Just got a shipment from Wizard Labs no fun at all. The nicotine looks like it spilled in the bag that contained the bottle. Ok send a picture to wizard Labs. http://imgur.com/gallery/ougvGJm. They told me this is normal and its just condensation and to open the bottle. There was like a good 10 ml in the bag.. I broke the seal but it was hard to tell if it was just broke a little to leak out of bottle I already had a fucking mess on my hands. Open the bottle smells of ammonia/cat piss although it is clear. I vaped a test batch it has a slight peppery taste/mild ammonia taste to it. It's not terrible but not great either. Called them this time told them the issue and they tell me its normal to have condensation and taste is subjective. She then tells me to just deal with it. I told her I placed an order shortly after this one and its arriving Thursday. I just kind of fed up at this point I really hope that order isn't like the first. She did tell me to compare the 2 orders and get back to them. She kind of just blew me off. The last order I got from liquid barn had no smell what so ever and was packaged real nice bottle shipped upright. Wizard Labs shipped this bottle on its side wtf.
I've never encounted an ammonia taste or smell and I've been ordering strictly from wizards for ~3 years. Usually everything comes packaged right as well.
The peppery taste is normal. If you've ever had nicotine gum its also very peppery. Be sure you are thouroughly shaking up your nicotine before mixing. You can get "hot pockets" of concentrated nic if you arent careful.
That sounds like a preposterous response. I’d simply let them know that if your next order arrives I’m the same condition you’ll be reaching out to your card services to have it rectified. At this point that’s a hazardous bag you’re holding. I’m not one to chargeback but I also won’t pay for something that’s clearly not usable.
This might be a bit late for you but I had a recent package come to me like that with river supply. Sent an email and picture and they sent me out a new package the same day. I just received the replacement today. I've never heard of condensation being on the outside of a nic bottle before.
I've gotten VG with some spillage but its bagged and you know its VG.
I've never received nicotine that way. It's always sealed with foil, packed with nitrogen, and the cap is always ridiculously tight. I've ordered from four suppliers. Never had that type of issue. Condensation is bullshit. The bottle was leaking, oxygen has made plenty of contact with your nic. Never had anything peppery unless the batch was bad. Even some basic stuff from LNW.
Sounds like they're being assholes and just dont really want to deal with customers or returns considering the circumstances.
I sample all my nicotine in a basic VG, PG, nic mix. Last order from LB, River Supply, and LNW were tasteless.
Do you use 100mg/ml? I've never had tasteless nicotine in my life.
I had the same problem from nude nic! My first order also. It actually got on my hand before I realized it was leaking. Made me a little sick. I emailed them with no response. I put it into ziplock bags and put it right in the freezer but now what? Can I divide this up into a couple smaller bottles and hope for the best? What do you guys think??
you put the Nic into ziplock bags and not bottles??
No I left it in the bottle it was in....plus the bag that was around it and also put another around that. I put it in the freezer to decide what to do next. I tried emailing them. Now, I don’t know if I should just take it out and break the nic down into smaller bottles for storage like I was originally going to do or not. I was wondering if it is going to be ok since it has def been exposed to air and I’m trying to keep this for a long time in the freezer. It was 500 ml.
Just an FYI: I just got a 120 ml bottle of 60 mg nicotine in PG from DIY-Ejuice. The bottle was sealed inside a vacuum packed bag and was laying on it's side in the box: there was no "leakage" or "condensation". I've decanted the nicotine into smaller bottles and have already used some in a mix: the liquid is clear, no taste and no odor.
The worst nic I have ever tasted was wl...but taste is subjective i guess. Cat piss and pepper is the perfect description, as you said. Since Vapers Tek closed, I have been on the hunt for a good quality, no pepper nic. I think I have tried them all at this point except carolina extract...i will be ordering from them and hope for the best before the ban
