You know that is what is going to happen. And I will be paying postage to mail stuff around the country forever. That's why I have not done this so far. At least I know to not take another big batch of MBV menthols and ices and frosts and weird stuff. I am still going to get bit in the ...., but I will give it a shot. This lady seems to do this full time. She posts swaps almost every day. Maybe I should just bend over now.

You should watch the main PIF USA thread. If there's something that looks good in the current offer, you accept it and then put up your offer of juices (or other stuff) you don't like. It's not a bad way to try new stuff, because shipping is cheap. I really, really miss the old days when there would be 10+ offers a day, it's so dead now. :(

The juices I got from MOV are absolutely delish in the eroll, but not quite strong enough in a clearo, v fate or clearo no matter what I do with the vv. Every once in a while I get a nice full of flavor hit though so it might just be me and a bit of vapers tongue.

Cleaning your atty's, cartos and clearos/tanks makes a huge difference in flavor, even if you are using the same juice in it all the time. I clean my drippers every couple days, only takes a couple minutes to rinse and dry burn it clean. It's like a flavor punch to throat... BAM! ;)

Moral of the story: Vapers Tongue is often dirty atty syndrome.

I have some 50ml bottles of MBV stuff and a lot of other juices that are not for me. I have been watching the swap thread and so far nothing looks good. For some strange reason I have not put up those bottles on swap. I think I am being silly and am afraid no one will want to swap with me and my feelings will get hurt. Now is that stupid or what. I really do want to swap because it would help me out juice buying wise. Only have so much money.

I have to see if I am subscribed to that thread.

Once you get your VW mod and taste your stuff, you'll know which ones are keepers. I'm planning to find 3 or 4 go-to flavors and just keep those in stock. Then I can try a new one here and there for a change of pace. That's my plan anyway. ;)

It's a good plan, it's been mine plan too. Not really working though. Starting to get burnt out on the few flavors I do like, and the new ones I try are almost never keepers. It's depressing really.

Alright, I think I have something to contribute here. I've been at this a long time and even though I was smoking I still vpaed regularly. I was lucky and found some good juice vendors early on and have several flavors that are all day good. First is Vapor Station. They have several tobacco blends with detailed descriptions. The RY4 being my favorite and Tampa being second. I'm not really into tobacco flavors though and really love the grape and watermelon. They used to have a cream soda that was to die for but they discontinued it, sad day. All of the flavors have a tobacco undertone and a distinctive flavor different form any other juice I have tried. They offer a sampler pack. Second, my go to for yummy dessert flavors is Velvet Vapors. They have a huge selection and you can customize vg/pg ratio. They also offer sampler packs and bottles up to 60 ml. My Faves are: eggnog, waffle, and bear claw, in that order. Although any of those could be my ADV. VV also offer a 10% off code periodically which covers shipping, not much, but it helps. I would highly recommend trying both of these vendors if you are still searching for that perfect flavor. this has been my :2c:.

It is more than depressing. I am a tobacco lover. So far it seems like the fruits, bakery, sweets and coffees just don't do it for me. But I need some sweet in the tobacco. Found my adv and have been through about 100ml of it in the past month. There are some days that it is not cutting it either. Like it is losing flavor. I will drip it, then stick it in my Evod. Just loses flavor. So I switch off to another flavor for the day and have a poor vaping day. Sometimes it will take a couple of days for the Gold (adv) to taste right again. I have even tried new attys. Is that called Vaper's Tongue? Or am I just bored with the juice?

hi. Good to see you again. My vape budget is shot til next month. I can't believe how Vital it is to have a juice you can vape all day. If I did not have that, I think I would be smoking still. I have be revisiting my first purchases of juice and if I did not like it then, I still don't like it. I have two of Vapor Station samples steeping, the RY4 and VS4. Should be able to vape them by the weekend. Looking forward to trying them. I am fortunate that PG does not seem to bother me. So I have a little more lattitude in what I can vape. I will have to look at Velvet Vapors and see what they have.

I see you have a big vaping anniversary coming up in the next week. Congratulations. That is a lot of vaping time. I hope to be there one day.

Yeah, could be vapers tongue. Sometimes, brushing your tongue can help, or drinking a lot of water. Palate cleansers like strong coffee or lemon can help also. But I think we all can relate to what you are talking about. Something tastes good for a few drags and then it seems like there is just like "meh" flavor. Gonna have a smoke now...

Yeah too bad I had to revisit the smoking. Never should have drifted away form the forum. I get more support here from strangers than from my own family. Glad someone else is still awake :)

This place is good for that. :)

Nobody in my family understands the vaping. I am using a spinner and either dripping into a 510 atty or using an Evod. They still think I am smoking. They don't get it whether they are smokers or never smoked. So I stay here and in other areas of ECF. It is why I am not smoking. Just hang with us. Since you are still vaping I am sure that you are smoking way less than you used to.

Understood. Trouble is, I would not vape any of those. I will watch and wait til I see something. And watch the swap thread.

After reading about liqua, i just ordered some from FT. I needed a butane torch anyways so that's my excuse and I'm gonna stick to it. :)

Let us know what you get and do a review on it here. I have never used Liqua or ordered from Fasttech. What flavors did you get?

It's too bad no one gets it. I'm usually the one bringing technology to my family, explaining what stuff is, how it works, and why it's good. Most of them are thrilled I've cut back smoking as much as I have using pv's. I just break down what's in it and do the trick where you blow the vapor through the paper towel and show them how the clear water vapor leaves nothing behind after it dries. That usually makes them stop and think.

I wouldn't like any of those either I don't think, but I may pull the trigger just to get it moving.

I ordered bright tobacco, mixed berry, and strawberry. I'm guessing I will use 3-5 drops before I trade them to someone else who might like them. Have to keep chasing the vaping dragon...

Since I have returned to these pages I found the intestinal fortitude to quit again. Its been ten days since my last cigarette. I was only smoking 1 or 2 a day anyway so no big whoop. When first started vaping I quit immediately and for 9 months. Then I fell off the wagon for various reasons and did both. I never smoked as much as before, but more than I would have liked. I would get frustrated with my equipment and it was so much easier to just light one up. My husband smokes, like a train, and there are always cigarettes around. We are divorced but living together again. We have 2 teenage sons and frankly neither of us could make it on our own.
