Has any one heard this news?
A large vaping dealer in Western Australia was defeated in court by an idiot judge who ruled that Vapes are tobacco products and as such can only be sold by licensed tobacconists. He was subsequently closed down by the Dept. of Health in Western Australia. Now friends, consider this, this judge by his ruling has created an inadvertent Pandora's box. By his ruling, he has declared that a Vape or E-Cigarette is a tobacco product and an alternative to the stinkies, therefore, if I am not mistaken a licensed tobaconist or any one that obtains a tobacco licence can legally sell Nicotine E-juice????? Tobacco licences in my state cost $350 per annum to obtain and if so then can one legally sell Nic E-juice to anyone over the age of 18 years????
I hope this is true, and then we will not have the problems and costs of trying to import Nic E-juices and bases from overseas which when the freight factor is considered can be quite cost prohibitive and I myself have been ripped of by a certain dealer in China when I paid with my C.C. they took my money and never sent the goods. Yes it took me three months to get my bank to cancel the transaction and get my money back. Is it any wonder I will only buy from merchants that accept PayPal. Indeed this is difficult to do in America as Pay Pal has placed a ban on the sale of E-Cig products in the states. So has Ebay for that matter. Alas, I had a few contacts in America where I was interested in their products, but having been scammed I refuse to put my C.C. online to anyone any more
