Random DIY mixing and More

Hopefully she will get you a tracking number right quick. Every time I've bought something via ECF's classies the seller has given me a tracking number within minutes of receiving payment. A few even go the extra mile and post a photo of the package with label.

When I give my tracking numbers I always leave two numbers off and tell the person to figure out which numbers they are. It becomes a game of sorts that I enjoy.

I’ve bought from the Classy’s a couple times. No problems but never bought from a noob,

I cleaned the Z-biip tank and gave it a new coil plus a remix of a Chocolate IC Cake. vaping great again. I really need to do some more remixes of recipes I like.

I always struggled with fruit flavors, just can't taste them. I have one mix, with mango, papaya and peach. It tastes of generic fruit and it's OK. My regulars are menthol, marzipan, ginger, coffee, caramel and a few others.

I kept picking up bottles of different fruits but nothing really worked. I have gooseberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and several others sitting around unused. Recommended % went from tiny to quite high and I tried them all. Did some searching the other day looking for percentage for something and saw several comments about fruit needing some kind of sweet additive. I added 1% of sweetener to an old bottle of blackcurrant and 1% marshmallow to my regular fruit mix. The marshmallow really helped the fruit. Not sure about the sweetener, the bottle of blackcurrant was 8% which is probably way too high for an FE flavor but it was a hail mary attempt to make it work. Might try it with lower % and some marshmallow.

I kind of gave up on it. I know there are people here who have blind spots for some flavors.

Has anyone here had a problem with fruit and figured out a solution?

I have some I can't vape but otherwise no problems with fruit. If marshmallow can help you taste them better than you should go with that.

My second Sourcemore order was detoured to Kansas City, but that's okay. It's still better than Singapore.

My little order spree was fun after not buying anything for a year.

Maybe they are delivering it to me.

I'm trying to get a BCF reply. Every time I want to order something-it's OOS and doesn't even show up to place email when they obtain stock. This is really gonna suck if they stop selling one of my favorite flavors.

They usually answer quickly.

What is it you are trying to order from BCF?

Ouch! Have you sent her a PM yet? I'm sure you probably have. Hopefully she will get you a tracking number right quick. Every time I've bought something via ECF's classies the seller has given me a tracking number within minutes of receiving payment. A few even go the extra mile and post a photo of the package with label.

In the classifieds at VU they see noobs who are ripoff artists from time-to-time.

On Wednesday one was publicly called out by several members and one of the mods. That same day the mod terminated 7 accounts. Each of those had IP addresses originating from Nigeria. That's one of the worlds well known scammer havens.

It would not surprise me at all if one or more of those characters tries doing the same here (might have already).

My rule of thumb is never buy anything from a new user. I will only buy from well known and trusted users (here, VU and the reddit classies).

Damn, sorry to hear that. Is it that Amber girl? I know I have been suspicious of her. Another member who joined in like 2012 said he vouches for her.

I’ve bought from the Classy’s a couple times. No problems but never bought from a noob,

Yeah, it was Amber. It appears that I'm not going to get my mods, but she just sent me a refund. Didn't contact me as to why, but at least I got my money back. Her name is Amber Butler and I would recommend not dealing with her.

Flavorah Turkish. I'm not completely out just yet but always pick up when I'm placing a order.

Well you did get your money back.

Those two are from VU. If it is who I am thinking she is over here to sell all the stuff she got for free.

Of course I could be wrong but it is a red flag for sure.

I don't have any problems tasting fruits. Boosting a fruit with another flavor will help. The use of creams and vanillas can help.

Using a little FA Gin will enhance and make light fruit flavors bright and summery and will add sparkle to darker fruits and berries. It enhances all citrus flavors. Anything from a couple drops to 0.75% will do the trick (depending on what fruit is used) without adding any noticeable alcohol flavor to a mix.

I use a tiny amount of lemon to boost the flavor of oranges and pineapples.

A little raspberry will improve the flavor of strawberries (and vice-versa).

Watermelons can also be helped by a little strawberry (or raspberry).

In each of those examples I'm also using multiples of a fruit flavor in a mix to help boost the overall profile. As in, using a couple oranges, or strawberries, or watermelons etc. Same with other fruits. Raspberries, pineapples, mangoes, peaches etc. Same thing when I make my caramel and butterscotch juices.

For me, using multiples of the same kinds of flavors kicks up the profile I'm after. Multiples help to create a more convincing and unified mix.

Glad she gave you the money back.

I wonder if the item is still for sale..

I got the two small packages of upland silver cotton I ordered a few days ago when SMT linked it on the shiny thread. I’ll have to build a tank to try it.

What’s everyone up to?
