Just clicked on ad here at forum.

Do anybody heard about this company - wordupecig?
Worldwide free shipping - looks like Chinese.
Grossly overpriced - does not looks like Chinese...

Never heard of them but they are US based:

7136 Se Osprey St
Hobe Sound, FL 33455
Phone: (772) 932-7152
Web: Wordupecig.com

I have found a bit different address, but still in Florida:

Wordup-ecig Superstore
1531 N. Old Dixie Hwy @ US Hwy 1 Jupiter, FL 33469 & 7136 SE Osprey St. Hobe Sound, FL 33455shop.wordupecig.com/

It looks like some people with money decided to make money on vapers by preparing them to high after-vapocalypse prices.

I just checked their site for prices......wow. They're so overpriced on most things it is almost comical. The shame of it is that for those new to vaping, they may not realize how overpriced they are and start filling their cart.

They actually have their own place here on the forum Wordup Ecig | E-Cigarette Forum

They are a forum supplier, and located in Florida. The prices are high on some things but others are reasonable. Reliable company, though.

UnFlavored Eliquid Nicotine
12mg Unflavored Nicotine Base - ecigExpress
$23.99 vs $3.99, 500% more!!!

I have to highlight that I used only reputable and popular companies for comparison and that I have not found "reasonable" prices on any of popular items.
I strongly believe that forum supplier and good supplier are not synonyms.

P.S. I do not like suppliers that rip off novices.

Florida is a sellers market sadly, i quit going to shops here as almost all are overpriced.

All the time i tell people look online or come to ecf, they seem surprised theres vape shops on the web, it's 2015 and surprises me to no end how disconnected so many people still are, " i dont use the Internet- just that google thing and sometimes facebook".........

I don't regularly shop there, nor have I browsed their website in the last year. But I have gotten juice from them at a very reasonable cost during a sale, it was decent, it shipped quickly. So to me, that's reliable. I didn't say anyone should shop there, and thankfully, people have plenty of options. A lot of vape shops are expensive. It's a free market, and they wouldn't charge it if someone wasn't buying it.

And they do have a sub forum here, go ask them why they charge so much.
