between here and there
I did an experiment on a ready made 30ml bottle of my favorite liquid. I placed the bottle in the freezer (without opening, fresh from the mail) that was December 2014. I brought it out sometime around Christmas 2015. It looked exactly like a fresh bottle. I treated it like I would a fresh bottle. Took the cap off and let it breathe for a day. Capped it back up and let it age, like I do all my liquids as I get ready for them to be tapped into.

The aging process did not start until after I took that cap off. It tasted like all the other liquids that I did not freeze.

I call that a successful experiment :)

I am going to be placing a 100ml bottle in my freezer from every order.

Did I mention that this is a liquid that I vape every day, all day? Yeah, I just use one flavor. Have for a few years now. I know what it is supposed to taste like. There was no difference in flavor :thumbs:
Was it in plastic or glass? Do you mind mentioning what flavor as I too have some DIY one flavor ejuices that I enjoy.
Thanks

Just the bottle it came in. Plastic. It is a NET that I get from a regular vendor. I haven't stepped into the DIY arena.



Yet.

If I do, it will be unflavored. I tried a sample and I actually like it.

I don't know what flavor she Vapes.

I keep my frozen flavors snd nic in #1 or #2 plastic bottles. They can stand the cold a LOT better than other plastics.

I don't freeze anything in glass bottles.

I have had stuff frozen in #1 and #2 plastic bottles and tge bottles are as structually as sound today as when i put them in the freezer

problem is technology freezes in 90 days on 8/8/16, no new vape related anything after that is allowed into the market unless it passes FDA approval first so unless new technology happens in the next 90 days it is what it is now, period. There are also the states to consider... now that the FDA has deemed everything vape related a tobacco product they are going to move quickly to regulate and tax it as such which could include bans on internet sales and worse as some states have already done, and, there is nothing preventing the FDA from expanding regulations/restrictions in the next two years if they feel it is necessary... plus, we are already seeing some vendors price hiking..... I mean people can wait if they want to before stocking up but I think the timeline is much shorter than we think.
I call BS. If Trump is elected.. Maybe the cost of trade will go up after a few years of legislation. If he isn't the FDA will have to deal with NAFTA. Either way.. We have at least 5 or 7 years of Fasttech and Alibaba bliss.

What does NAFTA have to do with the importation of banned for sale goods?

No need to call BS,"I disagree" would adequately convey your point. ;)

I am interested in why you think NAFTA has anything at all to do with this?

If anyone thinks that either party will restrict cheap imports they have not been paying attention to what both parties have been doing for a couple of decades.

Of course vaping equipment seems to be an exception to this rule.

I call NOT BS. :D

But regardless NAFTA is North American Free Trade Agreement, not Nice Asians Free Trade Agreement.

Unless you vape at a very high level of nic and never plan on reducing it or if you vape a high volume of eliquid a week and again never plan on reducing it - buying nic for an extended time frame is actually quite simple. 1 liter of 100mg nic will last a long time for tootle puffers...
Nic not so high, 1-3mg/ml
Volume.......20ml/day - plus Wife & Daughters supplies:shock:

China pays nothing to export goods to the US. Thus companies such as Fasttech or Apple pay nothing to export the goods manufactured there.

Some US politicians want to charge tarrifs for any goods shipped into the US.

Now since we don't have a country full of workers dying to get their manufacturing jobs back for $1.15/week.. China will continue to be our primary source of e-cig supplies. With or without the FDA's permission.
