After shipping it's only $40 which is cheaper than Heartland. If they have it again, I'll buy a liter and it will be my last one...honest.

Last weekend it was 3mg, 6mg and 100mg. I got a 2 500ml bottles of Pharma for $30 shipped. Shipping is high but the packaging is excellent. Still way way cheaper than the $25/120ml i would have to pay locally and it taste just fine to me.

Shipping is free with a total order of $100 or more, handy for the hoarders among us. :D

I believe these are the dates that shipping to US consumers ends:

Fedex - March 1, 2021
UPS - April 5, 2021
USPS - April 26, 2021

It looks like vape shops will be the only way for most US consumers to get devices, coils, nicotine base and premixed liquids going forward.

Time is near to get creative or be fully stocked up!

Oh dear.... Who needs FDA and their deeming regulations. :facepalm:

Thanks for the thread, @440BB .

Never tried their Pharma. How is it?

I usually buy 100 mg Armor in small bottles. Great nic, packaging, shipping.

There was some speculation that CBD vaporisers would be a workaround for us after deeming. The hardware vendors would just rename themselves and start selling their products as CBD gear. Last year there was a tongue in cheek disclaimer on the Fat Daddy site saying they no longer sold stuff for vaping, just parts for CBD vaporisers. Anyone know whether CBD hardware can still be shipped?

Doesn't seem likely it would be that simple.

The next blow is when Big Tech bans vaping from the internet. No websites, no YouTube reviews, no forums, no online sales. Don't think it can't happen.

Really? The chances of that happening are on par of gas being 30 cents a gallon again.

Sounds to me like they have any vape gear that is designed for the user to inhale anything vaporized liquid.

Guess they haven't left a lot of loopholes there.

There was a time in the US where even possession of any amount of marijuana in some states was a felony that could get you a 20 year jail sentence - Apparently the same type of insane frenzy against vaping is happening here.
The 'Witch Hunt' is on - Since they will not pay any attention to science and truth and make up any lie about vaping that fits the agenda - there is no way of knowing where it will end. Like in the nation of India where possession of any e liquid or device is now a jailable crime - And India has a very high death rate from traditional cigarette smoking.
I no longer believe in Evolution - as the case could be now made for monkeys being a higher life form !!!

Parler brought that on themselves for failing to properly moderate its content.
Parler brought that on themselves by threatening to compete against the more established, larger social platforms.

There.
I Fixed that for you.

Everyone knows why Parler got vanquished. To be made to argue otherwise is an insult to my intelligence.

Apparently some online sellers will not give up.

Just received this from an online vape shop:

"Don't worry, we aren't going anywhere.

Orders are still shipping normally for at least the next 2 months.

We have 120 days after the President signs the bill into law to setup delivery contracts with private couriers. We are committed to keeping your delivery costs down, and we will subsidize shipping to make sure that ordering from us remains affordable."

Eightvape just sent the following email blast...

96879aa6-8af3-44b8-ad8c-649fc7309995.png


Recent congressional amendments to the PACT Act, signed into law as part of an omnibus spending bill, have broadened the definition of tobacco products to include vapes and vaping supplies. E-liquids, mods, kits, disposables, pod systems, and all other vaping items are now defined as tobacco products, and as such, they will be regulated more harshly.

In fact, Congress has prohibited USPS from shipping vape products, and FedEx and UPS intend to stop shipping vape products as well. We work with these carriers exclusively to fulfill orders, so we’re forced to adapt swiftly and change service handlers.

For your information, the carriers will stop shipping vape products on these dates:

  • FedEx, March 1
  • UPS, April 5
  • United States Postal Service (USPS), April 26

We’re working to engage a network of alternative carriers to fulfill our orders (and we’re optimistic about our success), but as a precaution we’re advising customers to stock up on vape supplies before the dates above, just to ensure you have what you need.

Our goal is to continue providing fast, affordable delivery, but we know that customers in remote areas may have greater difficulty receiving vape mail in the future.

We’ll keep you updated by making new information visible once we have it. Thanks to all our loyal customers during this time!



Sincerely,

Your Eightvape Fam

So I got that delivery today. Like I said, shipped USPS instead of the usual UPS. Also unlike all the other years I've been buying from them, they shipped with a half-discreet return address. Same address but instead of business name it was just "Shipper". No signature service.

My memory sucks nowadays but a long time ago before there was any brick and mortar stores didn't we just order straight from China? I remember waiting to see if my order cleared customs. Which it usually did. I was ordering 60mg e liquid and cutting it down with 0mg. We also ordered our dse-901s from China. Then people started making "mods". Long story short just order straight from China. It's not like it says e liquid or mod on the package.
