Here in town, we have a store that sells mostly magazines and books, but they are also the only place around to buy cigarettes you wouldn't normally find at a grocery store. I asked them if they'd heard of the e-cigs. One guy, standing off to the side said, "Yeah...those $120. cigs??" I told him that price was way too high, and they could be bought for $25-$30...if you knew where to buy. They seemed interested in learning more, so I gave them the URL for here. I hope they get more info here and seriously consider selling something.
I work at one of the largest emploers in this area....1750 employees (+/-). There are at least 5 new vapers that I know of...and many others, apparently. If they find out which is most popular in the area, they could make a killing selling parts, etc.
Here's hoping they try it out!

Great way to introduce the product:

MadVapes LLC

Buy one and open it up in front of the grocer. The one I opened the battery was charged but you might want to do that first.

I asked if this local cigar shop would sell them, but they didn't seem to interested. Being sold at a vendor, the prices would still goup, but thats on the company in question to decide. A started pack could easily sell for $10-$20 more and still be decently priced, and the vendor would make a good profit too.

I think once they are more available to the public, they will sell like hot cakes, and the FDA will be unable to stop us. MUUHHAHAHAHA(vapor comming out my mouth making my laugh more evil)HAHAHAHA

I know from surfing that if you want like 100 smoore model kits the kits come to like 11 dollars then secondary retailers can mark them up to like 60-70 bucks (or less if they'd like). then profit$$$. its just the initial investment thats a big deal. can I sell 100 ecigs? also FDA and Customs might swipe your giant order before you ever get started so theirs that.
