I don't necessarily think you're just trying to "sell something" -- however, it does remain true that if a vaper is dependent on bought coils, they're at the mercy of the market -- exactly the same as when we smoked commercial cigarettes -- and that, I cannot ever like. The vaping market is still very new, and very unsettled, and nobody knows where it may go in the future, since it depends so much on what the empty-headed politicians decide to do about it -- but I just can't like the idea of encouraging people to move from one example of market-bondage to another; it completely flies in the face of what has motivated many, if not most, vapers in the first place -- getting free of cigarettes in every conceivable way.
Depend on this: when once the politicians figure out how best to get their pound of flesh, eventually we will have that bogeyman "Big Vapor" to contend with -- and those who are dependent on bought coils and bought ejuice will be at BV's mercy, just as smokers are now at BT's and BP's mercy. We need a new paradigm, and encouraging people to put themselves into just another form of bondage isn't the way to foster that new paradigm.
It IS possible to sell hazardous items, and not be liable; big box stores do it all the time, with heavy tools, sharp knives, just all kinds of things. It just takes some thinking and planning to protect yourself; the way you're currently protecting yourself is at the expense of all those vapers who need that new paradigm of self-sufficiency.

Well said. If you think about, damn near everything sold could be harmful or fatal with a bit of ingenuity and persistence.
