The Woes Of A Canadian Vaper

[NoizMaker]

Hey guys,

I have a bit of a rant here, not about Canada Post (for once) but this time it is about a juice I recently had the chance to try...

I won a contest at VapeTalk for some random juice (it ended up being Desert Ship.. which I still haven't tried lol) but I noticed in my package that there was another little surprise. A couple ml's of The Vanillaz!

DigitaCiggz The Vanillaz (50% VG/ 50% PG)

I opened the bottle and gave the juice a smell. WOW, it smells good enough to eat right out of the bottle! (not recommended, lol)

I cleaned and primed a Cisco LR 306 and did a few test vapes and I fell in love with this juice. It is very sweet with a strong overtone of vanilla and graham cracker. It has an almost creamy texture to it and it is hands down one of the best juices I have ever tried. This would easily be my new ADV...

BUT, (and there's always a but for us Canucks isn't there?)

DigitalCiggz doesn't ship outside of the US , not sure if that is because of the politics involved or what but it clearly states US only.

This isn't really a big deal, just one of the frustrating parts of being a vaper in Canadaland I suppose. If I could order this juice, I would be placing a rather sizable order right away because it is just too good.


So I suppose I will end off by saying DigitalCiggz The Vanillaz is AWESOME but what's not so awesome is I can't have it

Vape on guys.

PS: I feel a little better now, lmfao

If it's something you must have, I'm sure an American could order it for you then ship it to you provided you cover the extra shipping costs.

I agree, that is a possibility but it does seem like a lot of chance and hassle to get a shipment of juice. I am just more or less ranting for the sake of ranting TBH, lol, dunno what else to do with the experience.

I'm with ya Noiz... i've been wanting to try several of the DC juices for some time.

I learned from the guys at DC that it's too much of a hassle so they just don't ship here. They WILL ship here for orders $150+... yea $150.. so unless we get a big group order we won't have much of a chance.

I'm looking into having an american friend do the order for me. Unless we have a bunch of ppl here wanting to do a group order.....

Well the fees involved for me to make the payment are rather sizable from my memory but I would be more than willing to go in on one of these. Seems like they have a good stock too.

A friend of mine has a drop box in Niagara Falls (US side). He goes for weekends at a time, every other week.

I could run it by him and if he gives the ok, we could put a large order in, and I'd go with my friend to pick it up once it's arrived. No promises, but worth a check. Then everyone can just EMT the cash for their order to me and I'd put the large order in on my account.

If anyone would be interested in this, let me know. If there's enough people, I'll ask to use his DB.

It would either require a meet up or I can mail it out to you once Canada side.

 

[NoizMaker]

I'll PM you and we can maybe work something out, I know I am willing for sure.

On the Vancouver side of the country I do something similar and use a shipping agent in Blaine, WA. Whats nice about that is I just use my name and their address as the shipping address wich is good for places that wont ship to po boxes. Then I just go there, say my name and pay $3 per package. The bummer is that you have to claim it all as stuff bought while down there. Canadian customs may charge you taxes for it on the way back in to canada.

There's a few interesting sounding juices also, and the vanillaz sound yumm....

If your short on numbers, I'd be interested in getting in on a multi order. And I'd have no prob paying extra for the inter Canada mailing for the experience. Just let me know if you need participants.

VapeOn,

Good old Hagen's of Blaine? That place is awesome - so many eBay sellers won't ship to Canada either, have had a lot of luck buying things on the cheap from ebay.com and having them shipped to Blaine for pickup.

I worry about Customs though.. I don't think I'd dare bring across e-cigarette stuff personally. When I go across I do take my eGo-T with me, as I can easily get another one from NicFitNation if it gets seized, but the GG and Phidias stay at home.

Perhaps pick up your package in the States, then post it to your house in Canada? That way it's not "on you" when you cross the border.. that sounds like an awful lot of bother though, and they may wonder why you're mailing stuff to yourself..

Just did a quick search and found on this URL USA mail & parcel forwarding service? - RedFlagDeals.com Forums which mentions a US mail forwarding service - have the package shipped to them, and they'll forward it to you for the cost of postage and a handling fee..
