Liquid Nicotine and Customs

[Alliecaet]

I need batteries, atomizers, nicotine and PG. I would love to order it all from HealthCabin and save on shipping costs.
I'm ordering 70ml of 36 mg and it may sound like a lot (it is) but when I cut it it will last a loooooong time.
Has anyone had Customs keep any of the ejuice or liquid Nicotine from your order?
Thanks in advance for any answers on this.

Nope, you are fine and anyway if you are the one in a hundred thousand that gets confiscated...you are covered for a reship by HC anyway. Amy mentioned they haven't even had a large reseller shipment confiscated in quite a long while.

And the 1 in 100K thing, that's just hyperbole to make a point it doesn't happen very often anymore.

 

[Alliecaet]

Thanks a lot. I'll place my order as soon as I get up tomorrow.

I have a question about this too..
I ordered the same bottle (70ml of 36mg) last thursday, but I live in Canada.
I've seen that some people get nicotine seized from the US, but I haven't seen whether or not this happens from China (which I guess is very likely). Anyway, so I was wondering, you said that you haven't gotten any orders seized by customs in USA, but what percent are seized in Canadian customs?

Has anyone answered your question? I know that HC won't guarantee orders with e-liquid to several countries, including Canada Germany Denmark Singapore and Belgium, against customs seizures.

thank you for your asking. we have a few orders seized in Canadian customs so far. generally it is a small percent. but it is much bigger than orders to other countries.

Thank you for the answer
I hope I'm not one of them, I got some other non-nicotine stuff that I'm really excited about!
Canadian customs can be very frustrating.

When German customs seize a shipment with nicotine in it, they give you the option to to destroy it or send it back. I never had one seized (mainly because I don't order nic from outside the EU), but people say that when that happens, they usually just ask the vendor to ship it again and it usually goes through. After all, only a small percentage of shipments is checked at all.

Thank you for your information about seized orders in Germany. it is very helpful.

Hello again, I'd like to buy the HC unflavored 110ml bottle with 36mg but can't find it available anywhere on your site and from the drop down HC juices menu. How do I do to buy it please?

 

[siouxsie]

You may have to wait a couple days for an answer because they are moving sites right now.

It should be available here. Just pick the size first, then pick No Flavor(PG base) or No Flavor(VG base). 36mg HC E-juice/E-Liquid(37 flavors) [HC Ejuice] - $3.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

I just ordered a boat load around Thanksgiving. Like siouxsie said, they are probably unavailable until Monday because they are moving. You can still order though.

EDIT: That's cool, they are even giving a discount for the inconvenience:
"...Dec 1 to Dec 5 will be sent out from Dec 6 within 2 days. all delayed orders can use the coupon code: hcmove and get a 8% discount as a compensation for the delayed shipping."

How's the shipping time during the holidays? I just ordered some stuff from China and I got a notice about shipping being swamped in China. The place I ordered from doesn't have anything to do with ecigs or HC but the notice was from China shipping. Just wondering.

Here is the notice I got: Owning to the coming holidays, the number of shipping package is intensively
increasing, which caused the Hong Kong airport?s package amount is overload.so
it may takes 15-25 working days for arrive,we really appreciate your patience.

 

[siouxsie]

They say it is not great, especially if it's not EMS so I'd be prepared to wait the time that they have stated.

 

[FreakyStylie]

I placed an order with HC on 11/26, they got it out on Monday, but "the boat" didn't leave until Wednesday. Prior to that, I got an order from another Chinese supplier on 11/21 and I received it on 11/30. I wanted to make sure I got in as early as possible because I know Christmas is made in China, LOL! I don't know how it will be the more we get into December.

 

[siouxsie]

HA! SO right, everything is made in China. Yeah I also have had speedy shipping from HC up through ordering early=mid November even when Amy was starting to alert us to holiday shipping expectations. I have an EMS and Reg coming from two other companies now and these are definitely taking longer to get to US customs or at least to get updated as to status.

I don't like to see any body that got the discount for moving complaining later about shipping times! It happened last time they had Chinese holiday, people got this discount for exactly that reason then complained later.

I have to agree with that. Anytime I order from outside the US I just figure it's going to take time. Either wait or don't order and then cry about it unless it takes 2 or 3 months. I've been lucky so far.

all orders placed during our relocation will be shipped within 2 days.

it is true that there is a big backlog from china post office to china airport. so china airmail is much slower than usually.
