so.....i ordered on tuesday; THIS tuesday, to be specific.
mostly smaller bottles, of the 15-30mL sort. but i did get one 120mL bottle of Raspberry Blue Slush, which was the main reason i even visited their site in the first place. When i saw they made blends, i definitely bought one of each except for the tobacco one. sorry, it's just not my thing.
It....It's ALREADY here. it went from colorado, to my office in atlanta. it got here this morning. i immediately messaged my buddy something along the line of 'flavoringsssss yassssss. ordered on tuesday HOW IS THIS ALREADY HERE. new favorite flavoring company'.
but WAIT! There's MORE!
i open the box...too excited to see what raspberry slush smells like....and i see something on the top.
These clever souls had no idea that i had just eaten my last piece of candy at the office. Sitting on top of the packing peanuts, is a bag. What's in this bag?
- two pipettes
- Nitrile Gloves
- HARIBO FREAKING GUMMY BEARS
- Lifesaver Gummies
That's right, they sent me gummy bears and more gummy bears. i am now in heaven.
Did i mention they also used glass for the 120mL bottle of slush?
TL;DR
I got gummies, pipettes, and nitrile gloves to go with my order. whaaaat. oh, and the 120mL of Raspberry Slush came in a glass bottle. New favorite vendor. YOU RULE OSDIY!
Wait until you try their blends. Both I tried were awful.
They are way way overpriced for me to ever give them a try but others seem to like them.
True. But they did recently drop their prices on a lot of their offerings, which brought them in line with the more popular flavor vendors. They're decent for someone starting out, because their smaller sizes are comparably priced and some of their exclusive offerings are good for standalone mixes.
That said their prices on larger sizes is still higher and their selection is limited overall (although they are the only place I've found Health Cabin flavors available)
Some of OSDIY is not to bad. I order from them on a semi regular basis due to them processing and shipping rather quickly.
Early in my DIY adventure I went to them to get some nice premixed flavors to see if it was going to work for me.
I bought 120ml of Arnold Palmer, their strawberry milk flavor, and choco yum cake.
I also picked up their 30ml cinnamon roll flavor and another flavor 30ml cinnamon smoothie. I made all these decisions based on the reviews on the site.
Let me tell you that cinnamon smoothie is disgusting it tasted like red hots rubbed on a vanilla scented candle.
Cinnamon roll was mentioned in the comments as being good, and that is mostly true. For a first time mixer it has good flavor, but to me it has a heavy syrup taste, might as well be cinnamon french toast with syrup. Not a bad flavor but very overpowering syrup.
Arnold Palmer is really good for a single mix. I have never had an issue with it other than some saying the lemonade was overpowering.
Their strawberry milk flavor is ok, not good, not great, but I will still mix a nice 8% mix and enjoy it after a few days of steeping.
Choco yum cake....
Choco yum cake is atrocious, I think they ordered too many of a particular set of flavors and in order to get rid of the extra, they mixed something that could fool a novice DIYer as a full flavor. If you came into the game after the bronuts craze this flavor will make you sad, its not you, its the flavor. Personally this is almost unvapable.
However, I will continue to order from them because of their fast shipping and customer service. I let them know about the travesties of cinnamon smoothie and Choco yum cake in the comments of one order, and they sent me some extra samples to experiment with to be able to create a usable combination. I've moved down from 6 mg/ml to zero nicotine in that time and have still yet to make something out of those particular flavors.
But please, order your flavors from them, you will get them quickly and their customer service is excellent.
Plus,the little zip lock baggie of gloves, pipettes and candy is always a nice bonus. My last ones had nice mini Crunch Bars in them.
Edit: I also got the blue slush one, that is good as a standalone. I like it more with 5%slush/5%TPA gummy candy.
