I wonder if we need to disable Do Not Track on our browser? Might help with not getting bumped to the more intrusive part of a vendors AV setup?
List of vendors Age Verification requirements.

Doubtful. And that particular setting in your browser is nothing more than a request. Websites can still ignore the setting and track you anyway.
I just ordered from Heartland yesterday (Sunday). Got an email this morning requesting a copy of my license or other ID with age/DOB. Accepted a driver's license with the DL number blacked out by email. Got a response within a half hour that all was good. No idea if there was something else behind the scenes that did not complete, but I doubt it.
Anything on Heartland Vapes? I need more Nic
I placed an order with Heartland Friday as a returning customer and nothing came up at checkout. I immediately received a order confirmation and "transaction receipt" e-mails, one stating "allow 2 - 3 business days processing time. Nothing since, so has not shipped yet.
I guess watch for an email from them with a request for further ID if they can't process without it. This is the text of the email I received from them.
"Due to recent FDA regulations – we now have to verify that any customer receiving a product containing nicotine is over the age of 18 (21 in some states). Our new website verification system is still working out some glitches to be 100% compliant. So in the mean time we do need you to fax (405-445-0862) or email over a copy of your Driver’s License or other form of ID (with proof of age). Unfortunately, we cannot ship this out until the age verification is complete, so please get this over to us just as soon as you can and we will ship your order out as soon as we receive it.
Thank you!"
For those on the fence about sending a company a picture of your drivers license like I am but need/want to order from somewhere that requires it I thought I would share a method that has been working for me so far.
Instead of sending them a photo of my drivers license I've been sending a photo of my weapons license (concealed carry license, concealed weapons license, whatever your state calls it) and haven't had any issues.

I was going to place an order with Hoosierecig and during the finalizing of the order (had put in all my info except CC info) a box popped up to verify my age. When it got to the point of asking for my cell number so it could text me the verification code I backed out of the whole mess. If I had been given the option of receiving it by email I would have completed the purchase. I refuse to put my cell number out there. I know there are ways around that now by getting a google cell number but there is nothing I need bad enough to let them make me jump through hoops to buy their product.
edited to add: I should have said I won't jump to the verification companies hoops. I do feel for the vendors that are having to go through this with us. I am feeling their pain too. It can't be easy for them
I'm with you there; I refuse to put my Cell Number out there for any online vendor. I had to do the same with Thunder Vapor I think it's called. One of the ECF Advertisers. And then the site made it difficult to delete the items in the Basket so I left them there.
I won't shop any site that verifies my age in that manner
Lightning Vapes is now using Veratad. Changed it on the list.
I received an e-mail with tracking number and my order has shipped with no additional information requested. I guess it helps that I was alive and kicking the first half of last century.
Placed an order from Mr Vape a short time ago. I guess whatever they are using is unknown. I did have to specify my birth-date twice.
I didn't see them on the list but if they are sorry.

Just placed an order with Sweet-Vapes and there was no sign of BlueCheck.
There was something I wanted and they were the only vendor that I have dealt with before that had it. I fully planned on not completing the checkout and contacting customer service for an alternate way when the BlueCheck crap came up, but it never happened.
CC entry section seemed a little different then the last time I used them, and the verification delay took an extra few seconds than last time. Not sure if they received enough complaints to dump BC or if it is still a fall back if their new unobtrusive systems doesn't like you. Just thought I would pass on the info.
