submitted over 7 years ago by supersockeye

nicotine river stopped carrying nicselect and now has purnic, has anyone tried this and done a review? I'm trying to find more info on it but nothing comes up but their company page. Not going to order some unknown nic so any info appreciated, thanks all.

I wanted to inform you that we are unable to offer the NicSelect product going forward. We’ve been awaiting shipment of two open orders of pure nicotine from NicSelect to arrive. However, we were informed last week from NicSelect, they will not be making any new shipments to us, despite their prior promises to do so. After a long relationship with NicSelect, during which time we helped promote the NicSelect brand, we find NicSelect's actions extremely unprofessional. We believe that in the end we are better off without NicSelect and we will continue to blaze our own trail in this Industry.

As far as PurNic, this brand was created to solve a lot of issues we had in the past with old suppliers. At this point, I can firmly and confidently say I have seen it all in regards to quality, stocking and just all around business practices. Moving forward PurNic will be our bread and butter. We orchestrated a constant and quality driven supply chain of product for PurNic so no consumer or business has an issue again. All documentation any would need either as consumer or business will be available by the end of this week. Pricing will also be significantly less due to fact that we now control the tobacco that gets purchased, to how its extracted etc. For once the ball is in our court and we are no longer at mercy of other suppliers.

As for the other brands on our website, you will see even more shortly. Chemnovatic, CNT, Amerinic, Glass, PurNic are just the beginning. We are well aware of what people sell these products for online and you will see significant savings across all brands we carry moving forward. Our goal is to make where it doesn't make sense to shop anywhere else.

I hope this helps and there will be more information to come through our newsletter email will be sent tomorrow mid-afternoon.

Thank you!

Great, I'll be the guinea pig=)

I love how fast you got it shipped out. Looking forward to testing it. The last time I bought nic was when Vape Clarity was around, and if this is on par with that I'll be a happy customer.

I'll follow up in this thread next week after I titrate and try some unflavored.

So what's the verdict with the new brand of nic through nicotine river? I haven't found much info from people other than "it's good". Hoping for a little more insight especially on their Nic Salts as the last batch of Salts from NicRiver was not good, tasted like old burning tires.

/u/Foment_life asked at the same time, so I'll answer both.

Bottom line: I don't know yet, waiting on my 3rd shipment from them. They haven't gotten it right yet. I'll update next week, Tues or Weds.

My first purchase from them will probably be my last. Customer service is....lacking. First they shipped Fedex, which is so slow for me. Bottle was labelled Nicselect, not Purenic. It titrated correctly and is clear, and not bad tasting per-se. But def not as clean tasting as my 2 year old nic in the freezer.

They immediately said they would replace the 500ml with the new brand, but what they sent me was a replacement for the 60ml of salt nic. Which I had already told them was good and I was happy with that. It also said Nicselect, but it's pretty clean tasting.

So now I'm waiting on what they SAY is 500ml of Purenic, should come Tues

I should have followed my own advice and stuck with Carolina, or even Nude......

Hey, any chance you have an update? I'd love to hear from someone who's tried it before throwing down the coin myself.

Looks like they dropped NicSelect in favor of PurNic but beyond marketing speak and assurance of EU compliance I don't see any real information about them as a source (and I've never seen the name prior to this)

But even more interesting is that in their nicotine drop down menu they have 5 nic sources, as if you will eventually have them all as options for purchase (sans NicSelect)

I've only used 1 of the 4 new choices but if/when they start selling Chemnovatic nic I will definitely be trying it to see if they maintain the same quality as other resellers like Heartland and VapersTek, especially if they have a lower price point.

If they could beat Heartland's $82 liter bottle with free shipping I would be surprised.

I think it's cool they have options but chemnovatic is the best price for quality nicotine, imo. I'm honestly surprised so many people still like sticking with nicselect as it's very much a budget nicotine.

I took a chance. If it doesn't pan out then I'll try the LB nic. I have seen it get good mention.

I know recently they were talking about using other nicotine sources but last I heard they had nicselect. Nothing wrong with their nicotine it just isn't as smooth as chemnovatic is to me.

I just ordered 500ml, so I'll let you know soon. Fingers crossed that it titrates correctly, and is smooth.

As anyone tried the PurNic salts? I’m trying to find out the differences between the “hit” and “smooth”
