Hey Revolver!

Yeah, come and hang with us in the Canadian subforums!

To address your question, I haven't had an issue as of yet, with numerous orders.

I have heard of a few folks lately having some real slow customs movement. No packages that I know of have been SEIZED though, so I think you should be ok. Please keep us posted as to what happens.

Friend of mine recently had a single KR-808D1 kit from Heaven Gifts turned back.

Try Heavy Vapor - HeavyVapor.com, Personal Vaporizers Canadian Company..

I have had two shipments returned to ecig.com. The last one got me a letter from Health Canada, stating that I had to be a doctor to import nicotine. They hold the orders for ten days after determing that they contain nicotine, then send them back. It has been three weeks since I was promised a reship from ecig.com, and still no notice of shipment. The last order was for hardware only. The order for the original shipment was Oct. 29th 2009.

Anything containing nicotine stands the chance of customs seizure. If you "must" order outside of Canada, restrict your orders to hardware only (not even prefilled carts), or you run the risk of it not making it here.... not saying it "won't" make it, just that the chances of it doing so a greatly reduced.

There's really no reason to NEED to order outside Canada now, as we have very reputable Canadian vendors/suppliers here. I can understand doing so with regard to some of the elaborate mods and all, but just make sure when you do that you don't have nic in your order attempting to cross the border.

Freeze, Heavy Vapor appears to be a drop-ship set up out of china do to their mention of EMS shipping (regardless of their stated "business" address).

Hate to be the one to show you this Bob, but take a look at my post about ecig.com here:

Of course, THEY'RE not responsible for what Customs did, but I'd cancel that order with them just as fast as you can and re-order it elsewhere. Make sure they refund you too, I'd cancel it from your end just to be sure.

I agree with Greg 100%. (Which is unusual, he's normally such a nasty person..)

You can order your hardware from happy vaper dot com, you liquid from either vapables dot com or evapers dot com.

I've never had a problem with any of my orders, from both the States and China. Keep in mind the Canada Post's updates aren't always up to date. I've had them showing packages sitting in Customs and then it's at my door. I wouldn't panic yet!!

Good luck and let us know what happens!!
