Went to my local headshop recently. They sell a lot of different things... wraps, pipes, hookahs, etc... and also basic vapes. No mods, nothing fancy. That's where I bought mine and my boyfriend's eGo's since I was able to talk him down to a solid price on them. (This is where misogyny wins, but I digress.)
When I only have cash on me and I'm desperately low on juice i go back there although I regret it since their juices are limited: (knockoff?) Liqua's, Tsunami, V-Smoke, and Apollo.
God, the first time I went in the guy that helped me pick a juice to go with my vapes was so freaking clueless. Thank god I'd done research before buying juice, otherwise I would have ended up with a 24mg liquid. NO. I'M A 6MG PERSON, OKAY. Literally all he knew about was what flavors he had and that they were $15. For 10-15mL bottles. Like I said, if I'm absolutely desperate I'll get their expensive juices. You may laugh at my perception of expensive, but if you're a college student like me, you see how I can't afford a single bottle of $15 juice when I can get better deals elsewhere.
Now, I went in a couple of weeks ago during one of my dry spells; all I had left was my 0mg MBV liquids and I needed a kick. I felt so freaking bad because while the cashier was helping me check out, these two guys, really nice, came in and were really curious and asked him about the vapes in stock. Literally, the conversation went like this:
"So, what can you tell me about these things here?" (peering into the glass that held all the e-cigs)
"All I can tell you is the price. Couldn't tell you much more."
...I proceeded to meet those nice guys in the parking lot after I paid and give them a brief rundown on how they work.
It just annoyed me that someone who sells the product can't tell a customer how it even freaking works. Luckily I'm very open to learning more about vaping and I've found other shops that have knowledgable employees.
Anyone else come across something like this? A vendor that has no idea what they're talking about? Sad life. Don't sell it if you're clueless... easily goes for food, clothing, or other vendors as well.
