I live in the mountains in Spain & do not receive any info regarding vape shops being open here. I just wondered if anyone knew? I have tried an Internet search with no luck..
Any help appreciated
Down to my last coil & the liquid you really didn't like but now have to use

Hi Morticia.... Im also in Spain, or North Korea, it's hard to tell the difference right now ;-)

They were open last week, because estancos were exempt from the lockdown and the government classify vaping goods as "tobacco products" most vaping shops were open too. The enhanced lockdown measures over the weekend shouldn't have changed that, since estancos are still open I would assume vaping shops too can keep their doors open. I stocked up on saturday so haven't seen first hand if they're still open yet but I think your chances are good.

Stay safe.

@Morticia Nightshade, @Cloud-FF7 may be of some help. As they're also based in Spain and have been doing a lot of searching for online vape shops recently and may well be able to tell you who's open and shipping.

Also it may be an idea with liquid to get some base, Nicotine and a flavouring pack/one shot concentrate. As with the way things are, we aren't at all sure how long supplies of liquid may last.

Most vape shops are closed,2 shops in my town and the closest big city (Alicante) has also all their vape shops closed.
If you look at some of the websites they say they are closed but you can still order online,i had to do that because i was running low on e-liquid and needed a new atomizer.

I wouldnt risk the time and fuel to go to any of the shops,just order online or maybe some tobacco shops carry some vape stuff but their selection isnt really that good.

they only have some overpriced crappy e-liquid and alot of juuls but no coils or cotton,atleast in the tobacco shops in my town.

Hi sweetie!
Thanks Anna, we are all doing fine. Lock down day 16. All family members still talking to one another.
We live in the city but not in an apartment, so the kids can still go outside and play and I can sit in the garden and vape and drink my coffee. It could be MUCH worse.
Be safe.


New member @Cloud-FF7 has covered the situation pretty well for Spain in general and the mainland in particular.
A few of the shops on the island/mainland are still taking online orders but with delivery by service and not via the post office/Correos.

Cheers
I

I can confirm that my local vape shop in Fuengirola is still open as of 06/03. Apparently he was visited by the police last week and had to show all of his licenses and permits, the police ended up confirming that his business has the same status as an estanco (tobacco shop) therefore is on the list of businesses that can continue operating... so other than a limit of 2 people inside the shop at any one time, they are still trading. Hope this helps.

Glad to hear that the shops over there are open.
Here in Almoradi (Alicante province) the 2 shops are still closes,and in Alicante only 1 is open the rest are closed.

Sporadic news says that the confinement might end at the end of April here in Spain,so not sure that will apply to vape shops,but for now in this area (apart from a few) they are all closed.
