Greetings from Central NY!

Hi, all --
A 35 year smoker (25 years Camel shorts ), 1 PAD, just learned about e-cigs 2-1/2 weeks back (the new NYS tax). Bought one package (a lesser known brand -- available for pass it forward for anyone who wants to play with a 3 piece unit), then found the forum.

Read a bit here, then picked up a KR808D-1 from NHaler. Down to onesy-twosy analogs a day (1 today), hope to be off the analogs pretty fast (thank God for 24 mg cartos).

Just picked up another kit, for a friend, from another supplier (Vapor4life, as NHaler didn't have the base kits in stock right now), hopefully my sister and her husband are also about to start vaping.

Anyhow, thanks for the super info on the board, and the excellent, hassle-free suppliers NHaler and V4L.

Welcome to the forum, Markfm. Lots of great info and helpful folks abound. Good luck!

I wonder how long it will be until NY figures they can/have to tax this as well?!?!?!?

Edit: they started coming after loose tabacco a few years ago - this will be next. Hope I'm wrong.

I suspect the Gov and legislature play Revolver all day, are hooked on "Taxman"

They might not have a clue ;( Yet.

I to am new to the ecig community, but have over the last month experienced the cost and associated enjoyment associated with ecigs. I started with a Revolver Elite, which is a good smoke with short battery life, then moved to the Modern Vapor 902 which has longer battery life, but lighter vapor, then I really got the bang with the VPYR and a DSE801 atty. This is probably the closest thing to analogs that I can imagine. I am 6 weeks without a Vantage and I love it.

I feel pretty lucky -- my first buy was a whoops, but no big deal. I really like the 808, and NHaler's Marl 24 mg taste good to me, as does V4L's Dunhall 24 mg (tasted harsh at first, but I really like it just a few hours later).

With NYS taxes, a few misses on e-cig items are still quickly made up by not smoking $10 a pack analogs (that's the actual going rate here -- NYC has it worse).

Hi,
I saw today price for a pack of Capri - $12.49 in NYC.
You made a really smart financial decision of vaping instead of smoking, plus all health benefits.

NY state has a bunch of schnooks running the state... If there were one rule it would be: pay to play. Taminy hall at its best the most corrupt state in the universe, let alone planet, galaxy... Sad but true
