So after a little looking around on the net, I am scratching my head trying to figure out why the wild price swings in 100mg nic juice,

For Example: Vapeworld.biz shows 50/50 100mg 1 gallon for $195.00
Myfreedomsmokes.com is $139.00 for 1 LITER of the same stuff!

Anyone know the reason for this huge difference? Chinese made nic? Insane markup?? Any warnings about where to buy??

thanks

I can say that all nicotine is not the same. Wizard Labs has the best available for the lowest price. 100mg/ml Nicotine Solution

If you don't know who or what you are buying when buying nicotine you are liable to get something very brown and foul smelling/tasting. It can be a crap shoot at best if you are not familiar with the nicotine vendor you're buying from.

Beef comes in a wild array of prices too. What's the lowest priced beef you're willing to eat?

As with most things, raising a cow and butchering it yourself is hugely less expensive than buying prepared and cooked for you at a restaurant. (To keep with the analogy, we are buying beef in bulk and doing the portioning and cooking ourselves, so you want to trust the place you're getting all that beef from.)

Well put, but I want steak now

I use WL also. I make a vg based juice and my coworkers constantly comment on how much throat hit my liquids have. I'm convinced is from quality nicotine vs cheap Chinese crap most places around here use. Other reasons I like WL: decent flavoring options, any equipment I've needed so far is there and free shipping at $65+. Also the shipping has been fast and incredibly packaged. I've not had anything even come close to damaged when I got.

I just placed an order yesterday. Yes!! The packaging has got to be overkill! :laugh: They don't want a thing to go wrong, especially with rules for air shipment the way they are now.

First stuff I bought from one guy was clear on arrival and turned only the slightest bit of pale yellow very gradually over time, and was just a bit on the expensive side. Tasted and seemed to work great.

Second stuff from second guy was cheaper. Pretty damn yellow upon arrival. Seems to have darkened more rapidly and may be harsher. Not terrible, not like that tar stuff some talk about, but either older or of poor quality or both.

So there ya go. I don't need Dom Perignon so I think Wizard will be good enough for me next time I need to re-up.

Still 195 for a gallon and the whole cow thing is still eluding me. ;-/
Sorry... Liquid Nicotine - Wholesale Nicotine | Vapor World


Wizard labs is actually $216 a gallon, so not really much of a difference. Freedom smokes stuff must be laced with gold dust.

Your math is wrong. WL nic comes in a maximum of 500ml bottles. A gallon would be 7.57 x $56.99 = $431.4/gallon

Nude nic is basically the same price at $100/liter (for purchases from 4-20 liters) and they never run out of stock.
