Just a thought here, but isn't this making us look like stupid stereotypical stoner's.
Yes I get it, but not thinking others will not just see you as stupid.
I'd wear it among other weed lovers, but not my weekly town council meetings.

I think this more for fun Hippy, probably not so good for town council meetings lol.

Actually it means I can't bring the prices down even lower for out of town/province purchases. I have to jack up the price to compensate for any warranty returns I might have to do.

I'm just starting to bring in weed vaporizers into the store and first thing I asked the wholesaler is about the warranty Most of the manufacturers like say Pax ro Arizer deal with the customer after purchase and some of the other ones the wholesaler will actually ship it back to the customer as the wholesalers expense.

This allows me to use the extra profit to give people free shipping across Canada since the vaporizers are small and the biggest one

There is a local shop charging $120 for a vape that goes for $45 on Amazon. Exact same vape. I can't figure out how they justify that. Anyone who is Internet literate would be online comparison shopping. Maybe they are targeting the older, net naive senior ? Just seems wrong to me. And lindo of predatory.

There is some cheap equipment on ebay and I've seen some vaporizers sell pretty close to what my cost is. Not sure how some of those places do it but if you go directly to manufactures and sell by bypassing the wholesalers you could save 30%+ over the competition.

I just did my final pricing and I can do free shipping (Canada post standard) to anywhere in Canada. Doing come test shipping calculations from bc to Nova Scotia it'll only be about $22 for shipping so that still leaves me a good profit margin vs what I make on hydro equipment sales.

Huge difference in price from the original manufacturer to the china knockoff.
Having said that, most of the manufacturers are in China.
ie...I can buy a pax online for around $100...the legit manufacturers model retails for $249 almost everywhere.
You really have to know who you're buying from and what it is.
The knock offs are so close in appearance...
There's a saying that comes to mind....you get what you pay for.

Depending on which design we're going with I may be interested in 1 or 2. I don't recall seeing a price point either.

The sad part is all head shop items and ( I call vapes head shop items ) are marked up HUGE. If they pay $1 for something it will retail for $2.29- $ 2.99
For instance a roller for joint @ wholesale is $1.50.......retail $4.99
Quite lucrative if you have a good location
