I live in Canada, and I ordered my Provari March 4th, and it shipped out in a couple of days as it should. But then it met the dreaded Customs processing on March 8th or 9th I believe. It hasn't moved, I have contacted Provape to start a trace on it, and they are willing to do so when they get around to it I suppose. I don't mind the wait, but if I knew it was going to take this long I would of seriously just waited for the Mini with Blue LED....Some have received the new mini already.

Just a little bummed...:p

Hey guys, just a little update. I still have not received my ProVari. I did contact Canada Customs, and apparently it is not "with them." I was told that it was at a Postal Warehouse where is will be run through on a conveyor "eventually" and be inspected by the Customs Workers, then it should be on it's way to me. Customs reassured me that those things get very backed up alot of the time, but I still find this all so odd and confusing. Does this make sense? I'm sorry I am new to this and could really use some encouragement that I will be receiving the product I already paid for......one day. :(

Ah man that sucks bro! I get my Mini today with Blue LED.. I have waited 8 days.. Customs suck! I feel bad for you it I is nerve racking and worry some to not know what or if your package is going to go through. They may not have known what it is and thats the delay especially if they never seen a Provari before, I mean I bet they have sent quite a few to Canada but maybe they opened it and it was there first time the officer seen it and they are looking it up as we speak so maybe thats the delay just a thought! hang in there and keep us updated thank you

Sorry to hear that man, I ordered my Black Satin Blue LED on March 15th... shipped out on the 26th, hit customs on the 27th and cleared on the 28th.

My Provari as of yesterday was sitting with CanadaPost in Richmond, it should be delivered today.

I know how you feel about the waiting, agonizing for sure, took forever to ship, I'm just happy mine didn't meet the same customs fate as yours did... although I am STILL waiting and refreshing the CPost website every 20 min until I see "Out for Delivery"...

The problem is, when my Provari arrives I will have to order a tank, and since I'm waiting for the SSteel endcaps from Phiniac the wait just begins again...

** Just learn to love the wait, gives you something to look forward to.

Thanks for all the encouragement guys! It is April 2nd today, and it still sits "awaiting review by customs" Though I have dont all I can do, ProVari has given me the date of April 19th, 2012, if it is not in my hands or back in they're possession by that date. I believe they will be doing something assosciated with insurance to make sure I get my money back.....all to just put another order in almost immediately. I am not giving up, this is usually the hand I am dealt in life lol. And it hasn't broken me yet....I just hope ONE day....I will be able to go through something "almost" flawlessly.

I will post again in a few days if nothing has happened still (which I am expecting).

Happy Vaping!

Man do not. I know how frustrating It can be, I am waiting also, you are in a better situation Than mine. I placed an order on the 27th and I believe it will be shipped after tomorrow, I am fed up of the waiting as well but please keep the faith, go to Walmart and buy a mistic e cig or whatever.

if they cost less than $10 i would, last time i checked those things are like $40 maybe, i drained my bank account for the provari and wont be able to get to a bank to cash checks for a few days so after buying food ive got $10 left till friday

this is when being good at soldering and having a 510 connection and some wire laying around would really be great, considering it would mean i could turn just about any old flashlight into a mod/passthrough. but ive never done anything like that and dont think i would be able to do it without messing it up a few times

The mistic actually cost $9.95 or something but yes it is less than $10 and it is good, it comes with one additional carto 18 mg tobacco flavor .

I just got an email from provape.com stating that my Provari has shipped, finally at the 8th days or waiting. Wow I am excited.
