Vaporized opening in Union St

[Deleted]

Opposite Jamie's Italian - Nice bit of quality competition for Cameron

Don't know when exactly but if it's anything like their Newcastle store I shall be partaking of the use of their sofa and have split allegiances

But this is very good because one sign of life being a little bit crazy is when Inverness has more vape stores than Aberdeen!!!! (including vaporized in Church St)

So yeah? If Vaporized can keep a good quality range, good customer service and knowledgeable staff with a nice shop environment as currently characterises their shops sure they will do well - even if they are the wrong end of Union st - the money is the other end!

The wrong end Of Union street indeed.
The only good thing, for them, is cheaper rent. Makes me think they'll buy them cheap and stack them high.

Passed it tonight in the car @johanino, looks like it's already open.

Vapourized are expanding quite aggressively, i have it on good authority that they are opening a store in Penzance, almost the complete opposite end of the country.

They have one in kilmarnock wasnt impressed more interested in pushing their overpriced cheap juice.

A lot are franchised shops with vaporized, so kind of pot luck with them.

There is a Vapourized in my nearest town. Only been in it once when it first opened. Same as @tmfkatubthumper - not very impressed.

Vaporized have a store in Hamilton, visited once but not at all impressed. I haven't visited the ones in Glasgow, so can't comment.

Back in the day the one in leith walk looked like a man cave but was good for protank 2 coils for my davide when on a short break

I must visit and review at some point - think Cameron is safe for now though judging by you guys

A B&M not too far from me (Cornwall not Plymouth, not a chain) tried to charge me that much about a year ago. I politely declined.

It makes me feel sorry for those unable or unwilling to buy online and anyone who knows no better.

Yes that's quite right, Vaping Agency in Falmouth were going for that lease but got cut out by vapourized. Bigger outfit, more clout and deeper pockets.. I NEVER use a vapourized branch, the so called "service" I received from the Camboune branch was a joke. Because I went in with a sub tank and not a dripper, I'm LAME!

Bloody vaping snobs !

Oh and the best one... Charge new vapers 50p using their OWN JUICE to fill there tank, disgusting ! . Unscrew, refil 50 pence !

This is true @tedster but tbh i've never seen any of the guys that work in there with a dripper, normally the newest tank that they have in stock.  Personally i've never had a problem with them but then again i suspect that has something to do with the amount of money i spend in there.  I have heard others say the same as you though and it's the wrong attitude if they want to expand, everyone that comes through the door is paying their wages and should expect decent customer service.  Companies that forget this tend to disappear fairly quickly.

Okay, we Forum Members know that (some) of these are overcharging etc etc,
but most newbies to the vaping fraternity are coming in through these shops and they are not aware of Forums like AAE-C where they can find out where to buy good gear much cheaper.

3 of my neighbours are now Vapers and although I have told them about AAE-C, as far as I am aware, they are still travelling the 40 odd miles to Glasgow just to buy their Vaping needs from a B&M Shop. A shop by the way that gave them pretty duff advice originally and has tied them in to buy much more expensive gear than they needed.

However, I can take the horse to water, but I canny make it drink it.

lobeydosser though I personally got excellent support from vaporized in Newcastle in the summer and those boys knew their stuff and didn't rip off newbies (saw the builders opposite my hostel go in there for beginner kit the day I left)

Juice is always a way to make money and keeps these firms in business - thus spreading the word about vaping and saving lives! You can't knock everything....
