On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

[Two_Bears]

I smoked from 1978-2012, abd i tried cold Turkey, nicotine gum that made me sick as a dog. I tried Nicoderm CQ patches but i was alleegic to the adhesive on the Patches, and I tried hypnosis.

I thought i would smoke for the rest of my life and die an early death from Enphyxema (SP) or COPD.

I found vaping and now i am Nicotine free for the first time in about 38 years.

Then there's the worry about customs......

Not for a while yet. If Congress fails to act we may have parcels seized a year bor more down the Road.

I just have the impending feeling of doom.

Things may become tighter but being here makes it much more likely that you can have a game plan and a community to back you up as we wade through this mess. Just like the early days when vaping products and info were pretty precious, we will pull each other through to stay off the smokes. Those bubble wrapped footballs of stuff from China will still find their way to us more often than not!

I don't. But i prepared.

I feel sorry for those that WILL be forced back on cigarettes, of chose not to prepare.

Well noone will be forced per say, you could just lay down vaping all together and be free from both.
What i feel more sorry for is new vapers or smokers that's looking to quit. They'll be back to hardmode way of quitting.

Spending a couple hours to get more peace of mind.

My goal tonight is to do a full inventory of my vape stash, which is five years of random accumulation combined with targeted stockpiling of stuff I like that was being discontinued. Hopefully I'll end up with a short list of additions to support my 10-15 year plan. I think I'm pretty well set, but I want to KNOW I am!

Even with two liters on hand and three on the way, I'm still thinking about another liter or two of nic. Damn FDA.

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

Exactly right.I work in a food manufacturing plant,and we use several different liquid flavors,and every one of those are pg based.

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"

Exactly. Not sure why people are thinking that PG based flavors just became available once vaping came on the scene. They have been out there as a base in food flavoring for a long time. It has not always been just water or oil based flavorings.

Anyone else feel like they are on a roller coaster ride until 8-8-16? I have been on a drunken sailor (no offense sailors ) buying spree since I heard the word deeming/FDA in the same sentence, every time I think I am done buying, I think, this is your possibly last chance to get that or try that, just go for it! LOL

I feel the same way. Trying to talk myself down a bit. I don't think I am stocked up for the rest of my life, but I think I'm stocked enough to taper down in my own time with no rush should I decide to do so. I figure I'll pick up a few more things on Fourth of July sales.

Or I may have to take a Vapecation at some point if things get tough to find in my State.

Yup, and it's really starting to effect me with stress and I'm really getting tired of the whole thing.

 

[Iron Molly]

I find myself wanting to stockpile other random things for absolutely no reason at all. This whole thing is really very stressful. So glad there is a group of people here that understands!

I hope you are wrong but we will have to wait And see.

 

[bnrkwest]

Yes it is stressful! I have had to prioritize as I know others have, even told myself forget juice, just get the basics.

 

[bnrkwest]

I think we have a new term Deeming Announcement Buying Stress Disorder! LOL!

It's nice to know I'm not the only one. I don't have much money. But, if I did, I would have spent thousands.

I know, I am trying to rein myself in, but let's just say this is the first time in years I carried a balance on my CC and didn't pay it all off! LOL

 

[Bonskibon]

Just have a couple more things before I feel ok. But even then I will be left with the feeling "just one more thing". Don't think the stress it's going to stop until 8/8 really for me anyways. That is unless we hear some good news. I'm just so over it already.
