Public consultation Tobacco Products Directive

[Scylla]

Maybe a silver lining to being old is that I could now order enough juice to last me the rest of my life

Though, knowing me, I'll probably forget where I've put it

Seriously though, this latest development is a great worry.

I can see me converting my savings into ejuice if this is the case.

[Chrissie]

I agree Scylla, this latest development is a worry

[hissie]

Oh crickey. I'm going to have to sort my money out and see what I can afford. Not too sure how mcuh juice to even consider purchasing since I was relying on other sources to still be allowed to sell e juice.

What's peoples plans in the event there is an outright ban?

[Scylla]

I'm still thinking, Hissie, if you can call it that

That being the case there will be some very busy customs officials sorting through the hundreds of thousands of small packages arriving from China - perhaps they're training Spaniels as we speak!

Outrageous but that's what we've come to expect from the EU.

That isn't too far from the truth....they already have sniffer dogs for tobacco.

Foxy,to me that says that E-Cigs are going to be tobacco products.So the outcome of the MHRA doesnt really matter now does it. Its crap all of it.They'll regulate as Tobacco then they'll ban it.....just like they want to do with everything except cigs cause they can't ban those.I'm annoyed >

Hissie,Stock up on unflavoured,higher nic liquid....thats all you can do.

If there's an outright ban....i'll be buying a pack and a lighter and looking to the blackmarket.

Goodness knows Hissie, what are suppliers like James going to do as well? Like you I'd counted on still being able to purchase juice over the internet.

Even if one of us went on an overseas 'holiday' for supplies I suppose we'd never make it through customs with our contraband?

Total numpty question from me - IF a ban came into place, would it also mean ecig hardware would similarly be banned?

Numpty answer - I don't see how they can ban hardware ???

Think I'll be getting a haul of flavourless nic juice from Flavourart as well as buying some from James.

What then would be the point of being able to buy ecigs without the 'fuel' to power them Scylla?

I'm doubtless being my usual dense self here and missing the obvious.

No point, Perpy.

Tthere wouldn't be any point unless we can somehow obtain "fuel". Hence I reckon we need 2 years' supply of juices etc to keep us going while developments take place.

I can't imagine that e-cigs will disappear off the face of the planet. The Big Boys may create their own, copying existing to varying extents, and costing lots because juices/refills will be taken into the Medicines fold Or mfrs like Janty may become compliant with new laws, at great expense.

I can only look at the short term.

[Perpetua]

Me too, anything else is too depressing.

At long last we have a wonderful alternative to smoking and some blerdy beaucrats want to louse it up for us. >

[hissie]

So, what approximatly amounts to 2 yrs worth of juice?

[Perpetua]

I'm not brilliant at this stuff Hissie, but say you vaped 10ml's of juice a week x by 52 weeks that's just over 1/2 a litre of juice for a year, I think.
