Hello all Desperately need to re-stock my FA Caramel (vital component of one of my ADVs, of which I'm nearly out ). For a while now I've seen Flavour Creative conc's at Chefs, and it's obviously FA in disguise. I have also just noticed Flavour Max conc's at The E-cig Shop, and these also appear to be FA. Both of these ( Flavour Max and Flavour Creative ) are half the price of actual FA conc's - so what (if anything) is different other than the name? I just find it odd that both sites sell branded Flavour Art, but also sell them under a pseudonym. Are they the same strength? I know Lorannes are sold under different names on both sites - but neither site sell branded Lorannes, so that's understandable. I'm still skint after xmas so every penny counts, and it'd be great to buy the FA's I need cheaper - just don't want to buy some and it be diluted or different somehow. I couldn't cope with ruining a whole new batch of my honey nut mix! Anyone have an idea, or bought some so knows for sure they're the same? Cheers

If they are the same, it will be because rather than buying in 10ml FA bottles, the supplier will have bought a bigger bottle from FA and rebottled themselves (buying like this would work out cheaper).... AFAIK rebottled FA can not be sold branded as FA, which would explain the different names.

Yep - makes total sense about re-bottling, but I don't then understand why they continue to sell branded FA bottles as well Am just pleased I can get them cheaper - minime has assured me that Flavour Max are definitely proper FA

( Chefs Flavour Creative range is also re-branded FA. )

And I'd guess that the minimum bulk order would be a litre so it would only make sense for Chefs to rebottle the fastest moving flavours.

Don't forget spacey you get 15ml flavour max ( FA ) from the e cig shop not 10ml.

Useful thread spacey. I first found out about Flavour Max from Perpetua when she alerted us to a sale there, but only recently realised that Chefs did a range, too. Cheapest of all is getting the 100ml bottles direct from FA, I was lucky enough to catch a sale there and got 100ml of Oba Oba for £10. FA are great value for me anyway as I find I can use really low amounts, they work out cheaper than nearly any other flavours on the market.

Nomnomz Craft Flavour(s) are FA rebrands, and of course 50% off right now across the site.
