As counterfeit devices spread through marketplaces and social media, the German shops report that customers increasingly prefer dedicated stores for Al Fakher and RandM Tornado products

Germany, October 25, 2026 – The way adult consumers in Germany buy disposable vapes is changing. According to the teams behind the specialised online shops Al Fakher Vape and Tornado Vape, more and more customers are turning away from general marketplaces and anonymous sellers and choosing shops that focus on a single brand.

“Customers have become more careful,” the team explains. “Many of them have heard about counterfeit devices or had a bad experience themselves. They want to know exactly where their product comes from, and a shop that specialises in one brand gives them that confidence.”

One Brand, One Shop

Both stores follow the same principle. Instead of offering hundreds of products from different manufacturers, each shop concentrates on one range and presents it in depth.

Al Fakher Vape is dedicated to the disposable vapes of Al Fakher, a brand that built its global reputation in shisha tobacco. Its devices carry classic shisha flavours such as Double Apple, Grape Mint and Blueberry Mint in a compact, ready-to-use format.

Tornado Vape focuses on the RandM Tornado series, which is popular with users who prefer larger-capacity devices and a broad selection of flavours.

“When a shop focuses on one brand, customers can compare flavours and models much more easily,” the team says. “And we can make sure that everything we sell is genuine.”

Counterfeits as the Main Driver

The shift is driven largely by the growing number of fake devices. Counterfeit vapes often look almost identical to the originals but may contain unknown liquids, incorrect nicotine levels and low-quality batteries. They are typically sold through social media, messaging apps and unofficial marketplace listings at prices that seem too good to be true.

Both shops sell only original products that comply with the EU Tobacco Products Directive, including the legal limits of 20 mg/ml nicotine and 2 ml tank capacity for disposables. They recommend that adult buyers always check for a complete legal notice, clear product information, a health warning in their own language and a traceable batch number on the packaging.

Responsible Sales to Adults Only

Both shops sell exclusively to customers aged 18 and over. They also remind buyers that disposable vapes contain lithium batteries and electronic components, so used devices belong in battery or electronics collection points and not in household waste.

Nicotine is a highly addictive substance. Nicotine products are intended only for adult users and are not suitable for non-smokers, young people or pregnant women.
