Where are we getting our VG base Currently

[mudmanc4]

Too many fly-by sites hoking their watered down Vegetable Glycerin. I've ordered twice now and both times ended up with pure watery garbage. Quite possibly diluted with PG even water.

At any rate, quality reasonably priced VG is what I'm after.

Suggestions?

VG-PG Specials: Essential Depot

Is where I get mine. 2 gallons and free shipping.

You can also get Essential Depot through Amazon. Nice if you just want to pay with say a liter to see if you like it, and get free shipping if your're a Prime member. I'm still going through a lot of premixed juice I bought, so it will be a while before I need to go to DIY only, so the liter will last me a good long time (same as for PG, also Essential Depot, which will last me even longer with my 70/30 VG mixes).

I bought a gallon along with flavors totaling over $65 and received free shipping.

The world produces a LOT of PG and VG. They are commodities. If there are varying grades with meaningful differences for vaping it would be interesting to hear about them.

I've been getting mine at Bulk Apothecary online. I buy my VG (100% Pure - USP - Kosher Grade) there and my PG. Great quality, super customer service, fast shipping, etc. They're having a sitewide sale for 12% off, too, (Code is : EVERYTHING), but it ends tonight at midnight unfortunately. Wish I'd found your post earlier.

Even without the sale though...very good prices for both by the gallon jugs!

I've used essential and ordered bulk apo. Essential seems to be faster shipping but bulk is cheaper. I will be ordering from bulk from now on.

One more vote for Essential Depot. The only place I buy my PG/VG from. Can't beat the price and free shipping!

I just purchased from My Freedom Smokes. .

+1 for Bulk Apothecary. I vape unflavored as well as flavored and have been perfectly happy. I agree with @JCinFLA that I find their total cost (product + shipping) cheaper than ED.

 

[mudmanc4]

Honestly I don't truly need four or even two gallons of PG sitting around, otherwise awesome deal and literally unbeatable.

+1 for essential Depot

I bought two gallons of VG from essentials depot over a year ago. I've just finished the first and cracked into the second. Stored in cabinet in the original jug it came in. No difference from the old to the new jug. If you DIY, just get the best deal you can on whatever quantity you need to get it in, it lasts for quite some time and seems to not show any signs of potential spoilage.

The only grade you should be using is USP (in the US, or BP/EP in Britain/Europe.) That stands for [United States/British/European] Pharmacopoeia and is what people mean when they refer to "pharmaceutical grade," which is the highest purity grade available. Anything less is unacceptable.

@mudmanc4 - Got another email from Bulk Apothecary last night - their 12% off anything on their site...has been extended until midnight this coming Sunday. Code : EVERYTHING

No E.D for me, Bulk Apothecary all the way .

Any reason why? Just curious. I've used ED, Liquid Barn, Nicotine River (got a free liter) and maybe one other and have not noticed much difference between them.

Personally, for me, it was their b.s. "scare" advertisement last month that said something to the effect of you better buy it now `cause our prices are going up due to product shortage or something. Low and behold the prices didn't go up and I have yet to see them be out of stock. That's just crappy business in my book and I choose NOT to give them any more of my money. Their product seems to be top rate.

Also when I bought my last 4 gallon order I compared ED's Glycube "special" to BA's everyday prices plus shipping and BA saved me about $12 bucks total. ED has good product pricing but they are making it all back in shipping. My opinion only...
