Hows the vaping scene in the USA now?

[BJT100]

Hi all, used to be on here a few yrs ago. Im in Australia. Our vaping here has been pretty much canned. You can't buy mods or coils. Vape shops have all been shut down. You can only get crappy mouth to lung cheapo rubbish from pharmacies but not all stock them or want to. About all else is black market dodgy stuff which are just rubbish disposables with who knows what in them coming in from Asia. Im down to my last surviving mod a Smoant and have just 8 coils left for my Zeus tank. No flavours left so just vaping unflavoured with some nic.
Hows the vape scene going there, can you still get anything you want?

Welcome back, @BJT100
As far as I know, in most states vape supplies are able to get shipped and have vape shops. There are a few states that have cracked down on the vape.

Its just HORRIBLE what the powers at be have done there. They would rather have people smoking, aa they (gov. and hospitals) make more money from the fags

Yes like Wolfie said it's spotty here, nic is hard to get in some places but flavoring seems to still be available but not as widespread. Just lets you know how free you really are.

Hi thanks. I have noticed a huge increase in people smoking again even though cigarettes are insanely expensive. 40 to 50$ for a pack of 20. Some cost more. What its caused is a huge black market in illegal cigarettes and tobacco. We have here whats called the tobacco wars where middle east crime gangs extort business owners that have legit tobacco shops and threaten them to sell their products. If they refuse they firebomb the business. Some get their houses shot up.
On the news there is typically at least 2 businesses burnt down each week. There are a lot of shops set up by them forcing people to run them disguised as gift shops and convenience stores. There's one where we live which was first a lolly, sweets shop but authorities caught on elsewhere about them and busted several so here it changed its name to a gift shop. They're run by criminals like the one here. The Govt completely got it wrong and has created a huge problem which I can't see them fixing.
Our country is a mess these days.
@Jimi Nic there's no way you can buy it now here. I still have enough to last for 5 yrs in the freezer but I'll be binning it sometime soon when our coils run out.

Can you still buy resistance wire and make your own coils?

Hi mate I gave up searching after several months. There is 1 place left I know of that sells flavours but they are not a "vape" supplier though I know that's who their main customers are.
I don't want any flavours now as I saw the coil life quadrupole when I went flavourless. Wish id realised the difference when we had about 100 coils left. That flavour shop freaked out when I asked them if they knew where I could get any coils or mods, I think they thought I was a cop or something.
