What to do with old flavors ?

[ellejewell]

Hey everyone, I have some tfa flavors that have been opened and used. They've been in my tool box for around 8 months and most of the labels are messed up or stained due to a spill I had.
I no longer DIY so I dont plan on using them, but I dont know what to do with them now. There is quite a bit and I just cant see tossing them.
or should I just throw them away. Figured this would be the best place to ask. They've been in a cool dark place this whole time but I'm just not sure how other DIYers feel about opened bottles and their age.

There’s a forum here which might help you in trading them. I don’t know a lot about how it works but I’m sure you’ll find out quickly...
Pay It Forward - PIF

I'm sure that folks here would put them to good use.

Do I get first dibs?

Looks that way!

Darn!!! The PIF thread seemed promising until I read the rules. You can only trade for other DIY items. I am not DIYing anymore, so that doesnt work I was sort of hoping to trade them for a decent mini rta. but glad to know people wont be put off by the age of them and their labels being messed up. LOL that was my main concern. Will posting them in the trade/sell section be suitable?

lol sure! if I post them in the trade/sell section you can have first dibs still trying to figure out how the whole trade thing works cause there is quite a bit and shipping cost may be an issue for me. I havent weighed them yet.

How many flavors do you have?

You could try to sell them in lots, depending on the bottle sizes, or 50 cents to a dollar per bottle. Add $3 for shipping, you might be able to cover the price for an RTA.

Or even better, just straight trade them all for a decent RTA offer.

I don’t know the rules about these sort of things. Wish I could help but really just don’t know. @classwife might be able to point you in the right direction.

I know it can cost a bit, of course by weight. I sent someone a single coil on here once and the s&h was around $5. The box I mailed it in didn’t help the weight but still, I was surprised. So it can cost a bit but you could probably look into most efficient way ahead of time, unlike me.

Yeah - the Classified Forum is really the only way to sell or trade at ECF. It's against the rules to offer anything outside of there - unless giving them away in the PIF forum.

I would imagine that a large Priority Mail flat rate box would hold a LOT of DIY flavoring, and would cost 19 bucks regardless of the weight. You just have to figure that into your asking price if you sell in the Classified Forum.
