Cheers all...
Its been a bit since I've dropped by.
As more & more Bitcoin Atm's arrive on the planet,
I dropped by to see if there's suppliers listed by payment method?
June 2015..I still see reviews Positive & Negative,
Suppliers by county.
How many still buy online compared to Brick&Mortar?
I notice a big difference between Asia & USA in crypto currency use too but
was delighted to see US online vendors accepting BTC.
Oh btw I dont have any "relationship" to any vendors or cryptocurrency just observing
Apparently the postal service is badly broken. Sorry for online vendors. A few years ago most of us here were dependent on online vendors, but no more. B&M's are even coming to my remote area and I'm starting to see my first vapers in the wild.
Time to support my local merchants. Talk face to face instead of getting ignored emails.
I've noticed a lot of online vape shops are closing. Brick and mortar shops are still open in my area, so it doesn't seem like they're being affected. I've been getting emails from online shops announcing their closing dates. Do you think it is from all the vaping hysteria going on and flavor bans? Are brick and mortar shops closing in your areas?
Well...it looks like US buyers' chances to buy vaping products from Chinese vendors and pay with PP...is likely coming to an end. I was just browsing Heaven Gifts again and the following jumped out at me. They have none of the major CC options listed for payment either. Glad I got in an order earlier last week and it was shipped already.
I now wonder how long before other Chinese vape products vendors will post something similar.

Today in the mail, the snail mail, i received a large envelope from VUSE with a two page add for a new product and it was addressed to my name.
Now i know i havent used their product and i havent signed up to receive any info from them (VUSE). I also bought all my gear online from various Vape vendors and none of it was VUSE or any type of chepo vape cigs. So one of the vendors went behind my back and sold VUSE my info. I dont know which vendor but one of them did, looks like ill be getting more junk in my mail box.

Im in Illinois, effective 5pm today all non essential business are being forced to close.
Im sure vape stores fall into that category.
And most online shops reside in California, which Im not sure if they are locked down yet, but likely will be.
What online stores will continue to operate?
Id order from misthub today, since they are in Illinois, but they are closed on weekends.
So what are the options for Juice supply?

I was sort of counting on them for odds and ends once the FDA rules kick in in May, or if there are laws passed between now and then.... but it looks like they will be shut down:
China Effectively Bans Online Sales of E-Cigarettes
China Bans Online Sales of E-Cigarettes
I have several fasttech and several vaporl orders that have not shipped yet too.
EDIT: Although the article does say "“There is no law and regulation in China that forbids the online sale of e-cigarette yet,” said Ou Junbiao, head of the Electronic Cigarette Industry Committee of China. "
EDIT #2: vaporl does have a US warehouse too though, although oddly enough the shipping is cheaper from Hong Kong.
