So... Does everyone get the same bundle or do they just choose for you at random?

I wish there were more transparency about what exactly they were sending.. I like surprises too, but I might get a little peeved if I someone else on the same program gets a way better package than me, lol.

All in all I think its a fantastic concept and if this would've been around when I first started vaping I would've been all over it. What a great way to discover new things!
The gold box subscription gets everything! I am really happy with it. I think eventually we will get the same things, for instance if I don't get one flavor this month, I might get it the next. I know some got golden drops strawberry, and I got so on the beach peach. So, next month they may send me the strawberry to try? We shall see. All in all, the gold box was definitely a great surprise today! I would highly recommend.

FYI - just got a PM from Zamplebox - due to popular demand, they are going to standardize at 6 mg. until they can do full customization of nic levels. Still waiting to hear back what the nic is on the Golden Drops . . .

Ok, I'm definitely going to stick out the subscription now. Thanks for sharing this info!

We learned from ZampleBox that the Golden Drops flavors are 6mg. I was in a similar boat with the Hawk Sauce, my bottle is almost empty. :)

Ahh that's good to know.
Yeah I been babying my Hawk Sauce for a little while tryin to make it last. I'm not "allowed" to buy anymore juices/mods etc.. until next month because I have my PlayStation 4 and a buncha games coming next week. XD

So far that 503 Sarsaparilla is on my buy list. Love the drink, never even thought about it as an ejuice until I got this. Nom nom nom... Free bottle of blackbird of equal size on order will be a nice bonus too.

BTW, you guys - the MBV is a 15 ml bottle - that's their standard size bottle. The one I got was 6 mg, I wonder why they had some at 0? A lot of people on fb are complaining about the idea of them standardizing at 6. I don't get that - I mean, if its too low, vape more, but if it's too high, we can get sick real quick. I think they should have a 6 mg. box and a 18+ box. That way both camps are satisfied.

I think a 6 box and an 18+ box is a wonderful idea. I'd be much less inclined to buy knowing I will only get 6's since I currently buy all of my liquids at 24. Its hard for me to imagine vaping much more than I do now haha, but I am only on day 4 without analogs so I'm new to strictly vaping, but not vaping in general. I'm sure I'll slow down over time. I certainly don't want to see anyone get sick from high nic levels and I'd be happy just getting to try new liquids and ordering ones I like in a higher nic level.


Question time. Did there seem to be a standard in PG/VG ratios that you guys have seen? I'm in the unlucky boat of being PG sensitive, so I prefer 20/80 but can do up to 50/50 if I absolutely have to. My boyfriend prefers higher PG so this could still work for him if the boxes seem to be higher in PG, I'm just wondering if there is a chance we would both get something out of a box.

There are a lot of 0mg vapers, especially here on the west coast. 6mg is too low for some people not enough throat hit or maybe they don't want to chain vape to get a buzz. 6mg is my preferred nic level, if 6 isn't available then anything between 3 and 6. 0-3 is alright but I don't get enough of a throat it for it to be very satisfying. I pretty much vape exclusively on RDAs and can't imagine vaping anything higher than a 6mg liquid. It'd be like inhaling glass...

I think they should set up a nic range for the boxes, 0-6, 6-12, 12-18, 18-24. I think this would be able to satisfy most people while keeping the mass produced handful of juice bottles in each box approach that lets them keep the subscriptions cheap.

SNT - in my box, the PG/VG ratios were allover the place. Some were high PG (MBV), some 50/50, and some were on the higher VG (can't remember off hand.)

Something tells me that right now, this fledgling company is at the mercy of whatever the vendor is willing to sell them on the cheap, which is why we are getting such a variance in mixtures and nic. Zamplebox commented on their FB that the goal is for people to just TRY the flavors in order to get them to buy from the vendors at their preferred nic and ratio. Problem is that some of us cannot "just try" a high nic (or high PG for that matter). Can you imagine going to a juice bar that only had 18 nic to sample?! That's why they usually have 0-6 at the juice bars.

I think a 6 box and an 18+ box is a wonderful idea. I'd be much less inclined to buy knowing I will only get 6's since I currently buy all of my liquids at 24.

Thanks for your reply. I'm fine with it being all over the place! Just like you don't want to get sick off of nic level, I don't want to get sick off of PG haha! But a mix pleases my whole household.

That's what I was saying, I'd be happy just getting to try liquids and then ordering them in my preferred variations from the vendors. I can see where people tight on money want it all to match their tastes and try to make it their main source of juice each month, but I wouldn't expect that right away from something so new.

You are absolutely right on the TRY aspect though. Samples are better sent in lower nic levels, and I didn't think of that. I still do love your idea of picking a box based on high or low nicotine though.

I would love to get the box at 0-6mg personally.

I'm OK how things are now because it's only been 3 months (and a few days) since I had my last CIG so while I am gradually weening down on my nic lvl (currently around 10-12) I've still got bottles of 18s and 24s lying around that I still vape from time to time and/or let others who are wanting to try ecigs to get off cigs to use.

I'd vote for the 12-18mg group, and would love at least a preferred flavor profile (I have no interest whatsoever in tobacco juices). If they added a vg/pg preference as well, I'd totally be in. You'd think the vendors would want this as well. Since vendors are obviously in it to get new customers, doesn't seem like they'd want the samples tossed out or PIFed immediately. Just sayin'
