I just went on to a Spanish website to order some VG which was just 6.50 euros for 1 litre - yesssss I thought, hooray I can get some pretty local without international delivery charges. Got to checkout and with the postage to the Canaries it was gonna cost me a total of 51.75 euros Went on to a UK site listed on the vendors list on here and found the delivery cost would be £25 - another shock I just know I'm gonna run out of VG well before anyone I know is due a visit over here Don't know what to do now

Could someone in the UK buy and send you some at a better shipping cost toots? Though I've no idea however how much it does actually cost to post to your part of the world . . . . . .

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions. And @19steve57 thanks for the link, I managed to find the VG that this seller was also advertising and went ahead and bought a litre. Have also now set up an ebay account so I can get some more from the same seller again if I need to get it sent out over here in the future I do have a friend who comes over fairly regularly and I can get him to bring some over for me, problem right now is that he is already over here and will not be going back till just before Xmas, then I would have to wait for him to book a flight back over here. But I will get him to bring some more over with him next visit to make sure I have got plenty as I have recently found out these subtanks use up a lotta juice How ridiculous is it that the delivery charges from Spain to the Canaries is sooooo much more expensive than from the UK. I just cannot believe it

Local pharmacies don't stock it? have you tried asking if they will order some in for you? Nope, they do not stock it, have asked in several pharmacies. One even told me VG was anti-freeze would you believe I tried educating the guy but he wouldn't have any of it, he was adamant it was anti-freeze

you might want to look at seeing what the demand on the Island is like, could be a nice little earner in bulk

And Ryanair would have charged me far more than 52 Euros. I bought it for you and still have some left if you wanna come get it

Ooooh I just realised your link was for the UK ebay, but when I click on it it sends me straight to the Spanish ebay so I ordered it from the Spanish site and obviously signed up for an account on the Spanish ebay site, hmmmm I should have used the VPN which I normally have set up on a UK server

Gould knows how they continue to manage on them for any length of time

Especially if you discover the drippers available at the mo, like the Velocity. Or even the Smok TFV4 tank..... that's thirsty!!!!
