How much does a cart cost?

The price of "Cart" (vape cartridge) varies without a uniform standard, ranging from several dozen yuan to nearly a thousand yuan, mainly depending on the type, capacity, ingredients, and location.

To facilitate your comparison, I have separately listed the price information of ordinary nicotine cartridges in China and THC cartridges in North America:

China: Price of ordinary nicotine cartridges
In the Chinese mainland, according to current regulations, electronic cigarette cartridges are mainly sold in tobacco flavors, and the prices are relatively concentrated. Here are some examples of different brands and specifications:

Brand/Product Specification/Feature Reference Price (RMB)
ZGAR Ice Bear 6.0 PLUS 3.5ml capacity, compatible with YooKee multiple generations ¥48 - ¥50
Polar Six Generation Cartridge 3ml capacity, compatible with YooKee 4th to 7th generations ¥89
RELX YooKee Building Cartridge 18,000 puffs / 22,000 puffs ¥135 - ¥138
Elfbar Building Cartridge 20ml large capacity ¥130 - ¥250
From these examples, the price of ordinary Chinese nicotine cartridges is generally between ¥50 and ¥250.

North America: Price of THC and other cannabinoid cartridges
In regions where cannabis is legalized, such as the United States and Canada, the price of cartridges varies depending on the extract type and capacity. According to the 2026 price guide, the mainstream prices are as follows:

Extract Type Capacity Reference Price (USD)
Distillate (Extract) 0.5g $5 - $35
1.0g $5 - $50
Live Resin (Extract) 0.5g $12 - $30
1.0g $15 - $80
Live Rosin (Extract) 0.5g $15 - $35
1.0g $40 - $90+
Generally, distillate (extract) cartridges have the most affordable prices, live resin (extract) has higher prices due to retaining a more complete flavor, and live rosin (extract) as the top solvent-free product, has the highest prices.

Main Factors Affecting Price
Extract type: This is the most crucial factor. From cheap distillate to expensive live rosin, the differences in process and cost are significant.

Capacity: Usually there are two specifications of 0.5g and 1g, and the 1g version has a higher total price, but the unit price may be more cost-effective.

Brand and quality: Products from well-known brands and those with third-party inspection reports are usually priced higher.

Region and taxes: Different regional cannabis tax rates and market maturity affect the final price.

Purchase channels: The price in legal pharmacies (dispensaries) will include taxes, while prices from other channels may vary.
