I’ve always wondered way tobacco companies didn’t jump at the chance to invest in the e-cigarettes sector especially as tobacco smoking is constantly decreasing in popularity. Well it seems, although slow to enter the e-cigarette market they have been looking in to it for a while. British American tobacco = Vype e-cigarettes, Lorillard = BluCigs, Japan Tobacco International = E-lites, Imperial = Fontem Ventures, Philip Morris International = Altria e-cigarettes, RJ Reynolds American = Vuse.

I noticed the increase of vaping products in all those stores and gas stations, it never occurred to me that it was connected to the tobacco companies till I read an article a few days ago. Apparently they’ve been investing in the vaping market since 2012.
if you look at most of the state and federal regulations, you'll notice that "closed systems" are normally not included and quite often specifically excluded....
that's BT trying to force everyone to use their crappy cigalikes.

Who wants to Compete in a Free Market when you can have State Legislators Uneven the Playing Field for You?
Big Tobacco is on the verge of having the Vape market handed to them on a silver platter by BG 
They simply will not tolerate smokers quitting cigarettes

Too bad for BT that most forum members aren't part of their market anymore
(Based on the number of posts in the threads about stocking up..)
I don't know if this is connected with tobacco companies but I actually see many "smoke shops" that actually carry devices and accessories that many vape shops carry. I was shocked the other day when u saw a bodaiga (corner store) selling the ego aio, but they were charging $38.99, almost half the price of the popular cost.
A month back I noticed bottles of juice behind the counter at rite aid. Not sure of the manufacturer but even ratio of pg to vg isn't listed. I always get coupons for free mark tens too but after trying one I'm confused that they sell, it tasted like I was eating an ashtray.

BT already knows ex-smokers like myself have moved on and will not be back ... it's the smokers who have not quit they are hoping to hijack.
Why do you think there was the predicate date created for no new products to hit the market??? It gives Big Tobacco time to catch up on there tech and marketing strategies... just something to think about.
