Closest Major City: Halifax
Vendor Used: AquaVapor, Mom & Pop Vapor Shop, Copper Creek, Parkes Vaping, Phiniac, and every single classified transaction with a US member I've ever had
Shipping Option: Doesn't seem to make a difference, all have been either Priority or First Class and there's no difference
Business Days From Shipment to Arrival: 14 days. Every time. This is all days, not just business

I'm not sure how much information this type of thread can really provide. There are so many variables with shipping and Customs that even an estimate isn't helpful, and a compilation of shipping times is just going to give us an average, which can always be wrong. But there's my experience anyways.

I think this thread needs to be a sticky!

Hi Chelly,

You're right about the variables. This isn't meant to be a deadpan list, just an average that can offer some brevity to those trying to figure out what to expect.

I know there have been too many times where I have had no idea what to expect in regards to shipping time, and I think it will be nice to have that estimate from fellow vapors in their respective provinces. I must have google searched "Where does X ship from" or "How long does it take to ship from X to Y" about a million times.

Thanks for your info. That's pretty crazy how all of your orders arrive in exactly fourteen days! Maybe someone is screwing with you. Makes things easy to remember though, right? Haha.

Oh no. I'm waiting for my Phiniac as well, it's been about a week and a half now. Hope we both get it on Monday

3. USPS 1st class int'l.
4. 1st shipment 6 bus days; 2nd shipment 5 bus days.

Nice to see the Gotvapes times above as I'm interested in their new carts and tanks.

Well as for Phiniac, I actually had to have mine re-shipped because it got returned to them after 2 weeks with a damaged shipping label. They reshipped with Priority Mail and I got it in 2 weeks. It was my birthday gift
