Are you done stocking up?

Nice sentiment but the powers that be didn't slip that little bit into the stimulus bill with concerns about the USPS. They wanted vaping gone, because it cut into the profits of some of their biggest donors...BT, BP, the ANTZ. The post office is sinking anyway and vape mail is actually a small fraction of their business. They're gonna have to be bailed out no matter what.

"But a Postal Service spokesman told MJBizDaily Monday that USPS isn’t yet ready to implement the final rule.

“Despite our best efforts, in order to ensure thorough and thoughtful consideration of the complex issues and voluminous comments by industry, individual, and governmental stakeholders, the Postal Service is unable to publish a final rule by today’s target date,” spokesman David P. Coleman said in an email.

Coleman said the USPS would finalize the rule “as soon as possible.”

See what I'm saying? There is still hope that reason will win out !

If 2+2=5 now, then how many days exactly is 120 days? By my estimation, 120 days is now 270.

My equation is (((120/4)*5)+120)=270

Sound about right?

Are those Working or Calendar Days?

LOL

 

[Shadav]

lol I was gonna say 120 business days (so excluding weekends, holidays, etc)

 

[UncleJunkle]

I don't think "work days" is a thing anymore. It's not in the newest edition of the New Speak Dictionary.

We've gotten a few days reprieve. Who knows how many days, nor how much warning we'll get once they are ready to implement the changes? But the changes, they be a comin'.

 

[YoursTruli]

The sad part is so many have already stopped shipping much to their detriment, but, I have to imagine the PACT act also played a big part in their decision to stop shipping too. This delay really doesn't make much difference when it comes right down to it, much the same desired ANTZ effect happened already.

Effective immediately upon final rule publication...

Coleman said the USPS would finalize the rule “as soon as possible.”

“Mailers should be prepared for implementation upon publication anytime,” he said.

[Territoo]

So that answers the question of how much warning...none. We'll wake up one day to find that our stuff we ordered can't be shipped. So it might as well be today.

Farewell, old friend.

I have retired my Nautilus Mini I have used daily since September 2014. I got it with one of the first Eleaf iStick 20w, but now on a 26650 pico mega.

So, what happens to a daily tank after 6.5 years? The female threads in the chimney that mates with the coil top have finally failed. I could just pull the tank apart with some coils, and it just wouldn't tighten on the stripped threads. Also, the oring on the drip tip has swelled, and If the tip comes off, it's hard to get it back in. The detentes that keep the airflow setting doesn't work, so I had to keep checking the set-ring. And hard to do at night while driving. And any printing on the glass is long gone. But it is the original glass! surviving many drops. I'll save it, just in case.

And I did get 2 replacement Mini's in the past month, since I have about 100 coils. The new one has nice clean gaskets (the old one became quite tan). The old one had different size "dots" to let you know what airflow setting you're using, but the new one? All the dots are the same size!!!

After 6.5 years, I think I got my $22.50 worth.

Farewell, old friend.

Have you tried them in 17track.net ?

Thanks for that. I didn't know about 17track. Two of my packages are tracked up to April 19 - the last words are 'the plane has reached the port' - very mysterious. My final order which was not in the system yet now shows up. I am optimistic again!

You should give it a nice funeral.

This is Also a Good Tracking Site.

Universal Package Tracking — Package Radar

PackageRadar.com is also another one that I use becuase sometimes it give more information. Downside is that (as far as I can see) you can only track one package/tracking # at a time.

ETA: I see ZoiDman already mentioned it. lol

 

[Territoo]

Both of my Sourcemore orders have hit the states although USPS still isn't tracking them yet. FT is a different matter, even though they were ordered earlier, they are still on the slow boat from China.

 

[bnrkwest]

Well I have resisted buying anything else, need some flavors just for fun Debating if I should pick another RDA if I find I like it I was tempted by another Radius but the price is way up there! LOL

I just checked Heartland vapes looks like they are still shipping 100 mg nicotine in vg only, wizards labs and ecig express has pulled it from there items. Ecig express pulled almost all ecig stuff except flavorings from there site.

Whats the word on Nicotine shipping are we still legal here?

 

[Territoo]

Heartland isn't shipping anymore. In store pickup only.
