Are you stockpiling / hoarding due to fear of the upcoming FDA announcement?

I assume that you're from the USA. Are you donating?

P.S. Always make time to read the thread.

Correct, and I apologize...I forget how popular the forum is with other counrties. On the bright side, you don't need to worry about our court system ;)

Not at all a troll post. I have had a monthly donation going for over a year. I could have had an extra provari by now.

Everything the government does, it does badly. To interfere in the process would be the opposite of free market capitalism and since they've pretty much declared war on that, I think interference is inevitable. I don't know to what extent, but they can't just let a good thing go on and not meddle in it somehow. I wish they'd just let the market decide what happens with e-cigs. If they want tax money, then encourage small business growth with B&M's and get sales tax.

thought about it still working out the math I use 120ml of juice a month so I would have to stockpile enough nic, PG ,VG, flavoring to last say the next 30yrs? Its hard stockpile something you consume.


PG,VG and FLavoring can't be touched in this they are used in far too many things. Just stock the nic that is the likely choke point. :)

Though nic has a limited shelf life. I've heard a couple years is about max though that's in comparison to the situation at present. If there were a ban, you can bet people would be willing to accept lower quality.

IMO- a 3 year supply is probably enough. After the dust settles and times goes by, the ecig market will likely be ripe for some sort of deregulation. The initial regulation is going on the RUSE that it's a safety issue. With the amount of unknowns about ecigs, it's easy to push that angle even though we know the intentions are something completely different. Once there's mainstream acceptance that ecigs and liquid has little to no danger then things have a chance of reversing.

Of course I'm praying nothing drastic changes anyway but I have plenty of doubt. With all this being said, I have a 5 yr supply in the freezer.

i am just getting started to DIY... this last thursday was payday, so instead of my usual $25ish on ejuice, i bought DIY supplies. 250ml of 48mg.. which if i reduce to 12, should last me about a year. i filled up my shopping cart before actually logging in to the site, and to check out i had to log in, and didnt realize that when i did, it added stuff that i had added to my cart from when i was logged in a couple days before. so i wound up with an additional 250ml of 24mg. oops. so thats another half a year's worth. =P and then last night, im reading the FDA thread, and im thinking omg i bet everybody is stocking up.. so i went to the DIY place to see, and sure enough, 100mg sold out. 60mg sold out. 48mg sold out. 36mg sold out. 24mg sold out. 18mg... in stock! 500ml for $20... i had to buy it =P so now i have 2.5 years worth, and if im smart, i'll reduce to 6mg now, and stretch it out to 5 years. =)
