Finally broke down and placed my first order with Nicoticket, 15 ml of the virus. I cant wait to finally try it and hope it lives up to the hype.
Chances are good you will love The Virus, shatteredsoul. I love Virus FRESH. But some people only like it steeped a few weeks to a month or so. Try it at different stages and you will know what you like best. But if you (or anyone else) come across a flavor that doesn't hit for you, Nicoticket has a swap thread. Someone will trade you something else Nicoticket to try. Here's a link to the Swap thread, it's a great place to get some well steeped juice, too.

I'm more fascinated by Nicoticket than any other vendor. I ordered the 6 most popular flavors a few months ago and have been trying them at various points in the steeping process, thinking that it would help turn things around. But I just sorta hate all of them, where it's semi unvapable for me personally. I will say that the flavors were all unique and creative, and nothing like the countless other flavors that I've tried.

I almost wonder if these flavors appeal more to those that don't care for most other flavors. I'm just thinking this out loud to give an alternative take, since I think sometimes the hype around the brand made me assume that most people will love these. I just wonder if it's a bit more unique than people are expecting.

Just my take, no offense meant to them or their fans, since I really do feel like I'm missing out. I would personally suggest that anyone trying them for the first time just do 1 or 2 flavors max. Don't go overboard like me if you're not sure.

My experiences with Nicoticket: I don't think they sell a "bad" liquid. Everything they have, and everything that I've tried, is top notch, unique, different-in-a-great-way, super high quality liquid.

I like some way more than others. I'm not a huge vanilla fan; quite a few of their liquids focus on their top notch vanilla. If you like vanilla, or anything related to vanilla, you will ADORE everything they create involving any hint of vanilla.

With that said: I will always keep the following NT liquids in stock, in THIS order: (some may even include their vanilla!): Raz Cup, The Virus, Wakonda, and Grandma's Cinnamon Danish. This is my list as of 3/7/2015 @ 11:42pm CST. It may change in a matter of minutes.

ETA: My local B&M chain just started carrying some of my NT favorites. Uh oh.

My take/My opinion: I pay a relative and reasonable premium for Nicoticket and a few other select retailers. I do this for their (perceived by me) high quality (no run of the mill generic/artificial flavorings), their fantastic customer service (if you have any issues, they will be resolved immediately), and because I know where they come from (ISO certified clean rooms that I am happy to help pay for). I'll gladly pay a few extra bucks for these things without question.

And I've had similar experiences for quite a bit cheaper. Enough of a difference where I'm now buying HANA's and Vapor Flasks instead of mods from China like the majority has to do to support their juice habit.

I'm not trying to knock Nicoticket because I did enjoy their juice. I just believe a lot of vendors get carried away because of the cost of a pack of smokes after state and federal tax. Because its "Cheaper then Smoking" or "Cheaper then Vuse", few people question it. It creates a perceived value far different then what the juice actually costs to make and package.

And I could understand the prices back when an MVP 2.0 was considered to be high watts. But as the industry evolves and even entry level mods are now hitting 30 watts, people are buying a lot more juice. As a business owner, you no longer have the same overhead from the majority of your customers buying a $30 bottle of juice that they are going to vape for a month or two before buying more. Shouldn't this bring the price down? Especially when you are a larger vendor with more then enough popularity to keep the money rolling in?

Good points, and glad you've been able to find some similar vendors with the same standards. I've had some trouble with this.

As these new high quality vendors continue to grow and make their brands known, perhaps the prices will become more reasonable...

So got my liquids in the mail yesterday. Loaded them up in some protanks and gave them a whirl. From what I had read, they would get much better with some time, as I find almost all juices do, at least in my opinion, but I was also curious to taste them right out of the package, So, expecting to not be immediately thrilled, I gave the Virus a few hits, Not bad, but definitely sweeter than I usually go for, I'll give it a few days and try it then. Wakonda, same thing, lots of cream and not much coffee yet. A few hours later, I figured I would give The Virus another taste test, Wow, this is actually already tastier than I gave it credit for right off the bat. That "taste test" turned into me chain vaping it until I fell asleep. I had already set the tank with the Wakonda in it next to the bed so I could give it a whirl when I woke up (I planned on it being my morning vape, for obvious reasons). Holy crap that's amazing. It's my day off, and to say I was a bit hungover would be quite an understatement ( freind/coworker's birthday party the nigh before). I literally laid in bed chain vaping it for over an hour. Am completely thrilled with these guys. I had high expectations and they exceeded them, congrats.

Glad to hear you liked your NT juice, lefty! Maybe I missed this, did you order big bottles? If not, order up some more ASAP! If you would like to try a few more, Grandma's Cinnamon Danish is very good. Absolut Creme Brûlée is fantastic, but needs restocking on most nic levels right now. Frenilla and Strawnilla are two more vanilla offerings that are well received. Custard's Last Stand is flavor of the week right now with 20% off using coupon code "CLS-20-31015" Chances are good with Nicoticket that if you like one, you will like many of the others.

It's funny you say that, I got GCD for the lady with the two I ordered for myself. I also already signed up for the newsletter so I don't miss out on the flavor of the week deals. And yeah, I ordered 30ml this time, but I have a feeling my next order will be the larger ones. I'm so hooked on this stuff, I fear the other stuff I have stashed is just gonna sit unless I make myself take a break from the NT flavors now and then.

I've been using a Tesla\Protank combo and have been very, very happy. I would love to try it in other devices, but the only other one I have is VV/VW ego style and have still enjoyed it on the go.

I use an ego and PT2 mini with unflavored every day for on the go and stealth vaping, no smell at all. The Magma clone can be had pretty cheap. $15 ish. Recently bought a istick 50w ($50 ish ) Works great.
