Here in Washington state, they think the same way the "other" Washington does.
$90.69 a carton ... yup $9.69 a pack.
And .. they are trying to pass every law they can think up to stop the vapers ... 95% tax, nothing vape related allowed to ship or mail into the state, no ordering over the web, or phone, including hardware, as it's "drug paraphernalia"
How do they stop the mail in's ... easy, it's against the law, so the suppliers won't ship here for fear of being sued for breaking the law :censored:
There is a big fight going on, cause as most of you know ... we have Provape (ProVari), and MtBakerVapor located here.

Unbelievable! No wonder the Australian government doesn't want anyone vaping. They are making too much money off of a pack of cigarettes!!
ah you hit the bloody nail on the head there Susan, they know we wont quit, so lets Tax the crap out of the poor old stupid smokers! and I think this week they are going up another $3 dollars a packet!

Also it's illegal to sell nic juice in Australia, it's very very sinister, and needs to be fixed

Now correlate this data from this thread ( i.e. price for a pack ) with the eagerness of local/national gubmints to regulate vaping out of existence... no surprises there.

Think there is a thread somewhere about Texas shelving a bill which would have changed legal age for smoking from 18 to 21. Main reason : less tax in the till.

What shortsighted politicos ( not sure if there is any other brand around ) are forgetting: Vapers go voting too - and their numbers are increasing...

We are legion :)

The last time I bought a packet nearly 6 months ago (YAY !!) they cost me €6.30 and I know they went up to €6.50 in January. They may well have gone up again since then but I haven't been into a Tabac since December (apart from once to buy a birthday card and I didn't look !!) You can only buy cigarettes from a Tabac in France and they are always the same price.

My wife was in Olympia helping her brother out when I started vaping. She told me what she was paying for a pack of cigs there and I talked her into getting an Ego started set-up. The set-up, with two ego batteries, two clearo tanks and a charger was a little over $80 (I could have gotten locally for less than $35, but I wanted her to start getting off the cigs). It was still cheaper than a carton of cigarettes for her out there!!!
