That PG is pharma grade - the BP means British Pharmacopoeia and EP means European Pharmacopoeia.
At less than 7 quid a litre that's half the price of Boots.
I would (if I didn't already have a half litre from Boots)

Well, with whatever grain of salt I take DHL's on-going status, they only created the record on 30th so they were not even involved on the 25th, 26th or 27th and therefore FastTech lied at least twice.
If anyone can think of any other way this can have occurred than Fairy Gift sitting on my order for three whole days, requesting DHL the following Monday (30th), then disappearing on holiday so DHL couldn't pick it up, I'd like to hear it.

I don't know which, but the point was they announced that this was going immediately via DHL precisely because of the holiday.
I placed the order on 25th when they claimed their stock was ready to go. On 27th they claimed it had.
They had two working days before their holiday (which they took from 30th) to make up for that lie.

barrynorton I wouldn't be so hasty in calling Fairy Gift liars as packages from Fasttech for example will remain in this status with Singapore Post for up to 4 - 5 days. It has almost certainly been picked up and is going through the Chinese customs processing system. It's not even been passed to DHL, just booked [Note: DHL, not regular post] |

Thanks, didn't think of Twitter. Not sure anyone's going to be even monitoring that until 7th now.

Fairy Gift completely failed on their promise to DHL my VTR before the national holiday.
Focalecig also seem to have failed on the commitment that early orders in the ProTank group buy would go out before the holiday.
My latest FastTech order was too small for them to give me a tracking number so I'm two weeks in (not worrying yet) blind.
All in all I wish I'd just ordered mine from UK eCig Store, or better got the train to Wembley, and paid for the privilege (including actually seeing it and inspecting mine before handing over the cash).
Especially if the thing is DOA, like the one in the first 'punter's' video I've seen.

Well, it's now been 7 days since I ordered the iTaste VTR from Fairy Gift on 25th on the promise that they had their stock and would dispatch immediately via DHL 3 day.
On 27th 'Justin', from Fairy Gift, said it had "already shipped out via DHL".
According to the tracking number, which I've had since 30th, its status is "Shipment information received" - which means it has not even been picked up.
Fairy Gift lied. Badly.
I'm half expecting it's not even going to get into DHL's hands until 7th.

And, yes, you can buy it (most do) at strengths (0-34mg) that you use neat. This will just be called e-liquid, as per Karma's links above. Most 'clearomisers' (the bit on top) will take 1-3ml and you'd probably buy at least 10ml at a time. Some people buy up to 100ml if/when they find a flavour they really like. Some of us buy stronger nicotine solutions, flavouring and dilutants but there's no need to unless/until you want. |

5 desperately-needed iClear heads (FT), one VTR (Fairy Gift) and one Protank II (Focal). It's a race from China... but the competitors don't seem to be taking it very seriously  |

Voted, but it could have been written better:
"The proposed tobacco products directive contains legislation that would classify all nicotine containing products as medicines"
No it doesn't. It doesn't classify tobacco itself as a medicine!
[And to be really picky, it doesn't 'contain legislation', it contains a proposal for a directive which would prompt legislation - people often fail to understand that the EU do not create legislation]

Give that 24 hours and it will be removed ... I tried to auction some e-lite cartos that I had lying about from when I first started vaping ... the auction was accepted but subsequently removed .. reason given was that eBay can not accept illegal items that contain nicotine with a reference made to Scandanavian countries. That was about 6 months ago so unless they have changed the policy ??? They haven't - as Brambles says, someone is trying to covertly list this. It will get removed the second there's a complaint. |
