Kentucky Vanilla Blend - why no stock in UK?

[Karma]

Ah, womble didn't realise it was imported in concentrate then made up here

i really liked the 'smokeyness' of classic blend but the last one I bought is almost unvapeable

There is a dissie code kicking about somewhere for the VR site over on UKV. I've been searching off and on all night trying to find it again, no luck yet

I didn't realise it was imported in a concentrate till one batch I had was of a much lower flavour. There's a thread I started on here somewhere.
At the time I was a relatively new vaper and didn't know what I was doing, so struggled to find the answer, till I asked Ben how he made it, then it made sense. They must have made a mistake once, I know I saw another thread on ukvapers saying the same thing.

I must stress though, this was last year and I've had no problems since then. It's been very reliable.

I don't use the classic blend neat, but add it to the vanilla, but only when I'm drinking alcohol really, there was a thread on here recently about beer especially masking the flavour of the juice and I find it adds that much needed tobacco flavour I find I want.
I've tried various other tobacco flavours added to the vanilla before and some have been good, but the classic is truly great for it. At least to me

A discount code would be great if someone can find it.

ECF seems to give 10% off according to various places.

I'll fire off an email to VR to find out the details on postage etc.

Done

Looks like it's $19.95 for delivery, so for 120ml it would be $84.95 (£53) delivered, 26 pence more expensive per 30ml than buying it from the UK - not too bad I guess, unless we can get a discount code

[OneDay]

Well done Tim. That 26p difference is definitely worth it if UK stocks are to vanish completely

This sounds really good, I for one would love some and would be interested in buying some if you need to buy in bulk and pass it on.

Our VR range is due to be restocked within the next couple of days. I'm afraid the 120ml bulk buy orders have been put on hold at the moment due to stock availability.



So no idea why the vanilla has been removed from the site.

Yeah I hate it when the firm you write to, doesn't answer the actual question you asked

Still I suppose we'll find out soon enough.

The answer from Sam:

Hi Tim,

We are certainly continuing to stock this liquid, and it is due to be bottled within the next couple of days.


If you have any further questions or queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

Many thanks,

Sam Warburton

Well that's good to know.

I did just hear back from VR.

The postage is $19.95 up to 5 60ml bottles.

[kruegerbait]

I've just noticed this is back in stock at Liberty Flights if anyone is still looking.

[Globalbloke (Tim)]

Oh yes - mine is being delivered tomorrow, 60mls of 24mg loveliness

[womble]

To bring this up to date.

I ordered from VR US and received my package a couple of days ago, no fuss, no hassle.
I see that UKE-liquid still doesn't have the vanilla as a 30ml bottle.

If you need to order from VR HQ, it works out ok in my experience, but I did buy the maximum 5 60ml bottles to make up the postage.

That's good to know just in case, did you get stung by import taxes or anything?
