Crystal Prime 7000 Pod Kit

Since 1 June 2025 it has been illegal to sell single-use vapes in the UK, and the original Crystal Prime 7000 was exactly that: a sealed 16ml disposable. The device in this listing is the rebuilt pod-kit revision, rechargeable and refillable by pod, with a 2ml chamber that keeps it inside TPD limits. Same name, same shell, different machine, and the difference is the whole ballgame. Trading Standards have spent a year working through shops still carrying pre-ban stock, and "the wholesaler said it was fine" has protected precisely nobody.

The catch for a buyer is that half the trade listings never caught up. Pages quoting 15ml or 16ml capacity, "disposable" in the product type, or a suspiciously cheap price on old stock are describing the banned format. Ask the question in writing before you buy from anyone. Our line: we list the compliant revision only, the invoice names it, and if a flavour is out we say so rather than quietly substituting week-old warehouse finds. The comparison below is the two-minute version to keep by the phone.

A genuine trade hazard with this product is its name. "Crystal" is the most crowded word in UK vaping, and three unrelated companies own a piece of it. Crystal Bar belongs to SKE. Crystal Pro Max is a Hayati family product. Crystal Prime, this one, is its own brand with its own factory line, distributor programme and flavour range, and no corporate connection to either of the others despite what a decade of shop-counter shorthand implies. Customers use the three names interchangeably. Suppliers sometimes do too, which is worse.

Why it matters to your ordering: flavour menus, RRPs and box formats differ across the three, and a customer asking for "the crystal one" usually means whichever shell their last shop stocked. If your trade is SKE-led, the Crystal Bar wholesale line is the direct answer and this kit is the upsell beside it. If they know the Hayati ecosystem, start from the Hayati wholesale range instead. Stock the one your till receipts actually name, not the one a rep swears is trending.

A trade box holds ten kits of a single flavour, and at the box price on this page that lands the unit cost at six pounds including VAT, five pounds ex. On the high street this device commonly tickets between £7.99 and £9.99 a unit. Sell at £9.99 and the retailer keeps roughly 40 per cent POR after VAT; at £8.99 it is nearer a third. That is honest big-puff margin, not the fantasy doubling some price lists imply, and it beats the sub-30 percents that legacy 600-puff stock has drifted to in most areas.

Rotation beats depth with a sixteen-flavour range. Open with four or five boxes across the bankers listed below, watch a fortnight of till data, then deepen the two that move. Because the box is ten rather than five, one order covers roughly double the shelf-days per line, which is the quiet advantage of this kit over its five-boxed rivals when your cash flow prefers fewer, larger orders. How that thinking scales across a whole vape order is mapped on bulk buy vapes, and the shelf this kit belongs to lives under prefilled pod kits.

The short version: this revision is legal because it recharges and the nicotine lives in a 2ml pod at 20mg, inside TPD limits. The long version is your responsibility at the counter. Age verification on every sale, Challenge 25 as working practice, and a paper trail: invoices from a UK VAT-registered wholesaler are what you produce when an inspector asks where the stock came from, and ours carry full VAT detail against the compliant product name. Facts verified against gov.uk guidance on the single-use vape ban and the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations, August 2026.

Two Crystal-specific wrinkles. First, because pre-ban 7000 stock was everywhere in early 2025, this name attracts more grey-stock offers than most; a pallet of "clearance Crystal Prime" at silly money is a seizure risk wearing a discount. Second, the lithium cell makes retired units WEEE waste, so your commercial waste contract should say so. Neither point is unique to this brand, but this is the shell the offers arrive in.

Most "faulty" returns on this device are nothing of the sort. Walk your counter staff through these three and the dead-unit shoebox in the back room stays mostly empty.
