Well won't be changing my mood icon anytime soon. Just such a sad 'thing'.
"...
ProVape is now closed.
Due to upcoming FDA regulations and restrictions, we have made the decision to cease production and close operations.
We want to send out a HUGE Thank You to all of our customers, dealers and vendors around the world for your support and for sharing your stories and photos with us over the years.
This has really been an amazing experience and we were privileged to have you as our customer. It's been humbling to hear all the success stories and we are truly blessed to be a part of your lives. Thank you!

Roll back to 6 years ago. Little 510 cig-a-likes didn't do it, eGo's were somewhat better, but my 1st Provari did it. A 40 year smoker became a vaper. Thank you Provape.
My first Provari, 2nd Edition Black Chrome P2 (later updated to P2.5)
When I bought the 1st one, someone said ... when are you getting another. Yep, I got another and another and another ....
This is a shot of just some of the current Provape family. Bunches more around, yep. Both my wife and I pretty much vape just with Provari's now after trying lots as well as the 'new' fangled temp control ones.
They just work and the work just fine.

Yes it is sad that they closed up shop. I think we all suspected it to be coming. In the last few months so many of my fav vendors have closed up.
Is there somewhere else that is carrying the Provari line?

Was stressed out and didn't come in a couple nights ago. Then the internet tower got fried by lightning in the biggest, loudest blast of lightning I've ever heard. At least it went out with a bang.
Get internet back tonight and go to ProVape to get a couple of small items and they've closed shop.
. I loved ProVape but a week's warning would have been nice. 
I lost quotes again. Happy Birthday to Legs and Little Birdie!
Welcome to the porch, @NU_FTW !
I forgot about the FlamingoTutu Tropical Cherry!
Very nice find! Thank you for posting. Yep, fake news, no one will listen.
Aw, thank you Deb!
I have a couple of flavors in the cart and will order them after I get off here. These days I just make a plain base and add a couple of drops of flavor into the tank to test it out. But I really do appreciate it.
I loath that packaging. Got a new computer mouse today that was package like that. Always end up stabbing myself with a sharp corner trying to free the contents. Might lose my mind trying to get all those little bottles out.
Very nice collection!

I'll also recommend FA at least for fruity flavors. Most of my flavors are FA, and some Cap and some INW. I do have a few TFA now but that's recent. Pm me what you'd like to try and if I have it, I'll make ya some juice to see if it works for ya before you go buy a bunch of flavorings. Let me know your pg/vg ratio and nic level again, cuz yanno I forgot lol
that's so fantastic hun. Really hope he takes to it. That's sweet of you to offer to buy the gear from him if it doesn't work. Works for you I reckin if it's stuff you can use.
If they aren't likely to smoke, I'm glad you got them to stop vaping. They know about it, and know that if they absolutely have to do something, that's way better than cigs, but if they aren't hooked on either one of em, no point in them doing either one of em.
That's awful! Pack the nic in boxes, how would they even know what is in there?
that's great! Britain gets it, but then, they don't make a fortune on big pharma there, so of course they'd get it. I'm sure the FDA also gets it, they just choose to ignore it. Money is far more important than people far as they're concerned.
welcome to the porch! Tell us bout yourself. We love stories.
Aw, thank you Deb!

But I really do appreciate it. So I finally have no excuse to not have a major mixing day. Through the oddities of our local post office (only open 2 hours/day and no street delivery) I ended up getting all of my pending mixing supplies at once.
I got my new Inawera flavors from Poland (that seem to have been in customs for 6 weeks),
a bigger holder for my flavorings and
the replacement to my trusty label printer.
Not really shiny/fancy vapemail - except maybe the flavors. I ended up going to the Polish site to get a bigger batch of my only tobacco flavor, but as long as I was shopping there anyhow...
I'm especially looking forward to trying "Green Spring Tea" since the name is odd but the description is for Jasmine Tea.
the one drawback to the flavor order is that each of the 8 10ml flavors is packaged in its very ownplastic clam-shell package.

dang darlin.......y'all have the worst stuff with internet. There is a link that is selling what provape has left. Not sure if it's just mods, or if it's accessories too. ProVari Fuel E-Liquid
well let's hear it!

Oh no, provape gone?!! That's no good. I figured they might be one of the few that would survive. Oh dear, is it happening everywhere? I had trouble getting my usual order at Mt baker a few days ago. Prices have gone up, selection down. I've been searching for Aussie sites that carry lots of brands and flavors for diy juice. I don't think there is one.
How is everyone? What have I missed, besides the Trump thing?
Is there an American vendor that carries a large assortment of the brands and flavours? I'm trying to avoid multiple shipping charges.
I'm still kicking, it's been abnormally hot and humid over here. Like Florida in summer, ugh.

ecigexpress does, @Vape?, but not sure of their international shipping...
Thanks, David. I will look. Things much changed for vapers in US?
Spotty...
As far as the dooming, a few businesses have closed, Provape being the latest. But various States have done some ugly things.... some of which may be changed back, due to court or legislative means.
But in this world of alternative facts, their innuendo takes precedence over science... Yeah, some kid tried an ecig once, so now they're a "user." Like saying I tried vodka once, so I'm a Russian....
One of the key "filing" dates did get pushed off to later this year (or it would have been in effect already), so a lot of people still have their heads comfortably buried in the sand. And, in spite of what many of us here have been saying for, literally, years, many of those will still be totally surprised...

Just looked, and they do ship to Australia, but no indications of cost...
