No, he is definitely not "a bottle supplier for most of the major players in the juice market". It looks like I would not believe him at all.

And you know this because you're psychotic? No wait I meant Psychic! I'm always screwing those two up! LOL!

I am sorry for your problem (I mean about screwing)...
If you kindly allow me to lead you trough a little bit of thinking, I would ask you a question: do you really believe "the major players in the juice market" would buy bottles from some vaping shop owner (and pay to unneeded middle man) or on well-developed bottle (and other similar things) market? And so on...
Now, boys!!! Play nice! We don't have full context: he may well be a supplier of bottles for the major players in their LOCAL juice market. ??

They're a sourcing company for bottles. He works with them and owns the shops I manage.

Someone from Canada said all their packages were inspected now. Once they get you on the list it's all over.

This one could have been a broken bottle or a package that was torn open in the machinery or something.
AH THAT WOULD BE ME.I had two liters of VT nic taken when my package went through customs. Then I had ordered some eliquid that I liked and they took that too. So now I am on a list and everything is opened. Vape gear goes through it's just anything with nicotine was taken.

Yes. I can't quote chapter & verse, but there is something in the patriot act that allows this law to be circumvented. It's worded loosely enough to apply in this situation. The statute of limitations and forum rules prevent me from saying how I found this out, but trust me. It's in there. All they need is a "reasonable suspicion" that there is something in the package that violates even the most obscure or irrelevant law. Big brother is more powerful than he has ever been.
Big Brother and nosy-busybody postmasters. Give some of them a tiny bit of power and some of them think they are God. Thank goodness I don't have one like that.

yet....

I find even the most genial person gets a bit power mad when given the chance to weld that hammer. (excluding myself of course :lol: Bwahahahahaha!)

Just kidding. :)

Seriously though, I do believe we get 'marked' when something flags us.

I do like the nic from the Canadian supplier you turned me onto. I ordered a 500ml and will be ordering another 1-2l this/next week. It is expensive relative to the US, but not insanely so. It seems to be great quality too.

In any case, 2.5l of nic will last me a very long time and save me a ton of $$$, so I am just going to shop in Canada for nic. I go to the US a lot and it isn't worth the hassle of getting flagged or have every package sent thru the mail inspected.

I'd pay extra if the vender would put a scorpion in my next order..

Come spring/summer I can send you all you'd ever want, just pay actual shipping costs.
They're good fried or roasted over an open fire, dipped in white chocolate they make a tasty dessert.

Hmm, scorpion flavor e liquid,,,

I was going to offer getting a supply for you and meeting you in Vancouver, then I looked at where Ft. Nelson is.. yeah, no. :lol:
Are they inspecting EVERYTHING, as in like personal shipments? ;) ;) ;)
