I am literally typing with one hand as my 8 day old baby sits atop my shoulder, so I feel ya! She just stopped crying!

I know, those little buggers... they make 'em smarter nowadays.
thats the way i see it too. i like to DIY some simple flavors, like 1-flavor type of stuff. just mix n shake. but i will never replace juice from my favorite vendor (NLV). i wont even begin to attempt to replicate any of that jucie. not worth my time. i am more than happy to buy that juice. i can DIY my simple citrus vapes that i like but when it comes to complex flavors, i leave that to the professionals.
Kemo,
Ask me why I never orderd Halo Prime 15 after we became friends...well, I am sure you know! haha! K-15 for the win...and cheap, like free-cheap, too. That also demystified some vendors and elevated others. DIY DIYable juice. All else, just buy it already.
I make 830ml of 18mg flavored juice (not the cheap stuff, my all day vapes) for a total cost of $54 delivered.
That equates to 6.5¢ per mil, $1.95 per 30 mil bottle which lasts both my wife and I exactly 7 days, = 28¢ per day for the both of us.

i sure do!
couldnt have said it better myself. DIY Ecto Cooler and Mtn Dew all day. but when it comes to something like GOLD...fuhgetabout it.
If you're mixing them at all the same strength and all the same ratio.
Sure, DIYing, i have a big bottle of pre-diluted nicotine that only needs 5%-10% flavor to be ready for me. But I vape all 50/50. I'm aiming for around 25mg. I'm not even being precise to the decimal point about my nicotine because it's for ME, but I'd certainly want it to be in exactly the advertised nic level if I was making it for someone else.
But you're probably just trolling us some more.
ETA: Also, to be clear, I also disapprove of the DIY superiority complexes. I only started for fear of the FDA's impending idiocy. If not for that I would still be happily ordering juice from reasonably priced vendors. Hell, if it turns out the FDA's proposed legislation turns out to not be as bad as I fear, I may still treat myself with some ECB Dragon juices or fruit smoothie, or a big bottle of gorilla juice as a reward.

I heard it's much cheaper, actually free, to catch your own fish than it is to buy it out of fancy restaurants or even out of a store.
Sometimes I think people that DIY exclusively think they are, somehow, hurting us by letting us know how cheap their endeavors are; but it doesn't hurt one single cent, or mL. Do I understand the thought process behind saving money? Yes! Do I do it with all things? No! Nobody does, so I bet we all can compare notes and make each other look like the other is paying way too much with something, no? Anyone here still using gasoline? hahahahahahahaha

I missed this! Congratz Mr.Mann
Well...sometimes, depending on what's already in the tank. If it's from the Gulf of Mexico, I make a lot.

Thanks!
On topic: DIY is cheaper and we all know that. Aside from knowing that, there isn't much more that can be said.
Wow offer how much it runs me to diy my juice (ymmv) any that is what's thrown around. (I didn't bother reading the thread, just offered the info to the OP)...

No offense meant. If you had read the whole thread you'd have seen how many times "I can make my own juice for x cents!" has been repeated.
That snippet is, well, let me show you how snippets work:
If you had read the tiny thread, you would've seen this goodie:
That snippet sounds like a plus one for the DIY side, correct?
Text taken out of context is the pretext to a lie. But, at least the lie is cheap, no?

If you are selling e-juice, fixing cars, or driving a truck for a living, you may be doing it because you enjoy it but you are also doing it to provide a living for your family. It costs money to live. It is no surprise that there is a 50-300% mark up on products to cover overhead of facilities and supplies, and employee wages and benefits. To think the mark up is unfair is ridiculous. If a vendor is grossly over priced, the market will correct itself... people will buy elsewhere.
How do you avoid these costs? Bargain shop or DIY, period. It's not meant as an insult. Discuss the best places to shop or DIY, to complain about the prices does nothing but create wasted noise or in some cases, it informs others of overpriced vendors.
