Need Help About Ordering Eliquids!

[J87L]

(excuse my not so proper english.. )
Hi, im very new to this vaping... and been vaping for about 2-3 months now.
Started with the automatic small cig like ones and then to a bigger manual one, and now stuck on eGo-C type B.
AND I LOVE IT!

but i have 1 problem.

my husband and i.. we r currently out of states... we r in Korea.

And.. the e liquids they have out here are very very very mild (weak) in nicotine and doesn't really have many flavors.
i actually found this one eliquid that like alot which is blueberry.. been doing some research on it and heard that VaporBomb.com had some good blueberry flavor. and my husband loves mocha cappucino so we ordered some...

2 for me and 2 for him.. (about 75 dollars worth including the shipping)

then i heard about this tax and the whole thing that it might not get delivered if it doesn't get approved by Korea and we won't be able to even get a refund..

of course i found this out AFTER i ordered it..

so my question is.. did i make a mistake? will it go through and get delivered? will there be some extra charges that i might have to pay up when delivered? are there better options as to ordering online?

(i did however heard Halo goes through and ships with no problems.. but i didn't find anything that i liked.. )

SO PLEASE HELP ME! as much as i love vaping.. i do not want to waste money.. !!!!

please help!!!

Not much we can do about Korean customs. I'm not sure what the laws are over there; we can just hope your order goes through. Maybe some Korean members will drop by with suggestions.

Good luck.

Try contacting VaporBomb and ask how prior shipments to Korea have panned out.

That's not good! Are there any laws there that regulate e-cigs?
Hope you get your package!

Have you thought about having family/friends in the states accept the delivery for you and send them to you as a care package?

I worked in South Korea for about a year and alot of things were just a hassle to get at times so i would have people stateside send me things i wanted in care packages. Nothing illegal but just things that were more annoying to have direct shipped

what i heard is that Korea's tax is much higher than U.S. so if the product's tax is more than the product itself, they return it back or something. i was lil bit confused also.

Hmm that is pretty good idea as far as making sure the package gets delivered.
i feel so dumb atm. why didn't i think of that? hahaha thank you so much!

No worries, that's why we have forums like this to share knowledge. I've worked all over the world so I have a pretty good understanding of what expats have to deal with in other countries.

Enjoy South Korea though, it's home to the friendliest people on earth in my opinion (though I was in Geogi and not Seoul)
