A Question About Spinfuel’s Role
In May 2013, Spinfuel addressed reader confusion about whether the magazine might become a product seller. The answer was clear: Spinfuel’s purpose was publishing, not building a retail brand.
Why the Clarification Mattered
Early vaping media operated close to a fast-growing commercial market. That made editorial boundaries especially important. This note preserved the magazine’s intention to remain focused on reporting, commentary, reviews, and the reader community rather than selling products under its own name.
What Has Been Removed
The original included product-development discussion, descriptions of a possible limited release, sales quantities, packaging ideas, vendor references, and future commercial plans. Those details have been removed. They do not represent a current offering, policy, or recommendation.
Why Preserve It?
The editorial captures an early statement of identity from Spinfuel’s first years: the publication saw its work as journalism and commentary, distinct from the products it covered. That distinction remains part of its history.
