Thanks Health Canada, for blocking my ejuice shipments...

[Mike_1965]

i am now down to the last and crappiest juice I have. Mint chocolate and cigar, and I have to mix them because the Mint is 100% VG and too thick to vape well. So I am vaping something that tastes like a peppermint double dipped in donkey piss (or what I think donkey piss would taste like) .
I have located a few Canadian juice suppliers and have orders in with them. I hope they come soon.

Has anyone else had shipments to Canada returned to the vendor?
Are "hardware only" shipments coming through to Canada OK?

I had a shipment arrive from the US earlier last week. But the sender didn't put his company name on, rather his first initial, last name and home address. So it looked like your average parcel.

I ordered a starter kit with 3x10ml 18mg Marlboro flavoured juice.

I know Vapables ships very quickly.

In regard to your blocked shipment, can I ask which supplier you ordered from?

 

[AlbertaClipper]

If you can tell what area you're in, someone might be able to meet up with you and give you a few ml's to tide you over....?

Hardware only orders should not be a problem. I have had several orders containing hardware opened and inspected by customs. They might delay it but never had it refused or confiscated. Mix juice and hardware at your own risk.

I would recommend ordering within Canada if delays or not receiving the juice would cause you to vape "donkey piss" like juice. If you are going to order from outside Canada hope for the best and plan for the worst. I always put Canadian order and request no mention of ecigs/juice in the comments section of my orders. There are many companies who are experienced with shipping to Canada and know how to do it right.

On some level you should be happy that they just returned it to the vendor rather then confiscated or destroyed it. At least this way you should be able to get it reshipped or partially refunded. Email your vendor to see what they will do for you.

I'd also like to know which vendor you used also if it said that the order was returned to vendor in the tracking info. I'm waiting on an order from Madvapes I placed 2 weeks ago and was about to place an order with Tasty Vapor so now I'm a bit concerned.

 

[hotone]

Lots of people in Canada order from tasty vapor they definitely know how to ship to Canada. Madvapes is also a popular place to order from though they do put the name of the company on the package. I would expect 2 weeks minimum to Northbay from either place.

id love to help but i cant i dont know where u are and my juices r running low im not down to donkey piss yet tho lol i wish u luck man

 

[Chuck Gnarly]

I really hope they're not too diligent on this, as I've just ordered three separate shipments from BWB, Alien Visions, and Vaperite.

Surely at least one of them will get through, and I've asked that they ship "Canuck/Stealth" in the comments section of all 3. Here's hoping they sharpie that out on the invoice!!

Also, I've been told that RC car oil looks a lot like e-juice, so I asked avejuice to take labels off and mark that if they can.

Sketch! It's so stupid we have to deal with this.

It's so stupid we have to deal with this.

Yes, it is !!.... and worth mentioning: Those in the "know" realize that posting the means of circumventing regulations on an open to all view forum will/can still bring unwanted attention to "Canadian friendly" suppliers outside of Canada, so they avoid posting this information and usually pm between members to advise/suggest how to lessen the risk.

Just sayin... because you can never know who's watching !

VapeOn,

I believe Madvapes still use the pony express as their orders take 2-3 weeks. Don't know about TV.

Folks as Greg stated "mums the word".

I have to order from US cuz no-one in Canada stocks 36mg strength juice. Now, lately even Priority packages from not very far away in the US have taken 2+ weeks! Which is insane, but worth it when it shows up. I'm probably in the minority for chooching 36mg strength but that's what I need.....I could live on 26 but i'd be using way way more, and I'm trying to keep this hobby or habit at a reasonable cost.

Ummm...Not true. I also vape 36mg. Vapables has it in flavourless and other limited flavours: Strength 36mg. There are also a few others who stock 36mg in flavourless, if you DIY at a lower flavour mix level. I used to buy Crystal Liquid - haven't tried his stuff since he moved south of the border (and because I have a stockpile).

I guess you never read his last sentence

Which part? The reasonable cost?

I was just referencing the fact that 36mg IS available in Canada, albeit at a limited selection.

... not in qty, nor at a reasonable price.

... not in qty, nor at a reasonable price.

Never said it was, just that it is available. Which is why I bought out Sean's stock at 50% off when he decided to move Crystal south of the border.

"peppermint double dipped in donkey piss"



Sorry . . . I just had to stop and laugh.

 

[Mike_1965]

Well now I look like the donkey! Today my order arrived (probably because I posted this message and someone, somewhere in the universe likes me to have egg on my face). The order was surely held up for some reason, but at least it came. Only CDN suppliers from now on for me (for juice anyway). That way I don't have to wonder where it is. Thanks to all who posted with suggestions and suppliers. Maybe Canada is still a free country...sometimes!

Vape on Lads! (and Lassies)

It surely can be nervewracking...I'm glad it got to you.
