Christmas In July: B&M With a DIY Section
submitted about 10 years ago by faganisty

One of the b&m shops in my town is starting to devote a small portion of their shop to all things DIY. Flavor concentrates, vg/pg, bottles, mixing tools etc. For ridiculously reasonable prices. I was wary about it when I heard but I went to check it out and it seems pretty legit to me. They're gonna fully stock three or four big name US flavor manufacturers so except for my weird fringe flavors and nicotine I'll never have to pay shipping again. I may have just died and gone to heaven.

Should have added that to the FA Joy Group Buy order I guess...It's easy enough to buy bulk from INW direct if you have an EIN...

Think we could move 2-3 liters? =)

$5.00 for a 15ml ($0.333/ml)
$9.00 for a 30ml ($0.30/ml)
$27.00 for a 120ml ($0.225/ml)

BCV is $3.49 for a 10ml ($0.349/ml) (no other sizes) when they have it in stock...

I'll evaluate more thoroughly tomorrow and see if I can add this to the FA Joy group buy ... waive additional shipping charges obviously (and Inawera ships orders within 48 hours of payment IME).

okay, I'm actually asking for group pressure on this. How much will I be kicking myself if I don't order INW Biscuit during the group buy? Custards and fruits rule the house in terms of eliquid-- is INW Biscuit really that good?

Not really IMO but like many other flavors it has its place.

Not gonna bother, too much effort co-ordinating these group buys and wife is all over my ass to get the nursery finished.

So do you want to be the big spoon or the little spoon?

I almost ended up pming you a day or two ago about this. I ended up getting it from inawera. 100ml for 27.49 isn't terrible, but 27 for 120 would've been better. Oh well.

What?! !? You are so lucky!

I've been wondering why more places haven't caught onto this to fulfill the need. I'd happily pay more than online prices to get something today.

Now I have to ask: where are you?

Cause even at ridiculous mark up, they make very little on it and require a much larger inventory to be effective compared to stocking and selling juice to the public. On top of that, the market is much much much smaller locally.

Only way it really makes sense for a retail shop to offer DiY supplies is two possibilities.

1.) They make their own juice in house and aren't opposed to having large stock of flavors they don't use in current lines.
2.) They have a reasonable online presence for DiY supplies and offer retail to pair with the rest of their business.

Ok, now I really need to know where. I've been to 6 different IE B&Ms so far, and they all sucked (except for one that was ok-ish).

Temecula Area. Rippin Vapor off the 15 freeway. They make all their juices in house.
