No, I just updated the stock levels and the last ever 11 bottles are now in stock and can be purchased. I wouldn't hang about if you'd like some

Aww, I'm sorry. This is so frustrating. The 4th time it's happened to me now. 3 are no more and one luckily was able to be reformulated but this one is simply not good enough to be used in any way unless you fancy a faint taste of stale, musty nuts with a twang of cardboard! What they were thinking when they changed it, gawd knows! Another little update in general: PIRATESVAPE WILL BE ON HOLIDAY FROM SATURDAY 04/04/15 UNTIL FRIDAY 10/04/15. LAST ORDERS FOR NICOTINE/PG/VG ARE 1.30PM THURSDAY 02/04/15 AND FOR CONCENTRATES 9.00AM SATURDAY 04/04/15. THE WEBSITE WILL BE OPEN AGAIN FOR ALL ORDERS ON FRIDAY (10/04/15) He must be off sailing the high seas looking for treasure

Update on Miss Chief. It's just not going to happen in any form. After trying several variations trying to salvage something from it, it's just not good enough. If it was just a background note in Miss Chief I could do something with it but this is the main ingredient for it and it's so far from what it was it's literally not use-able. It lacks everything, depth, richness, strength. The flavour itself is just totally different. It just doesn't work not even to tweak it into something else. So Miss Chief is no more and will be taken off the menu. I have 10 bottles left, Piratesvape has 9. I will no doubt send along the 10 I have to him on his next top up but after that it's gone for good

Mint toffee, yes that mint would work well as a mint toffee, it has crossed my miind in the past. Only problem is I have tried tons of toffee and caramel flavours and none are good enough, for me anyway lol Maybe one day That banana is rather potent. Bear in mind a huge majority of my recipes were created 3 1/2yrs ago when all we had were mostly cartos and clearos so flavours needed to be strong. Of course with todays mainstream rebuildables and high powered mods that one does tend to be a little too strong. I am in the process of tweaking it to allow the custard to come through a bit more and tone down the banana a notch. I am mindful that many love that one so it won't be a major reformulated version just balanced better for todays equipment. You can of course use a little less of it to suit your own tastes in the meantime if it's a little strong

It's not meant to replicate anything really. Alhough some have said it has a bit of a similarity in a way to Vermillion Rivers kentucky premium vanilla which wasnt intentional lol Hope you enjoy it

Some news about the Miss Chief flavouring. Unfortunately when I reordered supplies for this one, it arrived with the flavouring completely changed by the manufacturer and I was not told upon ordering it. It is so far from what it was it may have to be taken off the menu. I am currently trying to see if it's salvageable in any way and I'm also experimenting with whether it can be tweaked into something else but I won't know that for at least another week or two. There is very little left of the original so if you like that one, I strongly suggest you order some now. I do apologise but occasionally manufacturers do tweak or change flavours. Very frustrating when that happens. It happened with the raspberry and apple too but I have managed to reformulate that one so t tastes the same except slightly less punchy on the raspberry. The new version will make it's way to the pirateship in the next couple of weeks. There's a small amount left of the original. Of course the product description will be updated to reflect the change when the new one replaces the original. I don't think anyone will be disappointed though as it is still very close to the original. As for Miss Chief, I will let you know as soon as I can whether it'll be a tweaked version into something else or if it'll be no more

I couldn't really answer better myself than Pepperty has done. They contain all you need apart from nic, pg, vg of course. They're great for new mixers and those who cant be bothered to mix and make up their own recipes, it's all been done for you

True but far better to offer your best price for all than some missing out because they can't find/forget/don't know about a particular discount code but thats just me

Discount codes are mostly a psychological trick in retail to make the customer think they're getting a bargain or a better price. They're not. The usual price is artificially inflated to cover the discount code. When I had my shop I decided not to do that and kept the prices at least 50p lower than others with no discount code. Except then I had people asking and moaning about no discount code! You can't win

Good idea, here's the full list that can still be made if enough demand is there for the ones not stocked yet.
Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream A smooth vape with a creamy vapour sensation. Mint and choc perfectly balanced, none of that powdery feel or artificial taste most chocolate vapes have. People have said it reminds them of mint feasts, mint viennetta and after eights. Vanilla Ice Cream Smooth, real clotted cream vanilla ice cream. Not that weak, insipid vanilla that's mostly out there you can barely taste. Blackcurrant Ice A very mild menthol with a deep, strong fruity blackcurrant similar to Tunes. Caramel Latte Caramel coffee flavour that's not too weak softened with a sweet creamy/milky tone. Inspired by Tassimo Caramel Macchiato Latte. Kool Orange A cold, slightly sweet orange (Not menthol) Kool Pear A cold, slightly sweet pear. Tastes closer to real pears than a peardrops flavour. Fairly strong in flavour. Kool Apple A cold real apple taste. Reminds me of braeburn apples. Slightly tart, yet sweet too! Not a weak, watery type apple, this has a really good strength of flavour. Pineapple Tastes like strong, real pineapples, not the tinned variety! *May crack polycarb* Ginger Biccies As what it says, ginger biccies! The ginger has a slight bite to it, don't vape if sensitive to cinnamon, ginger style vapes. Carumel A made up juice that doesn't replicate anything which tastes heavenly. Although this one NEEDS two - three weeks steeping to bring out the flavour. It's worth the wait I promise. Turns into a gorgeous creamy caramel fudge with added rum. Fresh Cream Strawberry Doughnut As it sounds. A fresh cream doughnut with juicy strawberries. A very indulgent after dinner vape. Who needs pudding, this is calorie free! StrawberryJam Doughnut Jam Again, it tastes of doughnuts with strawberry jam. Raspberry Jam Doughnuts: As above but with raspberry. Raspberry Dodge A complex recipe which benefits from 1-2 weeks of steeping to get the best taste from it. What does it taste of? Jammy dodgers! Yes, really! Exotic Bliss An exotic blend of tropical fruits, quite strong in taste that'll get you salivating. Mangoes, papayas... where's my sunlounger? Peach Passion: Peaches & Passionfruit. Has a similarity to the fruity bit in the middle of Solero ice creams. Black Ice Strong aniseed to shake you awake along with a good blast of menthol. Belgian Chocolate Pralines Guylian Chocolate Seashells in a vape. Yes really! Banana & Custard: Like that comforting bowl of sliced bananas covered in creamy custard. Mint Tea: A delicate mint tea. Raspberry Tea: A delicate raspberry tea. Raspberry & Custard Dodge: Creamier than the standard, not overly 'custardy' but enough to give it that something extra special. Strawberry & Custard Dodge: As above but with strawberry instead of raspberry. Strawberry Dodge: The standard dodge but with strawberry instead of raspberry. Apple & Raspberry: Similar to Ribena's Apple & Raspberry drink. Different raspberry used in this one than in the others. It's very refreshing, sweet (but not too sweet!) very tangy and incredibly mouthwatering. This is a strong, in your face flavour! One of the flavourings has been changed, this will be reformulated shortly. Still tastes the same, just slightly less ‘punchy’ on the raspberry. Hot Buns: Hot Cross Buns! Midnight Treasure: Dark Chocolate Bounty Miss Chief: A mischievously indulgent e-liquid. Creamy and rich with a nutty overtone combined with subtle tones of vanilla and custard. Apricot Swirl: Sweet and tangy apricots emerge from a soft, delicate creamy base. Those who are generally fruity vapers and not dessert vapers may like this one as the creaminess is not too strong, heavy or sickly. It's very hard to describe, it's very soft, edging towards a vanilla cream than any 'cream/fresh cream type'

I'm so pleased you enjoyed them I don't do any lemon or lime type flavours. I used to do a lemon tea but discontinued it due to lack of interest, doesn't seem to be many into lemon type vapes. I have been dabbling with a lemon drizzle cake, whether that'll ever get released I don't know. As for lime, a very popular ready made eliquid a lot of people like is Lime Sparkle by fair city vapes. Very strong and does melt polycarbonate tanks unfortunately but a lip smacking, 'in your face' vape so you might want to check that out I have no affiliation with them other than knowing the owners of fair city vape

It's a shame I'm not closer or I'd step in to process orders at times like these, unfortunately I'm over 250 miles away. ringading I can do most of the others ones not presently stocked as long as enough demand is there. I would far rather get in more supplies for the more popular ones so we have enough to go round than get a little less of those and a smaller amount of others that have been requested by just a couple of people if that makes sense! So yes, if enough ask for it Perpetua

I don't have any plans to, for a few reasons. Every man and his dog now makes the eliquid version, it's also easy enough to make your own plus trying to keep enough of the custard to go round in the banana and custard and the custard dodgers can be a challenge by itself So for now I'd have to say no but if things change I will let you know In other news I have a brand new one that will be stocked by Piratesvape very shortly. By the weekend I hope. It's called Apricot Swirl which is a mix of tangy, gently sweet apricots with a very soft, creamy base. When I say creamy, I don't mean a heavy, sickly or rich cream. It can be difficult to describe other than it's very 'soft' perhaps edging towards a vanilla cream type. Those who aren't usually dessert vapers but like fruity ones may well like this one too! The apricot is more dominant than the soft creamy base which tends to follow at the end of the exhale. I hope you'll all enjoy it
