With the FDA sending already cease and desist letters to suppliers I think is time to stock up in merchandize and prepare for the worst but... for how long can i keep eliquid w/o been used?

nic will say (sometimes) two years.
i wouldn't really worry about it though. not like it will mold or bacteria will form.
the only thing that might happen is that the nic will reduce its effect.

if you order a ton just toss it into the freezer or fridge.

Thanks for the info. All I'm going to do is to buy at least 10 30ml bottles and put them in the freezer. just in case eliquid start to shortage. I already have a couple of eGo batteries coming and 25 atty's. I just don't wanna get caught off guard with this FDA 5h!t going on.

Nothing is final yet. Those letters were only sent to 5 suppliers that had, other, not so great ingredients in their juice. The court case hasn't started yet and will go on for some time.

I'm sure you'll still be able to order products from other counties regardless of the outcome.

I would recommend warming your juices to room temperature before using . . especially if they are vg.

Tests were done on nicotine left in a very warm car over a period of time.  There was no noticeable difference in the strength.
