Oh right… that’s pretty unprofessional :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

These were rebottled TFA and CAP flavours mate. They also seemed a bit weaker than ones from other suppliers of the same brands/flavours.

From my experience, I don’t think they’re very good with their products there. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Seems like just flip a coin and there’s your odds of succeeding in getting a vendor who are actually good.

So far, VAPO have been the most pro in how they conduct their business: fast, accurate, reliable and with an actual VISA payment option instead of dodgy as fuck weirdo shit or PayPal.

BUT: They have fuck all range of products, they in house juices taste like absolute dogshit and they’re more expensive across the board.

Their juices though… yeah took me like, two bottles of different flavours to have had quite enough of vapo brand blurgh :face_vomiting:

Lol I’m glad you noticed the emotional support part, it’s been there from the beginning as I figured we’d end up needing somewhere to vent, problem solve, potentially link up with overseas “vape friends”, all of the above! Keep us posted on your quest for your 2 commercial juices, I saw 2 users post great ideas, 1 being to contact them for a large sale & the other being to ask them for their recipes. A lot of places that know they’re closing up often post their recipes somewhere for the community to enjoy. Or who knows, they may end up keeping you on their “mailing list” after this crap goes through :wink: :crossed_fingers:t3:

I wish USPS would hurry up with their “announcement” regarding more info & details about all of this. Heartland Vapes told me it was happening around March 5th, but most other places online seem to indicate mid-late March seems more likely. As soon as I hear or know any new news, I’ll be sure to post it as a new comment & update the original post.

One the little 10mL bottles I was keen for - before just blinking at the checkout payment method and noping out - was some additive, I think from TFA called MTF or something that claimed to be an additive that boosted mouthfeel, thickness etcetera.

I had five of those little 10mL additive bottles in my cart to, them motherfuckers :rage:

Honestly, I don’t know why there’s so many vendors online still using even PayPal as their primary payment method: I am sure they can list the benefits to them, mostly cheaper I’ll assume than paying a legitimate bank to handle their payments, but I would SO much more prefer to be presented with a credit-card/VISA checkout payment form than be diverted to PayPal or anywhere else.

It just gives me the impression of an amateur business, the moment I see there’s no direct VISA payments on any site.

I bought that ages ago and to be honest don’t think I noticed any difference.

I think you’re referring to FAs Vape Wizard MTS and if you are don’t believe you missed out on much.

Yes! That’s the one…

Oh :frowning:

Saved me the disappointment of buying it then finding it sucked :slight_smile:

Maybe we could set up a thread for released recipes as a place holder so they can be posted and found in one spot rather than being peppered through existing or individual posts?

Excellent idea!

It doesn’t suck. It has a purpose if used correctly. It rounds out sharp edges in recipes by muting other flavors. You surely won’t need 50ml’s but it’s nice to have around to take edges off.

I didn’t say it sucked, Gazza did :slight_smile:

Oh wait, I did say it sucks :smirk:

Well, does it suck or doesn’t it?

I better question to ask, is whether it’s worth purchasing and using, or whether the results are too negligible to warrant ordering and adding to mixes?

Depends on the flavors you vape. Citrus is a offender for me. A little wizard at .5 percent and makes a recipe vape able without having to steep out those sharp edges. Too much wizard and it can mute a recipe.

I’ve gotta really get some so I can smell it, lick it and try it I spose.

Probably just tastes like PG though, I’ll assume.

I suppose they don’t indicate what’s actually in it?

You won’t need much. It a chemical that fools you’re taste buds in not tasting flavors. It’s classified as a additive not a flavor. You don’t need much.

I’ll have to get some and use it to know, but I wouldn’t mind knowing what’s it it.

Not because I’m worried or a health freak, but because I’d like to know how it works, and can’t know that without knowing what chemicals are doing that work :nerd_face:

Look it up on TPA’s site. It gives all the information you are asking about. Other flavor house’s have under a different name.

Alright.

Though it’s now 3:44AM, and the TPA site will only be the first stop since it’s not what the chemicals are I care about, but what they do and how they work.

*Edit: then again, being almost 4:00AM hasn’t stopped me just putting on some pasta to cook, for a quick, plain, easy snack of plain cooked pasta with 36-month reserve/aged tasty/cheddar cheese chunks tossed through until melted.

Yeah I dunno I just started thinking about it, then realized I wasn’t going to stop thinking about it until I’d had it.

The Dark and hungry beast strikes again, see :slight_smile:
