Poor Australian here, looking for a cheap juice solution.
submitted almost 6 years ago by dmaho123

I'm currently buying 100ml bottles of pre-made juice from China for around $15, the problem is sometimes postage takes longer than expected and I have to buy juice locally for $10/10ml.
Are there any Aussies in this sub that have found a cheap supplier for nicotine and mixers?
How much are you paying?

PS. Apple flavor and 12mg or more nicotine is what I'm hoping to make.

Thanks in advance.

I see from your history that you're not all that keen on postage costs from New Zealand. At VapoureyesNZ I buy 2x 500ml bottles of their 100mg nicotine which puts you over the postage threshhold, so you get FREE DHL delivery. The DHL option is a must. It's still a bit expensive but the nicotine is great and their service and delivery are excellent. Then just get all your concentrates/PG/VG from Australia.

Is this the one you buy? "100mg-flavourless-nicotine"

They are sold out, how much does it usually cost you?

Yes I buy the 100mg PG freebase nicotine - and you're right it looks like they're currently out of stock. Shoot them an email to see when they're getting more in. It's in Kiwi dollars, but from memory about $140?

Best take that link down (rule 10 in the sidebar).

The way I do it, is... I buy 1l of pre-made unflavored juice from social_lites or Hiliq.

I choose the pg/ vg ratio and the nic %.

That cost me with postage some 70$aus. And it arrives within a week.

That lasts me months.

I buy the concentrates from our aussie vendors... Mostly from vaporeyes or juice factory.

I do not do any complex recipes just one or tow flavours.

I been doing it for years.

It is simple and cheap.

The best solutions to make your own juice. I make 250 ml bottle each time I make my own badge and it cost a little less than seven bucks to make. The juice is good enough to sell for 80 to $100. USD. I don't know if you guys can purchase your own nicotine solution over there, but you get a hundred mg per milliliter nicotine, some flavor Apprentice flavorings, a couple Loranns look for recipes written online and you should be golden. I did the very first DIY e-juice video on YouTube and it's just as valid as it was then. Even though it was back when sub ohm vaping is not a thing, it still works if you flip the PG VG ratio. Take the principle behind it not the actual recipe LOL. Honestly you're missing out on better juice, fresher juice, and tons of Cheaper volumes of juice.

Actually mate, after a bit of a look around I think you should have a gander at Hiliq. Looks like they provide good quality nicotine, and it's only $78.65 for 1L (plus delivery) of 100mg PG freebase. I might try Hiliq for my next order.

I get my 200mg from Hiliq, with the recent free shipping it was something like AU140 for 1L and I got in under a week

Nice - what do you mix your 200mg down to for general mixing?

I buy 200mg from hiliq. Just mix it as is. .9ml for 60ml bottle of 0mg to make 3mg. Usually fits without removing juice. I buy 250ml at a time. It oxidizes reasonably fast compared to 100mg freebase.

Recently I’ve been buying the smaller 100ml bottles as the 250 has the cap glued on tight and is a pain to open up. With the 100ml bottle I transfer into a 30ml dropper bottle. It’s so easy and no mess, I don’t bother with gloves anymore.

I buy nicotine from my freedom vapes, a litre at a time, it's good and pretty cheap and lasts a while. Flavours/hardware from either wick and wire or vapoureyes, but if there's a specific flavour I can't get or want to buy bulk I ship it over from gremlin diy, I've never had any trouble with any of them BUT I would recommend vapoureyes because they send out cat facts with their orders so they win.

I buy nicotine from LNW in the US @100 Mg which makes it very easy to mix.

I then buy cheap juice from Aust and add nic. SVS range is $16.90/120 mls (Pineapple, strawberry and raspberry are all very good).

Big vapes have a $5 Friday deal every week with $7 flat shipping - buy as much as you want. Their Mango is nice. Big Vapes juice benefit a lot from steeping.

DIY is cheaper again.

Thanks! I have a SVS store nearby, should save the $10 postage!

An additional tip - call ahead and find out if they have the juice you want in stock - if not, ask them to order in for you.

FWIW, I like the SVS RY4. The salted caramel is ok but not great - maybe I just don't like non-fruit. The peach is almost perfect but has a little soapy aftertaste. The coffee is a strong coffee - it could use some sort of cream to make it more cappuccino rather than espresso.

I have the Mango but have not tried it yet. I suspect it will be good. Single fruit flavours seem to be easy to do well.

Can you specify which Chinese site you buy nic-salts from?. Looks like I have to go the same route as you. Thanks in advance.

Mixology vapes in NZ. 2 bottles of 250ml 100mg nic is under $100 landed. You then cut it down and flavour yourself. Buy flavour from there and get your pg/VG locally.
