Think it's called free trade, or commercialism, or capitalistic pig conspiracy, or something like that
Tis why it's best to shop around. Even with my Fave Vendor's, if I see something I like, will do a search on it to find it at a better price. Same rba at one place was $49, $39 at another, and $29 where I purchased it. Of course at the higher priced site, shipping would of been free, but wasn't even close to covering the diff. Though I did take the money saved and purchased a couple Ebony Wood drip tips, and still got free shipping
Some items can only be had from one source, especially when it's a new product of authentic origin. And one must pay the asking price or go without.
Often its a matter of what I am all buying. If it's multiple things, sometimes the price difference doesn't matter, and it's more of a convenient thing. It's all part of the game, whether one is buying vape or a new car, it is what it is.
Vape long and Prosper.!!!!
