It's a$s backwards thinking..

1. No more sampling juice = People will buy juice they don't like and either toss it in the trash or pour it down a sink. Both are bad ideas for several obvious reasons.

2. Vape shops can't help new vape peeps set up and learn how to use a new device = Dangerous if people do not know how it works and are not given an explanation of safety features.

3. No more vape shop coil builds = New vape peeps will try and do it themselves and that could be dangerous as well.

I can go on but I think we all get the point. The rulez that recently went into effect were thought up by moronic idiots...

For all the reasons you listed, the rules and regulations that were put in place are actually GENIUS, from THEIR perspective.

If shops can't help, newbies will finally become the "dangerous vapers" THEY have been saying exist. Think about it.

They've done a mafia job on us, and shot out our knee caps. Now they've mixing the materials, to make our cement boots.
Then they will just toss us into the river of taxes and revenues they live so richly on.

The main factor at play is money. To the governments around the world Money comes before God. The only reason they don't take "In God We Trust" off of our money is it costs too much money to do so. Money comes before citizens and for sure before their health. Yup when vaping came out they just lost too much money.

Almost.
1. No more FREE sampling. Shops can still charge 1.00 or something for all day or so many samples of juice.

2. Shops can demonstrate on a shop sample, how to do things, they can teach and explain etc. They just can't do it for them. Some folks have talked about checking with their shops and just volunteering to hang around and do stuff for folks that can't do it.

3. Jup, spot on with this one.

It all stinks big time!!!

The best solution to the "No free sampling" rule popped up today at a local shop. They charge a dollar for sampling, but donate that dollar to advocacy campaigns.

Many local folks have offered to be the "knowledgeable customer" who will help a newbie. I will always do the same if I am present. I have discussed this with my local store and they are happy with my offer.

Several of my local stores have reported already being scoped out by "undercover" FDA shoppers... being asked leading questions, pretending they don't have ID etc.

The sad thing is that this deliberate behavior leads to skepticism about every customer that comes in with little knowledge.

Sca'ruuu U, FDA.

I must admit to having wondered that myself.

I have only ordered once from fasttech, and it was for a product called ceramic cotton. The stuff was a bit too thick, and did not work for what I wanted it for. Anyway for some reason I decided to look at their Aspire BVC coils, I have a vague memory of someone talking about them being a good buy, and at this price it is very tempting, even if it takes a month to get here. So has anyone here bought these, and if so were they any good?

I've bought MANY times, KAS. Zero problema, other than the gift cert business. You have to pay with either a gift cert, or bitcoin, but once you go thru the process, it's really quite easy.

Me too, KAS. ALL the time. And if you select "E-packet" shipping, less than two weeks (sometimes within a week!).

They've upped their game considerably.

Same here. Always bought them before they went to the large holed ones.

I think you need patience and a bit of an understanding about how they work. If anything goes wrong they will fix it but it will take a while. In some cases a long while. And just pester patiently until you get a result.

And I love the large holed ones.

So is that something new than? Because if I remember correctly, I just used Paypal's credit card pay now thing, I had no issues with the transaction at all, it was only about 2 months ago. I have no clue what bitcoin even is.
