Over $10 shipping (the cheapest way, usps priority) for 4 samples!
No way am I paying that. I'll wait till I can get an order together for vaporrenu before I pay over double what it should be for shipping.

What did you guys do? Go ahead and order big bottles or did you pay that for shipping samples? I just really need to know.

I just picked up 4 ounce bottles of the following flavors: lemonade, watermelon, red hots, gummy bears, fruit stripe, tropical punch and sugar cookie. The gummy bear was almost twice the price of the others but delivered my total was $50 which seemed like a helluva deal for 28 ounces of flavoring. I've opened them all to smell, they all smell wonderful except the sugar cookie and fruit stripe. I'll mix up some stuff once life slows and I have a bit of spare time to play and let you all know. I expect to have to mix very heavy though since FA is supposed to be the most concentrated and I'm over 10% and often over 15% flavoring with it.

Ok, mixed them all up last night at 20%, and tried the fruit stripe - it's very good at 20% flavoring - most definitely that fruit stripe gum flavoring except a little too much lemon but I'm going to fault that on poor cleaning technique on my part as I used the same syringe, just rinsed between flavors. Red Hots needs more than 20%, the watermelon was very, very good at 20%. Will try two more tomorrow.

Yah, the shipping is what stopped me. I have been searching hard for months now for some tart/sour flavorings, and have just not had any luck. I dont like much of anything sweet, and thats a nightmare for someone trying to vape, lol. 1 million sweet things, and not many tart. I burn 6 ml a day of Red Bull 80/20 25mg/ml. If I had not found this, I never could have quit smoking. Would be nice to find some more options.

Vapor Renu sells the Flavorwest flavoring. I did contact Sarah at Flavorwest. They are no longer doing the samples. I just can't pay over 10 bucks for shipping. Voidmist is having a sale on flavoring. However, they don't have any tobacco flavors.
I might break down an order the tobacco flavorings for Vapor Renu. The current code is "jet" for 10% off everything. (I don't work for the company btw). Just thought I would share.

I've been doing business with Jason at Vaporrenu for quite a while now. Great juice, nice prices, fair shipping. He's a stand up kinda guy.

I got some fruit stripe gum, vanilla cupcake, and virginia tobacco flavors form him.

The fruit stripe I haven't tried yet.

The cupcake is AWESOME. (If you're looking for a sweet vanilla, try this one. I'm gonna mix in strawberry in one bottle, chocolate in another and lemon in another to make a cupcake bakery drawer in my juice cabinet)
Oh! Raspberry. Gotta have raspberry cupcakes!

The virginia is very tobacco-y. With a hint of smoke. I'm not sure if I like it or not, but it's nice and strong.
