Ooze vape

I bought a ooze vape from there with a year warranty. The ooze vape stopped working after six months and now no one will honor the warranty. I will not be shopping at smoky Shan's again!

Went in to buy some e juice. The lady at the counter was really nice. However I vapes on one of the juices and tasted a weird aftertaste. I looked on the bottom and it was EXPIRED. Seriously?! That's terrible. If you value your business value keeping up with your inventory.

Smokey shays carries the brands of American Spirits that you never find anywhere else!

Great vape shop! Clean & they have a HUGE selection! Justin who helped me out tonight was super…read moreknowledgeable & very welcoming! He knew his stuff! I picked up some D8 but I also picked up some THC-O. Really interesting! I'm hoping they get THCV soon since it's next to my nail shop. He did mention their Winston store (off Reynolda has THC-V) if you need some vapes or other goodies, check them out!

Just a few months ago I reviewed this location, very impressed with the service I got during a…read morevisit. I retract that review. I went in looking for new vape equipment and I feel like they showed their true colors as far the ethics behind this company are concerned. I bought a new vape very different from the ones I usually get. When I got home and tried to remove the top, which is where the coil is and you fill the solution in this model, I couldn't budge it. I had bought a box of replacement tops so I tried one of those....nothing. I did this with 3 tops before I finally went to my neighbor, a big man, that had to finally get his pocket knife out to accomplish this feat. I have bad arthritis in my right hand so I knew this wasn't the one for me. I brought it back and explained my situation asking if I could exchange it and pay more for another model. After a lot of back and forth he asked for my receipt, I told him when the clerk asked if I had wanted a receipt I told her to save the paper. I suggested looking at the computer under my phone number, he had an excuse for that. Finally the clerk that waited on me walked in and I asked if she remembered selling it to me the day before, she said yes. He said I still needed the receipt......this is the point that I knew I was dealing with a shady company! What would me not having a little piece of paper showing I had bought it make a difference when the person that sold it to me just acknowledged my purchase? Then all 3 employees there began pointing to the signs stating "All Purchases Are Final", I don't think me having my receipt would have even sufficed. Aren't there circumstances under which a good company should make exceptions? I never asked for a refund, all I wanted was to pay more and get a vape that I wouldn't have so much trouble with. I'm not sure if the owner of this small chain drills NO EXCHANGES and NO RETURNS in to his employees heads so much that they're petrified to break the rule or what but I viewed it as just ridiculous. I now consider this one of the most ethical businesses I've ever dealt with.

This is a bit of a misnomer, because although they have some pipes and tobacco, I didn't see any…read morebeer. This seems to me primarily a cigar store, and it's a good one. The humidor is well stocked with many lines from a few brands, rather than stocking a few lines from a bunch of brands. I like this approach. They have an extensive selection of Fuentes and Padrons, and feature Drew Estate in a smaller humidor in the main room. If I had more time I would have enjoyed having them walk me through some of the brands I did not recognize. I was also impressed by the low pressure sales strategy. I went in looking for a butane insert for my Zippo lighter and the guy (regret not getting his name) said they didn't carry them because they could not compete with Amazon pricing. He then walked me through their selection of butane lighters, from $8 disposables up to $100 Xicars (we didn't look at the Duponts b/c not in my price range). I ended up buying a $60 Xicar and can of butane and left very happy. It's not the biggest store, but what they carry is smartly curated. There are seats and ashtrays on the front porch of the house for smoking, and I think you can also smoke inside as I spied a lounge in the back. I n addition to the name, the location is a bit unusual, across the street from a park in a residential neighborhood a couple of blocks off of Stratford Road. So, it is not at all hard to get to, but it's no place you would just drive by and stop at on the spur of the moment.

Nice selection, good prices, great atmosphere. Friendly place to have a stick. Closes around 6pm so…read morestop by early.
