I hear ya....it's pricey for just 3 bottles....I've always ordered a stack of stuff to ensure that it's worth it for me.

Just to lessen the blow a bit, take into account the GST/PST and shipping costs on 3 x 30 ml juices.

GST/PST = 8.25
Shipping = 7.99
Product Price 18.00/bottle vs 12.50.

It actually works out pretty well.

Based on the price it seems to me that they are probably sending to Canada via Express Mail from the USPS

Maybe you could try and persuade them to go with Priority Mail international - a bit slower but cheaper.

Years ago Express Mail was the only way you could ship outside of the US and still have a tracking # but I believe you can now track Priority International.

As a business owner I NEVER send something without tracking so that could be the issue.

I agree about the shipping fees.

It's $25.00 to ship to NEW ZEALAND and that's what they're charging to ship to TORONTO? WHAT?!?!?!

Um, guys? There's a serious problem here. We ARE on the same continent. I can fly to Chigago in an hour and a half. I can drive there in a day. Sorry to say I can't do the same thing for New Zealand...

I ordered a few boxes of Cart's and ended up sending them to my brother in Michigan, shipping was 6.95 from V4L to Canton, MI. From Canton, MI, it cost my brother 4.00.

While I love V4L, if I didn't have a brother in the States, I would have to be seriously rethinking my options.

Sorry guys, but there's no WAY it costs $25.00 to pop 2 boxes of premium cartos in a bubble envelope. AND, OUR shipping fees are the same as NEW ZEALAND?!?

C'mooon here!!

Hi, I didn't mind paying the $22 for shipping the entire kit but now I just want to order 3-20ml Premium Juices which comes out to about $36 so the shipping would be $22 on a $36 order..

Can something be done to knock that down if I just order juice???:)

only way to get it down is to ship priority, you can request it, and we will credit you:toast:

no tracking with priority:mail:

That would be great, but are you sure? I asked this over email to the support on the website a while ago, and they said they can't do this, then I searched for Canada on this forum and found this post. Please let me know. That would be swell.

This link sold me on Vapor4Life's Juice.

Leaford – An E-Smoker Forever! -|- Leaford’s reviews, E-Cigs, E-cigarettes, electronic cigarettes, e-pipes Blog Archive A trip to Vapor4Life’s liquid manufacturer.

Ensuring I get a quality juice with no junk is very important to me considering I'm pounding this stuff into my lungs!

That is very cool and all, but I would find it just as valuable if a retailer paid to have the liquids they sell tested, and then show that report. So can put the whole made in china debate on e-liquids to rest.

To be honest, it is one of my concerns. How many products made in China have been shown to have unwanted materials. Pet food, toothpaste, baby formula! :(

Retailers need to be careful, it's the one thing that could really shut down sales of e-cigs.

About 1/2 as many as have been found in American companies. You would (probably) be amazed at how many "American" foods, or at least their ingredients, actually come from China.

Besides, China has been known to execute the president of a company for allowing hazardous materials, which resulted in death, into their products.
