Fatty’s Smoke Shop

Love this place, the selection is unlike anywhere I’ve ever seen. The guys that were there when I went were really cool and knew a lot about their products.

My initial visit was somewhat pleasant when I dropped in to take in their selection of Vaporizers. The next day I arrived a little after 9 AM (their advertised opening time) and they were closed. I ran errands and stopped back by two more times before 10:00 AM and they were still closed. I called the Bryan store to see if they had the Vaporizer I needed; they didn’t. Eventually I stopped back by this store later in the day and made my purchase. They don’t accept AMEX so I had to go next door to Walgreen’s and get a couple hundred dollars cash and return. I was not given a receipt. They don’t have a modern register– just the old school type that basically just added up all the numbers on paper tape– no transaction records or anything. I stopped by tonight to get a receipt and worker «A.J» advised me that «Because it was so long ago» he couldn’t go back and print a receipt– it was earlier today. I asked if I could call back and speak with the manager about the receipt issue and suggested and I should be comped for my wait time this morning for a few $ 7 disposable ecig tanks– considering that I did spend $ 300 in the store today. A.J. said he could not give out manager/​owner contact information. I was dumbfounded– how can you not give out the store manager’s name? A.J. seemed to quite inexperienced and like he was trying to BS me. The guy earlier in the day that sold me my Vaporizer was a lot more helpful even though he was 1 ½ hours late. I don’t know about this place. They have nice things– but I still paid $ 159 for a iTaste VTR that I can find online for $ 79 to $ 99. I’m going to check out the other smoke shops in town. The shady receipt system was enough to turn me off. That and no American Express acceptance or offering to make good with a customer that had to wait almost 2 hours the same day *Hissssssss*

I went in to look at Mods. the 2 had little to no knowledge of their products or mods in general. VERY expensive. I inquired about one in particular. They are selling it for $ 130. I pulled up the exact same mod on my phone for $ 30 and showed the saleman. His comment was along the line of ‘oh well’ and walked away to help someone else in disgust. Additionally, the mod didn’t come with a battery or anything else you need (which is common) BUT… they don’t even sell the additional items required! He actually wanted me to buy his product at the extreme mark-​up and then was referring me to his competitor (Aggieland) down the road to purchase everything else I need. What a joke. The owner (Indian lady) seems very sweet (and quite lovely) should consider staffing some that have more of an interest in the product and have more salesmanship skills than to simply walk away. Damn hippies… haha

Most expensive head shop ive ever been in, in a college town! But very nice selection.
They have cool pieces of artwork, even a cell phone repair business in the back.
Only reason for 3 stars is because of the price, I’ve been to many headshops, and this one is by the far the most expensive, but if money is no object, you will find what your looking for.

Only recently realized that there was another Fatty’s in College Station when seeing the new sign. Realized it even more when looking for the Sour Apple iPhone repair and accessory store. It’s inside Fatty’s. This store has great service, is nice and wide open, to me a lot more comfortable to shop in, as the one in Bryan is pretty small and cramped, yet cozy. The selection is mind blowing. :) Very large clean store with a little bit of something for everyone.
