It is probably just confirmation bias! @Pro_Vapes does not want to have sold this kidney in vain
I donāt think it is fair to suggest commissions taking.
It took me a while to decide but until there are cheaper rebottles, I am not going there no matter how good. Also, there seems to be a few complaints about flavour stability which seem to be less common with VG based flavourings (as much as they also have a shelf life as well).
Iām sure he wonāt take me serious on that, was just a (bad) joke
Thatās of course every DIYerās choice. If you calculate the cost per ml of e-liquid, Iām sure you can find concentrates from CAP or TPA that are more expensive!
And Iām not looking for the cheapest flavors but the best. If I want to vape less, Iāll just add a little extra nic to my juice or get a good MTL kit.
I used to smoke a pack or more of Marlboro Reds. At todayās prices, thatās a whole bottle of MF concentrate every 2 or 3 days and Iām sure an MF bottle will last me a whole lot longer than a couple months.
If I like MF flavors, I might give the rebottles a try for the sake of comparing but without having the original as a reference I wouldnāt know what to compare it with.
Hey you! Youāre jumping the gun. Youāve gotta actually purchase your MF sample pack before you join the ELR MF sales team, you know! And then 50% of your commission goes to @Pro_Vapes . and 50% of his commission goes to @Ken_O_Where , the Daddy of us all. Blame the lot on Ken. Pro_Vapes does!
of course, this is why Ken doesnāt promote MF like he used to. Doesnāt need to. Just sits back and lets the commission roll in.

I get your logic, but I canāt personally justify everything with ābut the alternative would be more expensiveā
The problem is that I donāt really need to make 13.5*100/0.5 ml of whatever liquid (Iāll save you the computation, it is around 2.7L)
So I am just going to spend as much as a MF order on Flavorah instead, I am sure htere is logic somewhere.
Sometimes flavors can be expensive or totally out of range. I donāt use much flavoring that the rule of other flavors are more expensive in the long run would apply here. But then again always could save some bucks.
My problem is that you canāt do anything with 1 flavor most of the time, and mixing it with the regular brands does mostly not work very well.
So much I would like to try MF or even Flavorah, I just canāt afford it. Iāve picked up some FLV bottles here and there, but not a whole collection.
I mostly stick to flavors the āregularā community uses. Iām sure the other juices are better but ours aināt bad either
It took me a year to branch out and buy from a different company haha
And i was not disappointed! I actually just bought bano FA. Havent tried it yetā¦but its kind of a cool feeling to have so many options!
Oh I agree and I do even like the flv I bought, surely a difference but just not possible sometimes. I hate saying it but it is what it is.
I do like options and some brands are great as well, but with any of the brands I never find something 100%. Close tho but always have to add a different manufacturer. And thatās an issue at times. Example Flv wild melon even at 1 drop it overruns everything else thatās mixed with the regular brands. Even if I would, which I donāt set the other percentages at 10-15% lol.
Thatās probably why I havenāt commited to all flv recipes etc. either, but I would like experiencing that as well, so Iām planning on not purchasing flavors this and next month, and see if I can expand a little. Because to me thats impressive. Not trying to promote or bad mouth any brand here, just trying to explain what Iām looking for and how my experience is/was.
I do have quite a bit of FA but for me these are more disappointing.
Iām quite happy with my vape train flavors Iāve gotten, at least to me in comparison to cap/tfa/FW/pur they are a bit more potent and true to label. Important too me actually.
So options are amazing and Iām not saying stick with one brand, but some seem to work better than others lol
Iām also my own worst enemy when it comes to ordering flavors. I took advantage of Bull Cityās Memorial Day sale to restock on a few items Iām out of, and by the time Iāve got my cart built thereās 6-7 additional flavors that A) werenāt on my shopping list(Such a handy piece of code! Thanks, @daath!) and; B) Cost almost as much as the 12 that Iād originally gone to order! Whatās even worse, is I ordered them based off of a remembrance of someone mentioning the flavor in a thread I canāt remember or even find. GAH!!! What the hell am I gonna do with Avocado (FA) (FLV)?!?
I really gotta stop the late night Iāve-already-taken-pills shopping spreesā¦
EDIT: Changed from FlavourArt(FA) to Flavorah(FLV) Because obviously Iām a total dumbass and mistook one āFā vendor for another. The crack you may have heard far off in the distance was me facepalming myself into next week. In the immortal words of that great philosopher Homero,
I went by that lol. I got only one avocado and thatās from VT. I still havenāt made a recipe with it yet and still figuring out what i would do with it
Edit maybe his/her FA is meant for Flavor Apprentice? If they make it? Some vendors write that on the bottle and some mix it up with flavor art (FA) but I didnāt question it because I wasnāt surprised that FA would have made a avocado lol
Maybe (FA) stands for something else or is mixed up with FE or/and FLV , we will have to wait for @paingawd to tell us the actual company its purchased from
There were many bottles marked āFAā for Flavor Apprentice (TPA). In the DIY handbook I think thatās like item #5 and everyoneās first mistake loading up their Flavor Stash
Me neither, TBH
My MF will be long past their āuse byā and I might well be in my grave before I can seriously claim that Iāve saved any money by using my ā¦ummmā¦errrā¦ 28 flavours of pure MF (plus 20 BE, but some of those are duplicates) as compared to less concentrated flavours.
.
But hey! Iām enjoying them more and it still saves one heck of a lot of dosh , as compared to smoking
I tried and tried with many mixers recommendations and itās been more miss than hit. I started doing my research into the companies directly to find the quality producers.
Hands down Wonder Flavours has been my best collection with many single flavor winners.
Peach Pie and cream is layered with fruit, crust butter and rich cream. Gushy Fruit is a flavor bomb. Green Jolly candy is a perfect Jolly Rancher Green Appleā¦
The ratio is about 8 to 10 on winners.
There are others too, like Flavor Apprentice and Flavor West that provide me with many good recipes with 3 or less ingredients.
As always though, taste is subjective and one should objectively decide whatās good to them without trying to force the like because of high praise from others.
Yet more proof that Iām my own worst enemy when it comes to ordering flavors: Just got my Bull City order in on Friday, and in my haste I mistakenly ordered 30 ml of DX Bavarian Cream(TPA) instead of the V1 with all of its DA/AP creamy goodness. DRAT!!! Guess Iām gonna be making the switch to diketone-free juices after allā¦
