Selling Custom Cartomizers

[Lightgeoduck]

a regular address label... don't remember the exact size since I don't do it anymore but I used a DYMO

here is an example vid of a contest video I did for V4L a little time back

might give you ideas for personalized cartos



EDIT: I am not supporting nor bashing v4L there are more than one cartomizer resellers that carry excellent products and I utilize them as well cigeasy/mist-stix/HC/HG and have always been satisfied with their products

I still think his biggest issue is price. I use V4L carts, too. They are the best, to me. He ( Steve) may not have a separate factory making his stuff, but he is BIG into quality control and has a guy in China right now. His prices are reasonable and he has sales a lot, which is when I buy. Whoever said we are mostly frugal hit the nail on the head. There is NO way I would pay $15 for 5 carts. Period. But, I would also advise you to do plenty of research and don't give up. It is admirable to want your own business.

Ive spoken to these people many times on the V4L forum and feel comfortable enough to say what I choose.Im very sorry if your offended,but that doesnt change my opinions or my right to voice them.This is how those threads start,By bashing people for the company they choose.Be happy and use whatever you choose. Just to add,Nhaler,Miststix and bear juice were also mentioned.

I haven't noticed anyone else mention something that is ultimately pretty important. What roxcis sound like he plans to do is reinvent the wheel, even f it's a better wheel. I think there is a good reason why the finished cartos come from China, it's the labor.

If roxcis plans on doing what he is considering it will be VERY labor intensive. Forget about the custom case and stuff - he might end up making $1-$2 an hour gross profit until he had the money to buy automated equipment. Either that, or the cost of the filled cartos would be prohibitively high to make any money. If labor is not an issue and there is little value in his time then go for it.

I'd try it at a reasonable cost.

This is what you said

I dont think your going to produce better quality than V4L,and you want to charge more $$??

there were only 2 responses to that comment

I think you are missing the point keyz I missed the other post

NOONE is saying you can't have your opinion on where you can get great stuff and NO this isn't how THOSE threads starts.... The point is the OP asked
a question.... and THOUGH you have the right to an opinion... your comment (see first quote) was just a little presumptuous thats all that was pointed out.
This thread had NOTHING to do with FAN wars and I don't see how it could turn into that. As far as the other suppliers being mentioned... I know I meantioned it only to so that my post was meant as an unbias comment in response the the OPS attempt to start a biz


So ending this discussion with... I hope you can put your guard down for a moment to see that this thread isn't about you.....


Good Day... and hopefully this gets back to topic and doesn't derail because of me.... but i think it might be alright now since I don't see this thread going any farther that it already has...


EDIT: Sorry I did not see the post that caused keyz to respond that way...must have over looked I appologize and will make a new post for the correction

Good Day Duck

I feel bad for seeming discouraging, man. I don't mean to come off as negative, I'm just trying to be realistic.

So here's a thread where Drew at nHaler is talking about plans to fill Greencig cartos with his US mixed juice. Maybe the feedback you read there could be applied to what you're considering.

Aside from being too frugal to spend that kind of money on cartos I have to say that I'd wouldn't buy from someone who is less than a month into vaping. Have you even mixed your own e-juices yet to see if you have a talent for it?

I do wish you success but experience is pretty darn helpful when trying to provide a quality product.

 

[keyzygirl]

Okay,Okay,just picturing Roxics in the garage mixing it up,Im sorry,bad to assume things,If you feel you can do it,Do it!! I run a jewelry bus from home and people thought I couldnt do it!!Think,move,do!!!Go for it!!

This is where I said I was wrong and said I was sorry, I didnt think I had to defend myself to Thystean.Sorry again.I guess I dont get it. Im done,Back to the thread!!!

 

[olderthandirt]

Just a thought on your packaging.

Think recycled.
Don't know 'bout the cost difference but it would be a plus for marketing. Extra, excessive, throw away plastic packaging is a real consideration for me in purchase decisions.

Good luck!

Thanks for the complement, but can you please edit your post just a tid bit... There is a bit that is uncalled for and unrelated to the OP

This is where I said I was wrong and said I was sorry, I didnt think I had to defend myself to Thystean.Sorry again.I guess I dont get it. Im done,Back to the thread!!!

I swear that most of the vapers that I know in Buffalo pay $20 / 5 cartridges (100% made in China with no special touches) AT THE MALL and LOVE IT.

I'm heading up to Buffalo for XMas week.
I'm concerned about getting juice on the airplane with the security crap.

Do u know of any place that would carry juice near Niagara Falls (or Buffalo) just in case they take mine at secuity?

thanks,

Roxis, I think you should pursue your vision. We've all heard the stories of small businessmen who encountered much discouragement only to eventually get to the point where they we able to tell the world 'I told you so'.
With that said I think you've really got to give a lot of thought about your company's nitch. Looking at your competition the answer to that isn't an obvious one. I've been vaping about 8 months now and I've narrowed my vendors of choice down to a handfull because of their Cost, Quality, Consistency or Uniqueness. If you could provide a product or service that hits the mark on all four then you'll really be on to something.
Best of luck to you!

Getting juice on an airplane is no problem at all. I usually have mine in my checked bag, but you can carry it on as long as you abide by their 3-1-1 rule.
