Hi everyone!
I was originally going to post this in a sale thread, but since DIY_classifieds doesn't exist anymore I decided to give some stuff away to someone looking to get into DIY.
I don't remember what all I have at the moment, but there are atleast 10 flavorings from all the major suppliers like capella, flavor west, etc. Off the top of my head I can think of the following flavors:
-
strawberry
-
blueberry crumble
-
beetle juice
-
raspberry
-
whipped cream
-
vanilla swirl
-
mandrin
-
cotton candy
-
grahm cracker
-
key lime
-
and more!
There is definately more than enough to make a few bottles of juice. You could probably make atleast (10) 60ml bottles. I will include the tiny bit of VG I have, but you will probably have to buy more VG, as well as PG and nicotine yourself. All flavors are PG based and were purchased around 6mo ago.
I want these to go to someone just starting out who hasn`t made their own juice before. Just comment something and ill pick someone at random, and if your post history checks out (no throwaways), then you get it. Ill even cover shipping too! (U.S only).
Update: Thanks everyone for the nice comments and for participating! A winner has been selected. Congratulations to /u/letice721! Hope you enjoy the flavorings!

Man, this is incredibly generous of you. I'm always surprised by the amount of good people on this sub.
I would absolutely love to start making my own juice, but I spent all my extra cash on getting first time setups for my sister and brother in law so they could quit smoking (which they did, thankfully). The flavors you listed are some of my (and my family's) favorites too so they would definitely get used if I got ahold of them!
Regardless of who you end up choosing, this is a very cool thing you're doing and I seriously appreciate it.
I’ve been wanting to get into making my own vape juice for a while (once my current supply is out) and was actually surprised by the juice I bought on classifieds, inspiring me to make my own. My juice will certainly be branded Vlad The Inhaler. That is all
Thanks for this awesome giveaway man! I'm definitely looking to get into DIY, I'm in college so money's pretty tight and from what I understand DIY eJuice isn't that hard to make. I've thought about it before, but I never knew what I needed to get started, so even if I don't win I'd love to hear what supplies I need to start.
You can find out what you need to start, as well as other things you need to know if you will read the sidebar. You will see "My first order flavors", diy beginners guide, and other stuff that will be helpful to you. There are a lot of excellent mixers here who will help you so much-IF you help yourself. If you ask questions that are easy to find the answers to yourself, they don't tend to be as helpful. It's kinda like don't take advantage-help yourself first, then ask. Enjoy mixing-but whoever told you it wasn't very hard probably isn't a mixer. There's quite a learning curve!:)
Sidebar has some great info but very breifly to make juice you need PG, VG, nicotine concentrate (never pure nicotine), and flavor concentrates. For equipment a scale, syringes, beakers, opaque glass bottles, goggles, and nitrite gloves are reccomended.
Lots of great calculators online as well as recipes to try. I have a few simple recipes (mostly fruits and cremes/custard) bookmarked for when I can finally scrape up enough cash to start diy-ing. Feel free to message me and I'll send them over!
Holy shit!
Ive been trying to save up money to get started but bills and other expenses have always taken priority. Even buying my own DIY from others is getting to become too unpredictable with my expenses piling up haha.
If there is anyway u can help out, that would be amazing!
Thank u so much for the chance! I seriously appreciate it!
nice man. I just placed a $100 dollar order from nic river. I couldn't check out though because their site wouldn't process my shipping address overseas. I ended up using my friend's address and the staff helped me build a cart and provided an invoice. I will be buying from them from now on, they're awesome.
anyway, the only mistake I made with my order is I assumed vanilla custard v1 (CAP) could be used in place of (TPA). oh, well. I'm still confident the mix will be vapeable.
I think I'm the candidate you're looking for in your giveaway. I haven't mixed yet but subscribing to r/DIY_ejuice is the best thing I've done. these guys know their shit and have a super resourceful side bar. I've got Boston rounds, funnels, a liter of VG among other things on the way and could never have prepared my first order without the help of the community here. for example, initially I wanted to mix by volume and most people quite bluntly straight up told me "don't". it kind of rubbed me the wrong way at first and almost made me abandon this sub entirely. but now that I know now what I didn't know then is they were just simply telling the truth, no if and's or but's .
I'm going into this new hobby because where I live nic isn't allowed to be sold at brick & mortars. two of the shops skirted the law and offered nic by delivery. my main source offered it on site as long as you kept it on the hush-hush. but their sister store recently got busted so they don't offer nic at all except by delivery. my problem is I can't access the delivery location easily. (you can PM me if you want the details). also, I've introduced 2 other smokers to vaping and amazingly 1 guy is rebuilding like myself. unfortunately we're all back on cigarettes again. for me it's been a little over a year since buying my mod that got me off the analogs so I'm pretty bummed out about my situation and my journey to rid myself of the cancer sticks. DIY is my plan to prolong the effort and my friends all pitched in for the first order. I'm nervous because I feel obligated to mix something vapeable for them. personally, I'll vape anything so I don't see me pouring bad batches down the drain. as recommended by another user here I wanted to get some 5ml bottles for sampling but nic river's smallest bottle is 30ml. no biggie. I'm pretty confident my first shake and vape will be delicious as long as I stay subbed on r/DIY_juice . you don't have to choose me for your giveaway either. just know that if you do you'll honestly be jump starting a potential new mixer in me and can't really get flavoring like you all in the states. apparently things just can't be put on air freight. currently I've got 27 flavors and 2 additives in-bound. I think that's more than enough to get started. and I've got recipes saved on ELR. If you hook me up know that your flavors will be put to good use. thx for reading
*Edit- I'm overseas but my shipping address is considered lower 48 states.
Woah!!! Amazing. Thanks for doing this. Good luck to everyone. I've been meaning to get into it and haven't based on fear of start up costs and failing at making it.
Hey man - never made any juice before but have been cigarette free for two months now thanks to my vape! I've been researching how to make my own juice and think what you're doing here is awesome. Thanks for the chance at receiving a few items to help me out. This is an awesome community.
There's some porn and subnautica in my post history, but I'm certainly interested in making my own juices. Even if I don't get chosen, where is a good place to get a starter set?
Its all good man, im only checking post history to make sure you arent already an avid DIY`er. Good luck!
nic river was almost where I bought a starter kit. 1 liter of VG or 500ml VG and PG, your choice, 48mg/ml nic if you want it, X15 10ml flavors, and an assortment of bottles, beakers, pipettes, etc ready to go for a mix by volume newby for $50 bucks. I actually didn't go with the set but instead bought everything I actually needed and would actually use to mix by weight. the money I saved let me buy twice as many flavors and additives
Damn man, this would be tremendous. I've been wanting to get into DIY for a while but haven't had the funds to do anything beyond one pure vanilla custard recipe that a friend passed to me because he didn't enjoy it. Thanks for the offer, no matter how it works out.
I made a reddit account just so i could comment under this reddit post because i just ordered the diy starter kit off of liquid barn and im definitely gonna have a few screwups, your definitely generous as all these others have said. Goodluck boys. And thank you Bosski
This is so awesome. There are so many people (myself included) who are right on the fence about getting into diy but are put off by the startup cost. It's people like you who make this community great! Good luck everyone, and congrats to whoever gets it!
I got 2 friends to pitch in. we each put in $40 bucks. our next order will be cheaper because I'll already have my mixing gear
Just graduated uni last week, student debt is killer. I would love to give back like this, once I can afford my own stuff. It warms my little ramen filled heart to see members helping each other out like this, especially for people who are just getting started.
If only I had friends to order with me haha. I'm looking at $100+ just to get my feet wet.
Holy cow! I was thinking of getting into diy juice and have been just delaying the inevitable switch. Would be sweet getting some flavors and being able to experiment some before I blast away some money towards diy. Good luck to everyone and I hope whomever gets it makes some good juice!
I'd love to get into making juice if you could spare some flavorings, between me and my mom whose in on a fixed income, I'm spending almost $200-250+ a month on pre-made juice.
thats what 600ml a month in juice?
^^*calculation ^^based ^^on ^^prices ^^for ^^fluid ^^in ^^my ^^area ^^of ^^the ^^USA
Planning on starting my own diy sometime this next week. Free flavours would definately help as I am 100% unsure on the flavours I would want to order anyway and would set me up to figure that out (:
