I went to a dying B&M vape shop today. I used to go there a couple of years ago and buy their house juice. A couple of them were really good. I figured since the store was closing, maybe their mixer guy would be nice and clue me in on how they made them.
There was one guy up front when the door bell went off. After chatting a while about the sad state of affairs vaping in general is in, I asked politely. I explained how much I enjoyed the juices and that I would like to make them at home. The dude went in the back to talk to the man in charge.
The young guy came out and said, "He'll do it if the money is right". I thought okay now we're getting somewhere. I was prepared to offer $100 but before I could make my proposal he blurts out, "Yeah, a thousand bucks. That's what they're getting". I thought to myself, GTFO with that. Nobody's interested in your damn house blends but the loyal customers who've tasted them.
I say, "Seriously? It's not like I'm hard up for stuff to vape on. I know the creator took time and effort to make them but jeez..
A thousand dollars.... I told him Iknow, in a couple of months it might be illegal to sell anything vape related that isn't approved by the FDA. I thought maybe the owner or whoever's back there would maybe throw me a bone but I got "Big timed" by a guy who should take what he can.
I know not all shop owners are dick heads but the ones around here sure are. I know of 4 places within an hours drive and they all act high and mighty. The ones in charge do that anyways.
