Hello you lovely lot. Thought would give an update what I just heard. Its hard enough for small vendors to get noticed and make a living, but I just heard from a vandor also a good friend. That his page has been pulled from Facebook. It would seem apparent that Facebook have now said that they will not allow the promoting and selling of, tobacco and tobacco related products. I do hope this is not the case, but just in case vendors check your terms and conditions now. This vendor has lost 14000 contacts and all the money paid on advertising.if anything you can salvage something if it happens to you.

Unbelievable > They've been more than happy to take the revenue for advertising for God knows how long. Another example of our country at it's best

Some idiot's obviously complained. I bet they don't know the facts about e cigarettes or have even bothered to find out. Typical facebook.

Sad news for small vendors, another hit :-[ I've also noticed since its been plastered all over the internet that pg is bad for you, more customers been ordering more vg based liquids. It's just like anything if you don't have in moderation, it's ok for them to allow young people to get toxicated on alcohol all the time with all the chemicals, and let children play call of duty running around with knifes stabbing each other brain washing them, or well its only the tax there after with 1m vapers I'm sure there losing the fight. People just need to research the facts them self instead of listening to what the government spoon feeds them.

What pisses me off most about this is I know of a site on there that's all about making jokes about dead babies and another about how funny cancer is, and apparently they won't ban them as they're not deemed to be offensive...yet asmall vendors wanting to keep their customers updated are banned? How is that right?
