On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

[Jonner]

I think that nic needs to be in plastic for shipping concerns.

Nude Nicotine ships in glass bottles but they are wrapped very carefully, surrounded by bubble wrap and such.

But RTS does ship in plastic Amber bottles, and it's good nic as well.

I havent shared it yet, try it here and let me know if it will let you D/L it.

If you open it in Excel you will probably need to click the "Enable Editing" button in Excel.

Thank you SO MUCH FOR SHARING! I had no trouble opening it or editing and it's fabulous. Thank you!!

I agree Salem. The first few weeks after the deeming was announced I saw a lot of "not the newest" stuff marked down at fantastic prices. Looking around now, the variety of stuff marked down at great prices seems to be much less as stock has been depleted. I'm sure there will still be sales on some stuff, but unless a store is going out of business, and I don't think many will right away, I think the great sales will be harder to find.

I'm seeing that too, as I try to help new Vapers prepare and stockpile. I've converted two ppl so far and am running out of time. So scary.

Was wondering I know some new shipping regulations on nic concentrate were implemented early this year?
Maybe late last year.

Shouldn't be a problem to still buy from him after the rules go down.

Flashlights and Authentic AW Batteries - RTD Electronix

I find Amazon Prime to be very trustworthy, and their returns are ironclad. But I wouldn't risk buying batteries or "authentic" RDAs from non-Prime suppliers.

I'm getting all plastic (no glass) when ordering from Nude this year. Don't know if it's related, but just my experience.

 

[coilspotting]

Yes, I am aware of that. I figured the original poster would look at it and figure it out. No one I know of would seriously want to modify a pv just for a battery nipple.

Thanks for your confidence @Sugar_and_Spice

But I think it probably would've been kind to warn me anyway. Regardless, ProVape says don't use em, so I'm not using em. Button tops have been delivered and are on the charger yay!

And now, back to stockpiling!

Hey Dave, nice to see ya here. I've talked with you on your musicians thread.
Gonna get back there soon, got three (or more?) things I've been working on, and happy with, but man, since all this started all I've been doing is trying to get my stash complete and in order. Gotta get back to the music

 

[Bob Chill]

Making nic purchase decisions based on shipping container type isn't the best logic. I'll order quality nic in plastic over strong smelling and/or flavored nic in glass all day long.

 

[coilspotting]

Me too. Frankly obsessing on stockpiling to the detriment of all other responsibilities and am feeling it. Need to get back to the rest of my life, but I still don't feel secure enough (maybe one never does?). But I'm sure glad I've done it, and am so thankful and appreciative of all the kind support and good advice from all you folks. You're my heroes, and I mean that absolutely from the bottom of my heart. You've saved me endless agony from not responding to the warning in time, and no telling how much $$$ in wasted funds on needless mistakes. Thank you!

 

[coilspotting]

That's what concerns me. The longevity/durability of regulated mods is somewhat of a gamble, small portable electronic devices are at best delicate/fickle. 510 threads can be a problem for any mod (especially if they're brass) but stainless steel threading is pretty durable -plus- I use top fill attys so rarely unscrew them anyway. I do have several Katos and a few other mechs in storage that are -highly- durable so regardless of how things shake out I'm well covered but I think I'll add half a dozen Picos to the stockpile, should be enough to last a long while.




Lol... I hear you, I've spent more on nic, mods and attys in the past two months than in the three years prior but I'm well stocked and completely self sufficient for decades, nothing the FDA or states do will effect me. They'll not force me to do anything and won't be getting a single penny in taxes or fees.... that's my "happy" thought for the day.



Got mine from FastTech. $25 is FastTech's normal price for just the Pico itself, no clearomizer included; $25.23 Authentic Eleaf iStick Pico 75W TC VW APV Box Mod - 1-75W / 100-315C'(200-600F') / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping shipping is always free.

The Pico with a MELO 3 clearomizer is $35 at FastTech but I've seen them online from U.S. vendors for that price as well so I'd shop it first $34.73 Authentic Eleaf iStick Pico 75W TC VW APV Box Mod Kit - 2ml / 0.3ohm / 1-75W / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

With 4th of July sales just around the corner I'm sure there will be U.S. vendors running the Pico at great prices too.

Best price I can find so far for kit is $32.80 Best Price for Eleaf iStick Pico 75W TC Box Mod - Official Authorized

RTS Vapes - 15% off retail until July 6th - USA15 - Just an FYI for those who still need nic etc...

It sounds like you haven't ordered from RTS before. First time customers get 20% off with code FIRSTORDER.

Thank you for this. I knew I wouldn't feel right until I ordered a couple more liters, and I wanted to buy from a different place than I usually get my nic. Being a first time buyer there, the code got me 20% off. I feel better now.

I found Pico for $22 on Gearbest today, flash sale you could try it. They have a code too but not sure what is was. Sale is still on.

Ok, I think I might have to create a gofundme for vapocolypse supplies. Less than $250 will get me there(considering that I haven't bought anything but a liter of 100mg nic, and this total includes 3 more liters of nic). Moving and a sick wife are straining my finances...grrr...

On another note, the only thing I can think of that I hadn't already put on the list is FW Extreme Ice flavoring(I end up using about 2% in my ADV). Not sure of any decent non-vaping related alternative.

 

[coilspotting]

NOW THIS is what I WANT!!!
55 US Gallon Drum of 100 mg Flavorless Nicotine Liquid

Anyone wanna go in on the FIRSTORDER 20% discount with me lol*?

*it's listed for $8000.00 so yeah, maybe not. But a girls gotta dream, amirite?

 

[Burn_notice_fan_NY]

Looking for the spreadsheet nicotine calculator for stocking up. Does anyone have it saved? Debating on buying more nicotine and want to check it one last time. Thanks!

Thanks for the info. I had $75 of flavors in my shopping cart. I just ordered it for $60. And I still got the free shipping for being over $75.
Usually, I just drive down and pick stuff up from them but free shipping talked me out of it.
Thanks again for the discount code.
