Open Source Vapor closing as a result of Indiana's law

Has any one found out what other companies got shut down amid this shitn

I imagine there will be quite a few. The deal is that the state mandated that security firms store samples of all liquid made and/or sold in the state. Not totally horrible BUT only one security firm met the criteria at the time of the laws creation and for some stupid ass reason no other firms are allowed to qualify now. So the one firm that met the storage criteria approves, ignores or denies the application. They accepted 6 companies as they didnt want to stretch themselves too thin.

At least this is my understanding from the reading that i have done.

That sucks! Before DIY I used to buy there. Great product…It’s where my love for medicine flower extracts came from. Josh seemed very nice guy too, sad… wish him the best!

All Recipes are now copied into ELR, really sucks what happened to them seems incredibly unfair

Political corruption has been out of control for to long and only getting worse. Greedy bastards should be in jail.

I think you meant excrement head.

NiJo · June 24, 2016, 6:36am

I think unfair is the wrong word (respectfully). Corrupt seems to be the politics they’re practicing in Indiana. Too close to Chicago apparently.

Anonymiss · June 24, 2016, 6:40am

I have to agree that situation certainly has the reek of corruption to it.

Lostmarbles · June 24, 2016, 8:35am

Wow! Thanks for this.

I’m thinking he’s more of an “incestuous fellow”.

Haven’t read far enough to see if anyone else has mentioned it yet, but yes.Doodlebug’s EJuice (had never heard of them until the Reddit post on 6-1) https://www.reddit.com/r/Vaping_Deals/comments/4lztj4/doodlebugs_e_juice_closing_sale/

I’ve been trying to keep a close eye on the state of things (closures, lawsuits, etc)

It is always darkest before the dawn:

Gregg wants review of vaping law; Senate leaders already taking a look

Democratic gubernatorial candidate John Gregg said, if elected, he would seek to change new laws governing the e-cigarette liquid industry, which some vaping retailers and manufacturers have called monopolistic and corrupt.

Indiana Senate leaders are also looking at the issue and impact of the law, which takes effect July 1.

I placed an order with Open Source after reading your post.I hope I can order there again someday soon.

Sprkslfly · June 26, 2016, 8:56am

If nothing else, it’s nice of you just because, every single sale they can get before closing the doors means less money down the tubes for them!

Kudos to you for helping them out, and kudos to them for sharing the love (recipes) with the community. (Still hate to see the closures all the same, or at least the quality ones)

MysticRose · June 27, 2016, 8:51am

Thank you very much for taking the time and all your hard work!

HighPlainsVaper · June 27, 2016, 3:37pm

I live in Indiana and the new law is being challenged in court. Also, democratic governor candidate John Gregg wants to repeal it if elected.

Oops, article aleady posted above but point is this was a flawed, knee jerk reaction by Indiana. Not surprising!
