View attachment 617597

called and told them to cancel, no way I'm sending a copy of my driver license... :facepalm:

that was over >$200 worth of ejuice, which most I was gonna give for gifts - it's nothing against Heartland Vapes

That sucks! :sneaky::grr:
I wonder why they are not using what other sites have been. I have not been asked yet for my I.D. I think they can check with your credit card company.

That not only sucks, but it blows!!!
I have only had 1 vendor want that and a selfie with my ID. I contacted them and said I was NOT going to do that and they said okay and removed me from their subscription list.
I know it's not their fault (thanks fda)
It saddens me to see the industry treated this way
BTW to me a selfie is something a teenage boy does in the bathroom. EWWWH

So, nothing new is really interesting me these days, can we talk about the DNA 40 BB for a minute?? Good? Great? Worth it? Thoughts?
I want one! The BB is a fabulous little mod. Works best in a MTL situation I think at least the parts that I have. Just know that when you purchase it you must buy a kit to handle whatever types of heads you want to use. And you cant beat a Dna40 IMO unless you can get your hands on a Dna60.

yepper, I sure don't know ?


seems they 'tried' and it failed - so whats that tell ya, they couldn't find me with arrest records, or a facebook page, or what ?

but I guess it is because I was attempting to purchase that wicked drug 'nicotine' :danger:


if anything, a Signature upon delivery by a leagal ADULT should suffice beyond any rules or law :facepalm:

wonder if the 'new' administration will have any effect upon the deeming fools... :yawn:

Have any of you tried a pod mod yet, a Juul, Cync, Myjet, Von Erl? So far I've only tried the Cync, 45 mg 1.35 ml Njoy Menthol pods, some pods have worked great (like an Njoy daily) perfect for a high hit MTL, other pods have required a double puff, or a direct to lung start and finish MTL, its been hit or miss. Even so, I'm convinced that pods are great for low vapor high nic stealth and quick hit (when you dont have time to vape a lot) tootle puffing. The future is upon us (ducks haha). It's the MTL version of subohm high performance vaping, going the OTHER way, less juice, higher nic. I have a Myjet on order, along with some Mr. Salt E nic salts Mint juice (for pod refills) and some nic salts base (I chose "smooth", but also have a sample of "signature" coming) from Nude Nicotine for DIY in my pods.
It's not a replacement for my 18 mg to 24 mg tootle puff tanks (triton mini, nauty mini, kabuki clone, kfV5 mini SXK clone, etc) at 8W, it serves a different purpose - stealth, quick, easy to pocket, easy to vape, anywhere. I said, anywhere. lol. Three or four hits at 45 mg nic salt based juice in a pod, good to go! :D
Yes its pricey with prefilled pods, but as I said, its not my full time vape, and I'm going to try my own mixes and pod refills to make it cheaper. At this point, I'm not recommending any particular pod mod, still trying them out, but you can read a lot more opinions on the Vap Pod Systems section of the forum:

Sigh.......

These are still the golden years of vape, even with ALL that we and the vendors have to suffer, I'm afraid.

Prep and ready, kiddies. Hope for the best and prep for.......
Yah I am worried about all my favorite vendors I frequent. It is a great time for us with great gear and low prices, but what about all those peeps who support their family's by our purchases.

Its terrible :(

I made it!!!:rickroll:
I didn't buy anything vape related during the seasonal sales!
Now I'm gonna celebrate by ordering some coils from one of my Favorite vendors.
Not because I need them, because they started stocking them again I feel the need to support someone.:headbang:

Hadn't seen that, thanks for the link!

If this clip from the article does hold true,

"Some vapers may be quick to judge VaporBeast for “selling out” to a tobacco company, but those people should consider the good that could come of this move. First, a well-respected online vaping seller will stay in business. And combining Turning Point’s strength in convenience stores with VaporBeast’s vapor products distribution ability will get quality independent vape gear and e-liquids into the hands of more smokers."

then having at least some "big money" behind us may help.

Not sure how I feel about this. Since Vaporbeast was bought by a company that seems to specialize in papers used to "roll cigarrettes" the focus of the company's stock may be the "other" vaping community.
I think they are primarily focused on tobacco and nicotine. Although ZigZag is very popular for other recreational behaviors.

Yes that could be true and it could help us. They manufacture vaping devices it looks like too.

Yes, the article mentioned it, sort of. Referred to V2cig, iirc, which isn't quite true, should have referred to V2Ecig...

That, and that the company does NOT market actual cigarettes, suggests to me that they see some sort of writing on the wall, and want to position themselves to survive the changing market.

So... may be a good thing. Small fry, like most of the vape shops both on and off line, are too small to be heard.
