Good day all,

I'm new to this forum, however I'm not new to vaping. I got my first starter kit more than a year a go, I still smoke though.. the kit I ordered has a realy good quality but I didnt like the flavors in the prefilled cartos to the point that I give up smoking plus the lack of supplies in my country is another obstacle... recently I started searching and reading about what's new in the vaping world and I read about lots of new advances in flavors and hardware that vapers swear by..
so I'm thinking about ordering juice samples and upgrading my gear.. I know what I wanna buy, but I doubt I can get the ejuice through customs..

Shout out to all vapers in bahrain who read this article,

1. how do you order your juice?
Do you order it directly to bahrain or through a forwarding service?
2. Which forwarding company do you deal with?
3. Have you had any problems with the costoms or forwarding company regarding the order of ejuice or hardware?

Please help and advice on this issue... yeah, also I want some recommendations on nice tobacco e juice..

Thanx for reading my long post.. thanx in advance for any advice ;D

Hi M3N911

I'm from Bahrain too, i want to get e-cig kit and i don't know which way to go.

I had 2 bad experiences, the first is when i bought a very cheap Chinese product which was rubbish and the second when the customs caught my i-Taste which i order from fasttech.com

hello maas,

welcome to ECF!!
i ordered my first kit from smokeless image and shipped it to bahrain by a forwarding service company "aramex", but that was about a year and a half ago or so. back then they did not check the content of the packages, now everything i order is checked by aramex before they forward it to me, these days there is a chance that once they find out that the package contains ecig materials and liquids they might not forward it to me, thats why i posted this thread, so other vapers from bahrain can share their experience with shipping and customs.

okay, where did you get your first kit from and when was that?
how did you ship your order from fasttech.com? was it direct to bahrain or using a forwarding service and when was that?

i hope sharing our experiences will help us and other vapers in the county..

regards,

Still no response..

Anyways I have been thinking about this subject a lot lately, I thought about how to legalize the use of PVs in bahrain.
The only way to do so is to convince the ministry of health that these products are safer than tobacco smoking and that these are made as a nicotine replacement aid to help smokers quite the habit of smoking. My best bid is to contact the bahraini anti-smoking society and try to gain their support.
Right now I don't think it's beneficial to do so until we have enough studies from world known organizations that highlights the benefits of vaping over smoking and show the difference between them, also we need studies that show the effects and side effects of using ecigs. In addition, the manufacturing of PVs and liquids should have standards similar to the standards used to manufacture medical and pharmaceutical products(lab standards, production/expiry dates, liquid ingredients, pharmaceutical packing standards, warnings, etc..)

Sorry for the long post.. any input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance..

Hey..
I'm back.. I managed to get some juice.. I got hangsen mint and something called F Tank or F1 Tank I'm not sure, the latter is a watermelon flavor.. does anyone know this juice? (Picture attached)

Anyways, I'm not a big fan of mint nor sweet flavors but these are good enough for now, the guy who supplied them said he can get me some tobacco flavors like 555 and ry4 so I'm waiting now..

Hi, M3N911!

>> 1. how do you order your juice?

In the online stores.

>> Do you order it directly to bahrain or through a forwarding service?

Dirrectly to Bahrain.

3. Have you had any problems with the costoms or forwarding company regarding the order of ejuice or hardware?

Yes I had. They confiscated my second order and I have lost $240 :)

Since that time I order only parts of hardware :)
