Tried ordering from vapebox today and during checkout it said my location was blocked from ordering. I contacted support and he said state law prohibited online sales in Massachusetts. I've not heard of any new laws banning online sales here and had no issues ordering from other sites yesterday. Anyone from Ma have any similar issues?
I know that there are threads covering bans in individual states, but I thought it might be a good idea to have a thread which covers all state bans.
So far, I know of the temporary, but complete ban, in Massachusetts, and a flavor ban announced in Michigan, Washington state, and Rhode Island. The New York ban is not in effect yet, but will be on October 4, I believe. Not sure about the other three states.
If there are more states which I'm not aware of, please list them.

Michigan's flavored vaping ban in effect: Here are the new rules
VA - Stop an Online Sales Ban and Baseless Nicotine Cap (HB 1185)
Banning "Online" and banning anything over 20mgl.
I vape 36mgl, thats what has kept me from inhaling cigars for the last 7 years!!!!!!
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:

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.

if true then it’s a good thing for those who have been hoarding errr I mean stashing vape gear.
unfortunately it’s a terrible thing for those wanting to quit smoking.
So there is now a flavor ban that will go into effect in the next two weeks and everyone here has questions. I'm wondering will I be able to order online? Nobody knows that I am ordering flavored e-liquid besides the company I decide to order from.
I am having trouble finding online sources for my Vaping supplies. Since Massachusetts banned the sale of flavored tobacco products I have only found one website that will ship to here. I do have a local shop but he doesn't have the best.variety now that he has to hide the flavored juices from the authorities.. I do apologize if this is posted in the wrong place
tomorrow in Massachusetts I was told by Gary at MVS during the 4 month ban of vape gear while investigating why people in the US have gotten very sick or died from vaping NON VAPING related marijuana oil products.
So find your friends out of state or get online tonight to order your coils and juices.
Maybe the investigation should be why people in other countries haven’t been getting sick and why this is JUST happening now after a couple of decades of people vaping e juice. Could be something to do with the government and politicians trading in a multi billion dollar industry and let’s not forget the lobbyists errr donors.
And yes I emailed and called my knee jerk reacting guv Baker to express my embarrassment that one of the states with the highest quality Universities aren’t asking for FACTS.
Big Tobacco (and Pharm) and the governments reason of losing $7 billion dollars to people switching from known carcinogenic cigarettes to less harmful vaping products.
As more bans get put into place and more people get sick or die from contaminated black market ejuice and THC products.
Just as planned so they can point their fingers and scream - we told you it was dangerous!!
I've seen alot of posts now a days about the bills being passed without vaping.... from banning the sales of ejuice to 75% sales tax..... are we doomed? it seems like the government gives no ....s about our health and choice to vape....

I'm thinking of ordering from Fasttech, I know alot of you have said you do and with 100 premade claptons for just a couple buck I see why. My question to you all is how long do you generally wait to recieve orders? 2-3 weeks or so?
