I first posted the following message under E Cigarette Suppliers Forum
Hello dear people.
My name is Les Harrison,
I found your forum through Googling.
I have been smoking for 45 years and would like to try this alternative.
The problem I have encountered is I am in Australia and the Australian government doesnt allow retailers to sell from within Australia. This is because in Australian according to a spokesperson for the Federal Department of Health and Aging, every form of nicotine except for cigarettes are classified as a form of poison. So we are forced to look overseas. It is interesting to note that Australia would be one of the dearest countries to buy cigarettes in the world. $15 per pack of 25. Our government is right now in the process of pushing to raise the cost to $1 per cigarette. They claim this is to discourage smoking but still they deny the alternative.
This leaves us with the easiest method of payment being PayPal.
So a supplier who can ship a starting kit to a private Queensland Australian address and accept PayPal as a method of payment is what I am looking for.

When I wrote this I was not aware that paypal are putting pressure on e cigarette sellers
I am now aware of this and feel the statement would be better placed here.
For some reason they wont let me put a message in Classifieds for buy and sell.
What I really need is a starter kit even if it is just made up of bits and pieces but unless I go usb power then the charger could become an issue because here we run on 240 volt 50 herts with a different plug system.
Anyone that can help me get started with this would be appreciated.
