This thread seems odd to me, like maybe a troll looking for some evidence that on the forum he was told there is no nicotine in e cigs, and then using that to dis credit by selectively using only some of the posts out of context . Even though the OP appears to be asking about a particular issue and specific instance the same specific question keeps getting asked, "is there nic in my e cig". Maybe I am just paranoid, but this thread should be closed and the official answer is that no one knows what he has in his hand, so he either trusts the seller of the device or not.
