I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I am responsible for everything I do.

Fuck the fed gov for that stupid ass shipping ban. Most vape places I've ordered from use "Route" to insure packages. I had the same issues as yourself once, contacted Route via email and they had a refund to me in a few days. Was really simple. Hopefully for you have the same luck regardless of who they use. |
| They got back to me today and were cool about and understood that the delay is outside of expected timeframes. So they offered me a choice of a full refund, or replacement order. I replied that I would take the replacement order, if they can send it via USPS. And if not, I would take the refund. We’ll see what happens. I told them if they send a replacement order, and the original order shows up later on, that they can provide a prepaid shipping label and I will just send it right back out. |
| I won't be in approximately 3 weeks. I'm down to the last little bit of nice base and can't source any for a reasonable price. Local shop will sell me unflavored but strongest they will do is 24mg and they want almost $15 for a 15ml bottle. That would last me maybe 1 week. If I don't locate another source, I guess I take my chances on quitting. |
| I wish someone would come out with a replacement for the DovPo topside single 21700 squonk mod. |

I've been using Nude Nicotine almost the entire time I've been mixing. Great quality, very clean flavor. They stopped shipping for a while, but are now back at it. It's not cheap at $180 per liter of 100mg nic shipped ($155 + $30 to ship, at least 2x what it was...), but the final cost is still only .60/100ml of 3mg juice. Nude Nicotine I've found a few more sellers with better prices, but have no idea if their product is as good. |

I just opened my last bottle of nic. One liter of 100mg, 100% PG. It should last me a good long while, even making juice for my GF and I. I did a quick search for some nicotine vendors that I remembered from before. Looks like Carolina Xtracts is selling nic at fairly normal prices. They have a disclaimer that they no longer sell nicotine for vaping purposes, and it’s only to be used for sublingual tinctures and whatnot. That’s one way to get around the shipping ban, I suppose.

I gave up vaping 18 months ago after vaping for 6 years, prior to that I smoked for 42 years. My new doctor recently arranged for me to have my breathing capacity tested by a specialist, I'm pleased to say that I passed with flying colors. I am now vape and smoke free. It saves a fortune. |

All the shops here are now weed/THC/CBD/Alternatives and for nicotine vaping 99% disposables. I still like to coil, build and vape... |

| I stopped for a good while and tried the oral pouches, but for me personally the pouches are an inferior delivery method as far as dosing goes - I can't regulate em like I can when I choose to vape. |

I like the VooPoo boxes. I have only used the Drag series. I really liked the form of the Drag3 but the trap door for the batteries was finicky. The Drag4 had the 510 connector 'glued' in so was a week point and inconsistent between like devices. The Drag5 is pretty ding dang nice. The 510 connector has a mechanical connection with screws. And I had to drop the power to 60w for the same devices and coils I was running on the Drag3 or 4 at 65w to get the same production. Im using Dead Rabbit v3 RDA and Fat Rabbit RTA with twisted wire coils. |
