I can appreciate that, everyone will use what it best for them. I am not rich or well off by any means, but if it is something that I like, I will find a way to make it happen!

I think if you really like something and really want it enough, one can always make a plan to afford it. Another thing to consider is our drawers full of unloved horrible cheap stuff. Sometimes it's better to just go for the gold and you may end up actually saving money and stress in the long run. On the flip side though, some things in life are just overpriced. For eg. Since I am just an average person, (not a millionare) I can't ever see myself paying $2000 for a handbag or pair of heels, no matter HOW nice they may be.

i want some $2000 heels and a bag... oh wait, did i just say that out loud? haha

i would like to try some of it. maybe next time i head back to the states, ill be able to get a sample. just cant see myself spending the money on something based purely on reviews. been burned way too many times with MBV flavors based on reviews alone. found some great ones along the way, but that 200ml order of MBV RY4 still chaps my *** a bit...haha it was so bad, that ia actually enjoyed watching it go into the toilet. i was making swirlys in the bowl with it...haha

Hi there, I visit Japan 4-5 times a year on business, love the place. So far I have not met a single vaper there, some of my smoking buddies there find vaping very interesting but say it is not popular and hardly any vape shops. If yall know of any vape places in Tokto, Osaka, Kyoto or Odawara let me know and I will pass it on to them. Will be there next week, is it cold already?

You can send him stuff, no problem. Although 1 of the guys in Okinawa had some stuff confiscated. Where is your dad?

P.S. I wouldn't write ecig s and nic ejuice on the waybill though. Call it something else, like for eg. 'lung guard' and 'flavor drops'.

Konban Wa,

the Japanese Drug Laws change normally in December every year,
is there anyone from the Japanese who is "up to date" and know something
about the legal Status of "Nicotine" and the vaporizing of it?
Is there a Change coming, are we becoming even more illegal or a bit more legal?

@ MiJ,
my knowledge of Kanjis is still tooooooo limited for legal Language & Text,
we need someone who is native to be on the safe Side.

Brix, Bricks? How was his name?
Are you still here?

My Wife just said "Shoganai" even knowing that i hate this Attitude

Maybe the Japanese legal System have huge problems at the moment to "keep it secret"? :censored:

PS: soon we reach Day 1.000 since 3/11 but every single moment i fear
the next big one and the final, lethal Fall of Daiichi, i think i suffer from a PTSD.

I was watching the news the other day and saw a very good positive story on the ecig "craze" sweeping America, so maybe with more coverage like that, some big name start will start vaping and get everyone interested in it.
The only thing more powerful than Japan Tobacco would be if someone like Kimutaku or AKB embraced vaping. To think that the rest of the world is ahead of Japan in an electronic "craze" just amazes me. It has to be JT lobbying for big tobacco in Japan to keep juice containing nicotine out of the reach of regular customers. But big tobacco is moving to embrace the ecig with Marlboro's MarkTen, maybe big tobacco here will have a change of heart too.
