Thank you all for all your good wishes - Tea is the future, The Timperley Tea Company Ltd to be precise. timperleytea.com should be live as from Tuesday next week, same deal as with Piratesvape really ie the best quality stuff, stored properly etc etc BUT this venture will be going into the real world, something that I was always frustrated I couldn't do with DIY vaping stuff.

So, if you like decent tea - and tea can mean so much more than black dust in a tea bag - then you know where I am

Hello it's rather sad isn't it, I wouldn't have been able to buy the nicotine base I sell after the 20th of November anyway BUT the bottom just dropped out of the market a couple of months ago for whatever reason so it was time to move on to something else before I had to pay to get out of Piratesvape. Sad to say but people mostly just want cheap and vendors who don't apparently understand the difference between turnover and net profit are happy to cater to that. I know there are people who think differently but my estimation of the size of the DIY market is that it's only actually about 100,000 people and 2/3rds of them want to pay as little as they can...... I can't be bothered explaining why you should pay more for decent stuff any more so......

First post updated with discounts to Hot Buns, Midnight Treasure and Belgian Chocolate Praline concentrates

I've had a quick check, and I will have a further more intensive check tomorrow but all we seem to have left now have (at worst) is a 'best by date' of April 2016, obviously some flavours sell better than others but Pixie and I do take that into account.

To be honest I found a bottle of T Juice Cubana concentrate with a sell by date of 2014 over Christmas (bought well before I was Piratesvape) - mixed it up and still good apparently

BUT fair enough, that was my risk and I will check all the stock we have and as Pixie has said we will replace all our stock from a batch that has too short a use by date. No one has been sold anything out of date and nor will they!  

Of course you can tax e-liquid - and they will be doing - and to be honest most people who vape haven't the remotest interest in making their own, just as they aren't interested in smoking pipes, rolling their own cigarettes, brewing their own beer etc etc. I would imagine they will also be taxing nicotine rather heavily as well, obviously it won't actually make making your own e-liquid that much more expensive but putting the price up from 60-70p a ml to more like £1.50 a ml is going be a huge deal for people who think 70p is extortionate!

Anyway, no one actually knows exactly what the implementation of the law is going to be yet so..........

With regards to stashing nicotine by the way it might be worth bearing in mind that most people who earn a living working with chemicals suggest that if you put a litre of 7.2% nicotine base in the freezer today when you crack it open in 2030 it will be rather less than 72mg strength. They can't say by how much because no one has done it yet but I have heard an informed guess at between 50-60mg a couple of times.

No, I'm well aware Piratesvape isn't for everyone - I'm far from new to vaping and I've never really skimped on vaping gear - I'm the same with what I vape in it so to sell nicotine etc that wasn't what I would buy to use myself just wouldn't feel right.

Vaping is a difficult industry to be in especially at the moment and, to be honest, if I was just in it because I thought vaping was an easy way to make a few quid rather than believing in what I'm doing then I would have given up months ago.

Non of that is meant to be any kind of criticism of any other vendors or their customers, just what Piratesvape is about

I'm not out of stock of anything..........
