Online versus Vapor shops

[mike's vapor]

After I've found my flavor, is it cheaper and easier just to buy my E Liquid online, and where do most people end up buying most of theirs?

It can be cheaper and it is certainly easier to buy online. It all depends on what you're looking for. I have found that Giant Vapes is a good site for a large variety of juices, prices are close to what you'd see at a vape shop though.

There are a ton of vendors online. A lot of which you won't find in a B&M. A lot of those are considerably cheaper than 'premium' juices and B&M prices. Then, of course, there's always DIY! You can make juice for pennies on the dollar.

Yes, it can be cheaper to buy directly from the e-liquid manufacturer.

However, there's something to be said for supporting your local neighborhood vape shop. Where else can you generally taste flavors for free before buying, see and hold a new mod or tank in your hand before buying, and (hopefully) get one on one expert advice? Sure, you'll pay more at the vape shop, but consider the services it provides.

I DIY, so I don't buy much juice. I agree in general: it's cheaper and easier online, but there is some utility in supporting your local shop.

Thanks for the comments. Supporting my local store is important to me.

Understandable but when you can get 100ml online for the price of 15 to 30ml in most stores, online makes sense. Vaping "grew up" in the internet paradigm so its ideally suited to an online buying method.

My 'big' orders come from online.

My small buys (a few 30ml bottles, maybe) are often made from shops.

I am kinda weird...

I buy expensive OHW Milk Man at a B&M as they are good guys and their price is the same as online . I just like that juice and it gives me a reason to hang out for a bit and check out new stuff.

I also buy from a small juice company in Canada that makes juices I love for about $7US/60ml. Cheap and easy to order online.

Lastly, I am mostly vaping my own DIY. I buy 100% of my DIY supplies online.

So besides that one juice, the odd emergency coil, they have a product I want that is close to online pricing or when my B&M has a good sale, I tend to shop online.

I've only been to one vape shop- didn't really buy anything,just checked it out. I but everything online,but I'm an online shopper. If I could buy everything online and never go to a store, I would. Except shoes of course.

I buy my juice from VapeMoar.com. $20 for 120ml shipped then I cut them 50/50 with unflavored higher nic since their high end is 16mg. Even cut by half the juice is still tasty. I like the Mellow Gold, Berry Bomb, Cool Customer and Cafe Creme. Try samples at $3 for 15ml but any purchase over $5=free shipping so try at least 2. I started with the Super Sampler.. All 10 flavors in 15ml for $20. Only found one that I didn't really care for.

Vape shops (good ones, most i have been to are not) are very good for newbies but once you get to know gear i would bet the overwhelming majority of vapors get their stuff online.

It's typically a hell of a lot more convenient and considerably cheaper as well .

I keep a good relationship with a Vape shop in town for emergencies, I pick up batteries there, they have a good cheap house juice that's good when I'm running low, and they can do some things like widen air holes in attys and sometimes help with builds.

They're not exactly the place I go when I'm looking for a specific mod. However it's great to get in on the community.
