I live in a very small town and I know 10 people personally that vape. There are about 20 more that I don't know but I know they too are vapers. It all got started because someone opened a small vape shop and everyone started to hear about it. News travels fast in small towns. Over the last few months it seems to be spreading like wildfire. I am now starting to see people in the bigger towns close by.

Actually I completely forgot to mention there is a shop in Richmond, VA called Vapers Lounge where obviously I have seen vapers, though i've only been there a couple times. The family that owns the shop really mix up some amazing eliquids. Their 555 is fricking AMAZING! It's more of a nutty pipe tobacco with the influence definitely on the hazelnut. Yuuummmmm! :thumbs: I've heard people saying they don't like it as much since Will left but you know what it's his own fault. He had an awesome thing going for him and he screwed it up.

    There has been a vape store here in town since 2008, so I see others vaping all the time.

    Sometimes to many :lol:

    The only time I've seen somebody vape in my town was at a concert i went to a couple weeks ago.
    I noticed a few clouds of vapor that did not originate from the fog machines, and wasn't particularly stealthy either.
    It was the most fog-filled room I have ever been in though, I entered the venue 30 minutes before the band was set to start, and the fog was dense, and they kept it that way throughout the duration of the concert.

    I live in a large but very Southern metropolis in northern Florida...so I'm not that surprised that vapers are few and far between here. We're talking a town that is a bit behind the times as far as "trends" are concerned. At least in this part of town! It's really big in terms of land area. I think I've seen one person on this forum from my town....but don't know him or what part of town he lives in. As for seeing people on the street, etc. here....I saw one person outside of a doctor's office several months ago. She was standing off to the side of the office door outside, and I assumed she was smoking. I pulled out my e-cig and grinned at her and remarked that it "is a e-cig" and she said "Me too!" and waved her cigalike at me. That's about it. A couple of times I've seen someone in a car with something that looks suspiciously like a PV...but I'm not positive. At this point the only ones I know for sure here that vape besides that woman in Fleming Island is my husband and me!

    No vape shops anywhere in our area. There is a stand out at a flea market I think...or used to be. But it's a long way from here and we've never been to check it out.

    Do you know the name of the shop? We used to live in Mandarin years ago (about 21 to be exact) but know that area pretty well. What part of Mandarin? North or south?

    So i was a little off. The store is called Vapor Nine. Here's the link.
    E-Cigarette | Buy E-Cigarettes | Buy Electronic Cigarettes - Vapornine.com

    My friend went there but he's deployed for a while longer. That's the B&M store there. EV cigarettes are based in Jax but only have a warehouse not storefront. I can't promise whats in the B&M store but they do have LT's on their website. Hope this helps.

    You won't find vapers,
    They are like **** Dealers. (Not like I know anything about dealing ****s)


    You've obviously never been to Baltimore or DC. A 10 minute walk in certain parts of both those cities will reveal dozens of dealers. :glare:

    But I've yet to see more than a handful of people with e-cigs, and NOBODY with a mod in public out here...

    Other than those that I have converted, and vapers I have seen at meets and brick and mortar stores, I have only seen ONE vaper 'in the wild', as it were. My cousin took me to see Kooza, ( Cirque du Soleil's 'Kooza' is most daring recent circus show in Dallas | Dallas-Fort Worth Arts News and Reviews - Entertainment News for Dallas, Texas - GuideLive - The Dallas Morning News ), and during intermission while waiting in line ot use the facilities, the guy next to me was vaping on what appeared to be an eGo 350mAh batt with a Kanger clearomizer on it. He said that my 1000mAh KGO batt with CE4 was HUGE. :-/
