Are you done stocking up?

[Don29palms]

I should be about set. I do want to pick up some odds and ends, like replacement glass and squonk bottles, and maybe a couple mech squonkers. I’d like something nicer than the Stentorian, although I have 3 of those and they’re pretty good.

Seems I find the bottom end and the really expensive top end, not much in the middle.

You can pick up a Purge mods mech squonker for around $100.

Makes stocking up seem not so bad. I haven't spent what I spent in just one year. How did I even afford to smoke? Oh yeah, I switched to vaping because I couldn't.

Yep, we can afford most any vape item we want and still save money over paying BT daily for smokes. Two packs a day at roughly $5 each is $300/month. That could be a mid range car payment, especially if you do a trade in against the total.

I recommend the Aegis squonk, it is great and not too expensive. So nice to have the fill port on the top so easy to fill the bottle.

I wonder what my Divers will be worth LOL

The are close to $9 a pack here, and were that price nine years ago when I quit! I was at a pack to a pack and a half a day.

Guys be very certain on your Nic supply. The senate version of the tax is $5000 for 1 Liter of 100 mg.

Also start blasting out tweets and calling the white house daily. Trump needs to know there are consequences if he signs this.

When I quit smoking back in 2010 a carton of Dorals was about $30. I looked up average prices a few days ago and Georgia cigarettes are an average $5.33 a pack.

GA is tobacco growing country and they are cheaper in the south because of it and their tax structure. When I quit in 2010 in WA state price was over 8.00 a pack. WA at that time had the highest taxes on cigs of any place other than maybe NY.

Do we know for a fact these taxes would be applied to bulk raw nic or only to finished retail product?
Seems it would be double taxation if it applied to both.

If I had to guess, it would be at the wholesale level (bulk raw nic).

From what I read in the other thread the Senate bill specifically would tax our bulk nic base unless we had a manufacturers license.

As usual, it is all as clear as mud.

I don't have any codes, but have always gone with heartland due to the price and the free shipping over $50 (if you are only getting 1L of 100mg it is easy to do by adding some pg or vg, etc). I have been very happy with their product.

Do you use Heartland's Nic Select? I am going to re figure my supply, and will probably be adding a liter or two.

Nope.. just the regular nic.

 

[bnrkwest]

Yeah that's the thing there's no return air duct in my room there's only the one in the hallway around the a couple corners from my room. Vape usually

Why not just use the Athena bottles for 2.00?

oh they work too? Ok will get them

Congress critters can introduce bills for anything they want. "Mandatory Pet Wombat Ownership" could be a Bill.

Legislative contacts are good. Panic not so much.

yes... but with the current climate it is very likely to pass.

What consequences would that be?

 

[markfm]

It has to pass both House and Senate, go through reconciliation (bills almost never match), then go to the President for signature, then the mechanics of implementation.

Someone said they did, I haven't tried them. You could start a thread to ask, just in case.

Found it. Posted by @markfm

Luna bottle measures 18mm wide x 48mm high.

You might pick up some of the gv Athena bottles from eightvape, 18mm x 46mm. On a quick check their silicone bottles seem to fit well. I ordered 6 yesterday (for use on multiple 18650 format squonkers), $13 shipped using the RVT11 code.
