So I just hopped onto ecigexpress, and looks like they have removed everything from their site except for flavors and bottles. No VG/PG or nic available anymore that I can see. Of course there are other sites where supplies can still be ordered, and I'm still convinced DIY will never completely die, but the bans are now officially affecting our community. Stock up while you can.
Just did live chat with Patty from ecigexpress and confirmed THEY DO NOT SELL VG, PG OR NICOTINE ANYMORE.
Patti confirmed because they have flavorings on the same site as nicotine, vg and pg it cause issues with local police as Washington State just banned flavors and they're based in Washington. Woof.
For VG/PG, just hit up Amazon.
Or Essential Depot (though I haven't been there in a while).
Please, try to stick with the small businesses out there trying to serve our industry before you go to these pirates. Liquid barn, BCV, NicRiv, Heartland, or even a canadian company or UK....anything before amazon/WalMart. You think they care about your right to vape? No way.
I use Carolina Xtract for nicotine and BCF for flavorings.
Between dietary restrictions, tools and other materials, I'm already placing monthly orders with Amazon. I see no harm in adding a couple gallons of VG to my cart once a year.
which ones?
I use froggys fog. But some people prefer the essential depot.
I'm surprised they're still called ECig Express. I expect them to change to Express Flavors or something less vape'y. BullCity did this a years ago. They must just be "ahead of their time" with that preemptive move.
I just looked at their website and it says they are now called flavorjungle
It was in their logo but now it's gone again. Maybe they are testing images
So what now...lets say they stop selling this stuff together in online websites...where did the earliest adopters of vaping get their stuff? I know like VG and PG can be gotten at wal-mart and tractor supply. But what about the nicotine and the flavorings? I mean screw em, get back to where it began right?
Flavorings shouldn't be an issue. I'm guessing no matter what happens with the legislation, those won't be going anywhere. Nicotine tho I'm not sure. There have to be sources out there besides dedicated vape supply websites, but I don't know any myself.
Just go to the source? Is NicRiver not selling in WA anymore? Or any of the other dedicated nicotine vendors?
Nicotine River and Vaperstek qnd Carolina extracts will probably.be able to continue selling nicotine and base. BCF already went to just selling flavors.
There may end up being a shakeup, where one or two states will have the rights for stores to sell all the needed supplies, and either the major vendors will relocate there or be replaced by companies from there.
bought a year supply of juice at EJUICECORNER
they are having an insane sale right now. That's who i've been buying from. I joined this reddit DIY_eJuice forum because I figure it's going to take me a year to get the hang of making my own.
I quit a 40 year smoking habit 8 years ago. my bp is 120/80 and lungs are pink and clear now. This ban on flavors is ridiculous.
Send a letter to all of your representatives, Federal, State, and local!!! This is what they need to know.
I've done that over and over again. Inslee just does whatever he wants by executive order. We have no say in the matter. Tobacco bonds are going to default if people keep vaping. He said he realized that adults will suffer for this but he's trying to save the teens. I hate when they spin the facts to further their agenda.
After 8 years of vaping flavors, why would I want to taste tobacco? This is utter nonsense.
The FDA said that there's no control over what people mix with already approved fda ingredients. Rules only apply to Retail. But is it safe to mix if we don't know what we're doing? I've relied on professional labs to mix my juice. Hope this is ok.
It’s safe to add your own flavors. There are websites dedicated to this very thing. Just be sure to use a scale that measures to .01 grams and go for it. I just started DIY with my flavors and use recipes I found online and so far have been pleasantly surprised.
Anyplace out there where the PG/VG nic as cheap as ecigexpress?
They just had a huge sale, probably just sold out of everything. No biggie.
I'm not so sure. Check out their website menu. A lot of areas of the site that used to exist are no longer there, and a search for VG/PG or nic turns up zero results. In the past when they've been out of stock you could still see the product but there would just be a note saying sold out.
Advocating for panic buying? Stop. All you're doing is creating an artificial supply gap, and driving up prices.
