⚠️ IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR OUR CUSTOMERS
Beginning tomorrow, October 1, a new Alabama state excise tax takes effect on consumable v***r products. The new tax is $0.10 for every milliliter of product.
We’ve known this change was coming, and V**er Forge 280 has been preparing.
Over the past several months, we have intentionally stocked heavily ahead of the new tax so that we could delay its impact on our customers rather than changing prices immediately on October 1.
Our price adjustments will begin October 15.
That gives our customers two additional weeks to purchase at current pricing and gives everyone some time to prepare for the change.
When our pricing changes, we are not simply passing the entire burden along to you. V**er Forge 280 will absorb a portion of the increased cost while passing along a portion so that we can continue offering the products, selection and service our customers depend on.
One important thing to understand about this new tax is that it is based on milliliters, not ni****ne strength. That means lower-strength bottled e-liquids are taxed at the same 10¢-per-mL rate as higher-strength products.
Changes like this are also why organizations representing independent businesses and adult consumers are so important.
Organizations like the Alabama H**p and V**e Association (AHVA) continue working with lawmakers and regulators to advocate for more reasonable, responsible regulations that recognize the differences between products and the real-world impact these policies can have on Alabama consumers and small businesses.
That work requires support.
If protecting access to alternative ni****ne products and encouraging sensible regulation matters to you, we encourage you to stay informed and support the organizations willing to show up, speak up and continue doing this work.
For now, V**er Forge 280 pricing remains unchanged through October 14. New pricing on affected e-liquid and ni****ne-containing disposable products begins October 15.
We appreciate your continued support as we navigate another major change affecting our industry. We’ll continue doing everything we reasonably can to share the burden, keep our pricing competitive and keep V**er Forge 280 here to serve our customers.
