Puts ingy and Simon in a difficult legal position with the classies here. WA never banned online sales, but SA are No laws passed yet - and there will be six months to adjust if passed. |

Got 6+ months to sort it by the sounds

The legislation is for retail outlets not second hand sales between private people.

I'm Savvas, the chair of AVATAR, the Australian Vaping Advocacy, Trade, and Research organisation, a registered non-profit advocacy organisation headquartered in South Australia. AVATAR is Australia's peak vape industry body, comprising dozens of Australia's largest vape retailers. We work with government and the media to promote and protect the rights of vapers around the country, and have spent the last two years (and hundreds of thousands of dollars) travelling across Australia to meet with politicians and policy makers on the federal level and in every state and territory to let them know the impact regressive legislation like this is having on the economy, jobs, and most importantly, the health of everyday Australians.
All that time and money and all we get is this, and you are asking for more money. Wake up and stop packaging juices with cartoon like labels that can be construed as marketing to children and half the objections are gone, you juice makers are competing to get market share with your crazy names and funky labels and have become your own worst enemy.

Australia has always followed in Americas footsteps Mallee and juice is no exception. I remember when I was a little kid in NZ - getting lollies from family visiting OZ was such a treat - you had smarties years before NZ did  We had more sensible English lollies..... |

if the Bill is passed, it will be six months before enforcement so you would still have time to visit and support those stores. Confession - If I visited SA I would go to VE on a Thursday when the Vaping Bogan works - I really disliked him and his reviews until I saw a live feed with him and he is really a lovely guy  His youtube persona is an act. Well mostly anyway.
I've traded emails with him, and yes he's nice bloke.

I have more proof that the lunatics are running the asylum.
I went to the city tonight to watch Free Solo, as part of the Adelaide Film Festival. I very rarely visit the big smoke, and even rarer is a trundle down Hindley St.
I was absolutely gobsmacked that every second venue is a shisha bar. Tuesday night and they are all packed with young hipsters choofing down lovely flavoured tobacco. Inside, outside, on the street.
HTF is this legal? Just makes all the boneheaded vape legislation look even more ridiculous, if that is possible.

But I doubt the kids that use them believe that the universe was started with a one syllable sound |

I remember spinning out watching all the old nanna's toking on their hookah's down at Ricketts Point, thinking they were smoking billy's. That was cultural. This is just ensuring the next generation of tobacco addicts. |
