Manabush Robbed

Manabush Cafe Burglary 27/1/19 - 3.21am – Can you help?

Share on:
Formerly ‘Steam Tea and Vape’ in Mapperley, Nottingham, and now ‘The Manabush Vape Café’ suffered a burglary on 27/1/19 at 3.21am. Criminals broke in through the main window, and made off with a load of stock. Some of this isn’t available in many places and your help would be appreciated if you see it for sale or know anything about the incident.

The Manabush Vape Café offers visitors a chilled Vape lounge atmosphere, serving a selection of coffee, tea and cold drinks, with comfortable seating. It sells various juice and hardware lines including all the Manabush range, El Diablo, The Druids Brew, Cotswold Vapour, Twelve Monkeys, Indigéne Eliquid, Vapresso, Aspire and many others.

Owner Martin made the sad announcement of the burglary on the Planet of the Vapes forum and the Manabush Vape Café Facebook account: “So, we were broken into last night at around 3.21 am. They destroyed the front window and cased a lot of damage and mess inside the shop - and of course hoofed it with a load of stock (mainly Eliquids but some hardware also).”

“The eliquid haul contained a few liquids that are pretty hard to find anywhere but in our shop or online, namely the Spirtwalker by Manabush Range, and the Indigéne Eliquid range.”

“If you see any of that or anything else from the list for sale on Facebook pages, eBay, down the pub or anywhere else that looks suspicious please let us know. The police have got some good boot prints, which may help - or if anyone recognises any of the guys from the Facebook video or their voices, again, please let us know.”

Stolen hardware:

  • PockeXs - in silver, rose and gold
  • Tesla Invader minis (tester mods)
  • True tanks (tester mods)
  • Cthulu Hastur Minis (tester mods)
  • Kbox 200s (tester mods)
  • Evok 80s (tester mods)

Stolen eliquid:

  • Spritwalker by Manabush
  • Indigéne Eliquid
  • Elements (10ml Compliant bottles)
  • Twelve Monkeys (compliant 10mls in tubes)
  • Wick Liquor Shortfills
  • Occult Owl Shortfills
  • Forbidden Shortfills
  • ZAP Shortfills
