US customs question

[justingbbragg]

Hey everyone,
I live in Canada, and ordered a new provari from the US. This is my first time buying from outside of Canada. Anyone ever run into any problems with customs taking there things or can i expect any extra fees? the package has no e-juice or nic containing products
thanks.

Well I can tell you right now, I am deployed and whenever i order stuff from like viper-vape or mtbaker or nicquid it TAKES A WHILE for it to get to me, besides that I have never had ANY problem with it being opened or destroyed or anything, understand the concern though seeing as the provari is one expensive peice of equipment.

I'm kind of new to this ( first post) but am also interested in problems experienced bringing things into Canada, including e juice, are there problems having it mailed?

No worries getting gear from the US into Canada. There will be no duty and because you have no juice or batteries, it should pass customs in about an hour.

I've ordered from several places, not ProVape though, and had zero problems. It's also quick - about a week to get things from IBTanked or Reosmods.

Now, when it comes to batteries there is no advantage to ordering from the US and you might find customs has an issue (they're considered a dangerous item).

With juice, I've not heard of anyone having a shipment seized, but with Jugheads here in Canada, why would you need to go anywhere else? Many US juices are available from several Canadian vendors (Gentlemen's Reserve, for example).

Bottom line - no problem getting gear from the US, maybe skip getting batteries that way, slight risk for juice (but no real reason to do that).

My shippment does have 2 18650 batteries in it. How worried should I be?
