Local vendors have to pay little things like tax, VAT, NI, living wages, rent, council tax etc as opposed to employing small children fed sawdust and kept in boxes overnight.
Personally I'm happy to pay a little more, get things quickly, have back up if I need it, and be able to communicate with vendors - all of whom post here.

You crack me up man.........

It may have been beginners luck but with service like that they definitely deserve another order. Trouble is I don't really need anything now hardware wise.
Next orders are definitely more concentrates after the success of my
Banoffee Cream (Griswald's Style)
Vanilla Custard (Shiny Style)
Next up obviously Vanilla Custard (Perpetua Style)



Shiny mentioned them being similar apart from the sweetness.. Which one is sweeter? I keep meaning to look at the recipe cards to compare.

Shiny's . . . though I add 1% Sweetener ( TPA or Flavor West ) and 1% Vanillin Crystals to all my custardy mixes now daveyboy37. Gives a more creamier mix, without overly gunking coils which alot of sweetener does tend to do.

Excellent... Vanillin Crystals can go on my shopping list... I have sweetener from Vape Escape, which I believe is actually TPA.. (He says holding the bottle to the lamp trying to read the label.) In fact the few flavourings I have are from Vape Escape with the exception of 4 or 5 that are Capella which are mainly a mix of creams and vanilla's. They're all only 10ml tho.
Is there a good site that sells larger bottles (preferably selling different brands). Or is it gonna be a case of heading over to C9V, TPA, F'Art sites individually?


EDIT: Wow I hijacked my own thread...

Liberty Flights do some TPA flavours in larger sizes Davey, although they're out of stock of most.

Otherwise it does tend to be a case of going direct.

Another twist to the digression.

[daveyboy37]

Excellent.. I will have a look on Liberty flights tomorrow. My main staples are Banoffee Cream and Custard.. So the plan is stock up on requirements for those and look at expanding and trialling more flavours at a later date.

Thank you Perpetua

daveyboy37 classikool do a mean banana if ya desperate. I half the amount but it's fab

[daveyboy37]

Banana Is one flavour I'm sorted with.
I currently use Griswalds banana cream concentrate (TPA) and the yesterday Super-Shiny mentioned that C9V is also a good one.
Oddly enough banana is one of my least favourite fruits, but I just can't stop vaping Banoffee Cream.

[Deleted]

I just love classikools banana though it's very strong. I can't vape enough of it. I can't stand their cherry though (even at 1%)

Sa i was to buy £150 of stuff from abroad and it was pulled at customs, how do you about paying import duties, do they contact you telling you parcel has been pulled and import duty needs paying or is it a case of keeping tabs on your parcel by tracking it and it would come up as duties owed on it or summink along those lines and how much are import duties, question questions i know lol, but appreciate the help guys, thx.

Depends upon the method of shipping Scaff:

Via DHL/Courier: they'll inform you ( via phone for me in the past ) of what duty you owe, then you have the option of paying over the phone or online.

Via Parcel Force/RM: If you're following the tracking online, then it will say on the Customs procedure if your parcel has attracted duty. I've phoned up the RM depot and paid over the phone in the past, or if it's a smaller parcel that your postie could deliver, you should get a card telling you what you owe. In those instances I trot down to the main sorting office, pay the bill and collect my parcel.

Thank you. It's something that I had meant to ask myself. My order wasn't particularly large and it all ended well. So I was also curious about the possible pitfalls of a larger order. Thank you also Perpetua for explaining it.
