health cabin?

Postby funtobefemale » October 9th, 2011, 9:01 pm

I was looking at the health cabin website and there are a lot of good deals, and when I put in info to check shipping it said EMS (recommended) $16 and $5.70 (for some other kind that takes longer).

this site is in China and I'm in the US. I am always wary of such good deals. Does anyone experience or words of wisdom on this site?

Many people buy direct from China. Generally it pays when you buy in bulk to make the EMS shipping pay off and order items that you can wait awhile for the items to arrive. There used to be A LOT of customs seizures but that has stopped.

I used to order some stuff from China and had no problems but I personally prefer US made liquids and now try to support the US vendors though most of their stuff does come from China as well. Personal preference.

Just don't order anything that you HAVE to have quick ;)

What were the seizures for? And why do they not happen anymore?

The FDA (which we've been fighting) was seizing ecig shipments from China to both vendors and customers. The federal judge finally sided against FDA and the seizures stopped. If you look on ECF in the news/legislation sections you'll see a ton of talk about it. Court case dragged on for a long time and there was a lot of posting about it on ECF.

For now we are still fighting of course but originally the FDA tried to claim ecigs were "drug delivery devices" and wanted to treat them like the patches, nicotine inhalers or other cessation methods. That would have meant pulled from the market, years of testing and big bucks paid to FDA for the pleasure of approval. The judge said no, they should be treated like tobacco cigarettes and they are not drug delivery devices.

Now we hope to get a reduced harm category so they won't be taxed like cigarettes but taxed lower based on lower risk. Harm Reduction.

You could also peek at CASAA's site and see some stuff there about what we have faced, what we are still battling.

Some folks just spoke in front of the FDA recently at a harm reduction workshop. There is video too.. I'll have to look for it. Elaine from CASAA spoke as well as some others in our corner.

It's more cheaper buy from China factory,
If you want to buy for your personal use, please consider the producing / shipping time / cost.

Most time we only accept bulk or OEM orders :)
