I use Liquid Barn for ALL my bases and Nic needs. Hands down the best in the business! And they have the best Vanilla Ice Cream Flavoring on the market IMO, check out the blue razz too if you haven't. Fast shipping, never had anything leaking and I have never had an incorrect order, ever. I can't say the same for others...
I stick with Liquid Barn!
Prices: Good prices for products and free shipping over $50.
Selection: All their flavors are easy to use to mix with. They taste how they sound. I think some of their suggested percentages are too high. I use them at a lower percentage. They have the best one shots on the market though.
Shipping time: Their shipping is great. I am in CA so its expected to have good transit time, but what I am measuring is the amount of time it takes for them to process and ship my orders, which has always been 1-2 days.
Customer Service: The customer service is the best I’ve had in any industry, not just vaping. Whether its questions about my order or just general questions. Shout out to Bobby!
Order Problems: N/A
Packaging: No problems with the packaging. They used to use packing peanuts (which a lot of vendors do), but Liquid Barn is one of the only companies to start using something that’s not as messy and annoying.
Overall: I love Liquid Barn and recommend them to anyone interested in DIY or saving money on eLiquid. Great selection, great prices, and great customer service. 9/10
Liquid Barn is great and has excellent customer service. I always look to them first when shopping for DIY supplies. They package everything safely, and ship out pretty quickly too.
However, I had an issue with their nicotine salt base. I am satisfied with how they resolved the issue for me, but I've seen other people on this subreddit mentioning similar issues with their salt specifically, so I want to detail my experience here.
I bought one liter of 100mg nicotine salt VG base which came in two 500ml bottles. The base in both of the bottles arrived completely clear and odorless (no evidence of oxidation), however I tested unflavored liquid made from each of the two 500ml bottles separately, and both seemed to be gunking my coils very quickly. The cotton was black after just 1ml vaped. Even the sweetest commercial juices at 50mg and don't gunk up that quickly.
There was also a sour, solvent-like taste which increased in intensity as the coil quickly gunked up.
My test liquid was unflavored and unsweetened at 20mg/ml, 70vg 30pg. I was vaping it at 11w in a Kayfun Lite 2019 with a 1.2 ohm coil.
I let them know, and they quickly responded saying they would check the batch and test it themselves. I never heard back on their test results and I eventually requested a refund. I was given store credit for the price of the nicotine base.
Liquid Barn and BCF is all I use. Both companies are great. I get my bases, nicotine and one shots from LB and other flavors I need from BCF. I’ve tried other companies for Nic and bases, but LB was the best quality I found. I got shit before saying even their VG seemed to work better when vaped. People saying there’s no way to tell the difference between VGs. But I stand by it. I can taste a difference. 9.5/10 for LB.
I bought my first PG/VG pre-mix base and their scale kit. Great value, timely shipping and great communication from them via transaction emails and updates. Their flavors are okay place to start, but found other vendors offer better prices and sales/specials to test out new recipes.
Over all; LB is a great place to start your DIY journey because they're a great value and good company.
Ever since I found Liquid barn, I have been recommending them to vapers and DIYers. I don't think I'll stop anytime soon. They have the best product (IMO), consistent, and amazing customer service. Even during the corona virus pandemic, they got my order to me sooner than any company i ordered from (non-vaping companies). 10/10 across the board.
Very good and top notch vendor that rounds out my personal top 3 in DIY (domestically). Their bases are good prices and if you wait for a sale are one of if not the cheapest vendor around. Technically, they’re a one stop shop, tho I’ve only seen their house brand being sold which I haven’t tried yet. Fortunately I haven’t had to contact customer service as I’ve only made a couple of orders from them, but have heard good things.
For newbs or lazy people, they have a pre-mixed base available including a bottle with fill lines, which are not *that * much of a premium for those who are interested. Should note they’re in California for shipping and taxing purposes.
Unless I’m blind, surprised to see they don’t even have a Memorial Day sale, when they’re one of the few vendors to frequently have sales and with what usually seems to be the biggest discount. Regardless, I wouldn’t hesitate ordering from liquid barn.
I think this was the first place I ordered from when I was starting up just a month or so ago.
They still had VG in stock and their prices were good (when it was apparently going out of stock or increasing in price a lot of places), and they were the only place I could find anywhere that carried the AWS scale.
Best part was their customer service, though.
There was a 15% promo code going around and I had my cart ‘stewing’ for a couple days. When I went to complete the purchase the scale was out of stock, and it was the last day for the promo code.
Literally the next day it was back in stock so I called CS and I spoke with Bobby(?) who was hands down one of the best CSRs I’ve ever dealt with. I mentioned that the code had expired the day before and I had held off on the order because of the scale, and he said he could do the same discount for the complete order.
He went through the order line by line over the phone and said he would need to send me an invoice email to submit payment.
He even called me before his shift was over and he was leaving to make sure I got the email and I could access the invoice.
Awesome CS and I look forward to using them again!
Totally legit.

word on the street is they aren't shipping to NY anymore. Can someone confirm this? If this is true, I'm not buying their shit anymore.
Liquid Barn didn't make shit illegal in NY. Cuomo getting another pass. Kills your grandparents and takes away your ejuice. Fuck Liquid Barn.
