Best place to get supplies for DIY E-Liquid?

    So I'm sick of shelling out so much money for juice, and I figured I should take my first foray into DIY territory... My favourite vendor sells flavor concentrates, so I'm going to stock up on my ADVs and hopefully get down to mixing. Unfortunately, they're based in the US, and shipping cost for bulk amounts of PG, VG and nic base, along with all the other stuff I'll need would be pretty pricey.

    So my question is, where is a good place to pick up DIY supplies? I assume I'll need VG, PG, nic base (preferably around 50mg/ml, but lower would be fine), syringes, empty bottles and pipettes. Do you guys have any suggestions?
    Advice for equipment and super stellar juice recipes are also appreciated :)

    Thanks guys!

    Awesome, thanks guys! Any fruit or menthol flavors you would recommend?

    Inewara's Eucalyptus is very refreshing, and I'm not a big mint fan at all.
    Their Wild Strawberries is really good too

    Bargain Vapour carries the DKS range, the Frutti di Bosco (mixed berries) is gorgeous but takes a while to fully age before it becomes a taste more than a scent (even though it's all a scent if you get what I mean).

    From leisureliquids.com, out of the Perfumer's Apprentice range I have loved the pear, peach and strawberry. TPA do loads other nice ones but leisure don't carry them.

    People keep banging on about Capella, really got to order some of that and get mixing.

    Oh awesome, its good to hear that there are some irish vendors stocking the big names like capellas and TPA, I've read a lot about them on ECF. I've just put an order in for my ADVs from mtbakervapor, and it works out to around 200ml worth of juice for each flavor I ordered... Really excited to start mixing.

    From thebestshop I'm ordering 5x5ml bottles, 5x10ml bottles, 5x30ml bottles, 5x2.5ml syringes, 5x10ml syringes and 10 blunt needles.

    Do you guys think I'm good to go?

    NoOoOoOO! Capella and TPA are only available from the UK at the moment.

    Sorry!

    Ahh ok no worries. I'll stick with my mtbaker flavors for the moment then. Do you think the other equipment I ordered will be fine?

    Wow... That website is a nightmare! I'll see If I can find my way around it as the prices seem good (and that eucalyptus sounds tasty) but damned if that isn't confusing. I might just order the PG from my US supplier and get the VG and nic base from e-cigshop.

    Thanks, they don't seem to have any PG without nic though... I emailed the guys from e-cigshop and they said they should be stocked up by monday, so I'll probably just order from them next week. It's gonna take a week or two for my flavors to get here so I have plenty of time to kill. Thanks for your help though guys! :)
