@Krisma, is this what you are referencing above:
One Shot Concentrates - Flavor Concentrates - <p class="shopbydepartment"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Shop by</span><span style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold;">Department</span></p>

And what is this (is this a flavor or a concentrate of a mix?), any idea?
SC-Dunhill Super Concentrated Flavor

I also noticed that EE also has a recipe kit option, which has everything you need to make a recipe yourself:
Recipe Kits

I dont know that particular site but for example

This is Decadent vapours. they sell menthol eucalyptus eliquid in whatever mix you like then then have the concentrate
premix Mentholyptus Premixed E-liquid - Decadent Vapours
concentrate where you add your own PG/VG & nic Mentholyptus Flavour Concentrate - Decadent Vapours

I just looked at the dunhill that is a concentrate that you would then need to blend an mix into your recipe. I am talking about well developed recipes that you can try the entire recipe not just the single flavour and then if you like the actual eliquid you can buy the concentrate.

Just on this I use peppermint, spearmint in my other recipes. If I buy straight peppermint flavour I would still have to sweeten, blend and balance so instead I buy Decadent vapours peppermint concentrate which has already been tweaked and use that in my recipes.

Yep, small tats can't hold detail and will fade/run within just a few years. Better to go large, especially if you have any amount of detail.
Ain't that the truth. My whole arm sleeve has a ton of tiny hieroglyphics that were done too small and are mush 17 years later. Live and learn.

Subwatting like I've never done before. Been having some difficulties finding a good place for the doggy to be. And it's weird because a coil reading 1.3 on the ohm meter and pico reads at 1.6 on the Jac. At any rate, took it down to a measly 8w and it seems to be doing much better there. Still not the vape I'm looking for but it will hold until after work tonight when I can build it again, slightly lower resistance so I can get closer to 12-15w.

I refer to those as full recipe concentrates and thats how I make a lot of my juice. In the U.K. Eco-vape.uk sell them too. Their Black Friday sales cut the prices in half so I stock up for the year.

I should do more diy. It's a little overwhelming for me. I need to sit down and find some recipes I want to try and then buy flavoring for that. I know it's very easy but to get started is expensive ish. And overwhelming g just trying to find good recipes

I actually disagree. I don't think it is as easy as people think. Making single flavour recipes that stand the test of time is tricky. It takes time, patience and accurate recording to fully develop a recipe from scratch. I spent over a year playing with mints trying to find the one. I would get something vapeable that would be revolting or meh a couple of weeks later. If you get lucky and find a recipe you like then sure but remember someone put in the time and effort to develop it for their tastebuds.

In all that time of trying a gazillion combos of different concentrate brands of say peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, horehound, licorice, anise etc I never found it. I stumbled across a recipe by someone else that had the same ingredients but a different % of each and it was very good. Starting with that I tweaked it myself and now had a flavour that is the same months later and vapes exactly the same each time.

Thats why I suggest this as an option. You can taste the eliquid first and work out if you like it. Not just spend money on single flavour concentrates trying to figure it out yourself

I've been using SC tobacco concentrates for a few years now.
If you like the flavours you will find that they are really easy to mix. They are ready to vape almost straight after mixing and they are very strong, only needing 2-3% flavouring.

I've been lucky to find a few recipes that I really like, I've found recipes that are ok at first and meh when I get back to them later and I've made plenty to go right down the drain. After losing 120ml of something I loved at first and then despised I always start with 10ml testers until I'm really sure I like something. There's a few profiles I want that I haven't found recipes for yet so I'm going to have to start developing them myself. I've also had some luck combining recipes or adding flavor to a recipe, or changing the fruit used, etc. It's been a journey, and I find it enjoyable in the same way I enjoy cooking. I can see how it wouldn't be for everyone so I'm thankful that premade juice is an option for those that want it, at least for now. I feel very sorry for those in San Francisco that will now be prohibited from buying liquids with flavors. *SAVE THE CHILDREN!* o_O

EE as noted above also carries 12 one shot blends by DIY or DIE they are pretty good and most of those specific flavors consist of up to 10 flavors. Real bargin

I have checked out a site called nicvape.com a few times. I have never bought anything from them but I've eyeballed their stock. They have a lot of stuff. They do have these flavor bottles that you can add to your own PG/VG but the bottles were 9 ml to make 30 ml of juice, and that seemed like lot of flavoring to me.

@ToolmanTexas - Another great place that carries already blended concentrates is One Stop DIY Shop. In addition to carrying many name brand single flavorings (by TFAm CAP, FA, etc.), they also have their own proprietary One Stop Flavors and One Stop Blends. You just mix usually about 8-10% (or higher to suit your own tastes) of a single 1 of them...with your own PG, VG, and nic base. IMO, and many on here, they're wonderful!

My personal favorites are their Baked Cinnamon Roll, Lucky Shot, Lotta Latte, and Pink Lemonade. I also like the Tennessee Whiskey, Blue Raspberry Slush, Olde Tyme Rootbeer, and Strawberry Milk. Have already bought the Licorice Torpedoes and Wild Cherrylicious, but haven't tried them yet.

An ADV for me, is made with equal parts of their Lucky Shot + Lotta Latte. I only use 6% of each one and it's wonderful.
