Hello everyone my name is Gregg, I've been vaping for over 10 months now, same time not spent smoking, and I've come to know some of the cons of vaping that nobody warns us about.

I was a RYO guy for years my only con is the cost money-wise I've been vaping for 2+ years and it still bugs me that vaping is so hugely expensive.I did not quit smoking to save money however...I quit smoking to save my life.

You used to RYO the stinkies so why not DIY your juice and coils? You will save a lot of $$$

I have severe nerve damage in both hands which has gotten progressively worse over the years.I can still wrap my own coils but it takes me quite some time to wrap even a very basic coil.Then my hands hurt for hours after but it's not the pain that would keep from trying DYI it's the shaking.My hands literally shake like the leaves of a Bodhi.

Welcome Gregg!

Vaping benefits-

Incomparable e-cigs don't contain any tobacco. They additionally don't contain by far most of chemicals and cancer-causing present in cigarettes. They do contain Nicotine which is addictive.

The cost savings is one of the primary advantages of vaping. The investment funds are noteworthy. Simply investigate the table underneath for a thought of the amount you spare by utilizing the Matchless rechargeable ecig.

Buy pre made coils? Its not expencive, and you can use them for s loong ass time. 3 months ++ :)
I'm beginning to think most people don't get it.
Hopefully for the last time I'll say it again.
I have severe nerve damage in both hands.
Even filling a tank is hard for me and my hands hurt like hell after doing even that.

I wonder if someone could fab up a stand that has a clip to hold your tank and then a wee funnel that you could aim your juice into ?
Reducing the fine motor controls that would be needed to fill a tank would be a help ?

As apposed to the not RIDICULOUS price of cigarettes and other tobacco products?

We all have vises. Some are more expensive than others. Some are physically more harmful than others which in the long run will incur an even greater expense. There are places to buy less expensive e juices online, and then there is DIY juicing that makes the cost even less prohibitive. For those on a tighter budget that have the extra time I would go the DIY route. For those like me that are investing up to 2/3 of a 24 hr day working including travel time then buying and paying a little more for a quality good tasting product works. I prefer to spend my off time on a Harley somewhere, not at home building coils or making juice. The expense as I see it right now for me is coming up with a few flavors I like. This process has cost me a little bit going to the shop to choose a few to try that frankly would be a lot cheaper purchased online. I currently have about 4 flavors I like all of which I will start ordering online and saving a little there. Then I will do the same when it comes to buying mods. The mods at the shop where we go are at least 40% higher than buying the same thing online.

I am also a beginner of e-cig.... i searched in the internet, found two websites seems quite cheap. But i haven't bought this from these two shops, one is Fasttech, another one is Gearbest. Any one of you heard of this brand? Help me to choose please ><

1. https://www.fasttech.com/p/9054307?utm_source=ft&utm_medium=ecigbanner&utm_campaign=nk
2. https://www.gearbest.com/rebuildable-atomizers/pp_951744.html

which one will you choose???>< Their prices are more or less the same!

Both sites are decent.
I have bought from both and they are both very good.

One thing to watch out for is if an item is listed for sale be sure it's in stock and not just a pre order.

Currently I'd go with FastTech.
According to my wife there has been shipment delays of all kinds from the Netherlands nothing really bad like customs screwing around just more shenanigans than usual.

Oh and the standard warning for FastTech (Never order in February)

Learn how to make e juice
With Vaping Deals

It doesn't show in quoting you but your own post had two links to ways to make juice affordable. Your post therefore complaining of the costs seems well, contradictory at the least and stupid at the worst. Please try not insulting the intellect of the readership here on this forum. You cannot act the victim when you also posit knowledge of knowing how to survive without being victimized, life simply cannot and does not function that way. I apologize if my words read as being harsh.

Let me digress and bid you welcome to our forum. You might want to try a little different version of Howdy. :) You can call me Fred. :) I think @The Cromwell would approve of me using that name, I think he too is a Fred. :) We're all here to help as best we can. You'll find all levels of skills, knowledge, experience in vaping here. There's only one dumb question, the one you don't ask. We observe some elements of the hacker sub-culture at times. Take nothing personal. You'll eventually grow to huddle up with some of us, some of us huddling up with you.

Again, Welcome. :)

List me some flavors you like damn it. Then, toss me a pm with a shipping address. If I'm not able to get the exact flavor/s you want I will at least aim for low cost 'generics' or get them mixed up as 'generics'. I cannot guarantee a lab quality clean room here but we are relatively clean in our mixing, and use great care with it. So far none us of gotten ill or died from our juices. What will you owe? Gee, maybe postage, maybe enough of the green funny paper to buy six 2 L bottles of $0.77 soda, or maybe enough to buy a $3.00 gallon of tea. You'll not owe much if anything is my point. Hell even a simple "hey thanks" would suffice. Buds gotta help buds.

Lucky dog! I'm going just a wee low. Got some Nirvana mix left. It's a DIY made by mixing a fruit salad of flavors, peach mainly, blueberry, raspberry, watermelon and a bit of mint and sweetener. Recipe is around but i had a 'secret' ingredient which I "forgot" to measure for exactness. ;) I also got the dreaded ever steeping Nirvana Mix prototype ... "In case of emergency break glass". Might need to go crawling to Mt. Baker. Might find something else aside from Hawk Sauce too. *chuckles* Had a Whiskey flavor a while back. Hm. I will muse and muddle, offer stays open long as I too can. :)

My friend who I beta-tasted for made an decent-ish fruit salad he clued me into the fact the secret was in using a bit of almond.

As for Mt. Baker's Hawk Sauce...No thanks man.I think I'd rather smoke an actual cigarette than ever vape that stuff again.
Oh and I'm glad to see that whatever bee crawled up your bonnet seems to worked itself out.
