Don't order a lot of juice from the states, but I've never had a problem in a year and a half. They normal label them "flavorings" 
Probably helps if the order is smaller rather than larger.

Ususally, you're lucky until you're not. Many people have made hundreds of orders from the US and had no problems. Others have had their very first order stopped. Luck of the draw, EXCEPT, it seems some people and some vendors do get addresses flagged. I can speak from personal experience here. Once you get one order returned, you tend to get several. Its also why some vendors no longer ship here.
I live 6 minutes up from the USA border and I get all kinds of hardware from US co-ops and have no problems going over the border. Its the juices thats the grey area at customs. Since its not considered a tobacco product, its up to the discretion of the officer at that time and if he/she has had a bad day..then you might have one also. Since we live so close we do lots of ebay, amazon and US companies mail order and have them shipped to my US shipping address. I don't want to get flagged cause of some juice and run into hassles every time we bring something back into Canada. Once you package has been seized or you get flagged, your marked and will have hassles with every package thereafter. Canada has plenty of top shelf juices so now if Canada Post would get their chit together and not have crazy long shipping times it wouldn't be so bad.
I have not ordered from the States for some of the reasons listed above, I see you are in Langley, for me when I've been caught short on juice CEV is the fastest shipping to Abbotsford. There is a fellow in Aldergrove that sells juice, my Niece buys from him, I haven't yet...he doesn't ship you have to pick it up. I can pm his email address if you like.
I'm ok right now, i have been down to ESV and someone else has given me some info for a guy right here in langley, but thanks. I was more curious about some of the higher end big name juices like pluid, and frankenvape i think its called. great feedback guys thanks
Frankenvape is now available in Canada from vapingmike.com (along with the other juices from The Standard line).
I would just go for it. There's many, many more people that don't get hassled from customs than do. The odds are pretty slim of getting your shipment confiscated. Just make sure you go with a vendor that has experience shipping to Canada. That being said, I agree that there are a lot of great Canadian vendors for juice. And some of the Canadian vendors do better on pricing for hardware than American ones. Myself, have always gotten my juice from the states. Whereas 90% of my hardware comes from Canada.
Not something I'd willingly be party to, especially if a batch were seized and tested. Would not go over well if it was labeled 0 and found to be 12mg. The resulting publicity would do a ton of harm.
The way I look at it, if you want to order from the USA, then pay your money and take your chances. There is so much available in Canada now at or below American prices, there's no real need to order from the south unless you have a favourite juice vendor there. When I started vaping I placed a lot of orders from The US, because there wasn't much available here, or the prices were outrageous. Thats just not the case anymore so all my orders are Canadian and I never have to sweat the customs issues.
LesVegas where are you getting your nic base from? I can't find any suppliers that have as good of prices as some of the US suppliers.
i wonder if they could/would actually analyze an order of liquid labelled "flavorings"?
instead of 0mg, i wonder if they'd be willing to just not specify on the bottle. it's not like loopholes are never exploited.

Nicotine MUST be included on the label as it is not only an irritant, in large doses it's a poison. This includes skin contact. Trying to get a company to mislabel a product, especially in the case of nicotine, doesn't do the business any favors and puts us all in a very bad light.
I just received my second order from AVE in the US, the border patrol opened it and resealed it with yellow tape, nothing was removed and clearly marked contains nicotine. My order wasn't held up time wise either. The next one has and GJ in it, hoping for similar or better result.
For me it's worth the risk, some liquids are supreme.

Because it's fun to try new vendors?
I DIY, buy Canadian juices and buy US juices. Myself and all my friends who vape love juggies and fancee, and I occasionally enjoy trying out some of the new popular US vendors when I can. I know I am taking a risk, but I've never had a packaged returned even if it's clearly marked as nic juice (thanks MBV lol).
It's my risk to take in the end

Count me as another not having had a problem getting juice from the US or abroad....yet.
Speaking of AVE, after weeks of trying, finally logged in while they were open and ordered a 100ml of Boba's Bounty. Almost $20 shipping...ouch.
Should've ordered 2.
