    Speaking of taxes...
    I ordered something from My Freedom Smokes and was charged sales tax.
    I knew they did not have a store in Florida and they are in SC.
    When I asked, this is what they said:
    "We’re required to collect sales tax in every state now"
    This is new to me, haven't had other US vendors charge sales tax if they are not located in my state.

    When I lived in WA state, I expected to pay tax but after I moved to Florida, Mt Baker still charged sales tax. I inquired and was sent some complex law thing, probably similar to what you were told.

    Interesting.
    This is the only vendor I've had do this so far.
    Maybe they are doing business the correct way.
    Just wonder if the taxes are actually being sent back to Florida.
    Oh well can't do anything about it, other than figure this in when comparing vendors/prices.

    UK & much further East.
    Do I have to declare this mod on my taxes? :?:


    I can’t say I like that at all. So let’s say hypothetically a mod you purchase is defective, will you have to pay that fee for each passage through customs or is it only applied when money is being exchanged?

    I'm talking about UK here, maybe your country has different arrangements with Customs agents - here we would only be liable for some kind of tax if value is being transferred, afaik returns are tax free, if it gets sent back after a repair theoretically you shouldn't levy the same tax twice, but you know ..... I reckon those carrier Brokerage depts have fee targets to meet. :-x

    Somewhere out there
    The pod comes out, you just carry it on your wrist :) LOL It is cute but I passed. I ordered some wire and pods from FT, also got a few tanks and Gala pod on VaperDNA. Contacted Evolv about fixing my two Orions that don't work, ack! I saw a video on how to restart them, but it voids any warranty, so figured I'd ask first. If I like the Gala, I'll order more pods and if my Orion's get fixed I'll order a few more pods for them too. Love them as grab and go :)

    Otherwise I am really stocked up for the duration. Even have some plug in the outlet vape to put a carto on if I get desperate LOL!

    I know. I'm just being a wise:censored:.

    I'm sure there are folks out there using them, and happily. There is no wrong way to vape (unless you listen to idiotic legislators and regulators).

    I'm really stocked up, too, with my favorite set-ups and then some. But, if push comes to shove...I have some very simple pass-through set-ups to put a carto on, or a small Vision Nano tank on, etc. Many Innokin mods (especially the older ones) can also be used as a pass-through device. So I've kept several new ones of those. Also have a few new Innokin DRV Kits that plug into a vehicle's cigarette lighter socket. Like you, I'm determined that I will be able to vape for as long as I want to...one way or another. ;)
