Loyal to just one vendor?

I'm thinking of moving all of my business to AiV simply because she offers everything I like under one roof and I love that special touch they give. Anyone else have a vendor that meets all of their needs? I'm sure that most people have one favorite vendor and several others that offer juices that the main one doesn't offer or might do a little better. If you have just one vendor that meets all of your needs, please tell who it is and why.

I've been vaping since August 9th (almost 6 months). I have tried 12 juice vendors, 7 equipment vendors, and 81 juices (1,773 mls purchased, not necessarily vaped). Most of those within the first two months of vaping and not including gas station e-cigs. I figured out I have a sensitivity to PG, a horrible reaction to anything cinnamon, hate bakery and desserts flavors, grew tired of fruits, fell in love with NETS, and finally how to vape without getting nic sick. I settled on 2 juice vendors and 3 equipment vendors. Besides sheer exhaustion :)laugh:), and being out of money :)laugh:), I think I found the perfect juices and setup for me.

I can't live without HHV's and Highbrow's tobaccos. And between altsmoke, gotvapes, and vaporkings...I'm fully loaded. And happy. And not smoking.

:vapor:

EDIT: I also did the same for my Mom but she's easy...twists and green apple juice and she's happy. Too easy and she vapes like a couple of drops a day.

I will always be trying different vendors. Even juices I love tend to only get reordered a couple times before I've had enough of it. That's the fun part for me, trying different juices and having variety. If I had to choose only one vendor I could ever order from that would be Ahlusion. Huge variety and they do every category of eliquid better then most, from fruits to drinks to NETs, each juice is done to perfection. I only keep a few bottles from them at a time, as I plan to always have some Ahlusion liquids for years to come.

Ahlusion looks like a wonderful vendor and I heard great things about them too!

Really gotta find a way to get some of their stuff to our shores!

I think it takes at least several months of vaping and trying new things before one could or should pick a favourite vendor.

For the first 2 or 3 months peoples taste buds are still in recovery and what they are tasting is not really what the juices are.

After that period people would really have to revisit all vendors they tried then and try new ones to really have an informed and educated opinion.

I tend to speak to people who have been vaping much longer than me to get ideas where to order from first as I remember too well that what I once thought about a vedor changed DRAMATICALLY after the first few months!

While I think I get what you're trying to say, I completely disagree on this particular point. It doesn't take a lot of vaping experience to decide that you've taken a liking to juices from a certain vendor.

It's not like I can't change my mind later, and I still try out other vendors, but so far I've found I've found one of them to be consistently good, and to have a few that I find I always want to keep ready-to-vape, and that I prefer to all the other juices I have that I could be vaping. Some I've enjoyed more than any others.. i.e., they've become my favorites. I don't see that there's anything wrong with making that observation.

I'm finding that having only one vendor or even two sells yourself short. After a while, I become accustomed to a line of juices or a particular flavor profile and my taste buds get bored. One of my vendors has so many flavors, be they teas, tobaccos or fruits, that I am always kept interested...for the time being. Another vendor I use often has perhaps 8 or so juices which I buy regularly. After some amount of time I'm sure I will just want something else. It's the same with food. I don't eat at the same two restaurants every day. If I did, I would surely get burnt out on them both. Periodically branching out is something I make a habit of doing while keeping my favorites in my arsenal at all times. Blind allegiance is only limiting. That's not to say I don't believe in customer devotion. Building a relationship with a few solid vendors pays off in dividends. It's just like knowing your local butcher by name. You're gonna get the best cuts and the best service. The point of this rant being: Don't eat at the same restaurant every day, and get on a first-name-basis with your butcher. End rant.

Guys and gals, please just let this thread die or a mod lock it. I'm only interested in hearing from those that use one single vendor and why. I get your points, you like multiple vendors and that's not what this thread is about.


I have moved to 2 vendors for juice. Why? Less clutter. Now it took some time for me to find vendor relationships that I really enjoy but once that happened, I kinda of tuned out the other noise and really just enjoyed vaping, my juices and my equipment.

I order 60 ml bottles now and I rotate between 4 flavors. Life is easier and I don't feel the need to try everything 'hot'. I don't feel like I missing out on anything.
