To tell the truth, I am more concerned with our budget than I am with getting "premium" eliquid. My daughter and I do, however, enjoy eliquid from Strife, which is very much "premium" priced. Our first - and so far only - venture into the world of "premium" eliquid. It is also a just once in a while treat for us.
Our main eliquid budget goes between Mt. Baker Vapor, VaporBomb, The Vapor Room, Killer Juice, Seattle Vapors, ITC Vapes, Vape Wild, and The Broke Smoker. All have a good variety of flavors, reasonable prices and shipping charges, good customer service, and good turnaround time on orders.
I am retired and on Social Security. The vape budget for my daughter and me comes out of my income after my share of expenses (we share housing and expenses), so, yeah, I am very careful where I spend my money. We enjoy eliquids from the above vendors, and do not feel like we are depriving ourselves in any way, shape or form by ordering from vendors who are less expensive. The whole point of vaping, for us, is to keep away from cigarettes (we quit smoking around 9 years ago, and started vaping around 3 years ago, when stress and cravings were making smoking seem more and more attractive). We are still, quite proudly, ex-smokers
