Are you done stocking up?

WHAT HAPPENS IF ?????

I used to consider India an up and coming nation but
India has a very high rate of lit cigarette smoking and deaths caused by it.

So what does India do about the problem???

They outlawed all vape juice and devices and made the law retroactive and you can be fined and/or sent to prison in India for simple possession of a vape device or juice!!!

For now you can just stay away from India.

But here in the United States we have a cartel, sometimes called 'tobacco nazis' who could care less whetther one tobacco product is safer than another
- If tobacco is being enjoyed they try to stop it.

They are funded by special interests including a multi billionaire who has already donated over a billion dollars to anti-tobacco causes.

How much of this money is paying off politicians to vote anti-vaping legislation is unknown.

What is known is that the PMTA and the shipping bans now going into effect are being funded by money such as his.

What if he pays enough politicians to do what was done in India and outlaws all vaping and makes possession of vape juices and devices a crime ???

He has already been caught sticking his nose in the Philippines attempting to kill their vaping industry.

What if he succeeds in paying of enough politicians here and gets it all outlawed???

There were rumors years ago that gun owners were hiding and burying guns underground becuase they felt 'the gun grabbers' were going to outlaw guns -
- So far that has not happened - But that same anit-vape billionaire continues to fund anti-gun legislation as well!

But with big money behind the anti-vape cause
- could it happen here as in India ????

UPS/FedEx/DHL have capital and the legal power. If the risk far outweighs the benefit for them, I don't see a smaller outfit taking on that risk. That's my point.

And if a new vape/specific courier comes into existence, it's an even bigger risk for them because when September comes they may find they no longer have a business, losing all that investment they made just 6 months prior. It takes a minimum of one year, but often 3 years, for a viable business with a solid business plan to break into the black and realize a profit.

I imagine it's precisely because of their money that they don't want to take the risk they won't profit enough in order to be bothered to continue shipping this stuff. They are constantly having backlog issues because they are such desired shipping options everyone knows them they can completely drop this and it won't hurt them one little bit. It's not worth their time to comply. It would take away from the profit because if they spend an extra three minutes over here getting a signature then they've just taken up precious time that they could have had delivering things that are more valuable. I think that's exactly where it comes in they make too much money to give a damn they're not hurting they're not thirsty. it takes too much time out of their day to bother with this when they can simply go deliver everything else on Earth with their trusted well-known name brand.

And I'm not saying that to give anyone false hope or to tell someone you know Don't stock up I think you should definitely have stocked up by now.

But I just looked up all three major carriers to see if they delivered alcohol. And all three of them say no they don't But I can go online right now and get alcohol shipped to just about any place in the US right now and I'm assuming that there's a requirement for a signature on all of that there's some law that has some sort of legal and financial risk if a signature is not obtained but I can send any one of y'all in the US that's anywhere close to a major city alcohol right this minute

I think it would be the smart thing to do to buy a set up but I have no idea where to start or if I would want an RTA or a squonker. At this point value & items that are going to stick with me for the long haul are going to be my priorities.

You can use a sqonk mod with a tank too. I got a Geekvape sqonker and it even has panels to cover up the sqonk bottle to use as a regular mod. Pick up a couple RDA's you have it to try down the road. I haven't sqonked yet, but just incase I want to I have it.

I need to know where to score some Nicotine... Who's got the good stuff?

IMHO, asking who has the best nic is the same as asking what is the best color in the world. Not saying no one has better nic than another, but it seems like a question that ends in answers that put you right back at square one.

Here's a list of nic vendors.

I can tell you who have the cheapest prices and that would be Heartland and LiquidNicotineWholesalers (both on the list), but Heartland is out of PG and therefore out of PG-based nic right now.

 

[Ed Brown]

what is the best color in the world.

Blue, of course.

 

[Territoo]

Blue, of course.

I like purple.

 

[mcduffy]

Green, next to scarlet, if you never heard of blue.

 

[DavidOck]

ROYGBIV

Yeah, never know what else the FuDA has in store....

Great, another thing to worry about. Just did an inventory and I'm good on gold, silver, black and red, but really low on green and blue. @JCinFLA, you got any deals on green?

I've decided against squonking. I ordered an rta to learn to build on.

 

[musicalchairs]

Mods and tanks, yes. Nic, yes. Premade and/or drop in coils, yes. Other stuff can wait.

Working on it!

Quick update on the Asmodus battery analyzer. Don't know how accurate it is but it's looking good on consistency. I ran the capacity test on four almost new batteries. Each battery scored within a 10mah range three times. Ex, one battery scored 2685, 2678, and 2679. All four batteries had probably been used 2 or 3 times. The total range for all four was around 35.

That's for 3000mah HG2's. Run with cutoff of 3.0V and discharge rate of 2A.

Now I'm going to try it with older batteries.

Is there really any point to the UPS "Follow My Delivery" live map? This is the 2nd or 3rd time I bothered to try it and every time it's the same. Truck goes from 3 blocks away to the southwest of me, then I check it later and it's 20+ blocks away to the northeast of me. If I check it again it'll be here then there then god knows where else maybe a mile away

If you don't know how they route deliveries, it's a pointless "tool". It's like watching an ant walking on the sidewalk and wondering which direction he'll turn next at any given second.
