I'm not into minty stuff either or I'd help her out. You might also want to try the classies and list them as a FT/FS. :D
I talked the girl I work with into buying the 5 bottle deal from Rockstar. I told her about the great prices after I ordered mine. I didn't say a word to her about me hating them or that I thought they tasted like rubbing alcohol. I saw her today and she told me they were HORRIBLE. She then said they tasted to her like they have alcohol in them. I said yeah I thought the same thing but didn't want to influence her opinion before she tried them herself. She said she wasted her money and I feel responsible.

I'll find out what her milligrams and flavors tomorrow and see if anyone wants to buy them or trade her. I think hers are really low nicotine though and several minty type of flavors. (I can't stand mint or I would buy them and try and doctor them up) But she thinks the same as I do about them. If anyone is interested let me know

Just did a little research and came across this: Rockstar uses Flavor West Flavoring. Then I researched the Flavor West Flavorings to find that in some of the flavorings, alcohol is listed as an ingredient. Flavor West Flavoring Please keep in mind that most popular food grade flavorings used in many ejuices include alcohol too. For example, Lorann's Bavarian Creme includes Ethyl Alcohol. Here's the link to Lorann Oils. I know this doesn't help pinpoint the problem some are experiencing, just wanted to share what I've found. :D

I have used both types of flavorings in DIY and never got any results close to the chemical taste and smell that was found here.

I did a little research myself and have found this identical OP has been posted in many forums, including a United Kingdom based one, where the OP admits that he is a "dude helping his friend out with his new site."

I would post the link but I am not sure it is allowed to post links to other forums. Just search Google with Rockstar Vapor and check out UK Vapers forum.

Nice to try and help a friend out I suppose, but I would think that the OP could almost be termed a supplier associate. I thought this forum was suppose to be for customer reviews.

And no, I have nothing personal against this vendor, just wondering what is really going on here.

Edited to add:

IMHO it would have been more appropriate and less disingenuous to post this thread in the Supplier SubForum.

A friend is a friend and hardly unbiased and disinterested. Something along the lines of my friend Jason at Vapor Renu has opened up a new site for a line of Vapor Renu 100 % FlavorWest flavored juices and is running a sale. I like them a lot. Check them out, and continue with the body of the OP.

And once again I have nothing against this vendor. Just to me anyway, not a very honorable way to introduce a new line of product.

Considering the OP hasn't been back since, I pretty much figured that out already. Either way, it's a vendor with cheap juices (for now) and there are plenty of reviews so people can decide for themselves whether they want to gamble $20. I don't think these juices have cyanide in them, they're just cheaply made. I'm guessing VaporRenu, which I haven't tried, must taste the same.

A shame that this wasn't caught. The other sites I found this verbatim OP people caught on pretty quick that it was basically a backhanded attempt at advertising what purports to be a new line of juices by an established vendor. A shame truly.

But to be fair, I bought my juices before this thread started and I would not have looked this info on them up if the continuing rave or perhaps better termed raving praise of this stuff hadn't continually been posted and the constant suggestions that anyone who bought this repugnantly smelling and tasting juice should just eat their loss and give it to some unsuspecting needy vaper here or try and resell it and dupe someone else to recoup their money.

Looks like quite a few people lost $25.00. I know I did. I would not give what I got from them to my worse enemy much less try and sell it.

There is something wrong with many people's juices.. and I agree..there is no cyanide in them, but whatever they used I am guessing to cut this stuff is extremely noxious both tastewise and aroma wise. Only a guess though...pretty sure it is not the flavoring and not the nic base. I have used many brands of flavoring and got nic base from a few vendors and nothing I made resulted even approaching these vile mixture.

And yes the OP admitted it was Vapor Renu that he was doing the favor for on that UK forum. To be fair, I have purchased Vapor Renu in the past and it did not have this rancid chemical taste and aroma.

But for me it did leave a buttery after taste on all 4 flavors I sampled. Not my cup of vape to paraphase, but I read many, many people like Vapor Renu juice and do not have that issue, and while I read a few people have had similar issues with an aftertaste, the majority of posts I have read here have not so it is a subjective thing. Decided they were not for me and moved on. Did trade what I had of the Vapor Renu purchase I made months back with someone who liked them so I wouldn't waste juice on the forum.

If they had been honest and I has known that Vapor Renu was Rockstar I would have not ordered from them because of that aftertaste I had experienced. Now this taste and smell experience from them is on another plane if not another entire planet all together.

Interesting thread and I almost hate to post in it. I'm new to vaping but so far haven't experienced getting my "taste buds back" as others have posted. dang I'm having a lot of trouble finding juices that taste full bodied. Have tried 11 vendors so far, a few with huge fan bases and....not reordering. Long story short, I had ordered from Vapor Renu and found the 3 I ordered bland and boring. Maybe it was my selection. I actually liked Rockstar much better than VR but would probably not have ordered if I knew they were a VR branch. Irony I guess. With that said, RS is still better, imo, than a lot I received - just hope there's nothing that's gonna harm me since I vaped most of it. This just confirms to me that taste is very subjective.

And no, I'm in no way affiliated with anything other than my go-go. :) If the op was scamming, I'm very disappointed. Especially as someone in good faith sent their juices off to be sampled and compared. shameful

I have found 3 juices I would happily vape daily - all from different vendors :blink:, a few I wouldn't mind vaping often and the bulk I can live without. So, my search continues.

Not scamming..it appears just trying to advertise. It is a bad economy, maybe Vapro Renu thought that starting a new website anonymously would drum up business? Wrong decision,at least to me.

Dishonorable, I think sums this up. And I see this fiasco continues on another thread..funny the games people play.

I am glad that you did not get the toxic mix some of us got.

The games people play cost $25.00 a throw.

After this I will try to stick to DIY. You should maybe look into that.

Edited to add:

I really do believe that the issue of what is so absolutely revolting in this mix should be addressed by this Vendor even if Vapor Renu still decides to hide behind the RockStar name. I see it has what is termed here "fan"people start threads about the now hundreds of dollars they have spent in juice from this supposed "new" vendor without a bad one in the bunch... How about answering the questions about the putrid ones?

Also thought this Forum itself would look into this situation since I gave search info and found as other forums did that it was basically and continues to be an advertisement that belongs at the very best in the Suppliers Forum along with all the "revised" threads it has generated. Same cast of characters there minus the missing OP, even having the nerve to state that even though some people "didn't like the juice at least they liked the bottles."

How bizarre..I thought better of this Forum.
