    Holy moly I'm getting way too chatty in my old age :blink:

    But I do have a Pet Lamb - Meet Spike ;)

    He was a triplet, his mum couldn't feed all 3 well enough, so we fed him. Then another ewe had triplets who all died. So she is now looking after and feeding Spike - we still give him the odd feed, but his new mum does most of the work :thumb:

    Nope. I have that stunning _______ & _______ you pointed me towards on the the way. :lol:


    Me too w/asMODus mods.
    Does NZ customs screen, or open, everything coming in? Does nic have to be labeled as such coming into NZ? I wonder if shipped from here as "gift" if would get through. We could always try that, if you want. I've received things from the UK labeled as gift and that worked fine.

    I'm not really sure. But nicotine is legal to import for personal use (I think) @Fredman1 will know more about this.

    I'm happy at this stage to just buy as much as I can here in NZ - while I can. But if the price goes up, you will be getting a very grateful PM ;)

    You've done more than just 'OK' ;) When I first got on the shiny thread (15 months ago), you were never gonna get into rbas, nor mechs, nor ever ever ever! squonk :lol:

    Instead, you have blazed those trails for the rest of us :wub:
    No trailblazer here... I got drug into it kicking and screaming :lol:! My first mech is probably 6-7 years old, one of my earliest serious purchases. I didn’t use it because I was afraid of putting a carto or dropin tank on it (don’t panic, it’s NOT a hybrid). A couple of years ago if you told me I’d have several dozen rtas and rdas, I would have LAUGHED until I wet my pants. And forget diy... @Letitia isn ever going to let me forget I said I was done buying flavors when got my first SIX :lol:. Amazing what you can learn to do on ECF. Or what y’all can talk me into!!! Either way, feeling blessed by all the support over the years :wub:

    They generally open only the liquids. I've often wondered if they analize or just sniff it :w00t:
    There's nothing I can find that says nicotine has to be labeled. As @AngeNZ said nicotine can't be sold here. It can be imported, but only for personal use (whatever that means...how much and how often...?). I don't think they'll bother with a system to check and/or control that at this stage.
    As with the rest of the world NZ is plagued by sinthetic drugs and the like. Its only a matter of time I fear that something similar will happen here as in the US, with those people falling ill after vaping hazardous stuff. School kids here taking to vaping in droves...similar to the US. We all know what kids are like when it comes to a new fad...!
    Problem is vaping and us that do it sensibly, will be the ones that'll be worse off in the end.

    A bit of Feedback on my new little Chillax Pod for you @charlie1465 and All curious Shinys:D

    Now firstly I am full of a bloody cold at the moment so my feedback on the flavour won't happen, sorry:(
    The unit it's self is small and a nice feeling to hold while vaping.
    You can change from 3.2v, 3.5v and 3.8v and the coil that's in the pod is a 1.5 ohms ceramic coil.
    So your running pretty low watts with all settings.
    The mouthpiece holds 1ml of juice and holds on by a magnetic contact.
    Push button 5 times to turn on/off and is draw activated. 450mAh battery.

    Final Verdicto_O
    Apart from not being able to taste too much flavour, but I can't really even taste my Galaxies right now!!
    It vapes up pretty nice But in saying that and a Big But is that the mouthpiece actually loses magnetic contact while vaping and no magnetic contact, vaping Stops. And it's a Very loose mouthpiece.
    This happened for at least half of the time I was using it.

    Would I recommend??
    Sorry Famovape but it's a NO NO.

    This has been Dan's Review on the Chillax;)
    It's Definitely no Charlie's Review(it's only my first) so I hope i gave everyone a good enough rundown:p
    Great review... So it's a no then :p

    So often these days things look promising and fail miserably at the final hurdle.

    We are luckier than most here as we almost never buy kit that hasn't been tested by another forum member so when we buy we know already....

    Onwards and upwards :D

    Me too - main reason I'm stocking up on Asmodus mods while I can. I love using them way too much to NOT get them while I can :thumb:

    My next concern is decent quality 100mg nic base - since most of what we can buy here in NZ is from USA, I can see the price of it sky rocketing
    My most recent purchase came from China and apart from being a tiny bit tinged yellow it's a good nic supplier. I got 2 200mg bottles from them for around 100 euros.....came through customs no prob as PG but I did get a import duty of 15 euro plus admin charge of 20.....outrageous.

    It's worth it to know that there is a good source which isn't going anywhere though :)

    Women in my circle call it ‘Hive Mind’.

    My hobbies included collecting hobbies, and I join a lot of groups to learn stuff. In predominantly female groups, it works much like this forum, everyone asks, everyone answers, everyone evolves quickly, and anyone with a bit of aptitude can become close to an expert in very little time.

    That’s not my experience in predominantly male groups, except this one. And yes, although we ladies are pretty outspoken here I think guys still outnumber us by a fair stretch.

    Good morning shiners! Have to take my daughter in for an endoscopy today so I'll pop in and out while sitting around waiting for her.

    Hope all goes well for your daughter.

    I thought it was just me or my screen showing Spike as blue... he’s a cutie for sure!

    My goodies from AR eliquid are at the PO! I usually don’t go until after lunch, but today I’ll go when they open. I’m going up to see Mom and I won’t have to hurry home before the mail closes. I have some goodies for her, too, some cookies and her favorite flavor of Ensure, butter pecan ( I got her sweet tooth lol) and a travel mug so I can bring her a nice hot cup of coffee w/creamer. They have coffee but it’s awful, like the stuff nurses at hospitals drink.
