I just need to get this out of my system because I am so unhappy about this. I wanted to give some of the Chinese juices a try from fasttech just because they were significantly cheaper than buying premade or even mixing it myself. My previous experience with Chinese juices was not good, and generally thought they tasted like ...... I mean I figured that I would give it a shot again. So I got the 50ml "Ehealth" whiskey flavor. I found I actually really really liked it. Enjoyed it even. Started running low on what I bought, so I ordered 3 1ooml bottles. Same manufacturer, same flavor, some nicotine level (medium). So I got it today. Totally different flavor. Took a picture of the old bottle with the new. The 60ml bottle still has some juice in it, and you can see it is a different color. The new stuff I have is darker, and tastes generally like ...... I put some in my atomizer to try (thinking maybe the color is different, but maybe the flavor???). Anyways, horrible. I dumped it out of my tank immediately. I tried putting in another juice. The lingering horrible taste and smell remained. I then had to pull out the cotton and dry burn to get the funk out of my tank. Horrible. So now I'm stuck with 3 bottles of nasty juice that I have no possible use for.

I am just having problems dealing with the Chinese way of doing things. Like let's just randomly change flavors on juices and label it whatever we want to call it. Sure, it's not a problem that our customers will never order from us again. It's the fact we just made a sale that's important, not any potential future sales. And one customer won't cause us any problems by telling others about what we did.

I buy supplies from China, such as bottles, some clones, and a few other things but I'd never consider buying eliquid there. There are some who do and have good results but others don't. I decided I won't bother trying. I buy my juices all made in the USA, plus the bulk of my juices I make myself.

If you want to save money on eliquid consider DIY. The is a great forum on this site with many members posting their juice recipes and asking for help. You can also search for recipes online. There are lots of clone recipes as well.

Given the history of Chinese manufacture's and tainted food (both human & pet) I would not vape any of their eliquid.

Hi sorry about your bad experience. You really should consider making your own juice. This way you can make it exactly the way you like it. You won't regret doing it yourself! You will save money and get what you want. It's a lot of fun. Also when you get a craving, you just whip up what ever your craving. No waiting for the mail to arrive. I'm so glad I started making my own and I'd never go back.

It's not a total loss. Even though you can't vape it, it makes for a good cheap pesticide.

Ya... But if you Try to Kill Ants with it, and it Doesn't Kill them all, then the survivors get Hooked on it. And come Raiding into your House looking for More when they Start to Jones.

So sorry you had this problem. I know it is aggravating. I personally have never read anything good about the juices in China so I have never tried it but I can see where the prices would tempt anyone. Live and learn I guess. Good luck to you and I hope you find some juices that make your taste buds dance. :laugh:

Damn, is that why I have all these ants now? They're jonesing for nicotine?!? :facepalm: At least it's just singletons so far, not the marching army. If they ever arrive, it's time for BLACK FLAG! Guess it's a good thing I don't go in for all that sweet stuff for my ejuice.
