$48.99 for a gallon of VG AND a gallon of PG on Amazon right now

submitted about 9 years ago by MealReadytoEat_

It's Essential Depots USP 99.8+% glycerin and 99.9+ PG, what I've always used with no issues. Free shipping, but not Amazon prime.

2 gallons of 50/50 for less than $50!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00Z2CC7Q6/

(I'm not shilling, not even a referral Link)

Edit - the supplier, Essential Depot, has a 60% off sale going on on their site, way cheaper than this even, $48 for 4 gallons of VG or PG in any combination, (shipping is $10-$20) they also have containers real cheap too! Thank u/simlet for pointing this out!

I can get 4 gallons for 62.40 which includes shipping directly from their site. Not sure how that is a good deal from Amazon?

Are you sure that includes shipping?

Yea, it's $48 prior to shipping, was $68 something afterwards for me, using their %20 off shipping code (requires a $5 a month subscription charge that also comes with some other discounts, I saved $2 net by paying it then canceling)

I can get a 550 lb drum of VG for $292.05. How is 4 gallons for $62.40 a good deal, bro?

5 gallons drums are insanely cheap on bulk apothecary...

by wh1skeyk1ngabout 9 years agoThanks for reading this flair

Not to mention their gallons are a lot cheaper than this, and you can use "savings10" to get 10% off your order. I ordered a gallon of each from them a while back for just under $43 delivered. Shipping was nearly $16 of that cost, but still a better way to go IMO.

I thought about it......How does one transfer out of a 5 gallon bucket without a mess though.

Funnels. On/off valve with tubing rigged up. Dumping it in a hopper for distribution.

Personally I use the 5 gallon orange igloo drink coolers with the push spout at the bottom!

by sunburndabout 9 years ago

That is a good idea. I've got spigot on hand from my home brew setup. Perhaps a food grade bucket and a drill bit would work.

I've got a month or so to think about it in the mean time:)

Am I being crazy for thinking that's expensive? I buy a gallon of VG for £10 in the UK from Darkstar.

Thought that myself, they don't deliver any more than 2 litres at a time to Northern Ireland unfortunately.

What's with these prices? Where I live the normal price is around $10 for a gallon of VG.

Essential depot switched to palm oil vg if anyone cares

Why is palm not good?

1 points

by uxpabout 9 years ago

Production of oil palm has increased rainforest deforestation in places like Indonesia and Malaysia, which is driving populations of wild animals, like Orangutans, into endangered and extinction statuses.

If you care about that sort of thing, it's a pretty shitty situation.

edit: The second part of this VICE episode gives a decent account of what's happening in some places w/r/t palm production. http://www.vice.com/video/watch-our-hbo-episode-about-the-search-for-powerful-anti-bacterial-compounds-in-the-jungle

Thank you for the informative link! I'll check it out tomorrow after work.

So do you have info that points to soy and coconut derived VG being less harmful to the environment?
