Honestly, if I had a backer or if I didn't already have a HUGE debt from student loans that I have no choice but to live with until I find some kind of work, I'd walk out the door and into a bank and in a few weeks I would open up a Vape shop here. Hell, I've already got a name picked out for it... :(

I just don't have the means to do it right now, and it makes me regret my degree to be honest. Opening the first and best vape shop in Vegas would easily be the most satisfying thing I'd ever done...and I've picked up strippers before!

I would think anyone here would support a local vaping store if they had a good selection.
But the big roadblock right now is the decision on the legal status.

Who wants to get stuck with an illegal inventory of vaping supplies?

I have many ideas for business opportunities related to electronic cigarettes.
But I'm not going to dive in while the status is up in the air.


And with that being said, it should go without saying...
SIGN THE PETITION LINKED IN MY SIGNATURE!!!

And get everyone who cares about you and your health to sign it too.
Seriously.

Dunno DC, think about it. If you got stuck with such an inventory, can you say vaping supplies for the rest of your natural life? :D

Many of the people who are worried actually DO want a big supply. Of those, if they make it profitable while doing so in the meantime, so much the smarter. If sales get outlawed, only those with thousands of parts will have their own sufficient supply for quite a while. Juice is different tho, it expires quicker than batteries, I think.

After 6 months of feeling like a miracle has been given to me, I just really want to get the word out there. I'm thinking about buying a dozen 901 kits and some juice and renting a table at the flea market on a Saturday and sit there vaping and see what happens. I'm not even looking to make money right now. I just want to get the word out there

I have been blessed in this life. I'm literate, I have my own computer and I have enough money to meet my needs. There are lots of smokers out there who are not as fortunate and we need to figure out how to reach them. IMHO
 
I would never use a brick and mortar store if the cost was higher. The only thing I see a store being good for is new people. Anyone with any kind of vaping experience should already have plenty of stock to last the couple days it takes to receive ordered goods through the mail. I seriously can not see where someone would want to spend more money for the same products they can get cheaper online.

Plus I think the mall kiosk sellers and corner store sellers do way more harm than good trying to get people to switch over. The ridiculous prices they ask for the simplest and crappiest of ecigs tends to make new would be vapers think that all are created equally as crappy.

I've been doing some number crunching to the same effect. There's a good possibility that I'll be unemployed by Christmas - if that happens, I want to start selling. I'm just sick of being the only person in town who has a PV!

Provided it had good products and reasonable prices... absolutely!

It'd be nice to be able to walk in and get a 30ml bottle of my favorite liquid or to pick up a spare parts w/o having to place an internet order and wait for shipping. If there was a nearby store that sold KR8 batts and 808D-510 adapters, I would be there today.
