Vape Shipping

[englishmick]

Saw this today. It's a detailed look at the shipping of vape gear and how vendors evade/ignore the shipping bans. There was one interesting mention of Trump. I know he said during his previous term that he would protect vaping. According to this article he had a meeting with a vaping advocate during his recent campaign and said the same thing again. Also some discussion of possible future action on the shipping front.

I'd be more curious to see if the bans for shipping e-liquid would be eliminated. Getting the hardware hasn't been an issue for me (knock on wood). I'd love to see some vendors able to ship to states currently barred.

I keep clickin' my heels and mumblin' "Fastech, My Freedom Smokes" but nothing has happened yet..

I miss Fasttech. Those were the days. But I’m not going anywhere when it comes to RBAs and box mods. I tried my roommates disposable vape and thought it was gross lol! But to each his own. The pendulum will continue to swing. Who knows what that will look like.

Fortunately for me and my timing to start vaping I jumped on the bandwagon and loaded up on my stash- of which I’m currently trying to downsize. I have more than enough hardware and diy supplies to satisfy my hand to mouth cravings until the grim reaper shows up. I’ve even stocked up on some sub ohm tanks and coils for when my eyesight or trembling hands can’t do it any longer.

I'm watching this thread with interest - as unfortunately what happens in Murrica follows over on to thisi side of The Pond

The Day that Fastech went offline was a Very Dark Day.

Isn’t that the truth. They should’ve stayed open. The Chinese have still been selling and shipping to the USA even with the federal ban on shipping and selling vape materials.

I suspect we could all go on and on, literally into the hundreds.

The machine is strong, and ruthless.

Trump may honestly mean to attempt to save vaping but ultimately it is for the individual states to decide.

That's the way it's supposed to be but the feds have an annoying habit of getting in the way. (I'm looking at you, FDA.)

I would rather alcohol & tobacco be removed from under the FDA's purview entirely.

They can't, because (in their minds) we commonfolk are simply Too Stupid To Know.

Read recently that among the teens and 20's age group both smoking and drinking are going out of fashion. Vaping is going up though.

I've seriously considered hats, mugs, & shirts for the #2S2K crowd among us (of which I am one).

Read recently that among the teens and 20's age group both smoking and drinking are going out of fashion. Vaping is going up though.

Reg Watch posted this earlier as part of Brent's interview with Dr. Siegler. Youth smoking rates are almost immeasurably low.

Yes, I'd prefer that kids do nothing, but having been a kid once, I suspect that's an unlikely scenario. I'm thrilled that out of four smoking kids (to which I contributed, sadly), three are now long-term vapers (10+ years, all).

The fourth? Well, he always was the most challenging one of the lot, and I don't expect he'll switch at this point.

What a Long, Strange Trip it's been.

What a Long, Strange Trip it's been.

Remember back in (whenever) that we used to make sure we got our orders in before Chinese New Year? Everyone would start freaking about a month before, and we'd just start buying sheet because there'd be some slightly delayed in shipping times.

Yes, a long and strange trip, indeed.

Small steps, possibly?
