Actually the laws are so restrictive that I would not be surprised if suppliers refuse to ship to Indiana. That's what happened to RYO cig tobacco a few years ago. There's insane requirements for 24hr video surveillance (not just any video surveillance, but expensive systems) plus manufacturers have to obtain permits and submit other docs (blueprints of their facility I believe), and be subjected to inspections, plus every batch of eliquid must have a sample stored under video surveillance for 3 years. I'm not sure whether the sample would include nic base, but given the definition I think it will.
Yes sorry, didn't go into any detail. Your right, why would a vendor jump through all those hoops just to send me some eliquid. I was just talking about all the DIY components that have nothing to do with tobacco like vanilla flavoring. In Indiana come july 1st it will be illegal for me to use it to make a DIY eliquid. The law was written in a vague manner that ends up throwing a blanket over every aspect of eliquid. Imagine I place an order with Wizard Labs for DIY supplies that does not include Nicotine. Will WL accept my order? I'm thinking they wont. How will Indiana enforce it? Don't know. All I really know is its insane and how I look at vaping and our government is changing very quickly. I feel much different than I did just a couple weeks ago. The fun hobby is turning into something else. It feels serious now. I haven't "marched" in a long time. Last time was April 1981 Earth Day in DC. Indiana is only the first and before long I think a lot of us will be back on streets of our capitols marching for our rights.
I live downtown and im off till Sunday! Lets meet at the capital building. Im over this bass ackworkds state. Its like living w a bunch of Angelas from "The Office".
Its NEVER too late. Its just hard to get non vapers to get worked up and stand behind us. I think we are too few, and a lot of us, including me, are non-confrontational, freedom loving americans who just want to be left alone. But just like a bear in January, dont mistake our silence for weakness. Poked enough, the bear will do what it does best. I feel like thats what Indiana is doing to it's citizens. The bear is growing. We need to wake up and focus our energy on the one issue that truly matters. Our freedom. Not just to vape, but in general. Freedom to live our lives in peace without Indiana telling us its not ok to be in a loving relationship with a certain person, or that we cant enjoy an adult beverage or buy a vehicle on sunday. And now that I cant mix liquids together to save money and possibly my life. I know my father, your fathers, grandfathers, brothers, sisters, cousins, and friends didnt serve and die for our freedom so it can be taken bit by bit so we dont notice. Im sorry for my rant. Im just tired of trying to be a good person, treating others the way I want to be treated, and being treated like a lower class person by my government.It's pretty much past time for marching to do any good.
We're somewhere past the soap box and ballot box and the jury box is kinda iffy... but I don't think we're quite to the cartridge box just yet...although I'm beginning to wonder.
Washington and Oregon are going down the same path. They are even trying to make it illegal to purchase ANYTHING having to do with e-cigs, flavoring, including all hardware and parts, etc. over the web .. or by phone. That's not even taking into consideration the 75% tax they want for purchases in the state. By forcing you to purchase inside the state, taxing it sky high, they are trying to recoup their loses.
e-juice-me-up- by Breakthru is a good one
