I think you have mis-read my post GeoffUK ... I am in favour of buying from China and would never dream of even entering a B&M shop knowing that they buy from the same Chinese warehouses and then add a 200 - 300% mark up. ETA: "it takes me to the fair" means it makes me laugh scornfully ... Perhaps it is just a local N.Ireland saying. Ooops mis-read your point. My bad.  |

It takes me to the fair when I hear people criticising those who don't give their hard earned cash to local B&M shops but buy direct from the large "stack 'em high and sell 'em cheap" warehouses .... Do these people think like that when they are shopping at Tescos rather than the local village shop? @yinyang
"It takes me to the fair"? Wonderful. I have never heard that turn of phrase before, I shall make a note of it.
As for your point, if those B&Ms are simply buying in bulk from China, slapping on a monster mark-up and providing little else by way of advice, service or promoting eCigs and the obvious health benefits then what is wrong with voting with your PayPal account? I have to say I have seen far too many B&M shops who have next to no stock but massively niche kit that they are too willing to push on the unsuspecting man-on-the-Clapham-omnibus who just wants to start out.
Fair enough if you are lucky enough to have a scrupulous dealer in your locale, shout it from the rooftops.
Ooooh (Edit)
My local shop is a Tesco, how do I avoid the stigma?

Shame to see him go - I wonder if the mods are able to access any info and ask him to come back Nice chap That might come under the general heading of abuse of power/authority @kopiert .
It may be more likely that some people on here were in touch with car by e-mail or other forums/groups and can pass on the news.
To quote robby, "Of course I could be talking bollox!".

Thanks for the ideas peeps. Perpetua isn't it a good feeling when you know you have had a hand in helping someone kick the dreaded weed? johnstrangey guilty as charged chum. The roundel in my signature banner is a bit of a giveaway. 24 yrs man and boy in the RAF. If they hadn't made me deaf, I would still be in. prr I will defo have a look at the aerotank. I have a subtank nano which is my weapon of choice at the mo, but my new Footoon Aqua FX arrived in the mail this morning and I am itching to get home and set this bad boy up. |

Thanks guys, i was doing it all wrong as usual . so i will get 60 x 10ml bottles from a 50ml of 72mg and the 48mg i will get 40 x 10ml bottles, i hope i got that correct? Now the next test for you clever chaps. If the 48mg is £3.00 cheaper than the 72mg which is the better value taking into account i will be losing 20x10ml bottles with the 48mg. you guys are great thanks. Note: start price should include Delivery costs of the order you place If the start price for the same volume of 48mg is over 33.33% cheaper than the start price of 72mg it works out better value Yup, which is where I got "If the 48mg is anything under £6 then its better value than the 72mg."  |

I read it too, while he has every right to complain about poor service he received from GB, I think the others had every right to defend the good service they had received.
I am still a NOOB here and please tell me to tuck my teeth in if there is some sort of precedent or history for the flounce but there was a difference of perception and Car147 imho seemed to take it too personally.
It very easy to hear a lot of bad things about a company because we are programmed to complain when things go wrong. We don't always pipe up when things go right.
I am always very careful about trashing a vendor online, it can destroy their business. I don't worry about mistakes so much, what I care about is how a company offers to make good on their mistakes.

The 72 is £8.99 the 48 is £5.99. By my (very quick) calculations they produce precisely the same amount of e-juice per ml /per penny unless you look beyond 5 decimal places of a penny.  Ah but 48 makes 40 bottles and 72 makes 60.
So if we find a number that both fit into say 120 bottles:
the 48mg base will cost 3 x £5.99 = £17.97
the 72mg base will cost 2 x £8.99 = £17.98
In bulk, I have saved puffer2 whole shiny penny.
You could of course just go to Dark vapour and save a shitload.

OK
60ml at 6% will need 7.5ml of 48mg/10ml base.
So 50ml will make about 400ml or 40 x 10ml bottles @ 48mg and 6%
and 50ml makes 60 x 10ml bottles @ 72mg and 6%
so your £3 difference equates to 20 bottles.
If the 48mg is anything more than £6 then the 72mg is the better deal. Seemples.
