Just got home from Day#1 at Vapecan Toronto 2013.
If you are thinking of going, GO. You will like it.
Here is my honest take on the experience I had:
CONS:
- was a little hot in the room (thats HolidayInns fault though. lol)
- seems that many of the vendors were short stocked or didnt have this or that. I must have heard "we do carry those but, you will have to order it online, we didnt bring them" a Thousand times. I understand that it's hard to carry all the stuff, limited room etc But only a few vendors seemed fully prepared.
- a couple vendors had some pretty bad CustomerService issues. I wont name names but there were a few that need to change their ways. No wonder there wasnt anyone hanging around their booth.
- Although most vendors had deals (some better than others), there were a few that didnt reduce their prices or want to budge in price.
PROS:
- lots of great and friendly people
- LOTS of AMAZING DEALS
- lots of vendors giveaways, juice sample giveaways
- lots of prizes being given out by the organizers
- some vendors went all out to make sure their customers are taken care of
- got to sample a ton of Amazing juices
IMO a few of the vendors seemed to shine more than others. This is based on good deals, customer service and how professional they were. They would be (in no particular order):
- HappyVaper (these guys rock! they know how to treat their customers, great deals, great service. My new B&M goto for sure)
- Canvape (hello deals, you thought their online stuff was cheap. also giving out 10ml bottles of juice for free.)
- JiffyNic.com (great guy, great juice, lots of samples - I will be doing biz with them again very soon)
- Vapemail (great to deal with, very helpful, had great deals, very professional)
Now just because I didnt mention anyone it doesnt mean they were bad or anything. The above were just my personal favorites.
At the end of the day I had a great time and was very glad I went. Because of the great deals and giveaways, I spent way less than I planned and left with more. You cant beat that!
Well worth the trip if you were debating on going. Im sure that Saturday (Day 2) will be even better!!!!
WHAT WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE GUYS? Did you have fun? Get some good deals? Try some crazy juices?

.. I was happy to meet Vapemail Mike, He was really great and fixed a wrong order for me a couple weeks ago for free which was really cool. Talked to J.R. Custom Turnings, he made some really awesome looking wood mods.
