Hey. I'm new here and i recently got interested in ecigs through YouTube. I've been searching online for webstores that sell them and I've found a few. I was wondering though since they are illegal in where I live, Singapore, what would happen if i were to purchase them and have them ship it to my home?


Don't think there would be a problem with hardware like batteries, mods, tanks etc. It's the nicotine liquids you'd have a problem with.

I have been vaping for 8 months. I probably have spent $1000.00 but have bought mods for my wife and daughter. I have spent a bunch on juices that were good for a couple of days then ugh! If I could have done it over again this forum would have saved me a group. There is some good info here. Unfortunately I allowed myself to make the same mistakes a lot of others have made before me. My daily use setup is a Lavatube with Valley View Vapes Triple V Tanks or simply a BOGE Carto and drip tip. I have just started DIY ejuice but not far into it yet.

Nice Scooter Dwolf111 I have a 2012 Heritage Classic

I must preface here, I drive a truck hauling very VERY large parts of airplanes and the company I work for just bought me a brand new $175,000 Kenworth so I decided to get a vape to use in the truck and only smoke while out of the truck. 2 days into the e-cig and I have quit the analog cigs completely. That was August 4th, exactly 2 months ago.

So here we go, initially $70 on some cheap Chinese kit and 2 bottles of juice from a smoke shop in Stanwood, WA. Still have them and still working perfectly as that setup is my walking around in the pocket vape. Then on my first trip home to Kansas I found a Vape shop in Wichita that is out of this world. That day was a $150.00 day because I bought a Smoktech SID, an Iclear 30, an eGo kit for the wife with a couple Iclear 16's, 6 different flavors of juice and 18650 battery and charger. In addition one of the owners gave me a Inno pass-through battery to try and let him know what I thought since I'm driving all day. He wanted real world feed back from every day usage. Well I added an Iclear 16 to it and it rocks, still have it too and as a result of my feedback the shop is now stocking it.

The next trip in was just for a couple bottles of juice (they mix everything right there in the store and it rocks). Wife bought another Iclear 16 and a lanyard then we both bought hard side cases to put our expanding collection in. I had looked at the Itaste 134 both times, held it, caressed it and put it back. So on our way home we stopped at the cell store to pick up a case for my new Galaxy S4 and while there I bought one for the wife. The next morning she said she's running to town to get a case for her new phone and two hours later she walks in the door with a case containing the Itaste 134, 2 more batteries and another charger all for me for getting her a new phone. (Yes I paid full price for the phone so she got off cheeeeep)

Then just this last week I got an Octopus RDA as well as a couple more bottles of juice.

All in, we're at about $500 in vaping but I haven't bought or smoked an analog in 60 days and I was smoking 1.5 to 2 packs of Marlboro. So at an average of 1.75 PAD at $5.50 each I have saved about $575.00 that I would have spent on analogs not to mention what the wife has saved although she still lights one a couple times a day.

Dollar for dollar, about a wash but I haven't felt this good in 20+ years and I haven't noticed how bad analog users smell in at least that long. My new truck still smells new and I don't use half a roll of paper towels and half a bottle of Windex every week cleaning the tar of the inside of the windows. Food tastes oh so much better but all of the sudden hot peppers or wasabi that wasn't so hot is almost too hot.

I'm casting my net far and wide in search of "the one" though I'm beginning to doubt I'll ever find it. I tend to buy 3/4 10ml bottles at a time and one of them is always the best vape ever in the world but then the next lot comes in and ooh...maybe this one!
It's good fun looking though :)


I'm having fun finding new flavours too. Seems like a never ending search !. But as time goes by i come across a flavour that i love. As always though i do get some that i hate. The vendor that i'm using at the moment has an extensive range and the best thing is they send a free 3ml sample with every order so that's pretty handy. Some of the flavours i now use are a result of free samples i'd tried. :)

Well in 2009 I spent around $1800 on equipment and liquid, got out of it because of the PITA at the time. Now I am back with all this new cool stuff that is so far ahead of what we had in 2009. To upgrade and have backups of backups I am at around $580 for equipment and liquid, at the moment. I am looking at another couple $100 for a little more stuff and liquid. I figure it will hit close to $1000 by the time I am set.

BUT, when I get up in the morning, I am NOT hacking my lungs out, THAT IS WORTH A LOT MORE THAN $1000, IMHO

Vape On
