Ok just how do you keep someone under 18 from using it? They banned cigarette vending machines years ago.

You better check to see if they are legal before you lay down 10K for one.

I see regulation coming!

dont know where you live but they never banned cig machines here, they are now in places people over 18 would be in the first place. just like this will be. like the liquor store at walgreens perhaps

 

[Absintheur]

I could see them in bars, especially in places where smoking in bars is banned.

 

[VapApe]

Well here is what I could find quick .

I still say you better check carefully before you shell out 10 grand.

They don't have cigarette vending machines in Ohio?

It'd be great if this would take off locally, but all everyone sees here are cig-alikes. I get plenty of funny looks and questions in my local watering hole with just a vGo and a tank and atomizer. Hell, I've got friends who don't even have a computer, so all they've ever heard of is disposables and Blu before seeing my "basic" setup. This would just confuse them.

 

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

you know, the whole e cigarette bar idea is really kicking my .... lately.

sell some coffee, sell some e cigs...pop in a vending machine...

 

[VapApe]

Well I found out you can have them in Ohio but with all the state rules and regs Its not worth the trouble.

So they mite as well be banned.

Believe it or not, our purchases through some of our vendors are verifying our age. It's done along with the credit card processing. The same expensive software could be used for the machines.....and as long as the teen doesn't steal mom's credit card, it could work.

I know none of us advocate teen e-cig use. E-cigs are for adults who want to either cut down on their cig use, vape in some places where they can not light up, or chose vaping as an effective alternative to tobacco use.

If they really want to make money, install them in airports! That would really get the smokers attention. I've always thought ecigs should be sold there. When I was a smoker, I would have paid a fortune for an ecig when my flights are delayed.

I live in FL and haven't seen a cigarette vending machine in years. Maybe I don't go to enough bars? I remember going to nightclubs a few years ago and they weren't in them.

As cool as this would be, regulation is going to be all over these machines if they do come into existence. More fuel for the fire, I think.

I was just in a restaurant a little south of Sarasota and when I went to the ladies' room, there in a hallway sat a cigarette machine. I was surprised since I hadn't seen one in years.

You know most states now have the scan-able IDs issued from DMV. In VA we have them. I actually carry my license in a money clip designed to prevent scanning my information without me taking it out. I would think these IDs could be equipped with a scanner to verify the user is of proper age. To me, the age of the product being an unknown is a much greater concern than the age verification. I am not ready to invest.

they have alcohol vending machines too. the way they keep minors out is to have a camera where you show your ID and the camera video tapes you. the feed gets relayed to a live personnell booth. there is a physical person who is interacting with you from a hub.

some of the alcohol machines are really quite involved. i saw one on TV that was inside a supermarket. there is a live person who is a sommelier of sorts. he recommeds different wines based on your feedback. its really pretty cool.

edit: found a photo. you can see the camera on the machine on the right. there is a mechanical arm that chooses your selection.

These would do extremely well in the casino.
