I don't blame them for closing. They must have gone through hell with the demands - and now of course those who would have accepted the situation have to suffer! It's not fair. If I were BLCK or any other shop, I would block all calls and messages and allow the computer system to sort it out. If someone orders nic, an automated message could come up saying that it will not be delivered and they then have the choice of continuing with the order or not. No human interaction. It's difficult to argue with a computer!
I believe so. Not good when we start demanding what we want from someone that has to answer to a higher power.
I just don't get it! People being "unreasonable and demanded..", because the guidelines provided by Blck were quite clear! Some people just screw it up for others who could have done with stocks of what was legally available... now nothing!
Managed to get in an order of "permissable" items, fortunately.
I was just thinking. Why can't vape shops give away stock and then just charge you extra for shipping due to time and effort involved?
Free VG and nicotine but R250 shipping and admin fees for shipping???

Creative. Could work.
We've even joked with a few local vendors about incorporating a food delivery into it. Buy a dozen roti or samoosas and get a 60ml juice free.
Or going for a jog and 'accidentally dropping' the bottle of juice by accident. I might just be jogging behind them and pick it up idk.
Or in a shopping centre parking lot to park next to me and 'forget' their packet outside their car door and drive off.
Or we 'bump' into each other at Spar and 'accidentally' mix up our trolleys.
All payments via eft after the fact once everyone is safely at home.
Wait I think I've said too much now. No wonder the cops wanna lock me up.
Buy a CBD and get free illegal stock
Hand sanitizer bro. Essential product.

Yeah if only we could get a store to agree to ship other stuff with the sanitizer lol.
I do fully understand their positions though.
It's illegal to sell. And their businesses are at risk. As are potential criminal records etc.
That's why I'm willing to get some watermelon sanitizer .
Epiphany... DIY sanitizer kits
Due to the nature of the Corona virus I add nicotine to completely eradicate the virus from tissue and soft tissue including mucosa membranes.That's why I'm willing to get some watermelon sanitizer .

I think BLCK has closed again (for lockdown) as too many people were demanding nic. What a pity!
Yeah Blck has closed because of that, and it seems the other stores want to close as well. Both that I ordered from have called me to confirm orders and when I enquired they both said they are heading in that direction as well.
It's simple, remove any non-essential items from the site so no one can put it into their basket, and ignore mails from customers asking for it! Now a few fools spoiled it for everyone else.

And I agree with what you said and I agree with their decision.
I also wonder who would be such a buzz kill to make someone close up shop.
Then again I think they opened shop to do us a favour, I don't think it was feasible In the first place to run half a business yet they were willing to.
Thank for trying @Richio
I/we appreciate it.
And the same to the other vendors trying to accommodate us.
@Vaperite South Africa , @Flavour world Sa ,@YeOldeOke etc.
I will miss a few, but please add in their names. it's the least we can do.

I had no problems with my order from Blck, even delivered on a Saturday. Got all my essentials and flavours.
I did not however order anything nic related. I fully understand the implications for a business that breaks the LD rules. Gov has far bigger businesses by the balls , see SAB for example.
Thank you to all of the vendors that are legally assisting.

With the fully opening of all e-commerce platforms as from today (except alcohol and cigarettes), do we know if vape shops will be allowed to sell again?
Or do all vape products currently fall under cigarettes / tobacco?
