Have you ever used that site? It pops up "expired card" when I order and it certainly is not.

EDIT - I just used a VISA Christmas gift card and it worked. WTBH? Calling bank in AM

I should try my card at a site that I know it works at.
Like vape Royalty or VapeNW or Origin vape or Eciggity or Code-3 or Vaper Range or vapordna or...

There will be a black market but what you will be able to obtain, and the quality of the goods is anyone's guess at this time. I just landed a new job and each month will be buying supplies just in case I cannot get any in the future. I do not plan on buying from a black market and will not be selling anything that I buy to anyone else.

Some of the goods change rapidly (tanks, rdas, rtas, rbas, mech and box mods) so I would not rush to buy tons of them all at once in the first half of 2016 b/c new models are sure to arrive. Other needs will be available for quite a while after any crackdowns (wire, batteries, pg, vg, wiring devices, cotton, standalone freezer for nicotine which can hit -15F - which is not needed until your refrigerator freezer becomes too full) so you need to think about a logical order to what make the most sense to order first (5 gallons of nicotine with good seals and argon treatment from a reliable vendor that you know will last 10yrs, and flavors for recipes you've already tried and want, and maybe some prepared e-liquids b/c once the FDA rules come in to effect that could be the death knell for 75% of the e-liquids out there).

Be wise. Don't buy 10 "tanks" from 10 different vendors that you expect to last 10yrs. Buy 10 "tanks" all of the same model from one vendor, which you already like, and buy spare parts kits along with them so that you have parts in case the supplies get cut off or they b/c difficult/expensive to obtain.

Spend what you logically can, if you have the means to do so. I'm expecting the crackdown if any, to occur after the middle of the year in the USA. I know litigation will follow, but I do not know what orders from the executive branch will come down to speed the enforcement of FDA regulations before appeals are heard...or if vendors even will have the means to organize and put forth an appeal.

Buy what you can use NOW. If no crackdown happens, you can use whatever you've purchased.
 
What I'm buying in 2016. If the product is not available, I'll buy whatever is available.

- Frigidaire Commercial 7.4 Cu. Ft., locking, chest freezer: FCCS071QW. I know I'll be storing more than the nic...so the extra capacity is no bother.

I use to DIY - got 4 un-open bags of tobacco, tubes and the machine under my sink - can't bring myself to throw them away - this week there going in the garbage for sure.

You could always check the NET section and see how they extract the flavors and vape it.
 
It would be nice to hear some followup from Chicago. Have any vape shops closed? Has the tax actually been implimented yet? Has any business as yet mailed in a check to pay the tax?

I think the purpose of the tax in Chicago is to discourage smokers from switching to protect their extravagently high city tobacco tax. Current vapers will drive to the suburbs or go mail order or DIY. If Chicago lost it's toacco tax suddenly may be that would force them into bankruptcy protection. May be that would happen to some states too.


If you can believe it Chicago just increased it's tobacco taxes, and then this week proposed additional tobacco taxes...AGAIN.

I've not been to a store in Chicago for a month, and I do not think I'll go back. If I walk in there and they ask me for $50 for 30ml bottle, I'd just walk out, so no need to go in there and see what they are going to do to try and survive. I'm out!
 
Anyone willing to share how many liters of 100 mg they have stored up? How long you are expecting it to last, and what mg you currently use? I'm 33, have 6 liters, expect it to last at 22 years at current rate at 12 mg regular and 3 mg sub ohming. I'm debating on whether to buy more or not. Do not want to run out but want to reduce my consumption of nic even more.


I have 10 - 250ml 100mg Nude Nicotine Armor v2, and from this month fwd will be buying 6 - 500ml 100mg Nude Nicotine Armor v2 until I have at least a few gallons.
 
I bought two RX200 for $50 each.
Bought two more when VapeNW dropped them to $40 each.
3 (married) 18650s and more wattage than most sensible people could want.
I have 3 in the vapeocalypse box (after testing them).
I use the other daily and love it.
Reuleaux RX200 by Wismec 200W $39.95

Way to go! Buying duplicates. Very smart.
 
No problemo! ;)
My mil uses nautilus too. I told her to keep all her old coils because I heard you can rebuild them, and I could do that for her if I could learn how. Then I saw this.


Here are videos on rebuilding Aspire coils: #1, #2

That's a pretty decent deal @ Fluid Vapes. Are they here in the USA, or China?

Well their site says USA # 1 Online Vapor Store and their phone # looks local. I'm guessing USA based.

I'm thinking of picking up a few. Too good to miss at that price. Hate to change the subject but I'm going to anyway. I've never had an all metal tank. How do you figure out when you need more juice? Wait until it starts to taste burnt? Hold it by your ear and shake it?

I think I figured it out. You take the drip tip off and look down the hole, right?

    Addipak - unit dose vials
    5ml sterile .9% solution for inhalation USP

    There was an Epay sale of 5 (100pc) boxes @ about $15/ea IIRC
    I only bought 1 box to try but haven't replenished yet.
    I'm going to look in my saved vape-e-mail and try to get another box now.
    Race you :)

    Nope, all gone. Here's the selection now - addipak saline | eBay

    I found some at the local pharmacy. I mixed it, replacing water, at 5%. I agree, it is a smoother vape. I am going to order some on the net - be much cheaper. The 5 ml will work great for me, I mix 200 ml at a time, so two vials per batch is perfect.

    Thank you.

    Makes perfect sense, add $52.80 TAX on a typical 8oz bag or Tobacco for RYO which is usually the Choice of Low/lower middle income buyers.:facepalm:

    Never mind the fact the Very Minority he wants to make amendments with are the ones that will bear the brunt of those tax increases:sneaky:
    Sheeple :nah:
