just wondering about people experience with these ejuice monthly subs that are out there like,
zamplebox,easyvapeclub,nicpik,dripclub,ejuicepack,craftvapery,vapebox,
ive spent the better part of a month looking into each of these to try to decide what one ill like the most.
I have watched a 100 reviews but everyone seems to love everything about each of them so i start to
wounder if they are just bias because they are getting them for free for review or something .

so basically im wondering what clubs you guys have joined what you thought of there service,juices and selection they made for you.
i just joined Craft Vapory as they seem to have some of the higher quality juices out there and am thinking of joining Vapebox next
here is a referral code for Craft vapory that saves you 20% for the first month if anyone is interested

I did zamplebox for a few months and most of the juices were good to just okay. I think I had one that I couldn't vape. But I really found that I prefer ordering juices from various vendors vs a monthly subscription. Some months I spend a little more that way, but other months, less. And I pretty much always get something I love flavor wise.

I used to do zamplebox (early member) and it was a hit or miss for me of whether I liked the juice or not. But that is what I signed up for as getting a mix of different stuff to try. I found some juices that I really liked and others that were ehhh to in the trash. If you're looking for a "sample" type service then it's not bad. I've thought of trying some of the other services around or rejoining zamplebox. I just haven't decided yet.

yea i had debated on doing the same but its been about three years that i have been making my own juices, back when i started making my own all the pre-made juices i could get my hands on were bad-tolerable at best Mrs-t had a few i liked but they were often to thick for what i was vaping them with back then,so basically i dont know whats good out there for newer juice vendors so i figure a few months of these clubs should help give me an idea of some better brands and flavors available
,im also not into cheep juice i like a good quality juice that actually taste like whats its advertized as with no floral,alcohol,peppery after tastes that used to plague most the juices a few years back, i have sampled a few bottles here and there from vape shops so i know juices have gotten better and im getting sick of making my own so i figured one of these clubs would be good for me for awhile:)

i just quit my zamplebox and regret doing so. i was getting the 6 bottle (approx. 90 ml) box for under $30 a month including shipping. i cancelled because of money being tight right now and having a boatload of juice on hand. i was a member for 6 months which means i got 36 bottles and maybe 5 or 6 were just ok. the rest were excellent. some examples are Nick`s Blissful Brews smoked custard and Hurricane Vapor`s coconut from their Fog Milk line. Ben Johnson`s CR3AM and Good Life Vapor`s Melon Boba. the list goes on. it was well worth it to me, YMMV

yea i looked pretty hard at zamplebox myself the price was defiantly right i was thinking of doing there 11 bottle plan but alot of what they carry i can get at local smokeshops and liqueur stores i was looking for a bit more on the exotic side but might still try zamplebox at some point:)

ok got a chance to try them all out and im pretty impressed there were a few there i didnt think i would like at all like the" lola from traditional 40pg/60vg" the description is
"This seductive vape will tickle your tongue wild with a satisfying blend of strawberry and hibiscus tea."
im no fan of tea at all but i have to admit this is one of the best tasting juices i have ever had the tea is very mild and the strawberrys are just amazing it taste like they crushed some strawberry and crammed them in a bottle,i love strawberry but every juice i have tried with it in it even stuff i made tasted like candy strawberrys not real ones,amazing stuff..

next flavor was Loop Ninja Nick's Blissful Brews 100%vg,
described as "This fruit loop flavor is assassinating the competition with a perfect balance of fruity cereal and milk."
this one was max vg so this one i dripped and wow i was expecting like fruit loops with some cream flavor but instead it actually tasted exactly like fruitloops with some good old whole milk, i have never had a juice with a milk flavor that was actually a milk flavor seems most just use like a whipped cream or something,anyways very good.

next up was King Kong by Majestic 40pg/60vg
this was described as "This decadent banana creme brulee is so good, you’ll find yourself prepared to scale the walls of the nearest skyscraper for just one taste!" this was another one i wasn't sure i would like as all juices i have tried with banana in the past have had that fake banana laffy taffy flavor not this one it actually tasted like a real extraction of banana not sure how to describe the cake in it except it is deep and rich and well balanced with the banana this one hits thick and give a good cloud for not being max vg

next up was Blue Label by Proper 100%vg
described as Fluffy whipped topping and vanilla ice cream are piled high atop a decadent, sugar-laced brown butter cake. Savor the elegant taste of exclusivity
this one is easily the most complicated of the flavors if you realy try to break the flavor down you can taste the description but to me smells and taste like rum cake gives a huge throat hit and produces a truck load of vapor but had a slight alcohol flavor so im letting it breath for a day or two

last was Juice Monkey by Boardwalk 30pg/70vg
description is "This perfect blend of piña colada and banana tastes like spring break, minus the hangover."
this one im not to sure on it taste primarily like pineapple to me and smells like tanning lotion so i think ill need to steep this one awhile and get back to it

but over all im pretty impressed with everything from the packaging to the juices and there selection i really didn't think i was going to like some of what they sent but apparently there people are pretty good at curating some good picks with the limited info you give them on your flavor preferences.

Why do you not want to make your own any more expensive? Time consuming? Quality? Im just triing to fugure out if I want to take on diy or if its not worth it also keep hearing closest to cig is no flaver juice any imput on company or pg vg ratio thanks all

Thanks for the review of all the flavors, definitely helps. I'm thinking about maybe trying a subscription and seeing if its worth it. How do you feel about the cost of the service compared to the quality of the juice?

well if your new to vaping or kind of gotten stale on what flavors you use/buy/make then this is a great way to try out some of the better juice company's out there and some flavors you may not have thought to try,i went with craft vapes first because they sample hundreds of flavors from multiple brands each month and only add the best they can find,they also give you alot of room to tell them what you do and dont like and they go from there to make you a custom box out of the 5 they sent me there was only one i would have ventured to order on my own and i would have missed out on these other three bottles im really vaping the crap out of right now extremely good stuff. as far as it being worth it..most there juices are from $12-$14 per 15ml ,im my package i went with the 5 bottles x15ml ,so lets say $12 x 5 so about $60 worth of juice normally i would pay about $50 a month from them but i had a 20% i used this month so i payed about $43 with shipping so well worth it for me,

that said if you already know what you like for juice and dont really need or want to find some new flavors then no i wouldn't think the risk of getting a bottle or two that you dont like be worth it i would just order stuff you like, while you do save a bit of money with this it only counts if you like all the flavors you get and there is always a chance you wont,but another fun part of this is opening up a box of juice not knowing what your getting lol its like opening a Christmas present lol. nice little monthly surprise:)

no no making your own is defiantly economical and without a doubt the cheapest way to go, and can be very fun to do,it will cost you a bit upfront to get started tho defiantly not cheep if you are going to want a proper set up/safety gear and a good assortment of flavorings but once you do your set for a very long time,i just kind of got lazy with it ive been doing it for like 3 years vaping only my own juices it was just time to tastes some other peoples creations and maybe inspire me down the road for some more mixs i can make myself:) i have made tons of great juices but i kind of fell into a rut of making the same things after awhile i have like three daily vapes that i was making 500ml bottles of so i wouldn't run out i bet i have vaped close to 2 liters worth of my key lime pie recipe just love it with its crust whipping topping and strong keylime flavoring i thought i would never get sick of it,but the longer i vaped it the less i could taste it any more and would have to take weeks or even months away from it before i could even taste it anymore lol

one tip for you tho if you do get into DIY make sure to label all you flavorings bottles with dates because youll be adding to them from time to time and after a couple years you have possibly hundreds of flavorings ands no way to tell whats getting old other then by smelling them and thats hard to go by because once you've smelled a few flavoring bottles you can smell anything for some time after,very strong smelling stuff.also store them in some nice sealable Tupperware so your whole house dont smell like funky flowers and stuff lol

i was buying it at 24mg nic that way its fairly safe that 100mg nic can be pretty dangerous to work with one droplet of it misplaced and you could get pretty sick from it or could end the life of a pet,i use the 24mg use a clean counter rubber gloves, long sleeves, even at 24mg it can get you pretty dizzy,sick if you get some on you and dont notice and wash it off quickly also keep in mind that you will be using 10-20% flavoring in your liquids so 24mg with some flavoring will end up being around 18mg eliquid.
either way its a pretty fun hobby,i usually get my nic from myfreedomsmokes or wizardlabs i prefer myfreedomsmokes as there larger bottles come in amber glass containers that are great for storage.
