| - Went in to look at their rebuildable atomizers and mech mods. The only mech mod they had at the store was one that an employee was using, he said he had been using it for a couple of days.
I bought the mech mod and RDA. The mech mod 510 threads and RDA base 510 threads were both cross-threaded and stripped out. The center post of the RDA had stripped out threads as well.
I had to have them re-order a new mech mod so I could have one that was New-In-Box and didn't have wrecked threads by their employee.
Went back to get a new base for the RDA, the next one was completely missing the center post screw.
Went back and got new screw for the center post. Went home and built some coils only to find out that they had drilled out the coil holes way too large and the center post screw wouldn't tighten down on the coil leads. I had to take a dremmel tool to the center post to grind it down so the screw would go in far enough to trap the coil leads.
All of the RDA's they had in stock had been "modified" to the point of being unusable, and they all had shitty coil builds with wicks and juice on them already, because the employees had apparently mutilated and personally used ALL of them, then they put them back on the shelf and sell them to customers.
Aside from selling customers defective products, this is a health / sanitary issue.
Also their juices are mediocre at best.
As for pricing, I found that the mech mod they sold me for $90 can be had for $50 online. I don't mind paying 10, 15, or even 20 percent more at a brick & mortar shop, I understand the need to charge more, but 80% more is just plain price gouging.
Evapeology is a ripoff and they have extremely shoddy business practices.
EDIT: Forgot to add. The first time I went in there the owner put my single coil mini protank on a vv/vw mod at 9.5 watts to show me how awesome it was and burnt the shit out of my wick instantly.
They also sold me a 2-bay battery charger that was being used by the store, only 1 bay works. Another employee-destroyed item sold to customers.
