    Greetings everyone! I'm old to smoking but new to vaping...

    Welcome to ECF and best of luck with your Vaping journey. Sounds like you are off to a great start. Your taste buds are likely to improve which is all good and your sense of smell should improve. I vividly remember the first time I smelled freshly mowed grass. Delightful to say the least. Good...

    FDA FDA response to lawsuits.

    I'm not surprised at this "answer" from the FDA. It's typical legal beagle stuff which happens in nearly all cases like this. The JUDGE makes the call and I would expect/guess that to happen in about one or two months. Please note all the attorneys involved (SEVEN !!!!) for the FDA. Our tax...

    FDA Due to FDA Regulations....

    Ditto! Lets see, a sale for pennies and a buy back for pennies to demo the specific mod they just purchased. The optics of this specific case raise red flags to the FDA, ICE, or other local authorities who may inspect. What are you doing that may be non compliant is the first thing that flashes...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    AND speaking of CASAA please note the following from the amici curiae brief: "Pursuant to FRAP 29(c), the Amici state that Clive Bates is the sole author of this Brief; no money or other consideration was received by him or by any member of his group from a party or its counsel to fund the...

    FDA Sampling juice at B&M's

    Danka! YES! It must be traceable and depending on your sales system, a dedicated SKEW for the sample charge which should make this retail sale taxable income AND, if the FDA shows up at your front door you can pull up the records and prove you don't offer free samples. Also the procedure must be...

    Ahlusion LLC Chat Thread

    With respect to your request for a custom mix of Ginger Candy with mint: Here is what may be going on at the mother ship. I will summarize it so I don't gum up the thread. On 8/8/16 the FDAs Final rule became the law of the land. This places all juice makers in a really tough and unfortunate...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    :) AND try this headline for a carefully crafted (post meds) perspective: Jeff Nesbit, Former Associate Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration supports the Nicopure Labs/Right to be Smoke-Free Coalition legal challenge to the Final Deeming Rule! ...tada!

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    I'm not sure if this has been posted in this thread so please humor me: "This is the theme of the amici curiae brief sixteen of us have just filed in the Nicopure Labs et al versus FDA legal case..." A must read for those of us who enjoy diving down into the weeds :) The full Clive Bates Blog...

    Ahlusion LLC Chat Thread

    I have no idea exactly how Wlad will handle this issue but I strongly suggest he will comply with the letter and spirit of the Final Rule which prohibits FREE samples. FREE means FREE and that word is critical. FREE also means you actually vape the juice since touching and smelling is permitted...

    Age Verification is here! Important information about ordering going forward!

    Thank you young man :) Sounds like an efficient and secure procedure with a trusted third party. For the benefit of others: The FDA Final Rule lacks specific details on exactly how a given vendor must deploy "age verification" on the WWW. So vendors must choose a procedure that they think will...

    Age Verification is here! Important information about ordering going forward!

    Congrats and best wishes young man:) You're one of the first to roll out Age Verification. Great work! Question and I hope you don't mind since I'm a retired geek :) Is the data you are collecting for Age Verification subsequently run through a trusted third party Data Base to confirm the age...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    I see we have collectively entered the "down in the weeds" with respect to a 6 store B&M who says they plan to sell only zero nic ejuice in a bottle that is produced by a third party ejuice company. Fine and dandy. I enjoy the "weeds" /lol and really wish this owner the very best of luck BUT...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    Thanks. I missed this. Diving down into the legal stuff I was interested in exactly how the Deeming would affect one of the oldest and largest players in the vaping universe. After all, many of us started are journey with Halo. Myself included. Source for the following extract's...

    FDA Has there been any updates yet?

    Where were "you" on April 24, 2014? A little history and a vid may help some members. We often use the word "foundational" when describing the deeming/final so listen to the words of Zeller way back then and how it compares to today. Stay Strong! Fight! Stock Up! /Yes...for gods sake myself...

    FDA Has there been any updates yet?

    OK Girls and Boys! Lets look at the other side of the coin and that's the deeming with respect to Synthetic NIC. Credit to Professor Kent C for his exstratct from the final: "(Comment 164) Some comments sought clarification as to FDA's authority over e-liquids that do not contain nicotine or...

    FDA Has there been any updates yet?

    AND of course it's worth mentioning that in the event that the courts intervene with respect to Synthetic NIC in the context of a "tobacco product", the FDA can regulate Synthetic NIC as a "drug". They have a track record of this action with NIC water and believe it or not lollipops that contain...
