yep and quite surprinsgly its good!!!!......i went in and the first 3 flavors i tried were outstanding......they mix in your desired nicotine right there on the spot....so far i haven't needed to steep it either........also the vape bar where you can try out flavors use cartos and not those cheap clearomizers........pretty good staff too....they have alot of knowledge on everything from EGOs to MECH MODS and everything in between......

for me i like it because they have alot of rebuildable supplies like ekowool and wire and what not......

come on down

I have made all purchases in b&m stores in the twin cities until today. I just picked up innokin vtr off 101 capes for 65, and that's what the MVP is going for in stores here. I think for hardware I'll stick to the online marketplace and for juices I'll be picking up at b&m.

I have one spot that has taught me a lot about mech mods, rba, batteries, etc. Makes his own juice and can try all the flavors. Invaluable resource to my vapor knowledge to this point.

Online and b&m both have their places in the market no doubt.

We've got B&M's popping up like Starbucks in STL-5 within 5 miles of my house.
Only 1 of them I can I say the ejuice was IMO "ick".
The rest of them have some really great flavors.
My best sampling experiences are at the ones with fewer (20-50 flavors) than the one that has 350+ flavors.
The 350 flavor shop gives you a disposable drip tip to use with their top coil design sample tanks mounted in a "peg board" hung on the wall. They cannot maintain that many samplers so the tanks often are leaky or empty. Switching the drip tips has mixed many of the flavors so I can usually only sample a few before I can't discriminate taste anymore. Flavors have to mixed per my order so they often need to steep for awhile before they're good.
The shops with the smaller selections usually have better sampler setups and have some inventory premade that is essentially ready to vape.
So perhaps smaller IS better.
People have been GREAT at every place I've visited.

I don't know really I do this and pay premium as the one local has a very good juice, but it tastes so much better at home. I don't know if its the device or I'm more relaxed or what, but I notice things don't taste the same for me when at the shop.

you gotta think that stuff is sitting in those cartos or clearos for quite some time probably around a week or so.......and flavors change depending on atty's they are on........sometimes for the better or sometimes for the worse.....LOL
 
Happy Taste testing. I like the Classic Tobacco, Banana Cream & Baja e-liquids from Apollo- which I bought on-line.

I would love to be able to go and taste test in a Brick & Mortar shop though. It seems, we don't have any Vape shops in Melbourne Australia...? One day I'll visit the U.S.A & go straight to a Vape shop- LOL. I read about a Vape Bar in New York- which sounds fun. :blink:

Happy Vaping & Happy New Year. :)

Lots of vendors are opening up where I live it's awesome. However there's only like a kiosk in the shopping mall in the town which sells Ecig Allow you to sample before you buy. The rest of the proper vendors are very stingy which kinda sucks. Maybe eventually they will when they've properly taken off.
