nifty pod,what does blue taste like?;)
Blue Raspberry snow cone. Tastes are subjective, that said this is an amazing flavourful blue raz juice from Vape Republic(south African juice makers). It tastes authentic with a ice cold mouth feel that can sometimes give you a brain freeze. It's been my treat during lockdown.

so you can get nic with a prescription.:blink:
In theory yes but what will it mean in practice? First a dr has to agree to prescribe then a Pharmacy has to agree to stock it. If they do I'm guessing massive mark ups and only small amounts allowed. So probably frequent visits to the GP at $75/visit then god knows how much for a 60ml container of probably 48mg/ml (max) nic. All monitored by Dept of Health. There might even be a mandatory dropping down of nic levels over time to "ween you off" your addiction

And best of all is the nicotine isn't even the problem. BT has been adding poisons legally for years with the consent of ALL governments.
All that was/is really needed is for BT to be restricted by law to ONLY use tobacco in a cigarette...NOTHING else.
It used to be that way when I started smoking....only tobacco was used. Was much easier to stop back then to. The tobacco plant and nicotine has/is being very unjustly...and uninformedly ridiculed.

I'm a realist not a defeatist. I've checked and yes there really is a proposed $220,000 fine for customers importing nicotine into Aus after 1 July. So if a nice guy like you tries to help a nice guy like me, the first nice guy wastes his nic and the second nice guy gets in serious trouble. It stinks Charlie.
Nasty short sighted tax grabbing bast ard politicians are going to cause a lot of pain for a lot of innocent people.
Woah.

I'm curious, was that just normal E-packet shipping for the Precisios? I have been interested in them but I have never purchased from places like 3F or Fasttech due to the shipping problems I have heard about.
Sorry to be answering so late. I have been sleepy and distracted.

Anyway, per my order history, the shipping was via US Express-Line1. Is that E-packet?

I am not sure. Never ordered from them before. The only option it gives me for shipping is "ePacket by China Post".

China Post is the slowest type of shipping you can get. I ordered an rba for my Mulus from Aspire on April 30 and still have not gotten it yet. It sat in the Shanghai airport for over 5 weeks, and has just now gotten through the usps distribution center in NYC. I will never use e-packet China Post again, even if it means more $$ for shipping. DHL is what I would suggest if available. All this is assuming you want your product in a reasonable amount of time. If you can wait for your stuff, then it makes no difference. You WILL wait using China Post.

Forgot to mention that a friend of mine here has been waiting the same amount of time for his rba for his Mulus also.

Maybe it will come in an official government cartridge, with a chip that shuts it down when you've consumed your daily allowance. Or nicotine clinics where you can consume your nic in a safe environment, so you guys won't be hanging out on vacant lots sharing drip tips.

yeah and you have to do a pee test to make sure you only have your allowed amount in your system before you can get more. OMG.

Actually, I realized that for some reason my address was entered as being in American Samoa. Once I changed it to Missouri, it allowed for the US Express option.
