Maybe I just like to talk a lot, but it seems the discussion in this group is very minimal!

Jex.......I actually started a Michigan vapors thread awhile back...here is the link Michigan E-Smokers Unite! You may want to consider throwing a few invites to some of the Mi posters there to get them in this actual social group...I'm sure most would hook-up here and add value to the group...other than that...you need to post louder..LOL

Actually that thread lead me to over 40 invites, and where many of our current members are from, lol.

I am hoping to see some progress on getting local retailers to stock e-cig items. I called around 25 today from as far as 50 miles away, and not one of them stocked e-cig items!

Jex....You are right on there.....The locals here are oblivious to e-cigs...Most of the smoke shops in my area had never seen one before...other than local online suppliers you will hard pressed to find them in local retail shops!

I did talk to my local Smokers Outlet owner yesterday.
He is interested as he carries the Njoy and the Smokeanywhere brands.
Told him he was missing out due to most who buy these go on to other more powerful units such as the 510 and the 901. I also explained were he is really missing out on sales is accessories and the JUICE! Although he did sell the carts for the mentioned above I told him there is a whole other world when it comes to "vaping". Being that there are 27 stores in Michigan he did show a great interest and asked about wholesale prices. Told him I am not in the wholesale market just a regular consumer. He would need to look into that.
However, whether he will follow through on it is another thing. Will check back later next week.

I went to a local smoke shop yesterday and asked if they had e-cigarette stuff. He told me they didn't, but that Smokers Outlet did and told me where they were (there are several locations).

I called and they said they sold the e-cigarette, but not the liquids. That's disappointing. I'm currently waiting for liquid (don't want to burn out my atty) and its not here yet. I wanted to know there was a brick-and-mortar store that I could walk in and get some juice in case this happens again.

FYI: Pretty new to this. Smoked my pre-filled carts and didn't think to buy juice at the same time.

i see the michigan group is pretty dead here

none of the smoke shops around me have anything to do with e-cigs and the ones i asked in my city dont plan on it ... for vendor reasons or because they say they are going to be banned soon lmao... idiots!!

Same here, except some sell the NJoy at a higher price but no liquids to go with it. Stupid.

I wonder if Michigan wouldn't have as many vapers here because there isn't a smoking ban (like Ohio has) yet. People can still smoke in bars and restaurants, so maybe Michiganians aren't looking for an alternative to smoking like a PV. Just a thought.
