    Default Confirmation of Seizure

    Great, just got a letter in mail from Health Canada notifying me of seizure of my order from march 13.

    Says: shipment violates sections 9(1) C.08.002(1)(a)
    Reason's: Drug likely to create an erroneous impression regarding composition or safety. A new drug that has not met prescribed conditions.

    Shall be interesting mess to sort out. Talking on phone to one inspector that informed me I cannot be found in the database, and now have to wait for the inspector that initiated the seizure to call. As I understand it only thing to negotiate is sending shipment back to Eastmall and hope they will refund, no chance of talking them into passing order to me.

    Having had to call two different numbers for Health Canada inspectors so far, I noticed that all phone numbers there are (604)666-____

    wow..real bad luck!!
    Did it come through EMS?
    Customs specified seizure instead of refusal?
    Hang in there and hope you can send it back to get your money back..!

    Just looked at my original bill, yes, EMS shipping.

    Refusal would be proper naming device. I suppose seizure would suggest they will keep it, which is not possible for them either, (since it is not allowed entry). They are sending my order back. Just got off phone with agent that refused my order. Sympathetic ex-smoker of two years. She informed me that the proper licensing is just about complete as a medical device. She did not divulge what company is doing it, I will assume a pharmaceutical company has struck a deal with Chinese manufacturers. She told me that the liquid will not be importable and that the cartridges will be classified "schedule F" meaning prescription only (from doctor). Anyway, she said rumor on her end was; that it may be as soon a few months away.

    I feel for you guys in Canada, as for the US here's what I have for tracking today:

    Status: Inbound Out of Customs

    Your item cleared United States Customs at 2:41 AM on April 20, 2009. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.

    So, we're still getting things through. Possibly only because of luck, or maybe customs just hasn't been instructed to intercept small shipment, or maybe they just missed it. I don't know, so I'll just count myself lucky ... for now.

    Ditto, CellWho and so sorry to hear about that Lakota! Man, I was going to place an order with Vaporolla tonight too. Too scared to now. Wonder if any order from a supplier in the US will get through now either. This is just too $&#*(*@ stupid! And, no, it doesn't surprise me in the least that they are thinking of making these things 'prescription' only. Man, this news does NOT make my day. Hope you at least get your money back, Lakota. Maybe you were just terribly unfortunate and got snagged and some others who have ordered will get through but what a freaking roulette game to have to play.

    My understanding from those who have spoken to appropriate officials, it that that hardware is fine as long as there is no nic in the shipment. The idea of a prescription is for carts containing nic.

    I got one from BestEcig, very fast (ejuice) and Igot one from David Yang (hardware & juice). Both arrived in customs and cleared the same day. I still have 1 more order pending from David Yang.

    Sorry to hear about what's going on in Canada.
