Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Authenticity checks protect distributors and retailers from grey market Box stock.
Every serious sourcing conversation about the Box eventually arrives at authenticity checks, usually because it is where cost and risk meet.
Seasonality interacts with authenticity checks more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.

Batch numbers should match between inner tray, carton and invoice.
