Just my take on things... Buying for US from US where states have banned vape products or have shipping restrictions: 1) Shippers really do nothing about this (Although cases like this may change that: smokeasy 2) State AG's or other watchdog groups will report or request info, if they legally...

I've been waiting for this comment and sorry if it's been mentioned already as I didn't read all 27 pages here on ecf but I read it the same way.. After August 8,2016, no new products.. I think this link has some really important information how the regs affect vape stores, import/export and...

Only rumors but have heard there have already been meetings with others. We're verified with OMB, just waiting on a date and sounds like it will be about mid December.. Keeping our fingers crossed.. hoog

There's a lot of background action going on and many of us are scheduling meetings with FDA/OMB. BUT... It's all guess work to a point. We can go in and say what we want, what we expect and what we think the proposed regulations will do to our industry but we have only vague ideas of what the...

Dear Madvapes Customers and fellow Vapers: Madvapes is committed to advocating for the vaping industry and protecting the rights of every vaper. As a company, we are taking steps to prevent the potential catastrophic effect FDA regulation will have on our industry. We are asking for your...

So irritating how they've twisted it to be e-cig related. There's another version of this story that shows it a different way. http://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/only-smoke-when-youre-drinking-heres-why/ar-BBmDmTI hoog

http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2015-10/nlmc- uoe101315.php The original study doesn't even use e-cigs but the totally bogus headline of this press release is irritating. http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx? articleid=2456151 hoog

Mass has a specific requirement for internet age verification. They require that the age verification has to be a separate form, not part of the checkout process like most other states. We'll be pushing a change live on Monday to accommodate this. If you don't verify through this form (create...

There's very rarely going to be a confiscation of a package that will stop your shipment from reaching you. What will happen with enforcement is that the AG office or task force will make a purchase from your website to see if you're compliant. Those that aren't compliant will get a records...

It's really getting tough to manage so we use avalara and taxjar to make sure we're compliant which adds yet another 'fee' to everything else the government jams up our vapestack :) hoog

Some if not all of this stems from the Amazon case where they had privately owned companies with Amazon signs for distribution centers. Amazon argued that since they were not the owner of the distribution centers that they should not be have to pay sales tax in that state but unfortunately lost...

For the most part they don't know what you receive. What will happen eventually is that the state AG or tasked law enforcement department will subpoena sales records from online stores. They won't prosecute you, they'll prosecute the online stores for selling to you if they aren't compliant...

All of these so far have come from CEH, a watchdog group, who has a pretty solid history of being successful in winning these cases. hoog

It's really a loophole in the prop 65 laws that's been exploited for 30 years but it is enforceable and a little bit of research on the CA attorney general's website shows just how profitable it can be. Unfortunately, I'm caught in the mix so have some first hand info :( Nicotine is on the...

Unfortunately, it's not limited to retailers in California, it's anyone who ships to Cali also. This is the first of many state actions that we'll see and it's up to e-cig vendors, manufacturers, distributors and retailers to make sure they are in compliance with state and federal laws. :( hoog

There's some big players in there.. Wonder how this will all pan out and how many more potential notices can go out. hoog

Signature on delivery is definitely a hassle but doable and typically paid for by the buyer. Some people request it now due to packages being stolen, etc but that isn't age verification, just signature required... There are a few approved online services for 'automated' age verification and...

Unfortunately true. This was the first wave of notices sent. It had to happen: predatory Prop. 65 lawyers threaten CA hoog
