Where do y'all buy your vials home Brewers?

[Tailor]

I get vials from chinnese supplier. Nice short, bulky ones. Not the chippest ones but quality product. Same as the stoppers soft rubber, no pinning marks even after 50 pins from one vial

Anyone found a decent UK supplier? I see EZ Vialz says it has UK stock but whenever you go to shipping it adds on a stupid amount.

Tempted to go with the Chinese 1260 vials with stoppers and caps for $350 all in. Seems like this could be the way to go or are there any hidden negatives when ordering from China?

Isnt it sketchy to ship that through customs ?

I know its not illegal to by vials.. But can it raise a flag under your name ?

Somebody didn't do much homework for their "project", did they?

Go straight to jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect £200

But to answer your question:

Ebay or Facebook. It really is that easy for vial components in the UK. Won't cost you that much more than China either & you should be able to pick up stuff from big name UK or EU pharma brands rather than unbranded Chinese shite.

It doesn't go to a personal address. Vials are all perfectly legal as well, suspicious maybe but illegal no.

Ebay has vials but not many the correct size, a lot of them are the crappy 22mm*50mm vials.

No, I was joking mate - wasn't saying you'd get nicked for importing vials. I was saying you was a naughty boy for not doing your homework!

I know there are UK suppliers, but being able to order without paying using a credit card, like btc or even PayPal is a benefit. Rather than through a site which records your order.

I have always used vials from ebay before but trying to make my stuff look much more professional and the tall skinny vials don't look any good in my opinion.

If you look around you'll see some of them also do off-site ordering & take cash payments.

That's why I mentioned ebay or FB to you. Those suppliers know exactly what sort of customer buys their products & why, as let's be honest, no one in the UK with a legitimate need for sterile vial components would ever be buying them off ebay or social media.

I can't comment on vial size options available though, sorry.

That's very true, I won't need sterile as they will all be autoclaved anyway.

But I agree they will know the customers that buy the products. Do you know any good sites?

Just did another double check on UK sources, thought why not try one last time on ebay. As it turns out there is a seller that sells for pretty much exact same price as China is inside the UK. I presume they are just reseller but it makes it so much easier.

Usually when searching on eBay I just see crappy perfume or screw caps.

 

[Boss hog]

Just gotta look thru ebay. I pick up the 25 packs of 10ml vials for like 23 -25 bucks.

I have found 22*45 and 24*45, I'm not sure what to get but seems like the first is the common size.
