Hi, I live in the Middle of nowhere (literally) I had never heard of vaping before just the electronic cigs made by Cig companies, In Jan I was in a gas station in my small Town and saw e juice and asked about it. that day I bought my1st bottle and vape pen. I quit Smoking that day ( Jan 3rd) Living 200 miles from any thing I found it hard to find good juice and places that would send to PO Box... I did find one and have visited their store. that is when I found out the Juice I was using was made by Cig companies ... this store makes theirs to order. now the stuff I bought before at the Gas Station tastes like crap to me compared to the fresh made. My question is.. if I buy on line will it taste nasty like the cig company stuff tastes? I am Leary of pre made now
 
My juices taste like magnificent clouds of delightful deliciousness.

I was just like you when I started. I was buying my juice from some shady head shop and thought the same thing- “surely it gets better than this”.

And it does. There is no comparison about how much better your juice will be when ordered from a vendor who uses fresh, pure ingredients and honest practices.

Most of the vendors on this site are wonderful. From Mt Baker to ITC to Ahlusion to most of the inbetween. Please give vaping an honest effort. Don’t go back to smoking those nasty chemical sticks. It will be the smartest move you ever made. :D

The Dekang Chinese juice you can find online is the same as many of the gas station juices. Actually I found my best tobacco flav juice at a gas n go. the others not so much. Few of the gourmet juice outfits seem to make real tasting tobacco flavored juice. Still going to try Foggy bottom tobacco flav juice though it is supposed to be good.
 
Glad to hear it LJGma! I smoked for 20-somthing years and gave it up about 3 1/2 months ago. I can smell a smoker from 30 feet away! lol Thinking back, I don't know how I smoked for so long....and I can't believe I smelled like that! :)

You should take a peek and look through the general e-liquid threads (General E-Liquid Discussion) to get a good idea about which vendors are popular. Compared to the gas station vendors, any of the vendors you find on this site should be better. I started off with Mt. Baker. Their prices are reasonable and it will give you an idea about what is out there.
 
Oh yes...I'll never go back to smoking. And congrats to you for quitting as well. I'm sure you're seeing and feeling the benefits already.

You've found a really great community here. There are many friendly and knowledgeable folks here. If you have any questions about anything, don't hesitate to ask. You won't wait long for your new friends to point you in the right direction. Hang around for a while, you'll learn all there is to know about your newfound hobby and healthier lifestyle.

On a side note- I think you're over the 5 post requirement now :)

I can vouch for ITC Vapes. Great juice at a low price. You don't always find quality juice at a reasonable price these days.

Order from several vendors mentioned here and compare. The final judgement is always up to the individual. Lots of juices that other people like have been so-so to me. You just have to sample them and decide.

When I first started, I didn't taste much because my taste buds were so abused from smoking. But, they healed and I am loving the many flavors.

I buy 98% of my juice on-line. Most mix by the order and they need to "age" to get the ingredients...melded. Along with that is storing in a cool dark place away from the sun. A gas station in the middle of no where really has the opposite problem. No wonder it was awful.

I am surprised about the not shipping to a P.O. Box. I use only a P.O. Box. No one seems to have an issue. My credit card billing address is the same.

Anyway, I have found that cigs were soooo boring compared to vaping.

Happy Vaping!

Gas station juice is all kinds of gnarly. I'm pretty sure you could order juice off the worst site you could find and it would be better. Luckily you can click on "Forum Suppliers" at the top of the page and it has a handy list of some reputable sites and I guarantee whichever you pick from in there will be better than the gas station juice.
