customs getting harsher?

[mbottema]

Ok, maybe I'll try, but I contacted MBV to see if they had anyone order that much and had it rejected from Japan. They didn't have an answer except to say what most people here say. "120ml Nic juice for personal use." They probably got there answer from here. I'm not a risk taker, so no lottery tickets for me.

 

[Spencer87]

when I contacted MBV, they said you shouldnt order any juice in to Japan... because its risky...

Its probably a more reputable company though... so I might not...

The companies we order from have no problem writing coffee flavoring on the customs list.

thats why we order big orders

Mind i have stretched the 120 with a company that didnt and it was delayed but fine...

 

[mbottema]

I can't check the last bag to see what was written on the customs declaration. But if memory serves me good, they only list each bottle and the amount and not the nicotine level. I'll check on my next 120 ml order before I order big.
I only use MBV because they are reliable, cheap and their juices are really good.

 

[Spencer87]

yea.. theres a few we are switching in between now. 1 is 120 ml for 27.

 

[Vo0Do0]

Lucky to get 300ml through. I wont try that ever again. haha

 

[Spencer87]

I got an order coming in. Hopefully geT's through

I had customs open an envelope with a 15ml bottle a couple weeks ago. 1st time for any vape stuff I've got and I've had quite a bit come thru. Mine all comes in via military FPO but customs still gets to check it. Got a lot of years here and this is only the 2nd time I've had stuff opened. Have known others that had things checked but not often. Just received a shipment that had over 250ml of DIY liquids (30ml of nic) and didn't get looked at. Got another with 210ml ejuice on the way - hoping they don't mess with it. Have had packages in the past that were between 150 and 200 get here with no problems.

I've been doing 2 monthly orders from Yaeliq@120ml each order. $10 shipping.
On the post slip its written "100ml flavoring x1, + 10ml flavoring x3.
I get 1x 100ml+10ml flavor boost & 2 (10ml) juice samples on 1 order.
the other order is 12 samples of 10ml each, same $10 shipping.
Its also shipped as a "Gift". Would that matter?
I've heard no matter how much you order, its $10 shipping.
I'd like to order more but since they put the quantity on the post slip I figure I'd get burned (better to be safe than sorry).
The samples are 10ml@$3.50 each. 100ml are $18 each but every month they have a "steal of a deal"...select flavors are $10 for a 100ml. All their flavors are excellent!

I also order from Open Source Vapor. %100 organic
(keeps the happy)

In my experience I have no problems ordering more than 120ml, but don't take a risk for more than 120ml, it worries you too much though..

I have made ordered twic from Nicoticket, recently order from Nicoticket, no broken bottle issues and happy with it.

I've ordered from killer juice twice, about 180ml on my first oreder and it got that through, but they messed up with my second order, i told them about it, but i am too lazy to send it back, so I choose to not order from them anymore.

Ordered from GV twice 120ml and 150ml and both orders contains leaked juice, they gave me discount codes and I'm satisfied with it, will be ordering more from them in the future since they also have Nicoticket on their line.

I Also ordered from smokelessimage.com but less than 120ml.

So in my opinion it depends on the vendor, if they do not have problems to alter your order on the customs document into flavoring rather than eliquid, i think you gonna be just fine.

got my package with the 210ml of ejuice today - seven 30ml bottles. custom form even had ejuice listed on it. customs didn't mess with it. even though they check the stuff coming to FPO I don't think they check as high a percentage as they do for things going to regular addresses.

At Mac 63
Your lucky... paying USA shipping costs. We get burned with 20$ shipping usually

 

[mac63]

shipping costs are ok but it takes 2 weeks to get priority mail - sometimes 3

 

[Spencer87]

Apparently same here. 1 time waited 20 days. This time been about 14 already.

I seriously think y'all are unlucky if your juices get held up or rejected at customs. I have been ordering 300-400mls of nic in single shipments for 4 years now and got every single one with in two weeks. I use fasttech and order dekang and Hangsen juices. Where are you guys getting this 120 ml figure from? Please don't give me a speech about China low quality bla bla blah......

actually a lot of chinese juices are not bad quality,
Just mass produced. no worries tho. Whatever you like, you like.

I dunno, Someone heard it from a customs official somewhere. but yea, weve ordered 2-300 mls without issue

 

[Hokkaidomist]

I think as long as you order things in ml and not liters you will be fine.

As manufacturing professional ive always been confused with community hatred for dekang and hangsen.

i think its just ... you buy a cheap 1 dollar radio made in china, you expect it to be crappy.
you buy a cheap 1 dollar juice from china, you expect it to be crappy, and .... its consumable.

 

[Hokkaidomist]

Yeah i get that but that was like 20 years ago when the usa was actually manufacturing stuff. Now everything is made in china, iphone included. In china now whether something is poor quality or not relys on the level of quality control standards they use. Both dekang and hangsen have far exceeded the level of quality control used by most brick motor juice makers in the game. The reason you can get a 7　dollar 50ml juice is because those two have the manpower for high output capacity compared to 6　dudes outsourcing flavor components and nicotine, mixing them in smaller batch sizes by hand and hand bottling them. There is going to be more variation in production. To keep the perception that quality is high they have a higher factory 2nd yeild(stuff that doesnt quite make the cut). This cost money and to account for that you get ya 7 dollar 10ml bottle of a comparable flavor.

Never going to say non china liquida dont taste good. They do and have great quality. I think there isnt much difference and wouldnt worry about it if its a Dekang or hangsen juice.

yea, another reason is we have heard china is a little lax on labor laws... thats why everything is so cheap. But i have no problem vaping it.
just hope a 7 year old didnt make it
