Never ordered form here but similar prices and two warehouses
Specialty Bottle - Amber Boston Round Glass Bottles
Specialty Bottle - Amber Boston Round Glass Bottles
I live near Chicago and got a $5 shipping estimate for the same sized order.
When I was checking out, the actual shipping charge was $9.Only 4 bucks more, but a considerable % increase.
I decided to call them and I'm glad I did. I talked to Bri and she could not have been nicer. Bri told me the reason it jumped so much was because I selected Residential Delivery at checkout. (UPS Charges more for that...I guess)
I went back to my computer and did NOT select Residential Delivery, put in a commercial address and the shipping fee dropped back to $5.
I'm not sure if this will work if using PayPal.
They ship from around the St. Louis area and the bottles I selected were delivered to a convenient commercial address (for me) the very next day.
I'll be back!

Glad I read that. I was about to place my order. I'll have to run the numbers against some other places. But maybe not that big of a deal. I'm only looking at 1 order now then maybe another sometime way in the future.
But I like to run them numbers!
Even with shipping, POD seems to still have better prices. Let us know after you run the numbers.
Well, I can tell you this: I created an account with Packaging Options Direct so I could set up a wishlist that wouldn't go away and they shot an email back with a 10% off discount! So gotta like that.
Packaging Options Direct : I ordered 12 15mL bottles and 12 30mL bottles, took over a week to get here and only got the 30mL bottles. Also i can say that the glass is not high quality.. the glass density is not uniform at all. Very cheap looking.
That surprises me. So many of us have had such good luck with them. I encourage you to send an email to
brianne.livas@packagingoptionsdirect.com or give her a call at 1-855-754-3728.
I did work up the numbers but a few days ago I decided to go with more plastic bottles and only a few glass bottles for freezer-storing nic only.
I ordered a bunch of plastic bottles from US Plastic Corp. in Lima, Ohio, which is close to me in Detroit. I received my order 3 days later by UPS.
What I liked about US Plastic was their bottles were inexpensive, I wasn't limited to ordering a dozen or more at a time, I was able to get tapered caps, and the caps were in standard sizes like 24-400, 28-400. It took some looking through their site but they had just what I had been trying to find on ebay and elsewhere but couldn't, in the low quantities I needed (4 of this, 6 of that). So, I'm quite happy with what I received. I also got a bunch of 15ml bottles with drip tips and caps for cheaper than the pack I got from mount baker Vapor awhile back. They were the same kind too.
I still have to order amber glass bottles for storing my nic.
