One Large Order Or Multiple Smaller Orders From USA E-Liquid Suppliers?

[Chemfatale]

Hey I'm looking to place an order for e-liquid from the USA.

I'm looking to get around 15 bottles and I' wondering if I'm better off ordering 1 larger package, or multiple small orders.

I worry that a larger package might attract more attention than smaller packages, but with smaller packages I have more packages that might get inspected.

Are any shipping options less likely to be inspected?

I've made large orders from China and had them shipped standard shipping which takes a good 5 weeks, but all of them have gone through. The quicker shipping methods from China are more likely to be inspected, but I'm wondering what the best way to go about ordering from the USA is.

Any advice or personal experiences is appreciated.

Probably smaller orders... and make sure they mark them appropriately.

Most i've ordered from the US has been 4 bottles and they were marked "Flavored Syrup". No issues.

The place I'm ordering from doesn't make any custom declaration. Just sent like a personal package.

I ask that there be no invoice in the package, and no labels on the juice now. Then you are pretty much golden.

No labels? Do you mean no custom declaration or no labels on the bottles? How do you know which flavour is which? I was thinking of asking if it could be labeled 0 nic, but that might draw attention.

He means no labels on the bottles. You could ask the vendor to put no labels on the bottles and then just the initials for the juice. like Tobacco = TB
Chances are you'll be fine, I've done about 15 orders now, probably more now that i think about it. And all but one got through.

Nine 10 ml bottles made it through no problem. I recommend using a slower mail option. With USPS the slow mail option still only took about a week.

What is the deal with hardware getting across the border? Are they putting their squeeze on that too or is it just the juice?

I placed a sizable hardware order with some juice from TECC. Its been sitting in Mississauga customs for three weeks now, I hope they push it through since there is only like 60 ML of juice.

I really like the juice Totally Wicked makes but they wont ship it here. Anyone had any luck getting stuff from them recently?

Funny - i just sent an email to David at freedomsmokeusa a few days ago asking this exact same question. So, ill relay what he told me. To paraphrase:

Feel free to order big. FSUSA take precautions that should ensure a safe delivery.

You can believe it, or you can question it. But thats the jist of what I was told direct from supplier. I figure they have more experience in shipping customs issues then anyone. So, my next order is likely to be substantial.

I am very angry, my large order from TECC got rejected and now I'm low on hardware and juice. Does anyone know where to get RN4081 super mini parts that's Canada friendly?

 

[rageorizer]

I have heard that customs has no problem with the hardware parts and that its only the liquid nicotine they look out for? Anyone know if that is the case?

VIECS (viecs.com) has 4081 starter kits for like $30, you might want to contact them and see if they have parts as well. You could also look out for DSE103 parts, I believe they are compatible -- theres a Canadian company I won't bother mentioning that sells rebranded 103s, but a single battery there will cost more than a decent 510 starter kit anywhere else. Check the Canadian suppliers forum for a list of other good places to check.
