1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    That's a shame...did they give you the option of making a "donation" to the Police Benevolent Fund in exchange for keeping the mod?

    Check the local night market...this being Thailand, I'm sure it will be 'recycled' at some point. :D
    Sorry to hear of your misfortune...hope you're getting sorted with a new mod. Looks like the only safe place to bring a mod in is in your pockets...don't think they've resorted to cavity searches yet! ;)

    You never know what the next thing is to keep those foreigners from bringing their mods in and not spending their money on stinkies!

    Next we will have to smuggle vape products as this was some kind of real drugs, this is getting stupid.

    Looks like it is time to go to a country with a common sense rather than getting this bullcrap.

    Yep...and with the new increase in ciggie taxes, there's been a corresponding increase in the purchase of e-cigs. One supplier was quoted as saying that on a normal day, he sells Bt 10k but that's doubled to Bt 20k since the announcement of the new cig taxes.

    This has been all over the Thai FB vape groups...numbers being quoted are that the e-cig market in Thailand is worth ~Bt 6 Billion (~US$182 million), and that there are over 300,000 vapers in LOS. Not small numbers, if they can be believed. :)

    Wouldn't be surprised if these figures were correct or even under the real numbers, like I said I see more and more Thais vaping.

    They love electronics, gadgets and vape products fit them perfectly.

    Back when we had a brick and mortar shop over here it was full from opening to closing.

    feel like you, Thai who a got bit of money enjoy new technologies, like small bmw and mercedez, fashion bags, perfume, mbr, whisky even vine. It's also a question of face. Even if could be bad ( not made in Thailand) they'll not come back to lao khao, driving a tata, rolling there Mekhong tobacco.
