I am glad, the 2.5 is not being replaced, but I just wish I could order a Mini Dragon from Provape, I don't want to have to get one from ebay, and none of my B&M's will order them. :(

I do understand the logic behind it. If you're Provape and you want to see your products in all the vape stores popping up.........you give them a reason and the Dragon could have done it. The issue is that a lot of the store workers are mech mod/dripping/cloud chasers and I don't think they really saw the value in having and really selling the Provari.

All of my local B&Ms blew me off too. No one knew what I was talking about and wouldn't order even the one I assured them I would buy. I don't know if all the "sold it on e-bay for more money" talk is true but I do know no one locally could be bothered.

So, if Provape is reading this........only two shops in the Baltimore area carry your product...........they both have it in a corner somewhere and don't even acknowledge it's presence.

I did find out one thing in my search, is that Provape is requiring them to order 5 of them at a time, and they said the demand is not that good for them to justify ordering 5.

Didn't know that.........however, any of them telling me that would have been an acceptable answer.

Yeah, that's alot for a small business to have to carry of a high end item for most of them.

Valid but a lot of the stores around me are starting to carry a lot of high end mods and toppers. I saw a Semovar at one and when I asked about it, the clerk basically said.......bleh.

I can confirm that. Brian, the owner of the B&M that ordered mine decided to get one for himself, one of his employees took another one and he will put the other 2 on the shelf for resale. They are all the full size model with red led, I didn't ask if he could order me a mini, so I am not sure if he could've ordered some minis and some full size in the same order . That store does have a pretty noticible sign stating "authorized ProVape retailer" so maybe the local stores that won't order one aren't authorized resellers.

These are the type of stores that are going to fail. You need to cater to everyone. Not just cloud chasers and rebuilders. In fact the vv/vw and ego device users are the ones that are gonna help keep you in business. If you limit your clientele you limit your sales. And, well......

To bad we here on this forum haven't been given the chance to order them as a group buy ?

I'd go in on that. The brick and mortar's here seem to focus on cloud chasers as well. I've actually stopped going to many since they push mechs so hard on me. I'm happy with my Kayfuns on a Provari. I'd spend my money there if they sold me a Dragon Mini. Even the brick and mortar that sold me my pink Provari haven't restocked on Provari's, nor do they advertise the Provari on their site anymore. That last pink Provari was in their display case for quite some time though. I guess they just weren't selling them fast enough?
