I really like the people there, and I would agree that with most shops I have been to, you aren't missing much! I couldn't wait to go to some out of state on vacation this year and was very disappointed! I do like being able to taste juice, most shops are way over priced or you go in and see fasttech things for selling at 100% mark up! I drive over an hour to get to smart ash, but love them. I also like Altsmoke and it's about 45 min away! Just neat to be able to talk to vapers for me because I have no one around me that vapes!
Thanks Kelli for the like, I need one more to hit a hundred! Lol guess I am just not as active as everyone else, lol! I ended up with a bottle of my favorite juice, wish I didn't have to pay as much, but tried every strawberry banana I can find and they just don't cut it! Also got a new wrap and a tank today. Loved my purple sparkly one and paid too much for it, but oh well sometimes it's okay, it was only 10 bucks, I bought same one in a variety back on ebay got the whole pack for 6.50 but guess I needed something to heal my broken jealous heart since now I know Joe likes you better! Lol
I like B&M shops and had one open not far from me recently...I was excited to go to it when it opened....my excitement dropped a bit when I saw the prices...I know they cant sell at China prices, and I dont mind paying a bit more to support the local guys, but when it's priced up 3 times more for exactly the same product that I could order from the same place that they likely did, they aren't likely to get a lot of support from me...

I've tried to
I've tried to also support local businesses by at least purchasing e-liquid. But it's basically the same situation regarding price that you've encountered.
There are some really nice vape shops around the world but on the whole I think b&ms will become a thing of the past. I gave some thought about this idea we have about supporting local business, and especially b&ms because they still need to build up customer bases in a young and growing market. But b&ms are not charities. They're a business. And as such try and squeeze every penny they can from their customers. The ones that will continue to do well are those who are knocking out ce4s, egos and juice. I think the vape industry online will kill the rest eventually
