it'll show up on ebay and craigs list soon,,,,,,,,,especially now they know "how much" they got away with.Greed will get em caught..I have no heart for thieves,lowest form.

It might have been helpful if they had mentioned the name of the business. That way, people might know what products (such as liquid) they should try to avoid purchasing on e-Bay and Craig's List. Personally, I don't buy from either of those source, but many people do.

With half a million in product the could start their own online business...

Half a million in a hard to get product is going to be difficult to get rid of without drawing suspicion to yourself. I expect the authorities will be looking for it, but I agree that it would have been good to release product names so everyone could be on the lookout.

In the video it shows a eliquid "Uno Vapor". Says they took 100,000 bottles, some research shows them retailing for $15 a pop.
Also worth noting the business did wholesale, which is why the loss was half a million not 1.5 million...

These thieves unfortunately probably won't be caught selling the product.

Well hopefully if they rebrand they can still be caught.

It would either have to go to shops directly or perhaps CL. If on ebay would have to be thru the back door as they don't permit nic products but you can do 0 nic and then say to see my website for other products. Not sure if that is ebay legal but have seen it done.

Well - It was a warehouse and on the news stations here, throughout the day all of them showed the same security video tape. AND - The reporters were mainly showing the newer Mega Atomizers and a couple of eGos/MODS . . . So whoever stole these items did know what to take . . . Here is another video of the aftermath . . .





What I find very interesting and quite funny too is that a couple of weeks earlier a Gas station storage area a few towns north, had a break in and there a 100 cartons of cigarettes were stolen . . . So - I wonder who will be found first . . . ;)

There's too many outlets, they could even use something like the classifieds here on ECF. And since its not MTO type stuff it's fairly common for some random vendor /individual to sell. It'd be like people selling stolen cigarettes, they very seldom get caught selling them but through the act of stealing them...maybe it's someone preparing for the FDA ban and they have no desire to sell it?! <- I like this theory because we can partially blame the FDA (bad joke). It would be penalizing the legitimate sellers if everyone just stopped buying it. It is a good thing the owner had insurance and I wish them the best.

I guess you are probably correct, still a shame. I think I may have lived in Alaska too long LOL. Juneau is the capitol but only way out is boat or plane. No car chases, they just go to your house and wait for you. Guy robbed a bank and instead of tracking him down, they put a flyer on his favorite bar telling him they knew it was him and to turn himself in. Monday morning he was sitting on the Fed bldg steps waiting for them to come to work.
