Hello there, iam new to VP's but have been checking them out alot lately.. i ordered before i even knew that it was a problem to get into canada.. I assumed this product would be very welcomed into the world.....i ordered from a site out of china, seems extremely reputable and whether it is a ligitamate product or not doesnt really worry me, yet my worry is that it will NOT get across the border or into canada ... it is being sent by DHL...does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?? any kind of answer would b great, thanx p.s there is supposed to be an ego-w kit with a 50ml eliquid and two x 10 ml liquid

Well I hope it makes it for you. The unit itself shouldnt be an issue. But the juice may be. Only time can tell. If it is a problem you can order pretty much anything you need here in Canada. Any hardware you find you need or want later that you cannot get here can be ordered from the states or china so long as there is no nic in any of it. Hope it gets here for you

I too hope that it gets there .. I know the feeling of ordering something and having it "delayed" or not make it there at all... It sucks, but when dealing with ecigs (something that people are phsyced in changing their lives) it can be tough to be patient.. Vendors have lost my sales due to slow e-mail responses, delayed shipping, etc..

Is e-juice with nicotine in it illegal in Canada? Why? That seems like madness to me. :confused:

Yes it is illegal to import, sell and market in Canada. Would prolly be the same in the U.S. if TW hadn't taken the FDA to court. We should be VERY GRATEFUL to TW for what they did at thier own expense IMHO.

Holy crap, that is awful! I don't even understand the reasoning behind that. I know it hasn't been approved here as an official smoking cessation aid, but I don't know why they would want to ban anything that could stop smoking. I live pretty close to Canada and go to New Brunswick and Quebec all the time. I've even thought of relocating there. I would think the land of free healthcare and general awesomeness would be all for e-cigs.

well it made it to north america.....b ut it landed in cincinatti instead of canada... i imagine it will fly over here but it is in Clearance delay in cinnci....uh oh...they wouldnt care about anything that is leaving their country again would theY???

Sooty but unless it cleared Canada customs it still has to. I have had packages clear canada customs then go thru USA again on route to me but it depends. It can also take several days to weeks to clear.

i would have better chances with canada customs i think, people here are generally more open to things and dont care as much, especially vancouver..super loose place.. i just thought it was wierd that it was clearance delay in cinci, but i guess theres probably canada customs agents in those places too... i chcked with the company i ordered from and they said if it doesnt go through and even if its seized that they will re-emberse me.. thouight that was pretty cool of them..not tooo discouraged, if it doesnt come then i learnt my lesson and i should only order gear from out of country, juice within


i wanna thank everyone for replying and being so respectful and diligent..this forum seems to be full of serious vapers and i look forward to being part of the forum and part of the vaper community!
