Really good question about local juices. In the US instead if testing many smaller juice companies simply ask the supplier of their ingredients. If they inform them it's safe the liquid maker states that it's safe without doing any testing. I would guess the same happens here
This. Also many specials are forced on to the wholesaler with the retailer keeping it's same margin. The contracts you sign with them are very one sided and have a ton of clauses
Thanks for posting that. It's one of the clearest articles on what the regulations are going to be and what the effects are. There won't be more then three to four independent e cig Brands left after this. I wonder if there also plans for any of these companies to make a move to purchase a...
From my conversations with US juice manufacturers you will be able to count the amount of companies that produce proper liquids on one hand. The money involved with testing will crush 95%+ of the market
Lol he has a pen device for his 'oils' . They come in capsules like you get for fountain pens with no real smell. You can use mods for thc oils but the cost makes it pointless. With the smaller devices made for oils you get a smaller Vape but it lasts longer and is a lot less wasteful. Also...
Didn't do it for me. A friend was down from California a few weeks back. He has a medical marijuana business but him and his wife both also Vape and buy from a store near their store. He had the best coffee and the best tobacco flavour juices I've ever tried but being a complete stoner he...
Great story and probably one of hundreds of thousands if not millions. I hear it every day from users who tell me they love e cigs. How they've used them to quite smoking cigarettes and how they feel better along with those around them. This crusade against e cigs isn't about the benefits or...
Good article. There's been a spate of misinformation and isolated incident reporting about e cigs as we build up to the FDA decision. The vast majority of it is scare mongering
It depends on the size of the parcel, where its coming from and the site/company sending it. The bigger companies that do a lot of export through these companies can normally get the price down to a very reasonable rate. $80 seems high
They normally work out VAT as 14% of the price of the goods plus ten percent.
I tend to order direct from the website of whatever companies juices I want to try.
I've been importing juice for a while and only had one issue when it came through UPS. Their service was atrocious. With DHL and FedEx I've had brilliant service with plenty of times the juice has shipped on the Friday and been here on the Monday from the US. I just pay VAT and sometimes the...
I think you really need to read up on the US government and how things work. The industry for lobbyist is ridiculously large and the only way to get elected is to spend money. Big tobacco spends big while vaping has almost zero representation. I've done business with PMI and what that company...
Firstly the EU is also copying these rules so we could lose all EU and US made juices. To some that's not a problem as they Vape local juices but that leads to two problems. First our government copy many laws from the EU so we could expect these laws to land here but just as bad is if the EU...
Where are you based? My advice is to visit a decent Vape store to try out some different juices and nic level to find your sweet spot. Also don't Vape Chinese liquids, they have no safety regs and tend to use inferior ingredients
eCig a like devices tend to be more popular in the US and UK then here. The other problem is pricing. They tend to favour markets with high cigarette prices due taxation. The Juul cartridges work out to 60 Rand in the US and here would be about 80 Rand which is a lot for the equivalent to a pack...
