Clumsy, You and Leanne are both trading/giving your TV stuff. You guys must not be in the majority here. :)

Yea, there's been a little talk about whether or not these have been 'watered' down, or not properly handled. I'm feeling badly that I offered them on the PIF now... but at least peeps can get an idea of what they taste like... I know I won't be doing that particular coop again. :p

oh, also!!!!

I order from V4L pretty regularly, and now I have 3 samples of cartomizers from them. anyone willing to trade for an adapter to my 510? I can't use thier cartomizers, but I would like to try.... I'll trade just about anything for one of them.... soo desperate!!

What kind of 510 adapter do you need? I might have an extra.

I am running out of cookie juices I'm in desperate need of peanut butter cookies and snickerdoodle. Vaporbomb is still out of these two flavors if anyone has any of these to trade let me know. I have 30ml of VB french vanilla, 30ml of cherry cola FS, 30ml butterscotch/ almond FS, and some other juices I'm willing to trade.

I've got a small sampling of a butterscotch cookie (made by a friend) it's DELISHIOUS! Want it?

I'm in need of cookie juices! I find I only like baked good juices and backwoods brew tobacco juices. I bought all these other juices but only seem to vape cookie juices and BB juices. I put these up in classified but nothing yet. Here's a list of juices I have if you want trade for any cookie type juices you have lets do it. If you have backwood's brew juice you wanna trade for I'll give you 3ml to 1ml for those. PM me if interested :)

Also have a few BW flavors. What do you like? PM incoming.

-TW Herculian nic juice 36mg PG 5ml - what is this?

-VB Blueberry cinnamon crumble (40VG/60PG) 5ml
l[/S]

Interested in the BB crumble!

I got 4 Boge cartomizers (silver threads) that fit 510. New blanks still in their wrappers.
Looking to trade for some carts or some juice (would really like to try some apple or vanilla), prefer low mg's as I'm trying to drop my nic. Or whatever else.

I can make you some yummy vanilla, if you don't mind DIY. Send me PM if you are interested.

I have 15 brand new, still in the plastic, 510 carts (empty) that I'd like to trade.

Things I want:
KR808 cartos, 510 Cartos, 510 or 901 charger, capella choc/fudge/brownie flavors, Mrs T's choc/fudge/brownie flavors of juice, TV coconut cream pie juice, or make an offer.

Karr


I have 808's. PM incoming.

I'm having a hard time finding ones from that coop I like too. All the ones with sweetener added taste exactly the same to me. And some of the combos are just nasty. I've actually dumped a couple out just to use the empty bottle because I wouldn't feel right even PIF them :( I can't taste tobacco OR honey in my tobacco/apple/honey.. but it does taste pretty good mixed with about 5 parts Flue Cured to 1 part of the tob/apple/honey mix..

Where is this "talk" going on?

I ordered a few 48mg bottles of AC during the sale week, and not only does it not smell nearly as strong, but I can clearly see through this juice.

While previous bottles could be described as a light brown, these are barely tan- about the color of DK RY4...

Caveman and Mixit: the ones I got were from a different coop. Not sure of the number (had Tastyfinger, AC, Key Lime). They were not what I'd normally expect of TV's juices. The talk was not public. I just had to say something, because I put all mine on the PIF board, before realizing they may not be up to par. I thought they were just not my thing. (Feeling very guilty/badly about that.) I do not know if it was the coop or the manufactured process. :confused:

Jynx: I've seen used attys offered before. Sometimes when someone is down to there last atty, it would be very much appreciated. As long as it's specified, there is no problem.

I was in the 3rd co-op and am not super familiar with a lot of TV's flavors. I had only tried 6 before that. What was different about the one's in the co-op to you? Were they just weaker? I'll have to pull out one of the flavors that I got in the co-op that I already had to do a comparison. I just signed up for the next co-op hoping that wasn't a bad idea.

Ok I wasn't gonna post anything because I wasn't sure if I had participated in the same co-op (have a few pm's out to get the scoop) but I participated in the Tasty Vapor thread Co-op #3...is this what yall are talking about?

I was surprised that I did not like most of them and I threw the Key Lime Pie right down the sink as soon as I got it because there was stringing brown goo running throughout the juice, it wouldn't even come out of the dropper bottle. I just thought maybe the ingredients used to flavor Key Lime were more susceptible to heat during the mailing process or something like that. (there were a few that I really liked tho:confused:) I dont want to be trading or PIFing bad juice, and if this is the same co-op yall are talking about has anyone said anything to the unnamed person who ran this co-op? Or to Geoff at Tasty Vapor? Because I Will!:)
 
Bob (hubs) lol... tried to contact Geoff, and he said he has nothing to do w/ co ops, or something to the fact.. and signed off! i have not said anything to the person running the Co op, well cuz i am not one to ruffle feathers. and wasnt sure if it was just me. some of the flavors i got were good. but all had a taste of the AC to it, or weak in flavor and color when compared to other TV flavors i have. so i dunno what to make of it! just my 2 cents.

Ok, weird. I had some that I couldn't for the life of me squeeze out of the dropper. Just wouldn't work. I thought it might be the bottle, but now I'm not so sure.

I've only tasted a few of them so far, and they tasted good to me, but I don't have anything to compare the flavors I tried with. I'll have to do a side by side comparison with the pralines and cream which I have a bottle of that came from TV.

That's why I don't get involved in liquid co-ops. You really don't know who to go to if something is wrong.

I'm really glad now that I didn't jump in on the TV co-op, and I won't ever be in on one I don't run myself (I'm just TOO .... retentive about sterility and cleanliness when it comes to juices). It sounds to me (from what bit of info I've heard) that either the juices were "cut", or proper sterilization procedures weren't used when dividing into smaller bottles.

I would highly doubt the juices themselves (original, when received) are the culprits, but the way Geoff reacted to the situation (I've heard about his reaction twice now, so it can't be BS) has me rethinking my purchasing with him in the future....TV juices ain't that darn good.....

If the person processing the co-op doesn't carefully rinse the syringe or the funnel you will most certainly get cross flavor contamination. When I mix I keep a jug of distilled water next to me and rinse and clean everything. If it is a strong flavor, like TV AC, I have one syringe that is just for that.

From what I've seen, Geoff doesn't have the best bedside manner. Because of this I seldom order from him because his rudeness would not mix well with my .....iness.

Gosh darn it

Okay, I know that vaporingqueen has nothing but good intentions but honestly I have tried a plain doubler. It tastes NOTHING like the actual juice. And I've also tried a doubler with nic added. It tastes NOTHING like the actual juice. It will always taste 'watered down' no matter how high of a concentrate you use and I think they even make the doublers a little different.

Until they start making "super flavor" doublers along with the regular ones and charge the same... that 0nic TV Co-Op will NEVER be a good idea.

Just my 2 cents. That's why I wanted to run a co-op for getting several flavors WITH nic.
