What does your Local Vapor Store Charge for Juice?

My local shop charges 9.00 for 10mil & 14.00. I'm new to vaping (only 3 weeks in) & cig free after 20+years & several failed attempts to quit. I have been buying online & from my local shop. Although the online is cheaper, I find the quality at my local shop to be excellent so I don't mind paying a little more for something I know I love
 
Based on what I have seen and observed typical B&M charge .7 to $1. There are a few reasons of course. They do have the advantage of letting you sample and see what you like. They also often (not always) represent local juice makers.

I have yet to sell a single juice... I am still in Beta testing on about 8 flavors, because I won't sell anything unless I know people will like it and not just me. The initial investment on my part is well over $1000. I have used up close to 80 testing bottles already and have an order for another 100. When I sell locally I will include enough of a margin so I can recoup some of my losses. Were I to start selling online then the cost takes out the middle man and makes it cheaper.

I have bought a 50ml of juice for $5.64 so I understand cheap. Don't complain about local prices though... just act. If you think their juice is not worth what they are asking then don't buy it.

Here is a small portion of my investment so far...

I am in the KC area as well. Which of the local stores do you like? I have only been to the one out in Blue Springs, and wasn't really looking forward to the 100 mile round trip trek around the city to check out all the others.
Thanks for your reply!

Best place in south florida Is BocaVapes in Boca Raton Florida - 4.40$ per 10 ml, And buy 4 get one free all the time. You can preorder a 30ml custom for 9.50$ and its made to your specification nic level and such. They are reasonably priced for any B&M store. The others in Broward county florida charge anywhere from 6$-11$ a 10 ml bottle and its mostly from japan or china. Bocavapes makes theirs in house and its made well, My FAV is Honey tobacco!

My local shop charges $7.99 for a 10ml of juice, but you can hang out and vape for however long you like. They have all of their e-juices on the wall and encourage people to try them. Prices aren't ridiculous, you most certainly try before you buy, and don't have to wait for shipping. They also carry atomizers, lanyards, spare parts, and knowledge.

I guess I love my local shop even more than I thought I did! $10.99 for 30ml, nic level to order and they give me extra flavor shots on the ones I want them in for free. Gonna have to hug everybody in there next time I visit. Get my ADVs there, too, so I have no reason to complain. They let you taste/sample whatever you want to at the juice bar before you buy as well. Wonderful people there and are always so nice!

Here in Italy they are all crazy, I don´t even bother checking prices anymore.
Last thing I know from about half a year ago was 13€ for 20ml, at 1€ = $1.30 that´s $8.45 for 10ml.
They all argue with the need for quality but then most shops sell chinese 99 cent liquids for these outrageous prices.
They refill them in bottles with italian labels, claiming that makes them "Made in Italy" and that would be proof for good quality.

I´ve given up on them, I mix liquids myself from purest possible ingredients 100% "Made in Germany", I pay $0.20 for 10ml that way, no shop will ever come remotely close to that, no need to check their prices.

In Croatia it is 28 Kunas for 12ml. Time to swim across...

$6 for 10ml $16 for 30. You can also request 100% VG and they mix it right there for the same price. They also have come up with some of their own flavors. When Boba's bounty was not available they made some that was ungodly close. Still sold it for the same price. Everything there is about the same price as online. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Where in Tennessee?
