Just a Heads Up - $30 Lavatube Co-op

[bseven]

Hey folks check out this thread http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/variable-voltage-mods-discussion/256721-co-op-interest-l-rider-lavatubes-30-each-unit.html

the user shekinasgroom is putting together a co-op for a $30 lavatube (possible mini and extension and the 18650). Maybe if we get enough Canadians interested he or others who decide to take over the co-op might be willing to ship to Canada.
Right now he's just gauging the interest and is in negotiations with the Chinese supplier. The more people interested the better for negotiations.

Theres always a risk with co-ops and an added one for us with regards to customs but if you can get your hands on a $30 lavatube i'll take the chances.
I know its not for everyone but just giving folks the fyi.

They're not willing to ship to Canada as is? I ran into this thread a couple of days ago and expressed my interest in 2 18650 style. Customs is only a problem with nic liquid, not equipment. Even with nic liq, I have yet to have an issue and people have had their packages opened, tested as nicotine, and still sent to them. So what the heck?

 

[bseven]

I asked him about shipping to Canada and he replied:

Hmmmmm....dunno yet, that might get overly complicated.

I'll consider it once I researched freight costs to Canada.

Please edit your post to include your city/state/zip and I'll look into it.

I've never ordered equipment but have ordered nic juice as well with no problems. Thats good to know equipment is also not a problem. I hope they would consider shipping to us.

 

[ChellyNelly]

Me too! Such a great co-op. Let's all cross our fingers, toes, and any other appendages we have, and say prayers to Allah

There's no reason not do a seperate Canadian Co-Op, the minimum order is 10 units for a price of about $32.00, direct from L-Rider Technology Co.

I would be in for 1.

 

[Ms. Creant]

I do foresee one problem though, getting a box with one vaporizer through customs is not a problem but a box with 10 or more looks like you are retailing them and without HC's blessing and a $7500.00 piece of paper it could get refused entry.

Even if you are retailing them why do you think it'd be a problem? They don't have a ban on any type of device related to e-cigs, just the nicotine liquid. Also, we've got a lot of Canadian stores and more popping up each day, and they must get a lot of stuff from China?

Just my 2cents. I am hoping though that I can get in on the one already going.

 

[Ms. Creant]

paraphrasing what I remember from 1 or more vendors comments on the issue; HC considers PV's as a class 2 medical device and selling them in canada requires an endorsement from HC. A search in the canada forum for "class 2 medical device" should bring up their comments.

 

[ChellyNelly]

Anyone who wanted in on the co-op that's Canadian needs to go back and make a new post with you city, province and postal code to be counted!

 

[Shany]

Dont forgot the shipping price as it cost more than 100.00 to ship those 10 lavatubes. For the custom I dont think it would be a problem but we never know.

I don't think they're too sticky on that -- Lawtons and the Dollar Store are both selling PVs now! Lawtons, especially, surprised me because they're a very well-known drug store. The dollar store would carry anything that could make them money, I think lol.

We shall wait and see if this one will include us poor Canucks *fingers crossed*

If you post an interest in the co-op thread do not forget to put your CITY,PROVINCE,POSTAL CODE to be counted.

Just a heads-up..

 

[Cobber]

I'd be in ... for the current one or the new improved Canadian one

 

[Slickstick]

you guys are not figuring in shipping. It would be more like $41 each. 10 minimum

 

[torozzgrl]

$41...ok if the bulk order is shipped goes to the person who's arranging this and he then ships from the US there's no way it'll be $41 each for us. If it is, forget me lol

 

[Ms. Creant]

I wonder if L-Rider would ship to individual addresses if there was a minimum of 10 pieces, still it would probably be 17.00 shipping making the deal about 50.00 after conversion.

 

[ChellyNelly]

Big deal? I have to pay shipping for everything... Lol. It's not a deal breaker for me at all.

[Cobber]
