T juice charge £ 5.95 for 10mls .....so £8 for 15 mls is still cheaper ...

I think t-juice is too expensive as well.

Thankfully my local b&m stock it cheaper than t-juice.

Karma they're charging £3 first class ...which is comparable to a lot of the vendors .....I bought 3 x 15 mls ...it still only cost me £3 p&p ...

Yep, that's the cost of postage, see my post above ^^^

Forgot to mention, prices does not bother me as i will never be buying as i mic my own and will never buy pre-made again as there is way to much cost risk involved if it tastes nice, plus i hate the P+P, atleast if my mixes turn out it does not dent my wallet

Its £3 for delivery... in my mind i have to buy loads to justify the postage costs but i cant afford loads of £8 bottles sadly. I guess i am so used to reasonable prices from other vendors. Myepack was £1.95 for sign for for my spinner

I sent one 30ml bottle of juice to someone and it cost £3 so I think the charges are fair.

Ive not sent many parcels recently so dont really know much about postage costs, just go by other companies i have bought from. £11 with postage to get one 15ml bottle is steep for me

[Super-Shiny]

It's the thickness of the bottle that raises the price, bottle plus jiffy will not fit through the so called letter thingy with Royal Mail so the charge is pretty much spot on, but not so good if you only want one juice, better to buy more to justify the postage costs....but still £8.00 for 15ml is still a little steep.

£8 for a bottle of juice that's really nice isn't too bad. £8 for a bottle of juice that you absolutely hate when you try it however is not such a good deal.

Basically, I'm not going to spend £8 for each flavour to find out. If they were to do 5ml bottles at £3 each I'd steam on in there and then order the 15mls if there was something I really liked.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks this way. Their loss.

Samples would be a good idea, maybe 3-5ml samples in basic plastic bottles to keep postage costs down for samples just to test out the juice before committing to large bottles would be the way to go.

So has anyone tried their juices?

[poochops]

Just signed up to have a look around but to be honest I wouldn't buy on the principle that I refuse to shop anywhere that deigns to allow me to become a customer, I mean wtf is that about?
Yes mr Poochops your custom fits in with our expansion plans this month so we've had a vote and decided to let you in. Feck off, condescending idiots.
Grrrr.

 That's a "No" from me also. There are  loads of other and probably "better" vendors around that do not go through this BS

I can see both sides here, if they are snowed under and someone might be ill for all we know, then closing new business to new customers doesn't seem a bad idea.
But it does look a bit daft from the customer side and counter productive, as some people may get a little put off by the attitude.

They aren't really doing anything that top atty producers are doing, we can't produce as much as you want, so supplies are limited.

I've never heard of them before tbh, so don't understand any hype.

I was a bit more tactful on the other thread about this, but couldn't agree more. How are they going to manage all the accounts that people have registered to look and then haven't ordered? Surely that sort of account will deny a potential customer being able to join and order when they reach capacity.

I think they do this to try to prevent the situation there is with GVC as demand outweighs supply at the moment. I bought 2 x 15ml a week or two ago and then couldn't get any more until they had made a new batch.

I mostly do DIY now but it is still nice to have some "ready made" for a change as I get bored with the same flavours and life is sometimes too hectic to do DIY. This is my second order and I ordered 130ml this time. Postage was still only £3.

I think it is quality juice and considering my hubby and I were spending over £30 per day on analogues I don't think their prices are too excessive. It really is my favourite at the moment and beats anything I have mixed myself. However, my main ADV will still probably be DIY even though I am planning to try all their different flavours in the future. Experimenting with devices and juices is the main thing that keeps me away from analogues so, for me, it is worth it. Hubby is more easily pleased but even he wanted some more of the Druide even though he loves my DIY Afro Dizziac.
