Dive, the current trajectory is not good for almost every vape shop. The cost of the applications are absolutely impossible for 99.9% to afford and they will have no choice but to close up. Juul, and perhaps a couple/few big tobacco companies might be able to afford it but that will be it (coincidence?). There are no grandfathering clauses for any vape shops. May, 2020 is the deadline date. Unless something changes, it will be illegal to sell vape products after this date without an approved application. Our only hope to delay or avoid this will come from something we are unaware of at this time. I'm not clear if nic solution will be included. But the best defense is to stock up on nic and gear and learn DIY.
