This shop is excellent. I purchased my first RBA from them about a year or so ago, and I stopped in…read moreagain yesterday for an Arctic Tank. I ended up getting some awesome juice, and chatting with Chris for a while.
This is on the short list of shops I've been to that manages to do everything right. Most importantly, they are knowledgable about vaping and mods, and therefore can educate a new vaper on safety. That seems like it's a given, but it sure is not at all shops. It's incredibly important, and they can not only provide a basic setup to someone new, but help lead a vaper into more of the hobby aspect, and safely. That's not something that can be said about some of these shops, who just want your money and send people out the door without proper batteries and knowledge. That won't happen here. I consider safety first and foremost the most important judge of a shop, and they knock it out of the park.
Regarding pricing and selection, the shop is small, but has a comfortable area to sit and vape and chat. Don't let the small storefront fool you into thinking they don't have a wide selection of hardware, and juice. They have a ton of premium juice lines, along with their house juice. They carry a good selection of rebuildables, and mods. Mech, and regulated. Most importantly to somebody like myself on a budget, they don't mark prices up immensely, and are close enough to web pricing to support a local business. I always want to give money to local shops, but the markup can make it just not doable for me, not the case here. Example. An authentic Mutation X V3 with the glass cap is $29.99. With shipping, you're not gonna beat that online. I haven't tried the house juice, but it is priced very well, too. The selection of premium juices is truly immense, and they have a nice clearance selection of premium juices at the moment.
Chris and staff are truly a pleasure to chat with, and are very generous in helping out with what you need. I came back today, and wound up getting some more juice. They only had one bottle left of the juice I purchased, at 0 nicotine, and they added nicotine to my mg request, and being the last bottle, threw in the sample bottle as well, which was almost full. This type of service is rare, unexpected, and unnecessary, but they provided it. They have earned a customer in me, and it won't be another year before I stop by. Even just to hang, vape, and talk, I felt welcome and appreciated, and I'm sure that others will get the same treatment.
Thanks so much for your help and kindness, Chris and staff, (I'm terrible with names, and forgot the name of the sweet girl working there today). I'll be seeing you soon, I've got my eye on that glass Mutation.
