Huh. I wonder how that affects ship to bill to order placement. I also wonder if a mail service provider might be a way around state flavor and hardware bans. It;s shipped to a legal state and then forwarded on. Have to check into that. Could be quite the loophole.
It would be no different than when I buy something&send it my my grandkids in another state. There is good money doing this as a company..you have to do some paperwork for the postal office so they don't get all weird

Mail forwarding services to any post office as general delivery- you go pick it up.

I want to hike the Appalachian Trail(2200 miles)...shoes last about 30 days of your lucky.. So you have new shoes& supplies sent as needed
My in-laws did it for a 9 month “boat” trip. It worked quite well.

Is there a certain way to tell if stored VG and PG is ok? I've got some of each a few years old that were stored in a lightproof box at room temp. They are still clear and I can't discern any difference in smell from newer batches.
If in doubt you can always replace it. It’s not too expensive.

I'm currently using four year old PG and VG, stored in light proof boxes, air conditioned house, and packed in gallon jugs. All seems fine like the day I got them. They were obtained from Green life, and I have no fear about the quality... I cannot discern any change at all...YMMV

I think hiking that trail would be wonderful. I hope you are able to do that someday.

    You could do a taste test comparing your old to your new batch.
    VG will be sweet, PG will be bitter and slightly sweet.

    @Uncle are you still in NY or did you opt for a snowbird existence?

    Nope to both . . . Actually moved down here for a number of reasons, but mainly to take care of "My" mother (Died 2007) . . . However, I use to travel back an forth every 5 weeks for a week (Philadelphia/New Jersey/New York - Friends/Family/A little work too), but had to stop 3 1/2 years ago just because I had to have a Quintuple Bypass . . AND - Now, although I am still a "New Yorker" at heart & attitude, I am mandated financially to live here instead of up north . . . ANYWAY - Too much snow and too cold for "Me" now anyway . . . May I ask - Why "You" asked? :blink:

    Asked only because I thought you were in NY from your posts. When Rossum generously offered freezer space to you at the FL home by the beach close to you by the beach I was confused. I knew the beach in FL couldn't be close to you if your were still in NY.

    But once a NYer, always a NYer.

    It also means the story of your landlord placing the AC only in the living room with a fan to get it into the bedroom is even more of a nightmare. Florida existence without ready access to AC sounds uninhabitable. I'm upset enough when they just turned the central air over to heat and it's 70 degrees outside. Feels awful until the temps drop more around here. Can't imagine life down there without instant cooling right next to me. Call me a wuss, but I like my creature comforts.

    AH, but if Ya' really knew all the places I've live you might really get confused then . . . :confused: ;)

    WELL - It is so nice to meet you - Mr. Wuss, if you don't mind I would like to introduce myself . . . After living on the streets (homeless) and in a penthouse - and more importantly knowing the difference . . . I am also Mr. Wuss . . .

    Anyone know if Nude Nicotine is shipped in glass or plastic bottles?

    I believe all the rest of their bases are in plastic.

    We just got 2 liters of Nude Nic's regular blend last week. It was shipped in brown plastic bottles.

    I would like to do that for a couple years..see America more thoroughly

    My sister and husband were nomads/road gypsies for 4 years. Although they didn't lack for creature comforts ... they 'camped' in a 50 foot RV with all the ammenities. Yes ... they called it camping! :rolleyes: About the most I've done of the Appalachian trail at one time was a 50 mile trek. Carrying everything on your back to service a weeks sojourn, now that's camping. ;) Also did a number of weekend treks on various sections here in Pennsylvania.

    I used to backpack on the Appalachian trail years ago in PA. What fun and so beautiful :)

    I just got an email form MyVpro saying that the Michigan vape ban has been lifted. Is this new or have I missed something?
    Appeals court judge suspended the ban. From the bit I read this suspension should last a few months. Of course the fda ban could make it a mute issue eventually.

    I think I read post yesterdays injunction ruling that went against the Governor of Michigan she is appealing to the (likely State) Supreme court. She isn't done trying to ram the ban through.

    What I don't understand is why these governors are wasting time and state resources banning anything when they know federal bans and deeming regs are coming soon. All they really need to do is announce the state will support and enforce the fda regulations.

    I guess the question is, who fights the hardest to protect the children. This governor is being proactive, that governor is OK with letting the children go on suffering for another 6 months. The governor who doesn't act now will be attacked by whoever wants to take their job. A two minute talking point for the next election.

    "Never let a crisis go to waste!"

    And they've got themselves one with the hysteria over "vaping related illness" that's allowing them to get a head start on arresting the decline of cig tax and MSA revenue.
