Yeah, they sold out in less than a day. I got a bottle in yesterday in the mail and loaded up my REO Grand today with it. It smells like roasted almonds and coconut but the only flavors I could taste is the bourbon and oak. I am not dissapointed with it but not overly impressed with it yet either. Right now I am using a 0.8 ohm coil so I will wait a while and try it again on a higher ohm coil to see if that changes the flavor profile. Gambit on the other hand is my new ADV.
tried 5 pawns yesterday

I read a few reviews which noted the changes associated with the wattage/voltage. Ive got mine on a .6ohm dual coil right now, and even as the battery drains Im seeing different flavors come out. At a fresh battery, the bourbon is much more noticeable than just before I change batteries, which is somwhere around 3.8v. The coconut was really sweet, and then I put a new battery in, and the sweet coconut reverted to the more savory toasted coconut.
Even though it wouldn't be the ultra high wattage, I wish I had a DNA20 device right now. A 1.5ohm coil and a DNA20 would be easy street to pull out the different flavors.

Once again, procrastination hurts me. I saw Five Pawns had CLR on their site and said, sweet, Ill ask for a couple bottles for Christmas.
Its going to really suck when I run out of this juice.
....Does anyone else do this..
So you have a juice you love. like LOVELOVELOVE. You've got 6 or 7 bottles, life is good. You can vape it however you like, whenever you like. Then, one day you go to your stash box for a fresh bottle, and realize your down to your last one.
What do you do?
If your me, you dont vape it until you re-up. I cant be the only one.
"I love this juice so much I dont even vape it"

I haven't experienced this with juice yet but it has happened with other things. I just go ahead and consume it as I normally would.
If there is going to be a period of time that I'm without it anyway, I want to make sure I seize the chance to enjoy it while I can. You never know what tomorrow might bring.
Having said that, I might save one tank full for awhile but I would end up vaping it eventually too. I guess it's just easier for me to endure being without it if I don't actually have it than it is to resist it if I do.
Exactly.
People are funny. We all have our idiosyncrasies. Some people only drink fine wine and hate beer or vice versa.
When I drink beer, it's either QUAD, Blithoring Idiot or Three Philosophers (2 are cheap and one is a lot higher in price but they are the only 3 beers that I'll drink, if I want a beer. Why? Because I like them.
Scotch is not for me. Never had or wanted to develop a taste for it, cheap or otherwise.
Coffee has to be Militta when I'm brewing at home. I'm sure some people love whatever other brand...but it doesn't matter.
E-liquid. Now that does matter! I buy some and DIY some. I like a few that I've bought, enough so that I've reordered them. Sometimes the reorder is not at all like the first (in a bad way). Sometimes the second order is as good as the first order. Some of my DIY is good, some is "meh." c'est la vie
The price of vendor-made wouldn't bother me if I could find some that really tastes like it's worth $30 or $40 for 10ml -- but, for me, it can't contain PG. A tough requirement to meet, for some vendors, apparently. Sigh.

Some one let me try Bowden's Mate awhile back. I loved it. Saw the prices and said the same thing many here are saying "no way". I bought one bottle and told myself "use it only occasionally". Yeah, right. On the second order, I tried the Absolute Pin (along with the second bottle of Bowden's Mate). I'm still working on the Absolute Pin. It's nice but not my cup of tea. It's like an evening nite cap for me. Just a couple of hits every now and then in the evenings. Generally everyone in the house can tell when I have whipped out the Pin. It smells like Maple Bacon. Doesn't taste that way, but smells like a winter breakfast on a cold Sunday morning.
Now, back to the Bowden's Mate. Sooooooo............on the THIRD order, I grabbed a bottle of Queenslide to go with the Bowden's Mate. It's good, nice and deep orange. But Bowden's Mate is still my favorite.
I ran out of Bowden's Mate so I had to place another order for it. Just one bottle. :-(
On the FIFTH order, I was lucky enough to grab TWO bottles of Castle Long. Hey, why not? So, its expensive. So is anything good. Oh, and a couple of bottle of Bowden's this time.
You can drink Hennesey or you can drink Mad Dog 20/20. Your choice. I'm mean, hey, why would you ever fork over the extra few bucks for something of quality when you can have something as majestic as the cascading waters of a drain pipe for cheap, right?
OK, so I said the same thing as many/most of you - NO WAY its TOO EXPENSIVE. Yet, Bowden's Mate is my main vape now. 75%+\- of the time, that's what's in the tank. I didn't plan it that way for the reason above. But that is what I like.
Yeah, its too expensive.................................................
I do wish they would knock some of the packaging and little scripted marketing literature etc off to bring the cost down just a little.
I need to find something else I like that can be my ADV and go back to the plan of using the Five Pawns occasionally, evenings, nights out, etc.

I just sampled my teeny bottle from the sample pack of Absolute Fin - I find it absolutely amazing! Gives me a great excuse to visit a local B&M I've had my eye on and at least buy something! But I'll have to treat it like good champagne and keep it for special occasions....LOL
If you can restrain yourself and order it one bottle at a time, the free priority shipping will bring the price down to about $22 a bottle, putting it on par with many other popular vendors out there.
I have been absolutely hooked on Grandmaster. Can't get enough of it. It has been my all day vape now for about 6 months! I keep trying new flavors to find something comparable at a lower cost, but so far no luck.
I started out using the 18 mg. nic. strength on my carto tanks, gradually cut down to 12 and recently, after discovering the the world of Kayfun's and particularly the Russian 91% with low ohm micro coils (1.2 ohm) and cotton, I have had to cut down to 6 on the nic. 12 mg. is just too much! And the flavor blows my mind!

Just checked the mail today and Castle Long Reserve was there. Got it for $34 shipped priority. So I filled a carto, drip, drip... Let's try it. Hmmm. Let's top off, drip drip. Not sure that I like it, drip, drip... Wow, this isn't bad. drip, drip, drip. puff, puff, puff.
This flavor, maybe the vanillas is not one I would normally like but it's so balanced. Like if any one flavor was off at all it wouldn't be for me,
12mg, no throat hit, and I don't watch vapor much so don't care. I think a lot of people will like this. I'll buy it again when I can afford it...couple of times a year.
I'm not good at naming flavors but the juice is good.Is it worth it? Well, I ordered 6 flavors once at MBV. To me they were not vapable. To me, that's not a deal.
OK, back to Gorilla Juice. Maybe some CLR in the morning.
Oh, the packaging is very nice and I'm sure that adds a good bit to the price.
