Why Don't half of US E-Juice Vendors ship Overseas?

[Deadkaiser]

So i'm starting to lose why wont US vendors take my money??

It usually goes something like this after a weeks of looking around for something new to try i find a few new ejuice vendors with great reviews and recommendations on ECF and across the net so I get on ECF see what juices they have that are worth buying (best way i've found as pretty much every ejuice on all the vendor sites are rated 5/5 strangely lol) After reading through recommendations and much hemming and hawing i select 5-10 things to try, Create an account fill in all those 101 details try and give them my money and then there like NO sorry we will not ship to you we barley trust a Canadian credit card so Nope to the rest of the world!

After doing this half a dozen times I now try and check to see if they will ship international but a large proportion don't bother to say so the irritating process repeats it self.

My Question is WHY

That might be changing. If the new FDA rules stick most flavors will disappear from the US market but it will still be legal for US juice makers to produce any liquids with any flaors so long as they are for export only. The e liquid makers in the US with good offshore business might survive the FDA firing squad.

Not sure but if you included where you were trying to get the juice shipped to, other ECF members from that country might chime in with their experiences.

Most of it will die if the FDA come around in full I reckon the USA consumes the most vape products atm if the regs are enforced like any industry with a large proportion of its market removed the industry will go into recession and die as a lot of business will go broke...... so i doubt that will help me IMO probably most of the ejuice companies i love will close as doubt many would be willing to go off shore or have enough profits to keep open without there largest market ......i guess at least if they move out of the USA they will be forced pretty much to do international shipping lol but that would be an unfortunate outcome.......imo both side are blind to the truth so don't get me started

But that does not really answer the question

The Canadian Border Services will confiscate all ejuice shipments containing nicotine at the border and destroy it. I would assume that many US vendors don't need the hassle of unhappy customers that had shipments stopped at the border (customer 100% at fault) that want their juice and/or money back.

I wouldn't ship to Canada if I owned a ejuice company in the US.

I understand you are allowed to bring a limited amount of ejuice across the border in person, so maybe look at a US PO box near the border?

I travel to the U.S. a lot and always have juice shipped to my hotel. I don't really go out of my way to declare the juice, but have been asked what the little bottles in my luggage were. I answered that it was ejuice for personal consumption and I was waved thru.

Wow didnt know Canada was so rough when it comes to ejuice which sort of explains why they will not ship to Canada and i believe Austria and Brazil and Malaysia also have strict laws on ejuice/cigs and i know the US in not renowned for it's geographical understanding of the world i guess you already have to many states to remember but there is a lot of other countries out there...... for the record i live in Australia which has no problem with imports for private consumption but nationality was not really the point because the stance on international shipping has no bearing on ones nationality.....

If i believe the DIY guys ejuice shops must be making pretty health profits on every ml they sell is it just they make more than enough $ so they cant be bothered to setup international shipping?

Hey Dead, what places have you had trouble with? I've ordered from around 100 different vendors in the US and they have shipped, though I have come across many that don't. Also, I have contacted some of them directly and they have been happy to ship.

Hey Vapntime
some of the latest
Ohm's Vapes

Verde Valley Vapes

There was a few more but i just got a new pc and lost all my bookmarks ohms vapes might have changes since they said they were going to start some time in a surprising email reply should give them another go....

Maybe i just manage to find all the ones that don't ship internationally
I dont want this to be a whine about things thread just wanted to know if there was a reason!

 

[Vapntime]

Yea I've looked at those myself, haven't contacted them though. Definitely worth emailing them again I have had good luck with quite a few. I have been using these two for awhile good juice, good price.

Oasis vape was one I nearly had good luck with but right at the last minute they decided they didn't want to change the defaults with their third party credit card company (payment) so as to allow o/s credit transactions. I think this is one reason some vendors won't ship o/s.

Yer always wanted to buy from VVS but there shipping is a bit steep for my liking found my self trying to order from them again (keep forgetting why i dont order lol) a week or so ago and the wanted $50 for shipping on a few 10ml bottles which was a bit much imo
cheers for the heads up on blovape placed a order just then not much of a range but i hate choosing anyway lol and that checkout wow first time i've been impressed by a checkout lol

 

[Vapntime]

Check VVS again. I got him to put standard postage on $13 or so.

EDIT: Damn he must of changed it back, I will contact him. I will let you know.
