Friend had a fake cigarette some 25+ years ago and it had orange crumbled foil at the end which looked like it's glowing under light. No batteries.
Yeah, we had one as a prop in the 90s that had orange foil inside and a mesh in front, so when it moved around the fire looked alive.
And you'd load it with flour and blow through it to make a pretty convincing puff of smoke.
Okay. I once had a real e-vape that looks like a real cigarette. Given that the post appears to be something of a product review, I'm mostly inclined to think it's a vape.
Amazon doesn't allow vapes to be sold on their site.
Yeah they do. I bought my fort one on it. They just can't contain nicotine.
I don't see any Amazon logo to confirm nor deny if that's where it came from. I admit though that I don't do any shopping from Amazon, so I dunno.
Guess I might take your word on it, with a grain of salt though. I have no clue if it might have come from eBay or any of the other online companies.. 🤷♂️
It's very much formatted in the style of Amazon reviews
...It is very clearly an Amazon review. eBay reviews don't look anything like that.
I never know from one app to the next, whether it's Apple, Android, Windows, or Linux, or user preferences, what style to expect.
