If they banned ecigs, would you stockpile?

In the US the standard for a product to be banned unilaterally we have a standard that is used --the product must prove--AFTER HEARING--that "the product poses an immanent harm to the general public." It is a very hard standard to meet. But if you are that scared, by all means load up!!

No..not scared..just being prudent after these sudden bans...and cause kinda love these e-cigs and some good strength nic..

Simply put, I would become an outlaw.

Actually, the FDA could have the sales stopped overnight due to not having the necessary paperwork filed on them. In our instance for E-Liquid it falls under a New Drug Category.

This requires a New Drug Application (NDA) filed for it. The fact is and you can check the OASIS Disapproval lists of manufactures already being charged with not having this paperwork filed.

Because of this they could stop the import of goods from these companies or any others selling this product. It is a matter of if they choose to proceed with enforcement.

I will leave it by saying if you feel the need to stock up then by all means do it--Enjoy Vaping

That's an impressive link,Keltrey!
No clue how you got this! Do you work for the US govn't?
Maybe you can get the list for Canada rejections..

[Keltrey]

I used to. U.S Army. That is not how I found it though. The FDA Website is useful and so is Google.

[Keltrey]

It is not that easy and the NDA was purly a statment made by a pencil pusher at the FDA--his opinion is just that--an opinion

I suggest you ready Chapter 5; Section 505 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act.

SEC. 505. [21 USC 355] New Drugs. [Caution: See prospective amendment note below.] (a) Necessity of effective approval of application. No person shall introduce or deliver for introduction into interstate commerce any new drug, unless an approval of an application filed pursuant to subsection (b) or (j) is effective with respect to such drug.

FD&C Act Chapter V, Sections 501-510

Hmmm.."spare room"..."downunder"..."fantasies"

Trumpybloke are you hitting on me

I think Keltrey is right, that's the catch, classification is everything, we will be seen as drug importers and users. Drugs are only allowed if medically proven and approved, they are highly regulated.

Trading Standards recently stopped sale of liquid nicotine in the UK for Wicked. They tried to apply a law that exists to regulate poisons but fortunately that didn't cover the strengths our eliquid is supplied in. My understanding is that it was only after lab testing proof was provided that the Trading Standards allowed Wicked back on sale.
