Morning shinies

My vapeciga order (1/4, got on the plane 1/18) has yet to land in the US. It’s just DTs, but I want them, yesterday . What goodies does Cigabuy have? Never ordered from them before.

They mainly have new releases and a few things on cheap clearance. Not a huge selection, but the prices are usually the cheapest of the Chinese stores.

If you want to try flat wire Mel, this German site has a huge selection. This stuff is 0.8mm x 0.2mm 25ga - it will ramp and cool similar to 26ga round wire:
SS Flat Wire V4A 0.8x0.2mm / .032*.008" - AWG 25

They have every sort of wire you could ever want. It's my version of a candy store

Iowa Vapors is just WEIRD. Totally overpriced on some stuff, under on others. Since I was vape broke, I was just LOOKING. Heh. I swear.

Ype, you buy Precios and a bunch of parts including extensions you get a little broke, is what I'm saying.

buy (and beware) this rta. LOL.

Finally broke down and retrieved my flat wire from the PO. Put a ss .8x.2, 2.5mm 8 wrap coil in. Came out to .4 and was pleasantly surprised at how easy the wire was to work with. Still looking for a sweet spot wattage but so far pretty pleased with the build. Liking the firebolt wick, break in is pretty much nil. We'll see how it holds up with the lemon yogurt.

It’s getting to be a Real pita with some vendors not shipping hardware to Massachusetts. I’ve actually emailed them explaining there is a FLAVORED VAPE BAN not a hardware ban.

I’ve received a few lame responses about not being able to separate out inventory which is bull crap because there are several vendors doing EXACTLY that. It just takes an IT tech to Mark flavored juice the all hardware should be available.

With the number of states going with non flavored juice they re responsible for their own short sightedness and with the decrease in juice and hardware sales they will put themselves out of business. And it’s their own fault for not staying ahead on the IT front

And to make matters worse for me & others, New Jersey is implementing a flavored ban in 3 months supposedly. My sister and a friend in that state have been my go to for shipping. So now what. I have a friend in North Carolina but he’s got liver cancer and I’m certainly not bothering him although he’d gladly accept the shipments and resend to me.

oh and I figured out how to start a new USPS CLICK N SHIP account for my NJ friend so all I do is email or message her the paid shipping label. She only needs to tape it over the existing label and leave for the mail carrier. Easy peasy.

I hope this help some others. I may go on an email spree to vendors who don’t ship hardware to flavored ban states.

IT services are expensive; with the current environment over here in the states and deeming around the corner I doubt most are willing to invest any money into something that would not be useful in the near future.

The brass unicorn Vert on sale looks like something I’d like Tempting. 49 American is a good price I think?

It’s gonna be worse here in BC Canada. No tanks bigger than 2ml.

Talks of Taxes on hardware and juice to go up to 70 percent.

That’s why I’m stocking up.
I wonder if I’ll have trouble buying ingredients to make juice from sites such as the broke vaper. We’re banning 0mg juice as well so I wonder if those 1 shots and whatnot fall into that category.

I’m going to see if I can find it in the US. But, I def gotta get some. Sounds great!

Ricky Vapes I think you're on Vancouver Island? If so you do have a couple options. IIRC there's a VIDIY vendor I've used, they were fine (notice the VI) or there's a DIYEJUICE in Vancouver who's the largest in Canada. TBV was the only one I've bought nic or salts from in 4 years.

Kelly is a great guy, bought from DIY EJuice a few times, top shelf retailer.

Have not heard that but wouldn’t surprise me.

To my knowledge, PST tax on vape products have been increased to 20%. And nicotine will be restricted to 20mg/ml. Do not know how that plays into DIY, Dashvapes is another that sells DIY with a Burnaby warehouse for BC purchases.

Purchasing vape products elsewhere in Canada, regardless of hardware or consumables will result in that 20% PST. And I would be very cautious about buying juice outside Canada. Canadian law already restricts the amount of juice that can be purchased abroad – with a couple of Canadian members here on ECF experiencing customs confiscating their orders. Imagine BC will restrict that even further.

 

[HBcorpse]

No, the price is correct and it vaped the same. It's the construction which makes it cheaper. Instead off billet aluminium it's zinc alloy etc etc.

You won't notice any difference in the vape

Ahhh.

See I thought (didn’t read) that the SE had a stainless body, and that’s why it was special.

Oh well. Since I got the Atmizoo DotShell, I’ve finally been able to use my existing DotAIO...so I “needed” a backup!

Yes indeed CBSA (Health Canada's Lap Dog) seized a $100 dollar order of mine from Yaeliq in Israel...

But Yaeliq had reshipped the order at NC, it slipped right on through and I was enjoying some very nice Israel Captain & Turkish tobacco before the official notice of first order's confiscation arrived in the mail.

They can't check every box but it's a dice roll bringing juice in from abroad.

Seem to recall you mentioning that in the past. But there was another member who order e-juice from the US. Customs confiscated it and he was out of $$$

 

[Eskie]

An FYI 18650batteries is having a one day sale in Moli P26A for $3.99 and I believe a Moli 21700 for the same. They’re a very responsible vendor for those who never ordered from them.

Get your nic now, that they can do something about. Flavor concentrates are going to be available, you just might have to order them from non related vape sites.

 

[Letitia]

Well I ordered the clutch, green; also ordered a button for it, green camo. Already have a couple 30T so I'm guessing those will be fine. I'll decide what to top it with when it gets here.

 

[NolaMel]

Vinci x and tripod are both finally out for delivery.
Must be my mail lady’s day off, usually have my mail by 11. Neither hide nor hair spotted yet. This checking out the window is cutting into getting anything done lol

Agree with @Letitia

And to add - Although any future regulations could change with the wind, to my knowledge flavoured e-juice is not being looked at. Although individual provinces could set their own regulations as BC has. They are looking at flavoured pre-filled pods like Juul and Blu.

Nicotine within Canada has been restricted to 65mg/ml – again, do not know how that plays into BC’s new regulations. Dash does sell nic at 65mg/ml, but limits to 120ml. The Broke Vaper, Fusion Flavours sells up to 1L of nic in your preferred base but at a 60mg/ml level. Never bought nic from DIY-EJuice, they do not even list it on their site so not sure if they sell nicotine. Use coupon “ELRECIPES” for 10% off Broke Vaper

Happy Hump Day, shinies!

This stuff is great for right after you brush your teeth

not often envious. am. green is my choice too, or rather it will be.
30Ts all the way with the occasional molicel thrown in
