how does a person in Washington State stock pile nicotine? or any ecig product (now or in the future)

i can only figure they still by it across a border/black market/flea market
Along with the nic in the freezer I've stockpiled wire, more rda'S and RTA's that I can use and dove into the world of Mechanical Mod's.

I'm set, I refuse to let the FDA and government force me back to Tobacco!

I'm a greedy ....... though and have zero sympathy for those who didn't prep. It's not like no one knew that it was coming.

Actually there are a lot of people that don't know it's coming. People who still smoke and haven't ventured into vaping, new vapers that are just now buying their first cig-a-like at a gas station, people who've been vaping for a while but don't cruise this forum, and the rest of the folks that are still being misled by the lies in mainstream media.

We can only do our best to spread the word.

Sorry to hear this Truli. If they didn't have the stock they shouldnt sold it. A problem in inventory management.

Thanks :) I have a feeling they got hit pretty hard right after the sale was mentioned in this thread so the site might not have kept up stock count wise with the all at once purchases. They were very nice and apologetic about it in the email, I would shop there again for sure. I did find it on sale at VapeNW too.

It is for any tobacco products, currently in Washington State ejuice is not a tobacco product. That is until the FDA regulations hit, then we're screwed. Federal trumps State

Those I do have some sympathy for and will help as much as I am able to. I'm prepared and fully willing to teach DiY, coil building, mod building, etc.

Vaping may have been forced underground but we will win in the end. The Genie is out of the bottle and no matter how hard they try to put it back in they will fail.

I just built one of those magnetic stirrers, and here's my experience if you're interested:

Don't bother with the speed control pot - normal ones can't take the wattage and burn out quite fast.

You may have read not to remove the fan blades because it will upset the balance of the fan. Believe me, adding the magnets to the fan upsets the balance a whole lot more than removing the blades ever could - it will still be fine.
Removing the blades gave me so much room inside that I was able to use the fan frame as the case of the device - I just added a top and a bottom.

Only use a fan that will run off around 5v.
Many 12v pc fans will not turn at lower voltages, and this means that running off a lower voltage to slow it down (or using a potentiometer) won't work.
I had four old fans to choose from and only one of them would run at anything less than 12v.
The one that did work runs fine from a 5v usb wall wart.

This is the most important one: place your beaker on the stirrer with the stir bar in it, and then turn on the power.
Even at 5v, mine still runs too fast to capture the stir bar if it is already running when I place the breaker on it.
Starting it up after putting the beaker/stir bar on it gives the stir bar time to 'catch up' with the magnet.

Oh, and if you're using a hard drive magnet, use two, one stacked on top of the other.
I use a paint stick and rubber bands to hold the bottle to mix my juice, been using that same paint stick for over two years, and I get fresh rubber bands every time I buy celery ;) Some of you folks are way overthinking this stuff :lol:

Federal has nothing to do with State Taxes or State Tobacco Regulation. FDA is Regulation only at this point an FED Taxation is not (yet) in place.

FDA regulations classified vaping as a tobacco so it falls under current tobacco laws. Thus buying ejuice or vaping gear online or out of State is a Class C felony in Washington State come August 8th

Well Truli it still isnt right.

If you buy an item and pay for it. They should ship said item to your door PERIOD.

Yeah I was perfectly happy with my istick 50 watt, Uwell Crown with stock coils. Thought rebuilding was too much busy work and said never to mech mods. Then I saw the greed of government, proposed 85% wholesale tax on juice here in Washington . So I started DiY juice and RDA'S. Then the FDA BS and went all the way down the Rabbit Hole with Mech's. Kinda funny cause now I really love building and Mech's. Hardly ever touch my regulated Mod's now, only to test my fresh builds and to clean my coils.

So if it wasn't for Government I'd still be a happy Vaper buying retail gear and juice, paying sales tax on it all. They now have created an advocate on a mission. I'm sure I'm not alone

How's the quality of it? Been getting mine from Vape Clarity, very smooth.

Well, I'm currently mixing with a batch of 100mg/VG based that I bought in 2012 from MFS, and opened this past February. If you are intending to store it long term, choose the glass bottled version. A lil more, but it makes a big difference if you are going to store that long. The sale applies to the glass bottled too, AND flavorings. Probably everything. Picked up another liter myself.

Thanks, I just picked up a couple more liters, thanks for reminding me of glass. These two will be stored for a very long time so glass is best.

I stores my nic in #1 plastic bottles instead of glass

#1 plastic bottles are definitely for 1 time use only. They're not to be reused, nor used for sensitive chemicals or products, because they leach! Other products in them originally (ie. bottled water, soda products, etc), are fine from the product manufacturers for that 1-time use.

To be certain that you are choosing a bottle that does not leach, check the recycling symbol on your bottle. If it is a #2 HDPE (high density polyethylene), or a #4 LDPE (low density polyethylene), or a #5 PP (polypropylene), your bottle is fine.
