Working at a B&M, I have discovered that there are more and more coils out of stock from our suppliers. Is anyone else concerned that there will be a shortage of coils due to the manufacturers not working to make them?
I think that shortage is developing quickly and even though Chinese manufacturers are getting production back up, there will be a lag in shipments. The typical backlog of orders during the Chinese holiday plus many days after without staff will slow things down. Depending on the how virus issue plays out the lag could be extended. I don't expect suppliers to be properly restocked until at least the end of March. Just another gut punch to vape shops in the US.

I was wondering the same, but I think it's gonna end soon. I had coil issues with Innokin and they sent me some new Podin coils that I got the other day. I think they're catching up.

This is just based on this one experience, but I feel like if they're able to send me updated new coils, things are still running alright.
