"[FONT=Arial, Verdana]I am enquiring about eBay policy regarding the sale of electronic cigarettes and relates items such as flavouring concentrate mixtures, vapourizers and so on. I do not see much of this listed worldwide on eBay and it seems like a good marketing opportunity, however if these are missing because such ads are being deleted by eBay staff then there's not much point.
An electronic cigarette comprises three parts: a battery, an electric vapourizer element, and a chamber containing some kind of essence mixture. None of these items have been be banned on an individual basis. Typically the flavourings used are a mixture of (some or all of) propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, water and a flavour essence, all of which are legally and easily obtainable through restaurant suppliers or by ordering through a local chemist.
I do not intend to advertise any illegal substance such as items which contain nicotine, only items for which there is no prohibition legally in Australia. One possible item may also be a kit for testing the strength of nicotine concentrate to within 5% accuracy, made from common products available at any supermarket or pet store. As some people use imported nicotine liquid - there is no import ban on this, only a ban on advertising public resale - it may assist them to determine the quality of the product.
Thanks in advance for your considered opinion.[/FONT]"
