Personally, I stay away from both of them. Their are SO MANY good eliquid vendors out there, smaller mom and pop type shop that put way more care into their mixes than these two places do. They are just as cheap if not cheaper as well. Do a bit of searching, a lot of threads have links to a lot of these vendors as well.
I don't think I will ever buy from vape wild or mt. baker, and I think that's a good thing.

MBV started out as a mom&pop type shop. The Mrs. and I have been ordering from them since they worked out of a home in Washington state.
One of the reasons they have grown so much is because people liked their product and service. Otherwise they would have gone the way of so many start-ups that disappeared after a brief flash.
I don't know what makes you think they don't put care into their products. I have found them to be very consistent. I don't like everything I've gotten from them, but that's true of every vendor.
Their customer service is stellar. I got a batch of Cherry after they quit selling their
Wild Cherry and it was unusable to me. Not cherry-like at all. I called and bitched and they gave me credit for it.
Once they got a shipment confused and I got an iPV 5 mod box instead of a few 30ml bottles of juice. I called to see about getting it back to them and they told me to just keep it, and they'd get my juice in the mail that day.
I'm not going to turn my back on them just because they became successful. They still make juice I like, and the prices are still reasonable and the CS still outstanding.
I will certainly try other sources. That's why I follow sites like this one, but good recommendations are like opinions. 'Cause that's what they are.
I recently tried Vista Vapors after reading some good comments, and the score was 1 1/2 flavors out of 4 choices. One was great. One was almost too potently flavored, and two were unpalatable.
That doesn't mean I think they are a terrible vendor, or that I'll never use them again. It just means that it didn't work well this time. Other flavors might do just fine.
