Vape Shop Waiver

[serenity21899]

I visited one of my local vape shops today to buy some juice. When I got there, I was asked to sign a waiver that basically states that if I am stupid and drink my juice or use my batteries improperly, and I blow off my face, they are not responsible (I am paraphrasing here). Further, they will no longer build any coils for customers that are under 1 ohm.

I thought this was an interesting idea, teaching us to take responsibility and use our stuff properly. I don't know what prompted this (no anti-vaping laws in the town/county the store is in yet), but I do agree with it.

I was just curious what others thought.

Not a bad idea. Esp the sub ohm part.

I've heard of B&M's making people sign waivers. I think -- and I may be wrong -- that MOV down in Cleveland, TN, does that before teaching a rebuildables workshop. And I think maybe AltSmoke does the same... Again, I could be wrong.

And I think it is a great policy to implement.

One of the employees formally worked at Alt Smoke in Columbus, so that would fit.

ETA: And the usual group of 20-somethings were not in the vape lounge building said sub-ohm coils today.

Phil Busardo/TasteYourJuice.com interviewed a shop owner at one of the VaperCons that was doing the same thing. He said it gave his sales staff a bit more time with the customer to explain safe vaping and to help reinforce the importance of safe vaping practices. Great idea!

Well, that is how it should be, I think. The owners of a couple of the newer shops in my area won't even sell rebuildables because they do not know how to rebuild themselves. They do not want to give out wrong information.

I think that this is a great idea. Shops who incorporate this would be safer and hopefully, the new guy who walks in the door will be a little more educated on safety.

B&M's around here don't make you sign anything, but they don't teach new folks dangerous things beyond their experience either.

Youtube makes that null and void though.... can't wait til people start blowing batteries up and burning parts of their body based on a youtube video. Tick, tick, tick... Gotta be cool and blow a cloud, ya know?

lulz

Until there are countless warning stickers on all rebuildable related items and mech mod's, nobody wants to be the liable party. Smart decision for a small business owner.
