Settling in

[ineedtothinkofaname]

Hi there. I've tried adding to a thread and its not really got my anywhere, and I can't post in the SG vapors group, so I'm hoping someone might throw me a lifeline. Basically I've come from the UK, been vaping for about 2 years. I'm here with work and I heard you can't order in ecigs, so I brought a bunch of juice with me. Now my ecig is dying and as I didn't know better (used to be on the disposable stuff) I didn't bring a replacement. So, I'm basically looking for a replacement device that takes juice. I don't really care what it is as long as it works. My question is how or where do I do this? I've got the juice which is the bit you can't import right? So can I just order a new device in? Cheers

Yep....just order a new one...good luck!

I've no idea where you could get that in the UK... but I'll give your thread a bump so it doesn't get lost in the sea of the new members forum. Hopefully someone else will chime in. Good luck.

So...

Hello.. ...welcome... I take it that you are in Singapore for work (from the UK) and you need a new/replacement vaporizer... something that you can get in Singapore... is this correct?

Cheers, ~M

Hey everyone thanks for the replies. M - yes that would be the golden ticket, but I'm not sure where in Singapore they may be sold? But the short answer is yes that's correct. Thanks Becca for clarifying - I basically ordered before and it got turned away at customs, but I wasn't sure if that's because they threw in some free e juice or if its because the device itself is a problem. If I can't find anything local, at least I can try ordering in again. Anyone know of a seller in SG for just the device?

Thanks everyone

Ok, Need...

It looks like they are completely banned there.. I ran a search and came across a couple things:

hi fellow singaporean.

E-cig is banned in singapore. So far you are not able to get e-cig in singapore as the laws and fine, you know, are so strict and high that no vendors dare to sell them openly.

2 options for you.
(a) You can hop over to the malaysia sub forum and get the contacts of those dealers there and buy from them, through delivery or you go over to buy and bring them back.
(b) you can look for ECF suppliers here, you do have some risk of our custom/HSA confiscating your items before it reach you. But it's worth the risk.

You can try some of the Cn-based suppliers like GreenHouse One, Heath cabin, Eastmall...

good luck

and....

there is no legal supplier selling e-cig IN Singapore.

For Singaporean who wish to know more please visit our forum >>> SG Vapers

or u can send a request to join our private group >>> http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/groups/sg-vaper.html

pls dont go ard asking n buying from unreliable source, u might end up buying pricey and lousy quality stuff.

...so..

I think jumping over to Malaysia and shopping there would be the easiest... but there are some good contacts here who would likely be able to help, and will certainly know alot more about it than I do...

I hope this helps. All the best, & Cheers, ~M

EDIT: Here is the link to the whole thread where I pulled these notes. There is alot of detail on there, I thought it worth linking the whole thread....

Learning how to make one from flashlights or something would be even better.

 

[ineedtothinkofaname]

That would be a brilliant McGivour moment if I could manage that! Thanks for the links M, I tried going to the SG group but its private and there is no way to ask to join - a bit of a catch 22. You have to know someone to join, but you don't get to know them unless your part of the group.

Yeah I knew they were banned but I wasn't sure what the deal was with just the device as it has no nicotine in it. Sounds like ill have to order it to HK or something and go pick it up next time I'm there. A bit of a ball ache, but no options I think! Unless you know anyone in the SG group who can show me the secret handshake or whatever I need

Thanks for the helps guys. I'll let you know how the flashlight idea works out...
