I have

Inawera
Ooo
Tfa
Fa
Cap
and more

And this seems to apply to them all as far as I can find.

Not sure on the others,but Capella and Tfa are both meant as strictly food flavorings,and were available long before vaping ever came about.You can order direct from both of them.I order direct from Tfa quite often,and have never had a flavor i wanted oos.Tfa has had a section on their site for a long time that states their flavors are not meant for vaping,and they ask not to be mentioned in any vaping conversation,as they do not want any involvement in it.
Flavors that are designed for vaping,like One stop,etc. are the ones we will have trouble getting.

I'd have to look at my stock to figure out which is which, but I'm pretty sure I have at least 2 capella flavors I use for a recipe that aren't even listed on their site. Only place to purchase is a vaping site.

That's very possible,i don't use too much Capella,so i don't follow much of their stuff,so they may have some vape specific stuff after all,unless maybe it's something they discontinued,i couldn't say for sure though.
Also,on Tfa,i should have reworded that last part too,they do have a disclaimer about not using their flavors for vaping,and not mentioning them in vape related conversation,but at the same time,they have done a lot of testing for the bad stuff,and came out with diketone free versions of several flavors,so they are embracing all the extra business vaping has brought them,whether they want to be associated with it or not haha.But for the most part,at least 99% of the flavors will still be readily available as they are almost all food flavorings.

I suspect discontinued or special order as well.

Though... to curb an underground movement, FDA henchmen COULD enact a directive where flavors can't be transacted by direct point of sale direct to public.

Same way a pastry chef can pick up a 6 foot tank of food grade (or medical grade) laughing gas used for injecting pastry fillings... but the general public... fat chance.

The move is too obvious. Make it a controlled substance "for our own good".

Seems ridiculous... UNTIL you consider the mindset of and who is the opposition. FDA, WHO, BT, CDC, BP, BG, SENATE...

Consider spray paint is a controlled substance requiring I.D. in most municipalities. Though realistically HIGHLY more harmful both physically and in potential property defacement costs.

We're not fighting realism here though. :blink:

"Flavors are for attracting and hurting kids and MUST be stopped" is what we're up against.

Of course, only speculation. But I'd be a little worried about specific flavorings and not one bit worried about pg or vg.

I've been buying nic here and there since 2011. I just ordered another 500 ml. Then got to thinking and ordered another liter. I now will have about 4.6 liters of 100mg/ml. At a conservative rate of 50mg/day (that's a little more than I do now and I've been steadily stepping down about 0.5 mg/ml per month) that would last me 30ish years if it stays good that long. I also ordered more glass bottles for storage. 2 cuboids and 6 rebuildable tanks. I'm assuming flavors, vg and pg, and plain old 18650s won't be banned. In my retired but still usable box I've got 2 provaris, an ipv2 and a nemesis mech plus various pro tank pieces and parts. I will probably buy more here and there before 2 years are up, and hope for black market options for tanks and mods if needed later.

I don't quite understand why cigars will have the same grandfather date implemented and menthol cigs are being banned. How does that help bt make more money? Who cares whether ppl are smoking menthol or normal tobacco?
Compromise as a guise.

We compromise our options.

BT looks like they're losing something in the battle too.

BG looks more consistent as if they truly care.

BG, BT & BP regain every penny they would have lost to vaping.

It's convoluted, but carefully crafted to make the overwhelming populous of media informed sheeple believe they've formed their own opinion. As the opinions we form on our own, we tend to hold truer to, believe in and rally around.

Now armed with "their own" opinions, the public backs the decisions to "save our children"

OR simply doesn't fight back because the face of reality isn't shown until it's too late.

Woo! Black market. A business I can get into. All these regs driving me crazy. I'll set up shop in the boot of my focus/input any standard cars in you see in the states

Haha. If I didn't have kids and a husband (who would kill me) I'd be ordering pure nic from China and making 'moonshine' for gobs and gobs of money in a few years.

Exactly! When I want your opinion I will tell you what it is!
