    It seems to be all e-cig components that are affected--batteries, e-juices, etc. HC is exercising its authority(?) on an almost 5-year-old advisory to Canadians that should not buy e-cigarettes because they have not been thoroughly tested for safety and efficacy. HC has even legislated earlier...

    It also keeps HC from threatening to shut down their businesses. There are only a few vendors here that actually advertise that they have nicotine juices, despite HC--most vendors have a person go through a registration process too see their full selection of wares. I'm about to venture into...

    Mark and Dale, I'm glad you have had good experiences with FT. There are many who haven't though, with the threats of the CBSA seizing packages, and now, with the latest problems with HK Customs, I feel it's not a good idea to order from them. I'm terrible for researching stuff to death before...

    Really glad I could help. All of us here are in the same boat she's in--struggling to get clean or to stay clean. I truly think she'd benefit from the care and expertise of many on this thread to guide her to a successful experience with vaping.

    Alisa, does she have enough posts to join us here? And would she feel comfortable doing so? Thanks, Shari. I know of the Canada Forum, but I didn't find it really helpful to newbies.

    I don't know about rates with the USPS, but if you do try to send this new vaper something, it might be stopped by Canadian Border Services. I do know, though, that East Coast Vape offers much more than just the eRoll. Newfoundland Vapes (nlvapes.com) has a starter kit with 2 650 mAh batteries...

    Please DO NOT EDIT your post, Cags! You are NOT being insensitive at all. Being stung by 3 wasps is NOT small. Thankfully you heal quickly from them. We come to this thread to catch up on the daily goings-on, to have a chuckle or two, and to find comfort where there might be none. Here we...

    Sorry for the confusion, Mark. Didn't realize it would take only HOURS, not DAYS, or I would have warned everyone here beforehand. Dale, I couldn't have "come out of the closet" to a more delightful, crazy, and more wonderful bunch of people. I consider all of your here friends, and I felt...

    Unfortunately, because vendors don't want their juices copied, they are not going to give proper descriptions in what they make. Not everyone who uses e-cigs wants to go the DIY route, though. So, with pre-made juices, we have to take a chance. And congrats on your 3-month vaperversary!

    I'm doing well, thanks. I think I have a few juices that I can actually vape for a few days, till my order of 100% VG juices arrives next week. My problem right now isn't the flavours, but the amount of PG in the juices I have. I'm happy to consider everyone here friends, too. That's why...

    But you are much better off without the temptation to pick up a cigarette. You've been smoke-free for over 3 months now :thumbs: Stay strong, Thaya :)

    Nice looking shoes, Kittyn, but they're not for me. My ankles are allergic to heights.

    Thanks, Twg. You're quite right, vaping is different than smoking. I did try some straight VG after I first got cleared from the hospital emerg, thanks to Shari's suggestions (She was going through a horrible reaction to cinnamon around the same time as my last bout.). I was still quite...

    Thanks, folks! I really appreciate the support :) I'm kicking myself around for not leaving the smokies behind yet, but I can't forget how far I've come. My last COPD episode was 1-1/2 years ago, and I was still smoking 1+ pad. I needed a Ventolin treatment, my inhalers, plus a full round of...

    Congrats on your success, Reroka! And only took you 3 days to give up the smokies? Way to go! Now I feel like a total loser.:(
