I'll probably be carrying my Radius by the charging cable :blink:

Given your proneness to dropping things, that may not be a bad thing at all! ;) Just tie the charging cable to something and voila, your drops may not be very harmful!

That's kinda where we differ a lil...

I like the recordable chain of physical touch.


ProVape touch's it, then ships it to me. I open the box, and I touch it.

And no, it has nothing to do with germs either...

It's all about, Machine Soul!!!

Definitely, but I too give SR large points for loyalty. I can find no fault there. No I can't!

Paying sales tax is a small price to pay to support a local business. Yes it is! Plus it's just good for the local economy. The employees there, pay rent/mortgages, buy food at grocery stores/restaurants, pay taxes etc. We need people to have jobs to go to. Yes we do!

It actually frightens me that the day may come when we can't buy much of anything in a local brick and mortar store.

If a local B&M would have competitive prices I would shop at them but most of the time the mark up is two high and can get for much cheaper online I live in VT so I have to pay sale tax on online orders anyhow

My Vape Shop sells Provari products for the exact same price they are sold for directly from Provape. The Radius is going to be $199.99 from my local shop, just as it will be directly from ProVape.

The day is coming when all online purchases will be taxed in the US in all states. It's just a matter of time before it's the law of the land.

I had to look it up, and sure enough:

"Do I have to pay sales tax?"
"You only have to pay sales tax if you are located in Washington State."

I don't have a local B&M. Sure, there are several shops around, but I don't visit very often. I stock up on juice at the vape shows, and through email alerts about flash sales, etc. I got tired of visiting every shop within a reasonable distance when I wanted to buy some hardware (new atty, charger, whatever) only to find none had what I was looking for and I wasted a valuable afternoon.

I used to send people to various shops near where I worked, or escort them to the shop, but my company keeps restructuring and we've moved 3x in the last 2 years, so I haven't even bothered going to a shop near my latest location. Online is just so much more convenient - you know what's available, who has it, what the price is, and don't waste gas and time in the process. I know B&M's are important for the new vaper, and I'll still send people to them, but I'm not a new vaper anymore.

Considering I live in California, and they just wasted $75 million of our tax money on an anti-vaping campaign, I'll try to avoid sending the state as much money as possible, and feel good about that.

Another reason I want to support my loval Vape Shop is they made the decision to stop selling clones of any kind. They had a sale for 4th of July and blew clones out the door. They're an authentic, or they won't sell it shop now and I applaud them for that! Yes I do!

Your shop is a rare breed. It's hard to find authentic gear around here, and impossible to find an authentic-only shop.
