No posts since Sunday. Are people really done stocking up?
At this point it's all excess. Not that it'll stop me from adding to my vapocalypse stash.
Cotton won't ever be a problem to get but I like 3mm threads with aglets so I order 6 or 8 bags every few weeks.

I set up a couple of pix to comment on a thread in a FB group last night.
Your typical "What are y'all ¥aping tonight? thread.

Dead soldiers scattering the field. It's due time for artillery.

We always have backups for our backups' backups' backups' backups.
or something

Nobody pops in to give us .... about stocking up on gallons of nicotine anymore.
Preppers always seem nuts until we're the last left standing. Not gonna taunt but #justsayin

I've never experienced that.

Reddit ECR has been attacked a few times since the mail ban with known vapers who are turning in to ANTZ. From the looks of it, seems to me they didn't prep so now they are looking to quit (or have quit - which is fine) and are trying to shame veteran vapers into quitting. So far I haven't seen that here.
There's also a person over there that claims to be pro-vape and claims to have a vape newsletter with a large following who blatantly tries to stop people from ordering nicotine from known/trusted vendors who are still taking/shipping nic orders, claiming they are all scammers (lulz). Now I remember why I left ECR.

That's why it's recommended you prep before doomsday, not during or after :lol:.

Um, I didn't decide to start vaping until 11/22. Did 13 days cold turkey after beginning of November. bought pack of cigs that lasted 5 days. Ordered after watching some you tube videos, some recommended sites (which I have since learned are suffering severe customer service issues, admitted by own employees).

One site, made one order hardware and juice, 11/22, second order hardware only 11/30. They both received tracking numbers and out for delivery same day (making the 11/22 order 8 days late already). Have no idea where anything is at (though they said I would know after getting tracking number). They don't answer phone nor respond to support tickets anymore (starting this week).

Other site, made juice order 12/1. Don't know if I will get it (since live in secure building, can't contact delivery people).

Purchased low end pod system, overpriced (along with replacement pods, which I am soon out of) back in November, 11/23. Local Vape shop. Good price on freebase 100ml juice.

Purchased Nicotine, 12/7. Have bottles for nic already arrived or on the way.

For someone just starting up, I think you could show a little empathy, since I didn't know things had changed until I started ordering. Peace.

    Your best bet might be to check the classifieds here on ECF.

    Geeez, lighten up bro. Didn't see my emoji? Besides, it's not reasonable to think people should assume that an account that registered in 2014 is a new vaper ;)

    EDITED TO ADD: Anyway, as I've said many times on this forum the past coupla weeks, any USA vaper trying buy hardware, China is your absolute best bet right now. Just need patience but at least you aren't paying taxes and with guaranteed no signature for deliveries.

    Sourcemore.com
    Fasttech.com
    3Fvape.com
    Vapesourcing.com
    3Avape.com
    2Fdeal.com
    HealthCabin.net

    Fasttech and 2Fdeal have the most reasonable shipping charges but prices can be a bit higher. On most things I have looked into, FT still is cheapest after shipping.

    The only thing that sucks about buying from china is, since Paypal dropped the ax on chinese vape vendors, if you want to use paypal you have to place your order the contact them at the email address they provide and they will send you an invoice from an alternate paypal address they have setup. It's not as convenient as it once was but it still beats paying taxes and circumvents American s:censored:show.

    Somewhere between here and there
    Last time I ordered from FT, I used PP.

    I heard if you try a couple of times, it goes through.

    But, that was in August.

    I saw someone say that FT has now completely stopped PayPal. I about fell over when Health cabin took Apple Pay about a month ago.

    I'm about as addicted to Apple as I am to ecf.

    Whatever.

    They still have a paypal account to use. But you have to send them a list of SKUs you want to buy, tell them to create an order manually in your account, then they will tell you how to pay with you paypal account.

    Yeah, that was then. That workaround doesn't work anymore as far as I can tell. Now they revamped their site and got a credit card processor so paypal can only be used as I stated above. Or you have to buy a gift cert with paypal and then pay for your order with a gift cert. They allow custom denominations of gift certs now, so you can buy a gift cert for 10.12 if you want.
