Well a atty is hadware DUH! So whats your point? I am stock pilled with 200! And will order 200 more next month! Not unless you can make me some lol?

Something to consider my friend. With 400 attys you have about a 10-20 year supply. You might want to consider that there will be improvement to the PV atty design within the next 10 years, that perform much better than the generation we have now.

No, attys are hardware, not hadware.

My point is that there is virtually nothing to panic over but I also think you are in the wrong forum. Health Canada has no issues regarding the hardware. Called them myself a while ago.

yes hardware fly's through customs without a hitch , but e-liquid is the only hang up other than prefilled carts , I have a good stockpile going but I import my liquids thru the USA and my hardware comes directly to me . my friend with 400 atomizers your doing things all wrong if you think attys are the problem its the liquid !!

Im not too concerned about a possible ban, after seeing the videos and write ups from canada`s Dr Carl Phillips testing and statements, it looks promising for us here in Canada EH, lol

Just look at pot, the BC marijuana party have rally`s all the time and openly use marijauana with no trouble from the authorities. Canada is a great place to live and look forward to seeing a larger e-cig community in years to come.

:lol:

Hey all. I am looking to start ordering my ejuice from China. I did a couple of searchs but was unable to find any word on reliability of certain suppliers. Where does everyone order from China and who do you like the best. I am thinking about Heaven Gifts as they have the flovour I am looking for.


P.S. i would have made a new thread but don't have the rights yet.

Heaven Gifts
Eastmall
Health Cabin

I have only used Eastmall. 2 times. Shipping time was between 2 and 3 weeks. Great prices and good comments in their sub forum here on ecf.

You've gotta be kidding.....

I've had no problem with orders from eastmall, heaven gifts, or health cabin. I've had about 5 orders with 8 or 9 30ml bottles clear without an issue. My latest cleared customs on Jan 2nd.

Can_supplier, if "100% of packages containing e-juice from China are inspected", then how do you manage to get yours past CC? Or for that matter, how does any Canadian supplier get their liquid?

While I agree that there is a possibility of a package being denied, it seems to be the exception not the norm. If it does get stopped, CC will ship it back, and you can pay for shipping again. Just don't send it to the same address. Once CC kicks a shipment back, that address is flagged and you won't have any luck. Just send to a different address and all should be well.

There is a reason why suppliers should be careful what they post. It looks like you are trying to scare people into purchasing locally, and wait, look at that, you sell liquid. Imagen that.


CC is inspection 100% of the packages containing e-juice from China. Maybe a package with 1 or 2 bottles might slip through.

Don't believe me, ask the Chinese suppliers. See if they STILL will offer to return your money if the order doesn't come through, shipping to Canada...

That hasn't been the experience of people ordering that I speak with. Where did you get the information from?

Lets just say 1st hand...

Maybe a certain address gets blacklisted, but I know suppliers from China that were not optimistic about shipping into Canada.

Again, I'm not trying to sell my own stuff here, just I would a) make sure who you are buying from will give you your money back b) not place a order which is more than you are prepared to loose.

Yes and look at my stock ;) Care to guess where the friends of my now out of stock bottles are? I've lost a lot, and not from the same supplier and not to the same address.

I think having someone try to order a lifetime supply that gets stopped at customs will "scare" them into buying from me better than any other way. So if that was my purpose, I woulnd't have said anything.

I'm just trying to help and relay what my experience has been. Again my advice wasn't don't do it, it was make sure you will get refunded if your order does get caught.

Changing your address isn't always the answer. Remember CC can also flag the shipper's address...

All I am saying is shipments are getting stopped.

While we are on the topic :rolleyes:

Here's an email I just got from top-rol;

I tracked your order, it should be stopped by the customs.

You have the right to ask your local ems to return the goods to us, so that we can send again. But as for your saying, refunding, you know, this is not our problem, we delivery the goods on time and they arrived in Canada, we can not control your customs, right?

So I am sorry, we can not return the payment. (like I said, spend what you can afford to loose C.S)


We can only try to receive the return goods from you and resend, also the resending shipping should be on your account. (small order here, but shipping was around 35USD-ish, is your order worth paying $35 TWICE for? Mine wasn't.. Its sometimes called throwing good money after bad C.S.)

Needless to say this adventure cost me a few hundred. So is juice cheaper in China, yup, but my friends and customers, we are not in China.

Not sure this was mentioned but instead of risking the customs garbage why not order from Canadian suppliers. Even if there is a ban on nic juice in Canada it will still be readily available. There are companies in Canada that ship hashish and pot on a regular basis. Several types of weapons are technically "illegal" here and are easy to find on Canadian websites. Im sure we will be fine.

I keep asking suppliers to send by courier rather than national Post.

National Posts from all suppliers take the longest and are more prone to be returned. DHL from China, makes it through Canadian Customs in minutes. From China Dhl costs about seven bucks more. Worth the price anyday. The delivery time is anywhere from five days to seven days from posting. The tracking has more detail from point to point evbery stop is included. Canada post takes from ten days to forever, to get through customs.
