I wasn't sure where to put this thread so apologies if it should be elsewhere. I'm a very happy bunny this morning having found a real life ecig shop about 10 mins walk from my house! It's called vaparettes and it's postcode is CT6 5LJ. It has all the standard kits and spares, an evod double starter kit price £32.99. A decent range of juices, I bought 3 10ml bottles of Hangsen juice for £10, currently puffing away on vanilla ice cream..luffly! Cute little place, open about 12 weeks, I was served by a nice bloke called Wayne, they're happy to let you try out flavours. There wasn't much on display to make the more professional vapers eyes sparkle but they can order anything you ask for. The elderly gent in front of me staggered out with enough juice to last till next Christmas having sampled all their new stock, which gave me plenty of time to browse the shelves. They don't appear to have a website so they're mainly aimed at local folk. It was quite busy though which is always a good sign for a new shop. I'm just so pleased to have somewhere I can get to in a hurry in a juice crisis without even needing the car!

I've just seen there is now a website under construction, and I've joined the Facebook group, as you say they seem very nice and knowledgable...mind you anyone's knowledgable compared to me lol.

I don't know about knowledgable - I went in there with a couple of my toys like a billet box and a nemesis with a kayfun and they had never seen anything like them They certainly new about the gear they were selling though

When you went in (to the shop)....did you look like your Avatar? If so, I'm surprised they sold you anything with Nicotine in...

I love that Giraffe. Do you know who he/she is? I might get one. He/she could guard my vape box.

Well I'm glad you like your own post wayne69 - because I don't. You are obviously the owner of the shop & therefore a vendor And you obviously haven't read your welcome PM with the link in it to vendor rules. So for the above & pretending to being your own happy clappy customer - it's hello & Goodbye from me.

Sorry about that Chrissie, I told the guy in the shop (Wayne) about the forum and that I was going to mention his shop on here as we like to share decent bricks and mortar places. Which would explain his appearance, shame he didn't read the rules first though...glad you didn't kick me off too, I have nothing to do with the shop apart from what it can sell me, honest!

tmg don't worry, this happens from time to time with over-enthusiastic vendors. It is absolutely no reflection on you. I have passed the forum details on to new vendors but it's up to them to join and behave appropriately. I always tend to look for the good in people so maybe Wayne was just over eager to promote his new business. Either way you have nothing to apologise for and no fear of being banned or suspended. If Chrissie gets her wet fish out though.......
