Sloppy and unprofessional journalism.
This man took his own life. Perhaps the author of this piece of lazy reporting should actually go to the trouble of establishing facts for people.
What did he ingest; how much, what strength?
This incident is not "a hidden danger of e-cigarettes"... it simply proves Nicotine can be dangerous if mistreated.
It's very sad.

Sad news.
...makes me wonder though, what with the comment about £4.99 for 10ml of 20mg.
There's going to be money to be made (and lots of it) but without the funds to jump the TPD hurdle may as well quit while ahead.
If these 'good guys' are in trouble, all we'll have left is TW and a few others... so then it'll be £6.99 for 10ml. Then £7.99...
Gutted really. Was going to order a few bits too.

I make that 963% more expensive than when I first bought ready-to-go unflavoured nic @ 18mg. We knew this was going to happen. Glad to be rid of it all...... Forget governments and what-not, that is simply taking advantage. 1 product, 1 TPD approval/license. 963% increase. No chance. Eat my shorts.  |

Pictures added to reviews are worth 10 points  Do mean 10 points of 0.10 points? It's taken me 2 years to get to 9.32 points (£932?) |

...so if it makes anyone feel more secure and confident in having a few extra tanks, mods in their stash - then do it I say. For what these items cost, it's a worthwhile investment in my eyes. So, do you think should I help my less informed vaping friends stock up on their chosen medium-sized tanks by ordering now from China? I'd hate to not order something now and find there are obstacles getting things near the end of the year. As you say, we'll not know for sure but I like to help. |

A 2ml + tank will be basically a no-no. Good luck to the vape police on that one.... can you imagine trying to stop the auction-site sellers.
Most of my packages from China are low value gifts anyway (according to the declaration).... I don't believe they ever get opened up.
Coils (factory atomiser heads).. ? Surely not...

Thinking about the future and 'moving forward' (one demerit for cliché) what's the thinking about hardware? I keep searching after new shinies, but the mod's aren't going anywhere are they? What about tanks? Should I bag a couple of big-uns or just expect China to send me a few through customs? Anyone know anything? TIA Dave. |

Everything is a bit of a gamble. The higher the risk, the more likely I am to buy it in the UK. If it's Joyetech, I'll only buy it from Joyetech UK for the 6 month warranty. I probably wouldn't buy one (an MVP) from China from what you say. |

I cut the nicotine altogether, once I got down to 6mg I reduced by 1mg every month or so until I was at zero. I never noticed any adverse effects or cravings whatsoever. This is my plan once I get near to halfway through the theoretical 7.4 litres of DIY liquid I have stored for the Zombies. Regardless, I'm going from 6mg to 4.5mg on the 1st October... and down to 3mg on 1/1/2017. |

I do believe I am close to a £10 credit. Not really checked it out. Maybe I can get over the finishing line with some reviews?

I wonder what will happen to them if/when the TPD kicks in? Will it have an effect? I'm guessing the TPD will kill off some and make the existing ones even more expensive with 3 x 10ml for £20 or more. Asking £65 for 100ml of liquid is just 'chancing it' as in a month or two, it'll be down to half price, then probably 25% to get rid. |

Paid £10 for the pleasure of a sim card I can't use!!! and looking on shop website can't get a refund on it either though might try another day Marshmallow is so much better than lollipop though. Lollipop - android's windows 8 LOL What network is it? There are some useful 'features' of certain network SIM (PAYG) cards. For example, on EE you can phone Europe for 2p/5p if you opt in for that free deal. Kind of better than the £1.60 they use as the default charge. Basically, EE are bang out of order, but you can play them at some great games if you want. Purchasable data is totally different on PAYG for example. I use Three & EE SIM cards at times for various options. |

@johanino
My extended family are the Moto crowd.
The 4G 3rd generation is the one I am recommending as it happens (on a budget). Depends how much you paid, but they are down to £99. I bought 2 when they were £109, 2 days after they came down from £129.
I also bought an "E" for £59.... before they went back up to £79.
You win some, you lose some. If you lose bad, it's worth trying to make up some excuse why it's not good for you and you need a refund.
