During the second incident, they assaulted the man before stealing the same items.
The first incident took place on 3 March at 10:31 pm and the second incident occurred on 5 March at 10:05 pm.
During their return to the shop, the youths were wearing dark clothing, hoods and balaclavas.
They dragged the man from behind the counter and punched and kicked him before fleeing the scene with more boxes of vapes.
A CCTV camera behind the counter caught the two horrific moments on camera.
The shop is located in Leicester Square, London, as reported by Need To Know.
The man was left devastated by the incident.
