Darknet markets have no issues shipping millions of packages internationally that contain drugs or steroids. Why should this be any different for these vapes?

  • Depends on how happy you are with risking prison

a lot of darknet vendors don't even bother with australia and their insane import controls, at best it's a "no refunds" type of situation
