I guess if you use plain PG it would be. I don't. I use 50/50 or 30/70 at about 18%, and when I add the RY4 I get flavor.
That is presumptious of you. They make many other flavors, source their ingredients carefully and have 100% VG which is a major plus for many vapors. Personally, and of course many will disagree, my own DIY is better than their Bobas as I can tweak it my way. YMMV
You forget their Gorilla juice which is wildly popular as well.
They dont' make juice beforehand becuase of the customization that most places let you do, Nic, VG/PGmix, flavor mix, size etc.
Although I am surprised that most don't have big bottles of some of their most popular flavors in the 3-4 standard mixes..
I think the big issue is shelf space / contamination concerns.. Lets say I make 100 bottles of something.. now i need a cool dark dry place to store the stuff that makes it AND the 100 bottles in a safe manner.
Then there's the risk of flavor change.. If I don't have my 100 bottles made and I send you a fresh bottle.. now the flavor's different, and either you need to let it steep yourself when you weren't expecting to, etc. Also different customers may like stuff steeped different lengths of time.
If you plan ahead you'll be all good. I know how much juice will last me a week or 2, so when I get to that point I order up another batch of stuff. I currently have an unopened bag in my steeping spot while I vape thorugh the rest of my ecto.

I'd much rather have my juice fresh. Pre-steeped could translate to just old juice.
Well I usually don't have this problem ..I live on an island in Europe " Malta" and by the time it gets here usually they are steeped all ready ...but I had found a few they where not and didn't manage to wait .. I vaped the sh---out of them 
... But ur right they should do that

Another solution is go to a local vape store if one is available. I took a ride today 1 hour each way, but you know what I got? Juice that was 3 weeks old, steeping time is about 2 to 3 weeks... my work was done.
Oh and since it was "Old juice" I got it for half price... and didn't have to pay shipping.

When I use to buy juice, I never steeped it. I would just use it. Over time I barley noticed a flavor change. The major changes would happen after about a month for me. Even then, 90% of the flavors I bought only became better anyways so it was never a big deal.
As for making it... Perhaps not "labor intensive" but absolutely tedious. Certain people would need different VG,PG, Nicotine options, some customers ask for "extra grape flavor" or "extra menthol" and so on. When you're actually a vendor it's beyond imperative to make sure each and every flavor component iscorrect. That can be a pain. It's best made to taste.

Maybe you can contact them and tell them you need a few that are already steeped and find out what they have?
