Are you referring to VG/PG? Are they really that expensive for you? That's wild.

Yes, 100ml from the same store I bought a liter from for 40€ in 2015 now cost 56€. There is currently a tax of 0.32€ per ml on liquid, no matter if you're buying the base or the finished product.

I'm confused. Why wouldn't the same taxes apply to a disposable vape which has the same liquid inside of it?

Also, in the GP comment, you mentioned the cost was 400€ but here you're saying 56€. Are you talking about different things?

The 400 euro figure was for a liter, while the 56 euro price is for 100ml

I guess it's time to not only make the vaping liquids yourself, but the bases too :P

Quick Googling suggests I'd pay less than 30 euro for a liter of VG. What about for the nicotine concentrate? I'd pay about 20 euros for 100ml of 20mg/ml concentrate.
