Savoir-Faire is everywhere!
I was wondering how many of you noticed that Amazon is now selling Electronic Cigaarettes and supplies.

Amazon.com: e cig: Electronics
Yeah, I've seen them. I think there's a thread around here somewhere about it, too, but this forum is pretty fast-moving so I'm sure it got buried.

One of the reason's I brought this up is that Amazon has resisted listing E cigs for a long time. A year ago all you could find on it were accessories like a carrying pouch. If Amazon is selling them it seems that they are becoming more acceptable to the general public. I wonder if PayPal will be next.

I've used Paypal several times to pay for some of my vaping supplies from Wizard Labs and through Ebay for Vapingtown. Money talks!

When it comes to business, money is the bottom line. They aren't going to let a $billion industry pass them by.
The biggest problem I see, however, is with returns of DOA items, which can be quite prevalent with vaping supplies.
Honestly, I haven't had to make many returns of Amazon items, but it really only takes 5 minutes at the computer, and that includes printing out the prepaid shipping label.

    Returns are one of the best things about Amazon. No Supplier Tickets to fill out, no unanswered Supplier emails.

    I bought a couple of ego batteries on amazon about 3 /4 months ago. Within a week or two of that purchase I went back to see what other eCig stuff that vendor had. There was no trace of ego batteries. From any vendor! I haven't look lately but I just figured amazon was not allowing vendors sell eCig stuff. The two ego-ts I have are still going good!

    The problem will be on Amazon's end. I love buying from Amazon and LL Bean because of their easy return policy. They don't want to deal with so many DOA or, "can't figure out how to use it, so it must be broke", items coming back. User error probably accounts for half of vape gear returns. Look at all the threads about ProTank 2s.

    Amazon is a top notch vendor in my book. Been doing business with them for years and belong to their Prime service. I always go there to compare prices and as said here before, they will get the package to you in two days ... free (Prime).
    I haven't seen a much of a listing for ecig items, but I have already ordered my efest batteries from them. If they start selling more in the ecig department, I'm in !
