Several years ago I went from being a pack a day smoker to vaping and eventually quit all together for almost 2 years. I started smoking again recently back to a pack a day for the past 4 years. I need to save money and work on my health. I found Vape Street online and decided to hit them up right after opening so hopefully it wouldn't be too busy. I had done a bit of studying but told Peter to basically talk to me like a first time vaper. Peter was very well informed, didn't try pushing anything on me and gave me lots of information but didn't try to show off his knowledge with a lot of info that didn't make sense to me. I walked out with something I think I'll be satisfied with and help me save money. I highly recommend this place! Thank you Peter.

My expectations were low from my experiences I've had walking into these kinds of shops when looking for a cigar, but I was pleasantly surprised and happy to see that he has a very nice, and a very decent size and diverse selection of cigars to choose from I must say! They're all priced about what you would expect to pay, but there's even some bargains on some of the cheap handmade cigars as well. It's not a lounge, it's just your basic smoke shop, but if you need some cigars and you're not near a cigar lounge or can't wait to purchase them online, you may want to check this place out if you live in the area.

I called in asking if they had a…read morecertain product in stock, which I have previously purchased before from them. in the past due to its convenience being next to my grocery store. The employee who answered sounded aggravated as soon as he picked up the phone like I was bothering him. I've popped in here a few times in the past for the exact same brand of juice that I was looking for and when I asked if it was in stock, I was told no before I could even finish my sentence in a very dismissive tone. I assume they were just too lazy to get up and check. Overpriced as well. The smoke shop down the road at the intersection on Ball where CVS is is exponentially better in any category. Always kind and will order products for you if they don't have them immediately in stock. Now it makes sense why they have a tiny little shop A grocery shop and they barely show up on maps. Most likely a terrible CRM coming from a business owner myself as I would immediately fire an employee if I heard them speak to a customer like I was spoken to avoid this place like the plague.

Would I by chance be able to come by and exchange the male I have for the female I actually needed? It's still in perfectly unused condition!

I want to start off first with the customer service, it's unbelievably good. The shop has a great vibe to it and it's my number one go to smoke shop when I need something whether it's vape juice, a new glass pipe, lighter, vape pen battery, etc. You name it and they will most likely have it. The price on glass is very reasonable compared to a lot of other shops I've looked around at. The selection of vape juice isn't huge but it's enough considering it's a big variety of different levels on nicotine, size of the bottle, and then flavors range anywhere from candy, dessert, pastry, custard, fruity, and much more. I can't help but sometimes go in just to see what I should get next since he stocks up on new glass biweekly basically! Overall it's my favorite smoke shop to go to on a weekly basis, if I could rate it higher I would give it a 6/5 star rating. read more

Came in for cigarettes and a gift for a friend. The rep behind the counter was very helpful and patient with my frequent stupid questions. It appears to be well stocked with a variety of products. I forgot about the Yelp check in bonus of a free lighter and remembered it as I was heading out. Of course the yelp bonus check in/free lighter expired from taking my time and asking questions, but he still honored. He picked up that my budget is tight, and offered opinions on best pricing for what I was looking for. I appreciated that. Pricing seemed to be competitive and products appeared to be of good quality I would def recommend stopping in and checking out. Nice, friendly, quaint place. read more

yesterday was my second time visiting cigstar, I purchased a new piece. I selected the one i wanted along with a couple other items, when checking out the owner said I should probably get the thicker piece (Quality Glass). It was a little more expensive, but well worth it. I would have broken the other one already.Oh and about the price difference which wasn't a big deal but the owner gave me so many discounts that it more then made up for the additional cost. This place has insanely low prices and very high quality glass. Do yourself a favor Check out CigStar everyone can stand to save some money. Thanks Will be back read more

This shop and the person who helped me are amazing. I smoked cigarettes for over 15 years, and I have recently switched to vapes. And I am happy that I did, because it's cheaper and my lungs no longer sporadically wheeze. However, I don't really know a lot about vapes and I was getting the run-around by other dealers -- that is, until I visited Cig Star. The gentleman who helped me was honest and very helpful, so I finally found a product that worked for me, at a great deal. I even brought in my girlfriend, who received the same level of excellent service. read more
