After months of rumored bans on all flavored vape liquids and an unwarranted assault on the entire vaping industry, the FDA announced last week that it will indeed be banning some flavored vape liquids but the ban is very specific. We’ve been getting quite a few questions from our customers about the ban so we thought we would share what we know.
Vape Shops and Flavored Pod Vapes in Overland Park and Leawood, KS
First of all not all flavored vape liquids are being banned. In fact all vape juices for mod vaporizers or open tank vapes will still be on the shelves and legal to be sold for the foreseeable future as they are NOT part of the ban. What IS part of the ban is any flavored pod style vape or pod vape refill with the exception of tobacco and menthol flavors. While we don’t exactly understand the rationale behind allowing tobacco and menthol flavored pods and pod refills to be excluded from the ban, we will nevertheless cease the sale of all other flavors at the close of business on January 31st, 2020. Many of our customers have been asking about disposable pods being and the answer is YES, they will be effectively banned unless they are tobacco or menthol flavored. Because of the impending ban, we at Overland Park Vape Shop will not be ordering any more pod style vaporizers or flavored pod refills however we will continue to stock tobacco and menthol flavors as they are not part of the FDA’s ban currently. As previously stated, our vape shop will continue to sell flavored vape pods including disposable pods and flavored pod refills until we either run out of stock or the ban goes into effect on February 1st, 2020 with no exceptions after that. We apologize for the stress this may cause some of our customers but we must abide by the ban and cease all sales of flavored pod style vapes at the close of business January 31st, 2020. We urge our customers to come stock up while we are able to still sell them and we will try to make sure we have plenty in stock but time is running out. If you have any questions or want to stock up flavored vape pods, come by Overland Park Vape Shop at 151st and Hardy just west of 69 Highway.
