At the risk of repeating myself, it is important that everyone realises that this legislation will affect everybody. For example, once vaping falls under tobacco legislation nicotine imports will be the first target, effectively depleting DIY options as well as local manufacturing options. Same...

Ironically this will have little to no impact on cigarette smokers. I rather doubt smokers care what the packaging looks like or if its displayed openly or kept under the counter and its not something that's actively advertised anymore .. in any case .. the idea that a colourful picture behind a...

I normally drill with a 1.3 mm bit and generally replace the screw with a stainless steel equivalent. Often the standard screws used are made from some kind of brass and tend to sheer apart once hollowed out. Drilling with small diameter drills is tricky and I've only been able to successfully...

I'd be up for that, any other vape shops willing to take up this challenge? I would also propose a 'kick starter' type fund raiser to prepare the war chest to challenge this legislation. The problem is that from an 'outsiders' point of view especially those of a non-vaper this legislation...

Looks a bit bleak doesn't it? Make your voice heard .. https://vpasa.org.za/index.php/vaping-testimonials/ Perhaps the forum admins can advertise the pending legislation and this link in as many places as possible on the forum?

Concerning advertising it is rather ludicrous. Direct outcomes include no income stream for this forum, no VapeCon, 'blank shops' for vaping, no discounts on any product to be displayed, no vape bars to name a few. On the positive side .. no more spam emails!! ;) In fact, considering the...

The requirement for devices to comply to some 'standard' is effectively opening the door to banning the import of practically all devices since the costs of proving such compliance will be prohibitive to all but perhaps a few. For those who may be able to afford to prove compliance, it is likely...

The photo does not do it justice .. got a great review from Daniel too :)

The annual VapeClub MEGA special is now on with lots of e-liquids and goodies to choose from! I'll give some highlights.. Sony VTC4s - R110 each or R200 for two, Samsung 25r R90 each or R160 for two, Intellicharger D4s 4 bay chargers R300! These are authentic btw, not from Uncle Joe's cousin's...

A big thank you to Eciggssa for organising this, it was (yet another) day to remember! Admittedly I thought 8 people behind the counters with 6 pay points would be enough but as it turned out .. not quite. If I may, I take this opportunity to apologise to everyone who had to wait a long time or...

Oops sorry, missed your name on the copy paste exercise. I believe its all sorted though?

Just remembered, @TheV swapped for @Halfdaft Customs

And the stock has arrived .. at last! :whew: @TheV , @shaunnadan, @morras, @Geldart39, @BeardedVaper93, @Bizkuit, @SamuraiTheVapor, @mad_hatter, @piffht, @RobMcMaster, @RoddieJ, @Greyz, @Rude Rudi, @king-ding-n-ling, @kimbo, @PsyCLown, @Ayoob , if you would be so kind to send @VapeGrrl an email...

I am sad to say this parcel has still not cleared. I really don't understand what the hold up is, usually a customs inspection takes no more than 5 working days to resolve and this has already been twice that. We are making regular enquiries but, while all documentary requirements etc have now...

Got the standard 'queries' from them on Friday so if things progress as per normal it should clear today/tomorrow.
