So has he ignored your request for a certificate of analysis for their current batch for both the raw ingredients and finished product Perpetua ? Yes, completely Dave . . . . and I don't know that there's much point in pursuing it, as it appears to be information he's reluctant to divulge. Seems a bit short sighted to me, if it would help with consumer confidence/sales.

If like another cheap (popular) vendor, I strongly suspect that he probably doesn't have the info, rather than being unwilling to share it

There's much I don't understand!

As a vendor, our nicotine was from Nicobrand, a UK pharmaceutical manufacturer... good, traceable and batch certified, but not cheap. Stocking up because of the TPD, as a penny pinching customer, I've gone with Everything Liquid, who buy their nicotine from Alchem (Switzerland), as do The E-cig Shop. Although I wasn't that impressed with EL not replying to several emails.

I took a chance on them and they have been very good to deal with, my order came through within a couple of days at which time I found 500ml of nic had not been dispatched, I phoned and spoke to a very pleasant young lady who apologised on behalf of the warehouse staff and promised to sort it, she was as good as her word and it came the next day, I will try a test batch this coming week (need to see what flavours I have) and try to remember to come back to this thread and report how it seems.
I have bookmarked the thread, just need to do the same with the memory now.

I used to be a vendor and also sold high quality nicotine, but pulled the plug on the business at the beginning of the year. Now, I'm just a customer/consumer, buying for personal consumption.

Returning to the original question, I have used Lucemill and have no qualms about them.
Good service, but as it will be some (possibly) years before I get around to using their Nic Base, I have no idea about the quality of their product.
Anyways, everything looks hunky-dorey.

Same here been using it for the last couple of months, don't know what all the fuss is about, as to labels and codes the bottles have all the correct labels and codes you can look up on Google. Seems to me some elitist crap being spouted, posted. Or is it a case of if it ain't got "Made in England" stamped on it, it's crap, or it's to cheap so you shouldn't even think of buying it. We all started on this journey IMO for either health reasons or financial reasons, take your pick, for me personally I will be using them as my main supplier, as they are local, friendly, great service and looking to go larger premises in the future, so why would they sell anything that would jeopardise there future. You can please some of the people some of the time but you will "Never" please all of the people ALL of the time.

Looking back at past records, I bought my first Nic Base 3 years ago from the USA at £104 delivered for one litre. These days I can buy the same amount, delivered from Lucemill at 30 quid. Nic Base must be one of the few items around that has drastically fallen in price in the last 3 years. 30 years from now they will be paying us to take it away!!!!!

Once we hit the 20th may your nic prices will shoot up and only 10ml x 20mg

Once we hit the 20th may your nic prices will shoot up and only 10ml x 20mg I doubt if you will even be allowed to buy 20mg as most Vendors are setting an upper limit of 18mg. As 18 or 20mg is too low for me, I have made alternative arrangements and will start worrying about the effects of TDP around the 20th of May 2029. Between now and then, not only will my "nic prices" not "shoot up" but will in fact, be nil. As I am sure most present vapers are doing.

There's much I don't understand! Anyone spending many thousands in a single order is going to have the information before the purchase. At the very least they will be in the position to get it with a single phone call or e-mail Not wishing to share it is also a cop out -- it takes no time to cover sensitive information before scanning.

is it possible these guys will put up prices to follow darkstar? meant to get 2 litres off ds (was worried about lucemill not having certificate) but went to pay last night and its 9 quid extra. maybe its better to get here before they put up.
