I thought I knew how to get juice over here. I live near kyoto and I have been ordering juice off of feellife.com Their stuff is pretty good. Only problem is, my last order that I put in got taken by customs :( They sent me a notice in the mail stating that I had to fill this form out that they sent me and describe what the product is. Being as how I am here on sofa status, i am treading lightly because I dont want to break any laws. Anyone know any other ways to get juice over here? ill pay ya if you order me some. im really trying to stay off the Analogs

if you are covered under SOFA, then why didnt you just have it shipped to the APO address? just curious. i too am SOFA, and use both my mil addy and my house addy depending where i get my liquid from. you are allowed a certain amount of nic juice, so i would just fill out the form and send it back. unless you ordered 10-15 gallons, i doubt you would have any trouble. if you did have it sent to an APO addy, then no worries. shipping nic juice is legal. i have a mortar can full of it right now. more than likely, one of the bottle seeped some fluid out, and there is a wet spot on the package and smells from the juice they want you to explain before they forward it to you.

had a similar situation some years back when i ordered 4 gallons of motul800 2 stroke premix oil. customs was ...... that i had the audacity to order such quantities. asked them to produce some documentation stating that what i did was wrong, and all they could come up with was " well, japanese usually dont do that"... i laughed and asked when i could expect my shipment delivered...come to think of it, im do for another order of that stuff...haha

I cant use the APO because its super far from where i live. its like an 8 hour drive :p

I suppose i could get stuff sent there in the future and just have them mail it to me here. i gotta talk to some people. Dragon, do you think you could send me something in the mean time to hold me over? I am running dangerously low. ill pay anyone who helps me out!!!

did you ever fill out the paperwork to get ur original order delivered? i have shipped entire motorcycles, piece by piece to and from the states using the mail system here, and never ran into a problem. i have never heard of feel life, so i cant speak on them. maybe japan has them on a watch list for shipping suspect goods. i know a lot of packages from south korea get stopped and checked for copyrighted clothing counterfeits...i would imagine that a packages from china fall under the same scrutiny due to counterfeiting... but again, i have ordered from a few china sites, and never had issues with the APO address or my local address.

FWIW, my KX500 engine was in my backpack when i strolled through customs at narita... while they did look at me like i was a waterhead, they passed me through (no 500cc mx bikes were sold here)

not sure how that works. never heard of SOFA individuals not having postal service in the host nation. even the small outposts up this way have bi-weekly mail runs for the people working there.

I order a lot from china too. Not only vape stuff. I have never ever had a problem. I can't understand what deathmetal's problem with customs is.

Deathmetal,
Where did you order from and where is the order now? Can I have a tracking number or a copy of the letter from customs, so I can check it! Importing vape supplies and ejuice is NOT illegal.
Where is your next order coming from?

Im just going to go back to the post office tomorrow and see if they can help me. They sent me a form in the mail that I am supposed to fill out I guess, i have no idea what to do with it though. THe person at the post office seemed stumped too and I couldnt figure out what to do with it. Ill try to go back there with it tomorrow. It says notice of customs clearance procedure for postal matters from abroad.

Deathmetal, don't you have anyone who can read Japanese? If you want just take a pic with your keitai or scan or something and I'll try to help. I think you are just paranoid incase you get into trouble. Vaping and importing ejuice is NOT banned or illegal, just relax. You are gaijin and your ejuice is for your denki tabako. The end lol. Take it easy.

although, that Esolid looks promising. just wonder what it does to the lungs. watched a few vids on it, and it resolidifies when it cools. wonder if the vapor does that inside of you as well.

I've always thought that the 'sold' nic juice is what was used in the old per filled cartridges, (back when I started vaping years ago) and solid ejuice is still used in the newer disposable ecigs. That is why one will never hear of a 'leaking' Njoy King :).
