SCAM ALERT – VAPORIN

Hitler liked dogs, or so it is said. Child Molesters are sometimes priests. Do the nice things some people do erase, or justify the evil things they do. I suggest they do not. A Child Molester is evil, no matter what he/she does for a living. Hitler was Hitler, a mass murderer and lunatic, and the fact that he may have treated his dogs nicely doesn’t move me in the slightest.

What does these extreme examples have to do with Vaporin? Well, like the two above, Vaporin leads a corrupt existence too. Let me explain…

First, there is Vaporin, the one-stop eCigarette Vendor. Point your browser to vaporin.com and you’ll see a vendor offering a variety of branded devices and eliquids that are priced about the same as most other vendors. Well, except their eliquids, which is an incredibly high $9.99 for 12ML. But other than that, they are, like it or not, selling electronic cigarettes in the same fashion as most others do.

However, Vaporin is also in the business of ripping people off.

Point your browser here: and you’ll see that same bullshit products and prices that Regal, Prada, Emerald Lux, Smoke Star, and others are selling. 14-Day free trials that aren’t free at all, auto-ship programs at an outrageous cost, selling your information to 3rd party companies, and other atrocities (yes, atrocities) that take advantage of people that do not know what electronic cigarettes “should” cost, they have no idea that the “quality” of devices are vast, and like first time computer users, are completely lost when it comes to deciding which is right.

Electronic Cigarette Scams – We’ve done the Scam Alert posts for more than 2 years and while we have indeed helped many people avoid such fraudulent acts, a lot of the companies are still in business and still finding success in ripping people off. This has to stop, if not by regulation (where they can actually do some good), then by words of mouth. That being the case, I would like to call upon all of you to help spread the word that as long as Vaporin remains in the slimy business of selling 1 battery cig-a-like kits for $125 and eliquid auto-ship programs for $90 a month they should be shunned by every vaper on the planet.

You can’t have it both ways, especially in this industry. You’re either a good guy or a bad guy… you can’t be both. Vaporin puts up a front at vaporin.com and then stalks on the innocent by offering these scummy products at exorbitant prices. It’s time to put these out of business, or get them to see the light.
