohibition> And yes, some actually did use baths tubs for their mixing.

I think this is one of the reasons the FDA has concerns over this product. I hope we can develop more quality assurance and regulation without getting these things banned. If you read some of the posts on here you will see people are willing to go to extreme measures to continue vaping, like pulling nic from nicotine patches and trying to home make their own liquid! 8-o
I will be opening a web store shortly and will be buying liquid bulk directly from the manufacture and re bottling completely unaltered. I will only be carrying one strength (18mg) and a limited number of flavors to get started but I would never want to alter the manufacture formula by adding pg of vg to cut the nic content or add lor anne candy flavorings.
Please note that I am not claiming that other suppliers are doing this or that if they are they are doing so unsafely. I have tried many different brands of e-liquid and enjoyed them all.

No he won't but the most popular high strength could actually be a lower strength and labeled incorrectly. Now before everyone wakes up in the morning and I get flamed, I am not accusing him of doing this because if he was that dishonest he wouldn't be running out of the high strength so quickly.
My point is that if liquid is repackaged it is very easy for a dishonest supplier to cut the liquid in order to produce and sell more liquid. But that is something that the manufacturer may also be doing.
Finally, as I stated in my original question which I have digressed from, Why are all strengths of liquids priced the same when the main cost of liquid is nicotine?
