Bigjim Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 My last post got me thinking... Is it ok to ship ejuice? The last time I was at the post office, to ship out my last failed purchase for trade, the lady asked me if the package contained any of this, that and the other thing, or any liquid. Just as she said that, I noticed a sign behind her saying "Is your package safe?" and had a list of stuff, that I couldn't read. In fear of shipping denial, I lied and answered no. When shipping ejuice, do ya just tell them you are sending liquid? I was afraid that they would want to open the box and check it all out, then possibly deny the shipping because it contains nicotine. Can anyone relate?

kitsune Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I must admit, I lie. I do tell them it is liquid. I also tell them it is food flavoring....... I always make sure the containers are sealed and try to put them in a ziplock baggie for extra protection. Its not explosive anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 This is a good question. It made me think of what do suppliers do when they ship e-liquid to us? Sorry I don't have the correct answer. I related to your failed purchase. I've had two in one week. I think I recall you saying one of yours tasted like a used bandaid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I always get my shipping labels out of the machine, so I don't have to deal with pesky humans and face moral dilemas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 The machines don't ask if it's liquid? LOL...I feel guilty lying, too. The first time I said "yes, it's liquid". Clerk looked at me and waited for me to tell her what it was, I looked at her blankly. She said, "nothing dangerous, though, right?" I said "no, of course not". The second time, I lied and said "no liquid". And, then I prayed she wouldn't shake the package and hear the liquid sloshing around. Lie then pray. Hypocritical if I do say so myself.

Brian Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I've never been asked, but I live in BFE. I alwys put them in ziplocks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaHodgehound Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I just brush them off with a simple "nah" but I never send enough to hear sloshing either. Ziplocg bag and bbl wrap in a bbl wrap pouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I say food flavorings, too. But that's only when I've mailed in a manilla envelope. Most times I use a box and get online to pay for the postage and print out the label. I don't like dealing with people either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjim Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Ohhh, didn't even think of the Print at Home thing, Thanks for the idea! I think I recall you saying one of yours tasted like a used bandaid? LoL, yeah, the "RY4 Type" concentrate, it's called, from PA. I know taste is subjective, but I taste plastic! It's probably my lack of mixing skills. I'm kinda big and clumsy, and not to sure what I'm doing. I'd rather give it to someone who's more experienced in mixing, maybe they can make it work. 15ml of concentrate is a lot to go to waste, but that's what I get for not trying the smaller bottle first! Sorry for the LoL Edited August 29, 2010 by Bigjim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the LoL Forgive me for replying to this again. I was the one who went off topic here. I'm still getting over my two bad orders I received in ONE WEEK! I guess that's what suppliers do, print from the machine. I haven't mailed eliquid, however I remember having sent other types of liquid through the mail. Call me a sociopath, but I just say no. And I have no problem with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
