So there is now a flavor ban that will go into effect in the next two weeks and everyone here has questions. I'm wondering will I be able to order online? Nobody knows that I am ordering flavored e-liquid besides the company I decide to order from.

Hi Sloth. cold up there...I'm not sure, I think we can still order online but only because I haven't read anything that says that we can't - yet...
Flavored e-cigarettes in New York go up in smokeAny individual or entity with ownership in a retail, distribution or manufacturing company accused of selling banned flavors could face civil penalties of up to $2,000 per violation. Retail employees accused of selling prohibited flavors could also face civil penalties. Under the ban, a violation can be issued for each individual unit of flavored e-liquid that is possessed, manufactured, sold or offered.
Which of course raises the question: Where does a remote transaction actually take place? I believe the legal case is better for it taking place where the seller is located, but history also shows that lots of sellers in this field will not ship to states that prohibit it.Online sells is selling.
Yes, the heat's on.Hi Sloth. cold up there...

I believe the states have - Compacts and Agreements of States with one another.
Is not sales tax collect depending on where its shipped?Which of course raises the question: Where does a remote transaction actually take place?

That's how I read it, that it doesn't apply to a private individual who is not engaged in commerce.Yes, the heat's on.
That's saying possession of flavored e-liquid is illegal? What!?
ETA: oh, it's referring to possession by an employee, or employer I presume - not vapers... right?
Only if the state has an economic nexus law (some do, and some don't) and the vendor meets the criteria spelled out in that law. Most states went with the criteria that were deemed acceptable in the Wayfair decision by the SCOTOS, $100k in annual sales into a particular state, or 200 transactions.Is not sales tax collect depending on where its shipped?
A large percentage of these transactions are facilitated thru Shopify anyways. Shopify is headquartered in Canada.Which of course raises the question: Where does a remote transaction actually take place?

Generally, I believe it's legally considered based on where the buyer is located. That's how I have to pay taxes on product I ship. Which is why buyers are charged tax if the seller has a presence in the state the buyer is located. That part I know is predicated on decades old precedent, and online sellers still adhere to that.Which of course raises the question: Where does a remote transaction actually take place?

Yes, prior to the Wayfair decision last year, it was strictly a question whether the seller had some sort of presence in a state. If he didn't have any, then he didn't have to collect taxes on behalf of that state. But that has all changed now because the SCOTUS reversed decades worth of precedent based on its Quill decision.Generally, I believe it's legally considered based on where the buyer is located.

Yep. That's the pragmatic question.But practically speaking, OP can buy as long as the seller will still ship it there. Fredo isn't monitoring all internet purchases overnight. Probably never, but as long as the seller isn't afraid, he can buy online.
