    Default Buying Locally

    I just visited the website and answered the question, "Do you buy locally?" I just wanted to mention that while not being an around the corner store, The Electronic Cigarette Company, has a warehouse in Attica, Michigan. I live in Warren. Once I place my order, usually for a refill of Totally Wicked, it's in my mailbox within 2-3 days. They also has very good prices and a good selection and I don't work, nor do I have an affiliation with them. I'm just a good customer they know by name now.

    Yeah somebody just mentioned them in the last day. They are a bit expensive, but nice having a place near by, I wonder if they accept drop by orders.

    I bought my 510 from them as well as a few bottles of juice. They were fast and accurate.

    I highly doubt they have a storefront - more than likely they are just operating out of a warehouse/commercial space.

    It sure would be nice to have a local place to pick up parts and juice, wouldn't it?

    I'm seriously thinking about busting a move and becomming a dealer. I already have a store but due to the nature of my business I have short hours and a not-very-convenient location. Yeah I know- it's weird lol! I might be able to snag a few sales from exsisting customers but since my biz is very specialized I do not have an endless string of new customer, browsers, or walk-bys to grab.

    I really don't think that Jackson, being the most backwards closed-minded place I've ever been, could or would support a fulltime e-cig operation. Overhead would eat me alive in the first three months. Unbelieveable how high business rentals are around here- it is absolutely ridiculous.

    The easiest way to find out is just PM or e-mail them. Alot of vendors I have found run their business out of their houses. Most of them will meet you somewhere. I have met 4 different vendors this way. I had a thread about it at one time and alot of them said they could meet me locally.

    I spoke with Jennifer , I think her name was on the phone for quite a while. Nice lady. I asked if I placed an order could I just come by and pick it up and she said no. Maybe if they get enough requests they will do this. I wnat to order from them but they are way to pricy for me.

    I honestly don't mind the couple of extra bucks, in exchange for the fast deliverly. Plus, at least I'm supporting a home state business. Between them and GoodProphets I'm pretty satisifed.

    Too pricy (and far away) for me if you can't walk in a door and buy your goods in person, because on top of the prices, then you have to consider shipping. Cignot.com is inexpensive and very good and they are in Chicago, Illinois (or at least my kit shipped from there) and it arrived one day later.

    The whole point of buying locally, for me, is a bricks-and-mortar store that I can get my goods from quickly the same day and not pay for shipping. I'm not bashing the company or anything, I just cannot afford to shop there.
