Slowly but surely the vapocalypse approacheth!I

[Papillon61]

I have just now received this email from Green Smokes. Not that i care for Green Smokes anymore (though I must admit they were what got my off cigs in the first place) but this is definitely the shape of things to come.... very shortly.... at least here in Malta. Now perhaps you will better appreciate why I have been what seems to be a fortune on stockpiling stuff. My only hope is that it doesn't rot on me.

Here goes the wonderful email:

Never wanted a mech before but hearing stuff like this is making me think of buying a few. If this eventually happens in the UK it would be a good idea to have a few bomb proof mods stashed away in a cupboard.

juice wont go anywhere if you diy. Nicotine is widely available due to its use as a home garden pesticide, pg/vg are approved food additives and can be bought from a number of sources outside of the vape community, and food flavorings are everywhere.

I do not think pesticide-grade nicotine is vapable.

The make your own is what i ment, can use cigarette butts, liquid nicotine, gum, or snuff. As long as there is that market they won't ban it completely, maybe just limit the vendors. @puffon il try to find some vendors for that use but from person experience usually just make my own with the pg base 100m, water and like dishsoap or barsoap. Works decent just doesnt last aslong as the more toxin stuff


It appears this one is catching the vapetrain and gearing their nicotine towards use for eliquid mostly, they do make plently of diverse chemicals from plants so could probably keep selling it for lab/other uses should the worst happen on nicotine sales online.

Its where ecigexpress gets their nicotine from, runs through a seperate website called 'nicselect'

Very sorry to hear that Papillon.

No, and let's not discuss it on here as we don't want any Darwin award winners among the ECF family

at least you are doing what you can Papillon ... unfortunately, I believe the choke on nicotine base is coming to all smoking nations.

What about Sicily or Italy? If you know someone there, might they be able to send you packages? I know it would delay orders even farther but any way is a good way.

I always wanted to visit Malta. They held the World's Strongest Man contest there a few times. Looked beautiful. Maybe I could smuggle you some things.

I'm afraid I simply can't afford to be complacent. You may be lucky in that you live in a country that is self sufficient and where you can find anything you want. Not so here I'm afraid. No one sells nicotine here. It has always been imported and therefore I can only get nicotine from outside the country. If the sale of nicotine cross-border is banned - as that email seems to imply - then the only way i can have nicotine at any point at a future date is if I purchase it and store it now. Luckily I am almost 62 so probably I will not need a whole store-houseful.

Ah Sicily or Italy (same country) now that is a joke - They've just splashed an exorbitant tax on all things e-cig related there. But that is really very kind of you to offer smuggling things in. It is sad that an adult is forced to break the law because of some misguided policy.
