WL will have to get a tobacco retail license after 8-10.

Also no mail order from WL? This from the FL statutes.

569.007 Sale or delivery of tobacco products; restrictions.—
(1) In order to prevent persons under 18 years of age from purchasing or receiving tobacco products, the sale or delivery of tobacco products is prohibited, except:
(a) When under the direct control or line of sight of the dealer or the dealer’s agent or employee; or
(b) Sales from a vending machine are prohibited under the provisions of paragraph (1)(a) and are only permissible from a machine that is equipped with an operational lockout device which is under the control of the dealer or the dealer’s agent or employee who directly regulates the sale of items through the machine by triggering the lockout device to allow the dispensing of one tobacco product. The lockout device must include a mechanism to prevent the machine from functioning if the power source for the lockout device fails or if the lockout device is disabled, and a mechanism to ensure that only one tobacco product is dispensed at a time.
(2) The provisions of subsection (1) shall not apply to an establishment that prohibits persons under 18 years of age on the licensed premises.
(3) The provisions of subsection (1) shall not apply to the sale or delivery of cigars and pipe tobacco.
(4) A dealer or a dealer’s agent or employee may require proof of age of a purchaser of a tobacco product before selling the product to that person.
(5) A wholesale dealer or distributing agent, as those terms are defined in s. 210.01, or a distributor, as defined in s. 210.25, may sell or deliver tobacco products only to dealers who have permits.
section (A) Agent - UPS - Adult signature Required

You could very well be right,at this point,none of us know for sure.But,the Intended use could go 2 different ways.Yes,our intended use is to make juice,but Tfa,Capella,etc. do not intend for their flavors to be used for vaping.In fact,at one time,it may even still be there,i haven't looked lately,but Linda,the owner of Tfa,had a disclaimer on her site stating that their flavors were not to be inhaled in any manner,and she was also asking that people stop mentioning them or their flavors in any discussion about vaping.This was a few years ago,so it may not be there now,but it definitely made the point that their Intended use was for food use only.
I'm going to say it once more... the deeming regs bestow the sole right to determine Intended Use on the FDA. Not us the buyers, nor the manufacturer of any particular product. Short of taking the FDA to court, I don't believe that manufacturers or consumers have any "right of appeal". Like most of the deeming regs, the definition of Intended Use is so vague that it is effectively whatever the FDA wants it to be.

This is not a matter of me being right or wrong. I specifically said I was not rendering any opinion as to what I might believe will or will not happen. Nor am I personally stockpiling flavors, although partly because I don't really mind vaping unflavored. @salemgold asked a specific question - Why are people stockpiling flavors? All I have attempted to do here is to explain at least one reason why someone might take a worst case view of the flavoring situation and the basic mechanics and implications of Intended Use.

The US is going to be the laughing stock of the world when they start putting vapers in prison...lol.

Might take a while.
Vaping is not being made illegal, just damn near impossible. Anything you attempt to buy, they can try to intercept - But Sale, not purchase will be illegal. Once you have it - it's yours. :D
However , if they do come for us, I will gladly step to the Front of the line and Lead the loudest outcry of the masses the FDA may ever hear. :cool:

It's my Vape - FDA KMA!:pervy:

I have both Nude and MFS nic. I vape 2mg and can't tell the difference. YMMV

Also, @crxess have you tried that 200mg nic you posted earlier in the thread? That is a really good deal.

Sorry, no. That is the Freshest of my purchases and at the Back behind 7 existing liters. I Never open to sample on large bottles.

To bad they do not use penetrable Seal plugs for test extractions.(hypodermic needles)

The flavor thing is going to be a hard call. I think it will come down to the name of the site selling them and what else they sell. Manufacturers may start to put not for use in ejuice or something similar on the bottles to cover their asses. Places like ecigexpress for example would be deemed for vape use, even the sweeteners. But something like tpa/tfa not so much. But the fda could pull a dick move and be like well its sold on one vape site so its that for every site and store.


As for them having pg in them, almost every flavor has it no matter what its used for.

I think flavoring companies created before vaping and for food (Like TFA) use will still be around. I am concerned that prices may go up some because of some loss of business. I am NOT saying that vapers make up the majority of their customers, but we do increase sales.

Some people will stock up on flavorings; some will not. Everyone has the right to their own, un-judged choice. I do think that those who use tobacco flavorings should stock up sooner than later. I don't use them, but many do.

There are some situations where stocking up on a flavoring is of some concern - when it is created by the liquid maker themselves. The one flavor my wife has preferred for about four years, Hypermint from Azure Vaping, is a blend Rob, the owner, developed himself. Although I can agonize through trying to match it should Azure stop internet sales or choose not to continue doing business, a stock is reassuring.

Proprietary flavorings only available from a vaping enterprise would be worth stocking in my opinion. The rest will continue to be available as they were before vaping arose.

Well said!

We vapers have had more than enough of the cancer sticks. Hundreds or thousands have broken the demon weed for better quality of life, better flavor.

Allow me to use Spock's quote from Star Trek 6 "The Undiscovered Country'.

" If I were human I believe the correct responce would be GO TO HELL! If I were human" Spock

I prep so i can make these Bureaucrats irrelevant, or tell them to GO TO HELL!

These Bureaucrats must be stopped or our liberty will cease to exist.

If memory serves Ben Franklin made a profound statement which I must paraphrase. Those that would trade liberty for Security deserves neither.

I guess I have cause to worry because hubs doesn't vape anything but the Hangsen tobaccos I DIY for him.
Searching out multiple international sources for that Hangsen flavoring should help you ensure he keeps getting those sweet homemade vapes no matter what!
