I would love to shop in a store, and I did while the one was open. Very nice folks, very helpful. They closed. Another opened but they don’t have anything I need or want. He had one, only one rba the last time I went in. He did have some coils, I forgot which kind, I didn’t really need them but bought them anyway.
So online it is.
If anyone from this thread, or from ECF, probably, was in charge of ordering stock for a shop, I’d love to shop there!
Retail vape shops very rare and expensive here. Online our best option
I am not really comfortable purchasing Vape at the Vape shop.I think I am too concern about wasting money,I mean the juices and mod in my local vape shop is 20-30% more expensive then purchasing online...tbh,I would love to friend a fellow vaper in my area,I don’t have any vape mate.My wife uses cigarette occasionally
Yeah, I sat down to watch it on Sunday. It is intense. Unfortunately, I put my feet up in the recliner and as per usual, was fast asleep after about 30 minutes. I will probably tune in again sometime.
I buy almost nothing in store. The couple of stores in my hood are so outrageously overpriced. They are geared to the poor souls that do not know any better and walk in and are subject to being sold a SMOK product at double the price.
I have a great relationship with my local vape shop owner. We have become very good friends, and socialize outside the store also. He gives me his price for some things, and steep discounts for others. Still, I find some great deals on-line that I just can't pass up, or on things he doesn't carry. I prefer to support local business when possible, but it's a mixed bag for me.
I understand that, but I also know there’s a lot of overhead for a B&M that doesn’t apply to a website.
Where I live, the vast majority of people will not shop online for anything. The just don’t trust the internet. It’s not that they don’t know it can be done, it’s that they think they’re going to have their identity stolen, as if that’s the only way it can happen.
Speaking of all this, I need to vent. I went to the PO to pick up my Dot yesterday and - I used to get along fine with the woman who works there - she read me the riot act again!
For ordering stuff online. For being out on public. I said, I came to get my mail, otherwise haven’t left the house. Most of my stuff comes right to my house. So she gave me what for about buying from Amazon. Supporting a billionaire, who treats his employees horribly, and killing local businesses...
And I don’t disagree with any of that, but, I can’t get my dog food local. They might have a couple cans in one store, and I have to drive 20 miles east for that, then 35 miles west to check the other store, and 20 miles north to a third store- how many people will I come in contact with like that? It’s absurd to think that’s a better idea, especially now.
If I don’t have to be in public, I’m not going. I’m sick of the judgement.
Some of you have to go out. You should not have to be exposed to me if I can avoid you.
We are, for the most part, all doing the best we can. All of our circumstances are not the same, we have to do what works, what makes the most sense.
those with the dotaio...how are the 0.7 coils? the 0.3 are sold out at all of my usual haunts. ta.
I had my shiniest moment in a while yesterday. While browsing Craigslist for sale I saw a home theater system, listed for $0. It wasn't in the free section so I expected the price was in the body of the ad. I was wrong - a guy two miles away had stored this system for a few years after he upgraded and with a baby on the way, wanted that space back. He told me he'd be wearing gloves when he loaded it. The "seller" met me in a church parking lot halfway between us, backed his pickup up to my minivan and loaded it up. He wouldn't let me help load it and apologized that the bottoms of the speakers were dusty.
So far I've unwrapped a Yamaha HTR5650 receiver, two Polk Audio RT1000i tower speakers and a ton of monster cable. There are two more boxes with additional speakers but I'm letting it all sit in the van for a day or so before unboxing, just in case.
With my wife watching tons of movies to decompress after working at the hospital, that flat screen is going to be sounding much better soon!

She criticizes you for shopping on-line, and for being out? WTH does she expect? Stuff doesn't just magically appear in our houses for Pete's sake. I'm sorry that you have to take that kind of behavior from ignorant people Delores. We are all doing the best that we can, considering the circumstances. Some people will never be happy, no matter what. On the other hand, we don't know what is going on in other peoples lives either. I'm sure that the postal people are pretty stressed out right now, and you were probably just someone that was convenient for her to vent on. I am pretty sure that it's going to get worse before it gets better. I am glad that we have each other here for support. I know my social life is not the norm I am used to, and appreciate this community very much. I don't know what I would do if it weren't for you all.
I am available for chat any time.
I think people are just whacked out stressed out right now. I had to go out again too. Out of distilled water for my CPAP and, most importantly spinach for smoothies. I am ultra careful, gloves, mask, hand sanitizer hanging on purse, peel the gloves and dispose outside of store, hand sanitize before getting in car. The you get home with your bags in your car and then what? Take them in, without gloves on? Put more gloves on?
It is a crazy world right now. The most disturbing thing is the people out and about, with kids, no wiping down of the cart, no facemask. I stay as far from these people as I can
I guess I feel it is the duty of new peeps to feed this. I am not sure what I feel. Honestly I feel I am not paying a 50-75% (and sometimes even 100%) mark up on things.

I haven’t yet, but as I was going to fire up the SE today, I popped the.7 in it. I’ll get back to you about it.
i sold some liquid (remotely!) so went ahead and ordered the 0.7s so hope you, and i, like them. also picked up an airflow adjuster for the north bridge which you may, or may not, be interested in.
So far, it’s not bad. I don’t think it’s got quite the air or the flavor of the .3 but I could cope if I had to. There’s not as big a difference as I thought there would be.
