Well, if PA can tax a tax... game over.

Yep. I also think he might be in the top ten ECFers on being stocked with mods, toppers and wire.

I'm not even close there are people on some of the other threads that have way more then me. I see the ForSale thread is still open sure isn't much there. Maybe I'll add a couple of items and see if I get any bites. I didn't see 1 SX there and only 1 dna and it was a 200. I do really want to get a Blood Red Lavabox DNA75. They are nice and small think I will try to get rid of one of my Q's. I love the form factor of the ML so will keep both of those. And there really is not a big choice of nice DNA75's. I love the Therion but the Lavabox is so small and made in USA. Just about ready to go to town and pick up my new computer. I think it will work out just great. It even has bluetooth so I can listen to stuff through my hearing aids instead of having headphones hooked up and if I really want good sound quality get a set of bluetooth headphones so no wires to trip over.

Actually, many States already do that. Sales tax on the item that already has excise (sin) tax....

That one woman with Cap Lock Fever in the comments, tho. Why do people do that? It makes them looks completely crazy.

They said it was a tax by the FDA. No rebate, donate or anything else... Just send it to the gubmint.

Sounds like they lied through their drip tips to you. Plus, the FDA can’t tax anything (but they sure can spend them). However, saying what they did is easier than explaining what’s really going on. Just curious, does the store have anything posted about The Reaming, how to get involved, where to look for info, maybe join CASSA…?

Hum, I don't think tthe FDA imposes taxes.. But that could change too I guess!

Bite your tongue, don't be giving them any ideas.

Well, yeah, some of them have more stuff than FT. One reason FT is sold out of so many things, but you do have a lot of stuff and you get Brownie Points for knowing how to use it all!

Seriously, you can get Bluetooth through you hearing aids? Wait until I tell my father, he doesn't hear much with or without hearing aids. They got Bluetooth bullhorns?

Well isn't that what they have been doing with Cigs for decades now?

 

[Semiretired]

They - actually all states have been. There is a long list of taxes on taxes. Sales tax is the retail side - the other taxes are not - they have other titles so loophole...

And I would stand to say that this and the Big Tobacco Industry are the driving factors behind what Vaping is going through now. Sad as it is. One of the Local Vape Shop Owners the other day told me that since I shop Online Buy Now or forever hold my peace because soon that would stop. Which just verified what we've all been thinking and have planned for

Yep. The more expensive ones will do that.

Well, winter will be settin' in soon, been thinking about flushing out the cars cooling system and adding fresh e-liquid.
Ya think a 50/50 blend would be a little to thick when it gets cold?

I think 70/30 would be a better winter mix. And be careful with specific flavors, and no sweetener. Don't want to gunk the coils.

LOL - I use about 70-80VG. That might seize up a tetch

Wire? Temco. USA made. By Temco. Same price or (usually) cheaper than the rest. Always free shipping.

some of it (particularly 100 ft) is twice the price of say lightning vapes, but I bought my ss at temco anyhow. Also found out to really look at prices at Temco. 250 feet was 30 cents to less than a dollar more than 100 feet. 2.5 times as much for pennies more. But I love that Temco is USA made and sold

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that getting the flu is a great way to cut down on consumption. I've been all sorts of sick since Thursday; sinuses, chest congestion, chills, pain and fatigue, now coughing and sore throat. In the past five days I've puffed maybe four or five times and haven't even bothered bringing my unit in from the car. Yes I've been working and running errands this whole time. And I realized that I was only using it in the car because it was there. If this breaks the habit I may just be done with vaping altogether.

so sorry you're sick. Hope you feel better very soon

I have been lucky on the sick rout (colds and stuff) - nothing even bothersome in years.

same here except for one this year. My big decrease in colds was when I stopped being as mobile. Didn't get out around other folks too much. the one cold I got this year was one my gd brought home from school.

Yeah, I can remember when old Iffy was a big supporter of XL cartos and how they could never invent anything that would vape better...

jup he already said they were the emdccs he loved em! I hated em. Couldn't stand the filler carto material and something on the rubber whistle tip made my lips puffy and sore after just a few toots.

Simple fix. Get yerself a big pot. Lean over with your right ear facing it. It'll dump.
Warning... right eer only! Left eer kood be ifffy. (no relation)

maybe that's what is wrong.......I did it with the left ear

I been up to my eyebrows in stuff. Bought a new house, learned how to manage the swimming pool it came with, doing some traveling....all the things that get in the way of goofing off.

Now I find out the vapocalypse is for real....should have kept my head in the sand a while longer.

welcome back! Congrats on the new house!!

Because when you are writing you can delete things. Speaking, not so much!

I delete things when speaking all the time......or at least my brain does. Start a sentence..... halfway through, whatever else I wuz gonna say is gone!

My First and Last order story from efundottop --- we'll see how it pans out via a PP dispute. Not counting on getting my money back.

PP Dispute:

On August 6, 2016 I placed an order for 2 Kayfun Mini V3. These were listed as "Made by Tobeco" on your website. I paid a total of $24.98USD. I expect a refund because the product was not made by Tobeco. I received the items on Aug. 20th.

Aug. 20 - products arrived

Aug. 21 - emailed efun support notifying that the product is not made by Tobeco and requested a refund.

Aug. 22 - efun support replied they shipped what I ordered but said nothing about it not being made by Tobeco.

Aug 22 - i checked the efun website and the 'Made by Tobeco' was removed from the website product listing

Aug 22 - emailed efun support that 1.) they must have know it was not made by Tobeco and 2.) then changed the product listing to not include 'Made by Tobeco. Again I requested a refund because the product was not made by Tobeco

Aug 23 - efun support answered my email with the following "we write wrong information on out web, there is no Tobeco now we changed the information on our web , sorry all the inconvenience please understand “

Aug 24 - I started this formal 'dispute' via Paypal. I would not have purchased the product made by an unknown manufacturer. I only purchased it because the original product listed stated "Made by Tobeco". I expect a refund of my purchase because the product is not "Made by Tobeco" as listed. Note: the URL I supplied w/ this form is a cached version of the product page where it is specifically listed as "Made by Tobeco".

wow hope PP comes through for ya. Really sucks the etopfun or whatever acted like that. Don't think I would have ever bought from em anyhow, but definitely won't now.

but I do want to try Ti in my DNA. It may already be in my DNA I have a Ti rod in my leg.

hehehe now that is commitment!!

RL SUCKS! (sorry about the cap locks, Kenna It's just THAT BAD!

sorry life is kickin ya in da britches hun!

Still really bummed about @amoret, to put it mildly.

meeeeeeeeeee tooooooooooooo

I like when Patrick gets enthused with a new piece of gear. I get to try it vicariously through his posts w/o spending money for it.

hehehe jup!

^^^^^^^^^
Pat speek fer jup!

They said it was a tax by the FDA. No rebate, donate or anything else... Just send it to the gubmint.

Jup they either don't understand or fibbed to ya. They have to charge because the deeming doesn't allow free samples to be given away anymore. Most contests have stopped now, except for the ones from China. One US vendor found a way by giving a "huge discount" on items as a prize lol

we keep most uv our laffs on da bak portch.

I know we're apposed to.......but cents win????

Yabutt shipping is ALWAYZ free. So it usually still works out.

Jup. Datz da intake eer.

it is at LV too. But with getting 250 ft at temco, it worked out bout the same. And LIS, I trust temco more

Those T-mods look great!

Thank You!
Hahaha! Sorry... I wasn't clear about that on my post. Both of those pics are of the same T-Mod. It has black hexes on one side and red hexes on the other. Guess I shoulda 'splained myself better.

Your and Von Vapes scores are stupendous!

I hate the appearance of my DTs, but they work the best for me.

I have noticed that squonking is is becoming more popular lately. Even saw some on on FT. It doesn't matter how people vape (safely, as long as it works for them).

Thank you! I've never really paid much attention to drip tips... as long as they were wide enough bore to get the job done... The vast majority of my drip tips are whatever came with the attys.

Saw a hellacious article today about the dangers of vaping but can't seem to break the link.

It said vaping emits formaldehyde that irritates the eyes, causes plaque in your arteries, facial skin problems, reduced brain development, can make you addicted, etc.--lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

What a crock.

Good grief. And that is why there is a huge misconception that vaping is evil and must be stopped at all costs...
