health Canada got me 3 for 3

[jwroths]

well I'm not a new member but new poster I've been vaping for about 2 years now and although I don't make any health clams I do know that I don't cough up yellow stuff anymore. So why dose health Canada keep taking my shipment . They got the last 3 shipment I've tried to get in. Any fellow Canucks have any advice on how to get orders in from the U.S. or China?

How do you know your delivery has been intercepted by them? Do they leave a note?

 

[crazycooter]

Mayb split your orders up but seems u have already fine that. And perhaps have them label it as oils or aromatherapy or something.

It's absurd. Canada have banned e-cigs I presume.

What is wrong with the world?

Sorry to hear the news.

I've got 2 letters both using food and drug regulation C.01.045 (1) and one was just returned so far the venders have been good and given me a refund minus shipping. Just for kick I heard you could have hole leaf tobacco shipped with no problems, so I gave it a try and sure enough got 2 lbs no problem go figure

Some vendors know how to package shipments for Canadian delivery, some don't. Hardware is generally trouble free when having it shipped in. ejuice, on the other hand, can be intercepted and sent back.

There are Canadian vendors a plenty who have some pretty tasty juice. Really no need to have it shipped in any more, unless you're REALLY desperate for something made outside of Canada.

Order from within Canada!

Some vendors won't publish nic content, so you have to ask.

roll your own time?

For a long time I had been looking for an ecig in canada, and thought they were illegal with the nicotene...gotta look within canada, they are out there!!

They're not illegal. But Health Canada tries to push their own flawed agenda by having ejuice containing nicotine rejected at the border.

 

[OzarkTroutBum]

Are the retailers you are using blacklisted?

Any friends in the states to drop ship to so that your order is coming from an individual and not an ecig company?

Years ago I got to go to Cuba but wouldn't be allowed to bring any souvenirs back due to US law. We shipped all our stuff (not cigars) from Cuba to a friend in Canada via DHL who reboxed it and shipped it to us via UPS. Worked like a charm.

Think its a labeling and testing thing. Not that it illegal but it don't meet thier standard for labeling and or testing qc.

After 5 posts, read here, and U may find more info and Canadian vendors.... Canada Forum

I gave extracting the nic out of the whole leaf but that was a disaster, stank up the house and tasted like an old ash tray did do a few of roll my own but I think I got the wrong kind of tobacco it was WAY to strong. as for buying in Canada I have and do but find the It cost about twice as much as the U.S. and can get if for about 1/3 as much as China

Where is Canada do you live? There are some B&M stores in various locations.

 

[SASmith]

It's illegal to import nicotine, (or so they say) and if we tried to import cigarettes they would probably stop a shipment of those as well.
There are quite a few reliable vendors within Canada and to avoid hassles .....I have been sticking with them. As szot suggested...once you get your 5 posts head over to the Canada forum for help. Just post....who are your favorite ejuice vendors.....I'll get you started my favorite is Maple Leaf Vapes.

I think I give crazycooter's suggestion a try when buying outside Canada. I live in Red Deer Alb, I cant wait for the day when I can just run to the local vape shop and pick up my supply

Well it been a long time but a big thank you to D&D, Dustin did it. Once my package got returned he relabeled it as incense oil and it got through
