What's up ECF, just want to check in and say hello to the community. Hopefully there are some vapers from SE PA on here who can tell me of local places to purchase vape hardware / e-liquid. I am yet to make it around to the different places on the forum, so I am hoping there is a regional section on here.

Anyways, I have been vaping since mid June and am really enjoying it! My current set up as of now is a blue K101 mod with a smoktech 510 U-DCT 3.5L. I recently replaced the cartomizer on the tank and started having massive leaking issues [4 tanks of liquid in 3 days] from the bottom of the cartomizer. I don't know why but 5 out 5 out of the pack I got leak. So I am switching to a Kanger Mini Protank, which should be here tomorrow hopefully. Read and watched a lot of reviews and I am stoked to use it.

Current e-liquid arsenal includes eliqcube pink starburst, vaping monkey melon yeti, vaping monkey planet of the grapes, pink spot vapors [pink spot, blue spot, and Jamaican Me Crazy]. Pink Spot Vapors suck in my opinion no smoke and terrible flavor.

Anyways guys and gals I just wanted to say hi and happy vaping!

Welcome. Nice to see someone from my neck of the woods. I still hold out hope that one day soon I will actually see someone walking around holding something other than a cigalike. haha. From what I know there is not much in the way of B&Ms around here unfortunately. I do think one recently opened up in the manayunk/roxb area but I haven't been there and can't remember the name. Sorry I couldn't be of more help

Yeah I saw that bud, I actually checked out there website but didn't see anything I really liked. I am trying to pick up more liquids... I only wish there were shops like there are in CA that distribute eliqcube juice. But, it's all good bud just glad to see another vaper from the area. What's you're set up?

But yeah I haven't crossed paths with another vaper using a mod or anything not cig-like. I also get a lot of looks when I smoke my K101 in public but it also sparks a lot of conversation as to what it is.

It kind of sucks sometimes, especially in an "emergency", but it seems like online is the only way to go around here. My current set up is mostly itaste vv 3.0s and evods. That's not anything that big or crazy looking, but it still gets a lot of looks and questions. Most of the time I don't mind though, most people seem open minded and just curious

YO!!
I'm Philly born and raised. Still live here. Traveled much of the U.S. and still think this is the best city.
Here's the link for the place in Manayunk, Electronic Cigarette Store | Ecigs | Electronic Cigarettes and e-juice by e-cigg!. The online store is Ecigg.org if the link doesn't take. Haven't been to the B&M, but they are my HW source for most things. Johnny will take care of you.
BTW, I drive 95 most days and have seen others vapeing away like me.

Hey! I'm in Cherry Hill NJ. My buddy just got a kit from that place in Manayunk. I've seen there's several spots central and north Jersey... Haven't made a pilgrimage though. Next day off I think I'll be road tripping. I do know though that ecigsplus.com is in Jersey, REAL fast shipping! Hope to run into ya!
Hey man! I might be stopping by that shop tomorrow

That's awesome, I haven't seen anyone vaping other than myself
Welcome! I live in Bucks County...

As for B&M's... there is VaporPhoxxe in Hatboro and Liberty Vapor in Phoenixville. If you are on Facebook there is an East Coast Vaper's group you can join.
Hey Buddy! I am actually from Bucks County myself, Doylestown to be exact

I'll have to check out the play in Hatboro as I work in Fort Washington and I'll check out the group too

There is also a place in Bridgeport called something like World's Finest Vape Shop. I've been there and it wasn't a bad experience at all. The prices didn't seem that bad at the time for a B&M.

I stopped by today to check it out. The place was packed and the prices were not bad at all for a B&M. Nice juice selection as well. I'll be going back.

oh you are real close!

I am going to Vaperphoxxe tomorrow and hopefully pick up some liquid. Hope they can help with picking out the right pg/vg ratio for me

You need to specify. Apparently they go all VG unless you tell them. But at least you can sample their flavors. Haven't been there myself yet

I called them today and everything is made to order in house. They can make any ratio 100 VG, 50/50, 70/30. I live like 10-15 mins away, so I figure I'll stop by and try to get a good tasting locally made liquid that produces big clouds haha
