Is anyone familiar with an online vape shop called VapVerseWorld (supposedly in Miami, Fla.)? Just wondering if they're legitimate or not. I found some older mods and stuff that looks too good to be true.

The SMOK AL85 is a smaller version of its wildly-popular Alien – and much like its older brother, the AL85...

Security wise, there aren't any red flags. However, it's a fairly new domain as it was registered in October of last year. If the deals are too good to be true, I'd probably give them a hard pass.

Thanks... Well, the reason I said the deals are 'too good to be true' is that the Alien is such an old mod. In my searches, I found that it was discontinued twice (with the 2nd name of it as RHA85) and obviously was having a hard time finding it. I was assuming it is old-new stock. Now that I went back just now into the site, all of the prices are slashed DRASTICALLY. One example is the Gpriv3 (I just bought a Gpriv4 recently at a local store for about 70 bucks) is listed for 17.70 (from 59.00).
As you can see, I'm not one for doing the best searches. I'll try and be more careful in the future.
Thanks again for your assistance! It is much appreciated.

I have seen similar sites in Europe where the entire store is running 70% off everything, even high end equipment where the manufacturer has closed its doors last year, one atty brand I love Steampipes closed down at the end of 2025 after having sales on their online store through the fall of 2025. Because of that I think these new stores that are now popping up and have a huge selection are scam shops.

One example in this store is the Lost Vape Thelema DNA 250C which originally cost $85.28, now discounted to $25.58.
Thelema DNA 250C is still being made and sold but priced at $150-200.
My 2 cent, VapVerseWorld is a scam site

Yep, I agree. It amazes me how the site is so detailed and realistic. These people have a lot of time on their hands.

The chipset alone in Thelema DNA 250C cost around 70-80$ in Evolv store, so its easy to see its not for real in this shop

Good call!

Another example, Lost Vape Centaurus DNA250C, is also available at this store in limited Edition, and they stock all the LE editions lol
It's been about 5 years since the LE was made, under 1000 units, so a total of 3000 LE were made., cost well over $200 at the time.
This store's price was $138.73, now discounted to $34.68.

As I read recently, Nigerian Prince found dead with 2000 gold bars in his basement.

I guess it's theoretically possible that this store is legit and we are all going to miss out on these amazing bargains.

Good point. I wish I could find out more information on it.

Some required reading for future orders.

Generally, I do my "review" searches after I do security checks on a site. If they fail the security checks, there's no reason to go any further. Unfortunately, some scammers have clued into this and created sites that pass most security checks with flying colors.

In the case of Vapeverseworld, the security checks I ran against the site didn't raise any red flags. A domain lookup showed it was a fairly new site which, coupled with the ridiculously low prices, does give one pause as to whether it's legit or not. Reviews are mixed, with some showering the company with praise and other condemning them for rotten customer service.

At that point, some might consider 17 bucks for an order a decent "test" to see if the company was, indeed, legitimate. Me? Nope. I'm not going to jump through hoops to use a temporary or one time use card, and I sure as hell wouldn't use one of my primary methods of payment.
