    After reading that article, it doesn't appear to be as bad as it first seemed. Exports are still permitted, including flavored juice. The effects are mainly local sales and imports, plus the companies having to deal with their version of the FDA. As was mentioned before, what we will see is smaller companies shutting down and higher prices, but not a complete ban of products.

    I don't think it is a bad as it could be. China is cracking down on domestic vaping, but they aren't banning vapes or apparently manufacturing. Smaller companies will probably go out of business, but bigger companies should be OK. Here is a paragraph taken from that report that was in FranC post, about halfway:

    "The silver lining may be that the measures only explicitly prohibit the sale of flavored vapes in China, and do not appear to prohibit the production or export of flavored vapes. Chinese e-cigarette companies may therefore be able to continue to grow in overseas markets where there is a more lax regulatory environment, such as Europe and the US."

    We probably need to keep an eye on it, but it doesn't look earth shattering to us yet. Just my opinion.

    Yes, a tank or mod isn't flavored. Could be rough on the disposable market, though...

    Good morning. I’m really not worried about the China regulations. To me it seems like a money grab by their government.
    I’m sure it is but prices could rise which isn’t a good thing either. Not for me anyway.

    Ya, I agree. Inflation is taking a bite out of everyone right now. It hurts going to the supermarket right now and let's not even mention the gas station. Price for e-liquid have already gone up, they are going to have to be careful about getting too greedy though, because then manufacturing will move, say to Mexico or some other country. Let's hope that is enough to keep China from going crazy with price increases.

    I woke up way to early this morning and was lucky enough to get back to sleep but then I slept too late. Guess that’s ok cause nobody cares if I sleep late. I still have one more coffee to go.

    Today I hope to coil the Dvarw I’ve been putting off. I have another to wick also. My divider is down one mix so hopefully I can get another mixed.

    Morning, mixers.

    "Only" into the 80s today. Rising through the week to nearly 100 on Sunday. :evil:

    While Dad did enjoy all the visitors, he's also happy to have some peace and quiet.

    Well, sure, it's a money grab. Our money! And, unlike here, we don't even have the chance to have our voices ignored. :-x

    Glad your Dad saw so much family :wub: I bet it was nice for you too. I sure can understand why peace and quiet would be nice after that.

    Somewhere between here and there
    Work has been total chaos this morning. It's still raining so all the construction guys that can't work outside are coming in to our store. I got here and found out one of the guys fell last night and hurt his ribs and called in so we are extra short handed today. I had to help wait on customers for a while this morning.

    Hope the day calms down for you soon.
