Vulcan vape is where I bought both of my egos and some of my juices. Nice little store, friendly staff, good selection and decent prices! They even have a couple mods like the evic and vamo. Also, they'll let you taste as many flavors as you want! I had no idea there were stores in Albertville (I live close to there) Huntsville and Florence. I can't wait to visit these and see what's going on!

Its on 431 across from Catfish Cabin here is the address.let me know any questions u have about them.

Vapor Time is open in Mobile and Spanish Fort. Typical B&M pricing with great customer service. I had a slowly dying clearomizer. Dropped in just as the last EVOD in the store was walking out the door. Andrey called the Spanish Fort location and someone from there drove one over. Damage was ~$11.00.

The extra few bucks are worth the convenience and good service. I'll be back again sometime.

If you are wanting cheaper stuff, order online. Smokin vapor is far from a rip off, it's a b&m. I am pretty sure most b&ms are the same way. You must go in expecting higher prices, and better service.

and why is that? - I think most B&M's have done a poor job of sourcing the product, because most online retailers are just B&M's with good pricing, they have rent, telephone, utilities, etc.

look at ElectronicStix for example, they have the same prices online as at their three retail stores, and Utah is a higher cost of living state than Alabama. So therefore, there is no reason an Alabama vape shop couldn't have prices LOWER than typical online prices! :facepalm:

I've been to 3 different B&M's this week and I guess I won't be back unless its an emergency. 2 stores in AL and 1 in TN. I save loads more $$$ online. I won't name names but Kanger Protank @ $24 and EVOD's @ $12 is just too much.

+1 on this! - especially when wholesale of even a lousy 10 pieces of Kanger Protank is friggin $8.50 - that is a nearly 300% markup!! W.T.F?

B&M stores can't compete with online pricing because of the overhead! But you are paying for the retail experience! Getting to play with something before you buy it. Plus it costs B&M stores more to be open. So I don't mind paying a little more for the ability to see and feel the product in my hand!

Electronicsstix can do that because they are huge! You forget that most B&M store in Alabama a small business's with sometimes very little profit! And alot don't like ordering from china so there suppliers are in the states! So they pay a little more to get the stuff faster, because china shipping is horrifically slow, use kanger for example you can place a wholesale order and it my be 2 months before you get it! Most B&M stores don't wanna wait that long!

I have a B&M in Foley Alabama, the reason I started the store is to help people to get started vaping, I try to give people as much good information concerning the products we have and we have a tasting area where customers can try the fluids and find what they like. And the other advantage to a good B & M is the quality service, helping the customer when they run into problems, making exchanges when necessary and providing information as it becomes available. We go as far as delivering product to some of our customers that are in nursing homes and or in the hospital as a courtesy. My wife and I believe in customer service first.

There's a sorta b&m at the QV gas station across from academy sports. Nice guy and good enough prices, I think its called Draggin vapes. He also has a juice bar and is setup for taste testing if ya want. Kinda a booth in the corner but legit equipment. Sorry this is in Auburn, Al. Forgot to mention that. I've heard there is a smoke shop that sells ego's and liquid but haven't found it yet. So, as VRODDER has shown, I've got 5 B&M within 30 mins of me. I couldn't have quit smoking with online only. Hit and mostly miss with flavor online so far.
 
Sorry I should have posted our store name and address as a couple of customers found us through this forum. Our store is TLC Vapes, and we are located in the Foley Indoor Flea Market, we are in the store from Thursday - Monday from 10 - 5. Come and visit us, and enjoy some Vaping and conversation. We love meeting new people who vape and the new to Vaping.
