Sourcing Nic Salt: return and replacement brief
Nic Salt sits in a crowded price band, and the cheapest quote on the sheet is rarely the cheapest unit on your shelf. Everything below is built around reorder rate, defect rate and cash conversion rather than headline unit price.

Transit, consolidation and timing
There is no shortage of suppliers quoting nic salt. The scarce thing is a supplier who will tell you which SKU to drop. We have been shipping nic salt e-liquids long enough to know that the honest answer is usually a shorter list, and that is the answer we give.
Damage in transit is nearly always a packing decision, not bad luck. Double-walled cartons, internal dividers and a drop-tested configuration cost a little more and save the argument at the other end.
We ship from Shenzhen and Guangzhou: air express for samples and part loads, sea freight for volume. Typical production lead time is 20 working days after artwork approval, plus transit. We quote both routes so you can see the trade-off instead of guessing at it.
Merchandising a small range well
Photography matters for online listings. Shoot on a neutral background with the device at a slight angle, show the pack alongside the unit, and keep the same framing across the range so the grid reads as a family.
Shelf position decides velocity as much as price. Keep nic salt e-liquids at eye level, one facing per SKU, and rotate the trial line every quarter so the display keeps earning attention.
How we structure a first order
When you compare suppliers for nic salt, ask for the last three production dates on the same SKU. If the answers are vague, the specification is not being held and the next batch will not match the sample you approved.
A practical starting order for vape shop owners is 200 units across two or three SKUs, not 200 units of one. That spreads the risk, gives your staff something to compare, and still hits the first price break.
- Artwork proof plus physical dummy for custom packaging
- Batch codes traceable from carton back to production date
- Private label files archived for future rebrands
- Document pack prepared per destination market
- Named account contact who has handled the product
- Specification locked in writing before production starts
The reorder is the real test
For private label accounts we hold the artwork files and the approval record. Rebranding a line eighteen months later is then a file update instead of a redesign.
We keep the specification sheet for every order on file. Two years later, when a customer asks whether a pod is compatible, the answer is a lookup rather than a guess.
Specification summary
| Volume | 10 ml |
| Strength | 10 mg/ml |
| Base ratio | 50/50 PG-VG |
| Flavour range | 16 profiles |
| Closure | Tamper evident |
| Bottle | PET |
| Minimum order | 200 units per SKU, mixed cartons allowed |
| Lead time | 12 working days after artwork approval |
None of this is complicated. It is just written down, which is more than most buyers get before they wire a deposit.
Frequently asked
What documents come with a shipment?
Commercial invoice, packing list, and the certificate pack for your market: test reports, declaration of conformity and safety data sheets. We send scans before dispatch so your broker can pre-clear the file.
Can you ship to multiple locations?
Yes. Split shipments are quoted separately because consolidation and splitting price differently. Tell us the destination list at quotation stage and we will show both options.
How long does production take?
Around 20 working days after artwork approval for stock configurations, plus transit. Custom runs add roughly a week for tooling and a physical dummy. We confirm the date in writing on the order acknowledgement.
