Here we go again.
When the TPD was about to come into force I bought 30 litres of nic in PG & VG.
The PG ran out this year but thanks to the 'light hand' TPD enforcement my supplier had
scrapped the 'not for vaping' declaration before I ran out.
If they tax bulk nicotine then eliquid producers will have to put prices up on top of the tax.
I have my work around planned for the tax on 10ml.

Hi fellow hoarders.
I recently rediscovered 3 Provaris amongst my vape hoard.
The best tank I have to use with them is the RG 400 from Fastech.
I have 5 RG 200s but only one 400.
Let me know if you have 1 or more and we can come to an arrangement re cash or swapsies.

Hi GunJackNow look in once a week. Used to be daily to read the funnies by Ron but not so many of them now. Mix for about 30 vapers now down from 40 as people give up or move on. Don't look for replacements as the nicotine stash is dwindling. Still recoiling nautilus coils and servicing Nautilus & minis with parts I got from Aspire. Hope you, Mrs GJ & mini GJ are all doing well. |

Why not another nautilus?
My son still uses them and they are available on ebay.
I still recoil the nautilus coils and use them in Kabukis.

Easter would normally start my car boot season on Sunday mornings. Fair weather only.
I take a load of old vaping stuff and sell some of it but also give some of it away depending on the 'buyer's attitude.
I had a load of 10ml bottles with a plastic cap incorporating a thin metal needle tube.
Buyer "How much are they?"
Me "How many do you want?"
Buyer "3"
Me "Take 6 for nothing."
Buyer "Oh I can't do that."
Me "In 30 seconds they are £1 each."
Buyer taking 3 as fast as she could "Thank you."
I usually pack up with a warm inner glow.

We went into lockdown 2 weeks ago as Angie is in the same situation as Chrissie. There's a big green plastic box outside our front window. All parcels are put in there and we don't give signatures for them. People I make liquids for have been collecting them from the same box. After each collection or delivery I disinfect it. I go out walking the dog and have no trouble social distancing. Family have been great getting our shopping. Some people still don't get how serious it is. Daughter in law got some shopping for us and waived payment until I told her it would go on for months. As the restrictions have got tighter I've started posting liquids in the post box on my dog walk. Thought it couldn't get worse until my specs fell apart. I'm using an old pair which only have one arm or prescription sun glasses depending on the light conditions. Coiling in sun glasses is fun. NOT. |

I've got so much vaping stuff collected in 5 years of vaping. Family often say why do you keep them. I make liquids & coils for about 40 vapers and several of them have asked me 'Have you got …?' I usually have. When, one week, I found I had 79 coils to dry burn, clean & rewick I told the 10 smifee coil users they would have to rewick their own. All except one guy who has a disability. He gets liquids once a month, returns the bottles & 20 coils and collects 20 fresh ones. Now I'm not accepting bottles, coils or money I have to make him 20 recoiled nautilus coils for the next 3 month minimum. So I told 'er indoors 'That's why I've kept 600 used nautilus coils.'  |

Hi All
Even though the site is very quiet these days I still look in nearly every day for Ron's funnies.
Shinyitis has gone as I've been settled with Kabukis, genuine & clone, for a couple of years. Make my own liquids and use Nautilus BVC coils that I have recoiled.
When production of Kabukis finished I started looking for a tank to use when I wouldn't be able get spares for them.
Tried the Nautilus X because it has top fill & top air flow. Great tank for very strong flavours like Mint, Menthol & Blackjack but hopeless for any subtle flavours.
Next up was the Innokin Zlide. I bought the bare bones ( Zlide Express ) version in case I didn't like it. Figuring £12 was only half what I paid for the Nauty X.
Oh!!! Wow, Wow and more wows. So easy to fill and when I knock the air flow ring it doesn't move like the Nauty Minis. The coils last for ages.
Downside is that I will have to buy coils as I can't get 'em apart to see if I can recoil them.
Santa has been told I would like more Zlides.

I use 10 to 15 litres of PG and 20 to 30 litres of VG a year and only buy from Lubrisolve.
