Something that I feel needs to be addressed,
We have had numerous people coming in lately asking about the Geekbar/Lost Mary/Raz Disposables and asking me a lot of questions on whats happening.
Some people have responded to this with understanding, where some have responded with misplaced anger towards our shop, and don’t understand that this is out of our control.
The US Customs has begun seizing all unauthorized v***r products coming from China (99% of the disposable market) in a joint effort with the FDA and other government organizations. They are calling these illegal vapes because they have not been approved by the FDA for sale yet, but there are Big To***co v***r products that have been approved..
There has been some talks about tarriffs affecting these products, but i have yet to confirm that 100% so I wont add any input until then.
This isn’t only affecting those companies listed, it’s affecting the ENTIRE market of all ni****ne disposables coming from China.
I have been in contact daily with my distributors awaiting any change or developing news with the situation at hand. They are all practically completely sold out.
I cannot wave a magic wand and make your favorite Geekbar show up at the shop, as much as I would love nothing more than to supply the current demand, this is not a local issue, this is a nationwide Federal issue.
However, we still do have a ton of refillable systems and tons of liquids for our customers. I cannot suggest this enough during these times.
These are tough times to navigate in this industry. I am among few of the actual V***r Shops still left here in MN, the regulatory hardships we have endured are unfathomable, and I understand why many have closed their doors permanently.
I am going to continue to try my best to supply my community with the best product I can find, and hope there is some light at the end of the tunnel.
For now, I ask for your patience as we navigate this situation. Thank you for your understanding and all of your support. ❤️
