Even if the worst possible comes about and the UK sticks strictly to the TPD wording, it will still be possible to buy 10ml bottles of (probably) 18mg/ml nic that will make 30ml of 6mg/ml juice.
It'll be far more expensive than we've been able to make before but if juice-makers switch to producing 'one-shots' to the correct formulation, it'll be feasible for most vapers to simply make their own juices.
Of course, the EU and those who take a position against vaping may well attempt to close this loophole in the future but we'll face that when it happens.

well i have 2l stocked in the freezer and use less than 150ml a year atm while i vape diy juice about 50% of the time I am still searching for flavours i like 2 puffs in a row let alone 2 days in a row.. By the time i need more i am hopeful some non eu supplier has earnt themselves a good name, meanwhile anyone in retail/distribution start thinking about non vaping applications for lab grade nicotine juice, personally i reckon it would make an ideal fishing bait additive Or i bet nicotine in a PG solution would make a great autobody polish too hrumph!

This not being able to get my 72mg Nic is starting to be on my mind 24/7.
Am I right that business to business can still trade in Nic ?

I will be going zero nic over the next couple of years. My next half litre of juice I'll be dropping from 3mg to 2mg then in a few months I'll go to 1. It will be great if I can get to zero and cheap as well

I'm now nic free, it was kinda forced on me at the time, but it wasn't really that bad & I think it was only because I vape very flavourful juice. A suggestion for you all, have a trial & mix up a bottle of zero nic of your favourite strong flavour & see how you get on. You might be pleasantly surprised & if it's not for you, then you won't have lost anything in trying. Actually, the results would be quite interesting.

I started vaping wiv 36mg.; got to 18mg. when I started diy....then 12 (quite a bit still left!!...) & the latest batches mixed @ 8mg. I'm hoping to wean myself off the nic. .....tho' as 'someone' stated that steeping 'baccy to make juice 'may' result in pos. up to 5mg. being extracted along with the flavour, maybe I'll never be nic. free; even mixing at 0mg.!!

Iv had 100ml of pg Nic in the freezer for 3 month I tried a mix with it yesterday and it's got a bad smell and very harsh so I did same mix with some Nic iv had in a draw ( 5 week old stuff ) and it's fine. I think it depends on how long ago it was manufactured and how and where it's been stored before we get it. I'm using 30ml glass amber bottles filled to brimming (no air or as little as possible) then straight into the freezer, it's pg based so I don't think it actually freezes.

plans...... I have 3 litres of 72 nic in the freezer which at my current usuage would last me somewhere between five and ten years. But I'm sure that ways and means of getting more will have been presented by then.

You need to do a blind test really mix 2 lots the same but one zero nic and one your normal %, then give them to somebody for a day or two to stop you knowing which is which. Then try them without knowing whats in each bottle and see what the results are then.
