Bear in mind that "USP Grade" has absolutely no relation to manufacture in the USA, and absolutely no relation to certification by the USA. USP is just one one of zillions of companies that have put "US" into their name in a deliberate attempt to mislead those of us who are misleadable (which is each and every one of us at some time or another.)

Perhaps I need to be more skeptical. I am about many (similar) claims - such as when a restauranteur says they use only local produce :) Hadn't thought the same nonsense might exist in this arena. Naive :facepalm:

I'm not saying it isn't exactly as stated but, I am say... mmmmm, makes me wonder. Caution is warranted.

Sent with no malice and not a whole lot of forethought from my new Galaxy Tab 4. Thanks Santa!

No master mixer here but from what I understand, be careful. Just because it's a concentrated flavor does NOT mean it's safe to vape. Stick with the know vape vendors.

Absolutely! That's what I'm trying to do! It's just that there are soooo many vendors, and everyone seems to be committed to their opinion of each :)

Definitely ask here. That way if someone paruses the thread, they might also learn something. :)

I will. I've been perusing ecf threads for quite some time. There's a ton of great info, here!

Yup. Absolutely!

Everybody certainly does have their own opinion. On vendors, tanks, mods, flavors, etc. It's cuz we iz all human and all different. :) Just because someone loves (or hates) something doesn't mean everyone would have the same opinion. You really have to try it for yourself and experiment.

Even if 100's of folks say they love something an no one dislikes it doesn't mean you won't hate it. :) And that's why this hobby can get dang expensive!

One of the few things I don't like about this hobby, not being able to hands on before buying. I really do like to fondle the merchandise before purchasing, especially now that it seems things are getting more and more expensive. Anybody notice that.

OK, after realizing that it isn't even possible to place an actual Internet order with "VaporGirl", I'm doubling down on my original statement and saying that as of today, it is not possible for anyone to order US-produced nicotine juice on the internet. Apparently, VaporGirl hasn't yet figured out how to process or accept internet orders.

That question could be interpreted in so many ways.

I was petrified when I ordered my first ProVari. They looked enormous in photos. It is kind of a gamble.

Shhesh. I just called VS and they told me I should have my VS shipped by the end of the week. They had 2600 orders just on the 1st of Dec. I didn't order till the 26th. Oh and my wife sort of lung inhales sort of in between mouth to lung and lung. She knows how to vape OK she has been doing it for almost a year. She just has to want to give it up. Well My nic is on its way and Lemos and Vape Bands just no Vapor Shark. This is almost as long as I had to wait for my first Provari. I got so impatient I had to order a Provape 1. I probably could order a Vapor Flask today and have it before the VS.

I'm actually sitting on the back porch, enjoying a little quiet time and a nice vape. Figured I caused enough of a ruckus, today! But ... (She never could be quiet!) ... Just read a few posts on the P3 thread about the new Kangar sub tank. With the 1 ohm coil, it was compared to a KFL +. (On a P3). Has anyone on the porch used one, yet? Thoughts? Apparently, Kangar fixed the problem with the silicone bits on the build platform ...

PBusardo's mentioned it while reviewing his latest device. Said it vaped good. Might want to watch the first part of the 46 minute review.

Yep - it is annoys me sometimes too. I've been eying various RTAs over the last few months and it's really difficult to tell which ones can be setup w/ single and/or dual coils. It's pain to go googling it and searching ECF to get additional info on 'em.

OK, after realizing that it isn't even possible to place an actual Internet order with "VaporGirl", I'm doubling down on my original statement and saying that as of today, it is not possible for anyone to order US-produced nicotine juice on the internet.

So what went wrong at check-out?

Not sure Bells even got to check out. Really poorly designed Web site.

Correct, Matt! I had no intention of making an actual purchase, but couldn't even place any joose in my shopping cart.
