“Attorney General T.J. Donovan announced today that his office has reached a $150,000 settlement with TPB International, LLC, for violations of Vermont’s Delivery Sales Ban and Vermont’s Consumer Protection Act. Under the settlement, TPB International, LLC resolved claims that it sold through its website electronic cigarettes, e-liquids, and other tobacco paraphernalia to individual consumers. As of July 1, 2019, it is illegal to sell electronic cigarettes and related “vaping” products over the internet to individual Vermont consumers. In addition to a payment of $125,000 to the State of Vermont, the Vermont Community Foundation’s Opportunity Fund will receive $25,000 pursuant to the settlement. “Online sales of electronic cigarettes to individual Vermont consumers will not be tolerated,” said Attorney General Donovan.”
