Philadelphia, Pennsylvania--(Newsfile Corp. - December 22, 2024) - It is alleged that Shenzhen Smoore Technology Co. Ltd. (d/b/a "Smoore"), the manufacturer of the most popular vape brand in the United States, CCell (generically "510 threaded cartridges") created a "hub-and-spoke" conspiracy between Smoore and its distributors, including Jupiter Research, Greenlane Holdings (and its predecessor, KushCo), 3Win Corp., and Canna Brand Solutions, involving, among other things, minimum resale pricing and no poach agreements. It is further alleged that the goal of the conspiracy was to artificially, fix, raise, and maintain the prices of empty 510 threaded cartridges.

By unlawfully exploiting its monopoly power to exclude competition, it is alleged that Smoore and its distributors have unlawfully foreclosed would-be competitors from being able to disrupt Smoore's monopoly power and pricing, which in turn has allowed Smoore to charge more for empty CCell 510 threaded cartridges than they could have in a truly competitive market.

If you or your company paid for empty 510 threaded cartridges directly from Smoore or one of its distributors at any time since November 16, 2016, you may have been overcharged and may be able to recover financial damages as well as a court approved service award at no cost to you.
