    Australia to ban liquid nicotine from July 1st. Unless you have a doctors prescription. No longer can you import it by mail or bring it with you on the airplane. Fines up to $220,000 Australian dollars. It's like a bad dream for Aussie Vapers and a big deterrent to any Vapers thinking of a holiday in Australia.

    Heard about this...guess it's a good thing Oz is closed. By contrast, I believe vaping is legal (& encouraged) in New Zealand. I know where I'd be going if I head in that direction. :)

    NZ is where everyone ordered their nicotine from. The shops all sold out with in a couple of days of the announcement. I can't help but think big Tabacco is behind this.

    $220,000 fine is just insane. Especially when you can buy cigarettes at any supermarket, petrol station or convenience store.
