Features of disposable e‐cigarettes and their association with pricing and consumer preference: Evidence from web data of US online stores
In US-based online vape shops, disposable e-cigarettes with higher volume sizes are associated with lower prices, suggesting that price discounts for disposables primarily take the form of volume discounts. Consumers appear to prefer disposable e-cigarettes with lower capacity batteries, high nicotine concentrations, no synthetic nicotine, and fruit/sweet flavours.
