There's a local vaporizer store that's great, helpful staff and they have always helped me out when parts of my setup have broken and stuff. I want to buy a VV battery - they have a vamo with 2 batteries for 100 and a whole e Vic kit for 140. Is yet decent? I'd rather buy from a store than online as I know how unreliable these things can be in terms of quality control on the manufacturers end, and I know they wouldn't leave me hanging.
Are these prices decent?

I don't mind spending like an extra 20 bucks to have the support of the store for any issues, I just don't want to be spending an outlandish amount or anything.
Hi Fringus. The vamo wyth 2 batteries for 100, Does that include a brand name charger, brand name batteries and other supplies?
And Whats in the "whole eVic kit"? Batteries and brand name charger?
The price for the vamo is a bit high if it only includes cheap batteries, and a no name charger.
I will reserve judgement on the eVic kit, due to the fact we have no idea what else is (or isn't) included......

I just got a Vamo with 4 batteries and a xstar charger for about 85 dollars. I have seen evic kits range around 100 dollars.
I just went off what the guy said on the phone. I believe I saw the set they sell its like a sealed plastic wrapped box, probably comes with battery/charger and maybe a tank or something.
just the evic with no batteries or accessories will run you about $100+ online
altsmoke's starter kit comes with complete evic, 1 battery, usb cable and charger, and manuals for $104 before shipping
the vamo sounds pricey though...we would have to know what specifically comes with it to justify $100

You might get it cheaper if you bargain shop and look for sales. But if you're happy with the store and they give you great CS, it might be worth it for you.
Here is a vamo(tube only) VV650 VAMO V2 (body only) eGo APV - VaporBreak and another eGo APV V2 (VAMU) and another Vamo VV Mod V2 ....
So with a little time shopping, add some brand name batteries, and a good charger, and you Could spend 100, maybe......

I would support your local dealer,IF you know that you are going to get good service, AND comparable product in the end.....
if they are trying to unload a box of crap and charge you a premium just because they can, then I would look elsewhere.
Local dealers do have upfront costs to contend with that an online dealer does not. You will almost certainly find the same product online for less, but good luck trying to walk in the front door of the internet and say"this isn't working correctly"......

i agree with paying $20 on a $100+ purchase to get it local so long as they will back it up and be helpful in the future
need to find out what is exactly in the kits to see if it is worth it

I have been vaping for several months. I started on an ego twist, but originally wanted an evic. I couldn't justify spending that type of money until I was sure vaping was for me. A couple weeks ago I decided to get a vamo, due to all the great reviews I have heard from people. And with the price being roughly 50 dollars for the body alone. I purchased a xtar6 charger and batteries elsewhere. I can say I love how it performs for me and the control I have with it no matter the delivery method.
I did buy an evic at the same time as well, because there was a great deal on them I couldn't pass up and I wanted one originally.
For me, I tend to grab for my vamo first.
If you shop around, you can get an evic for under $90 or leas. Vamo will probably cost you a little under that for the body, charger, batteries. (Don't forget to get extra batteries to use when the others are charging)

The eVic Kit- Mine came with 1 battery and a USB cable and wall adapter for charging.
Bought through MVS (online), think it was like $107.00
Now, I bought a bunch of other stuff..extra battery, separate charger, Vision ET RBA, Kanger T3s, attys....etc.
The price that MVS sells it for is MSRP: Manufactures Suggested Retail Price. This is full markup of his wholesale price...
so, I know B&M stores have high costs (I owned one for seven years), but to sell for higher than MSRP is a rip...and I would not support it.
That is just not a good way to grow your business.
Your B&M must provide something "Value Added" for $140.00- Like several tanks and some good ejuice.
IMHO

You can get a evic colored tube for $79.99 at VaporAlley. Doesn't come with battery or usb cord but those can be purchased separately for much cheaper than 40.
Last time i looked the evics msrp was 140 and that is what i paid at myshop. I know it was more than online but id like to see the shop stay for awhile plus i got 3 months warranty vs 30 day online. My brother got one as well and already used the warranty walked in showed them they handed him a brand new one.

My local guy got me a vamo with 4 batteries a charger, 3 vivi tanks and a 30 ml bottle of juice for 85. The battery and charger are cheap I ended up having to upgrade but still a steal.
