product(BWB).
Someday soon, I'm gonna enter the DIY zone.
But for now, it's still a lot cheaper than buying cartons of cigs from the
Indian smokeshop across the river.
Maybe the wizard could steer me in the right direction... |

We've also started labeling all of our juice bottles with ingredients, nic by vol, and warning labels.
Oh and Pit, 30ml or less is the allowed sizes. Anything above will be bulk and not for retail. | Rule set by whom, TVECA?
I've heard nothing at all about this rule before and I somewhat follow what the FDA is up to. |

The FDA has no authority to limit bottle sizes to 30ml. If TVECA is suggesting people do that well, I don't know, it is just anti-consumer and a bad idea. It's like how bars in my state don't let you buy more than 2 6-packs at once, so you have to go dump it in your car and come back. |

Now to make it clear, you don't have a minimum you can buy like your 2 6pack example, you can buy 10 30ml if you wanted too, there is no limit that I know of that has been discussed.
The FDA has authority. Ecigs since April 2011 are an unregulated tobacco product and soon to be a regulated product.
The way I see it is, we can all sit back and let the FDA run rampent or we can have groups like the TVECA negotiate with the FDA and come up with a plan that allows ecigs to continue to be sold. I guess your not aware of the TVECA and how hard we have fought to keep ecigs "legal" in this country and the EU. |

"The TVECA consulted with the FDA and the FDA told TVECA that they plan to implement a 30ml bottle size limit (for ____ reason, with ____ justification)"?
The FDA has still not deemed ecigs under Title IX, so to say they have authority is wrong at this point. (At least how I understand it...) They can only interfere when we are making health claims or saying ecigs are cessation devices... (of course they overstep this and keep seizing shipments from China)
You can say X group fights hard, but the FDA is steamrolling activist groups. The ANTZ, BT, BP lobbies just have way more money, not your fault.
I don't see the reasoning behind limiting people to buy 10x 30ml bottles and not letting them buy a 30ml bottle. It's just a stupid rule no matter who came up with it and until you provide proof the FDA has anything to do with it, and it is not just some TVECA rule, I don't believe you. |

I don't have to share our trade association's info with you, so if you believe me or not I don't care. This is what we've discussed in our meetings so far ...
Of course they are steamrolling every group! Why do you think the TVECA was started? It was the founding members that kept ecigs legal so far ... we're not going to let the tobacco lobbyists take us down, savvy?
When you buy your six pack of beer notice how they cans/bottles come in 12/16oz bottles, etc? Why? Its called a standard. That standard is going to come about for ecig juice to, its called regulation and it will come to this industry just like any other. We are still in the infant stages of ecigs. Just like you can buy a keg, you can still buy large amounts, who-how-where still remains to be set in stone.
We're not the enemy, we're on the side of the consumers, suppliers and manufacturers. I've made this as clear as I can, don't shoot the messenger, or the people that actually give a damn about this industry.
One more note, if you researched who we are, who we are associated with, then the word "them" would be crystal clear. |
