I’ve been hounding my husband about stocking up but it got put off and put off and now I’m not sure who is still in business or where to go. I’ve seen a couple places that seem to be price gouging. I’m not even sure how much it’s “supposed” to cost to stock up. Assuming I want a few years worth of nic and I only vape at 3mg, I’m wondering where I should go and what price range I should be looking for. Any ideas or suggestions?
Alot of people have ordered nicotine after most reputable sellers have stopped selling. Quite a few of those people have been displeased with what they receive and dont seem to understand that if they receive a bad batch that these less than reputable vendors are less likely to make it right at a cost to them.
If you order mid to late October up until March you're more likely to receive a good batch. Hot weather is more likely to result in oxidized nicotine. Cold weather means you're more likely to receive nicotine in perfect condition.
I'm ultimately saying if youre going to use perfectvape or nicotine giant or whatever do so during the cold months. You're far less likely to regret your purchase.
Edit - You could also ask your local shop to order you nicotine and then pay a handling fee of sorts. It's an option that may or may not work out, but if you really want LiquidBarn nic or something.
The only other way would be to have access to a commercial address, and nic vendors may or may not ship to p.o. boxes regardless of it being commercial or not.
I’m just worried that something is gonna happen to make it impossible to get before then, like the mail ban.
If you get a good relationship going with your local store, it's pretty trivial for them to order nic for you. My B&M said they would, but when I told them I had 2 gallons of 100mg in the freezer they said: "Umm, sure. If we are in business 10 years from now, and the laws are the same, we can help you out. You should be fine until then."
I'm still tempted to get another gallon.
I definitely would. I’m just not sure where. The places I’m looking at that are listed here on the sub either don’t have nicotine listed on their site, it says they only sell to businesses or there’s no pricing. Im so scared that a mail ban is gonna happen before I get this figured out.
The mail ban has absolutely nothing to do with nicotine. Anyone changing policies, or refusing to ship nic is simply doing so because they don't want the hassle. It has nothing to do with any law. Even before the whole mail ban was a thing, many companies were already refusing to ship nic to me in NY. There is also no law preventing nic sales in NY, only finished liquid, and weed carts.
That being said, I've ordered from Perfect Vape a few times in recent months, and the nic has always been solid. PV is leaps and bounds above Nicotine Giant from what I understand. I wouldn't order anything but nic from them, customer service leaves something to be desired. But their nic is solid, they ship fast, and the price is right. A vendor's integrity is often what gets me to come back and spend more money. They check that box easily.
Also I have a question, what should I be looking for? Diluted? Mixed with something else? I’ve seen some sites that sell just plain nicotine but I’m not sure if that’s what I should be going with or what.
Almost all nicotine isn't going to be "pure". If it is, it's going to be extremely expensive, and hard to deal with. 50mg/ml, 100mg/ml, and 250mg/ml are the most common, and they are usually available diluted with either pure VG or pure PG.
Ok that’s what I thought. So the calculation I did should be accurate because it’s based on nicotine that’s diluted? That makes me feel better. I’m totally new to this because everything is crashing and burning around me :( I’m just scrambling to do something before the hammer comes all the way down on our heads.

Those all appear to be out of the UK or Canada. I just assumed they don’t ship to the US when I looked the other day. Was I wrong?
10 of the 14 vendors on that list are in the US. Either you looked at a different list or yeah, you're wrong.
Perfectvape no longer sells nicotine only pre mixed base nicotine for retail customers
I also ordered 1 liter of 100mg nic, just now, from Perfect Vape.
Really glad for the additional back uptoo, since I have a family member who decided to move away from cigarettes and take an interest in vaping...a week ago. And I hadn't planned on using my modest little nic stash on anybody but me.
Where on the perfectvape site did you find ltrs of 100mg nic
Go to Nicotine in the side navigation bar, and then under "Nicotine Base - NicSelect" You can choose whatever base VG/PG ratio you prefer and then get it anywhere from 3mg to 100mg/ml, with prices rising accordingly. And you can go in a few sizes from 4oz to 1 gallon.
Liquid barn is where I got my nicotine. 2 bottles have lasted more than 2 years and we vape at 12mg every custom bottle we smoke.
Good to know! Adding it to my list! Thanks!
Omg you nic weirdos are so strange
