A HORRIBLE place all around! ohhh boy… where oh where oh where do we start here? First off this place claims to sell authentic merchandise and they don’t!!! I accompanied a friend of mine to this hole in the wall store about 2 months ago. He was interested in acquiring some sort of electronic-cig type device. Quickly he was greeted by a friendly young man in his 20’s who seemed very enthusiastic about«hooking him up». Being a non-smoker I’m not interested in anything this store really has to sell and just want to get out of there. The guy shows him several models and types of devices. Finally they come upon a device in his price range and the guy knocks off $ 50 from the original $ 140 quote. After what seemed like forever my friend pays and we proceed too head out the door. This is where things started to get a bit weird. Before we walk out the door the guy’s whole attitude changes. «Uhhh… BTW… we don’t offer refunds, returns and all sales are final…» he said to us. «If you have any kind of problem… don’t come back here because there is nothing we will do for you». Kind of an odd thing to hear after you’ve just handed the guy your money and are steps from the door. This gave me a weird feeling, but I soon forgot about it. I hadn’t heard much from my friend about the purchase. He seemed happy up until about a month ago when the $*** hit the fan. It turns out the battery he bought from the store was some sort of cheap Chinese made model that ended up not threading to the e-juice tank. To make things worse when he went online to the companies website that manufactures these devices he found that both the tank and the battery where both counterfeit. He checked serial numbers and the website spit back out a warning message that he should be aware what he got where both fakes. Suffice it to say he was beyond annoyed and wanted me to go back up to the store with him and ask for an exchange. That didn’t do anything but get us called every name in the book and that we had lied and where now banned from the property. Great way to do business right? What a joke??? The 20’s something gentlemen was nowhere to be seen. This time it was an older, heavier, meaner, Arabic man who cursed at us like we had done something wrong. We where both completely shocked by his attitude. We didn’t once raise our voices and simply ask what, if anything, he could do for us. As soon as we said that all hell broke loose. I had to calm my friend down because lets be real here. This is Detroit. The most dangerious big city in the USA and knowing this area I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a gun under the counter. We calmly left the store and decided it wasn’t worth getting into a fight over $ 100. I strongly suggest anyone looking to purchase ANYTHING from a can of Coke, a stick of gum, or even a bottle of Advil to stay away from this place. You have no idea what kind of cheap merchandise this store has the balls to sell you. I think this store should be boarded up and the owners fined or jailed. What a horrible thing to do to people. Sell them junk claimed to be made in America that is fresh off the boat from China. SHAME on you Smoker Depot! SHAME!
