An Aussie in need of help

Am I able to chose between using FedEX or USP International when getting stuff shipped out to Australia? Or is my only option FedEX ?

You can use either. The great thing about fed ex is, if customs holds your order, or if another problem arises, they will call us and the customer, and try to get it straightened out.

I know yohimbine is a prohibited substance, so I can't access Atro-Phex by BSN & a few other things (RedLine)


Thanks for your help guys! I think what I'll do is only buy stuff I can get here in Australia, surprisingly it's cheaper to get stuff from the US than from the shops here ah ha ha

Unfortunately that theory doesn't always work mate . Incoming pm in regards to helpful hints.

I use the cheapest USP option by the way - just try to keep costs down. Always got through, gets to Perth in around about 8-10 working days. Pretty damn good

Of the many times I've ordered what i have discovered is that if you use UPS EMS or the fed ex express, there is less of a chance of the goods being inspected. Not sure whey, but that's how it's worked for me. Pick USPS Priority 10 days delivery, and it will be inspected everytime. EMS is a bit more expensive than Priority, but worth it.

Oh and using EMS, I've got yohim through everytime, and other stuff, so far that is...we shall see with the next 6 bottle shipment of Napalm!

I haven't had any problems with USPS or fedex.

USPS is the cheaper one though, I would go with that, especially if you don't have any questionable ingredients.

Good to know mate! Maybe I am just unlucky, 2 of my last 3 orders have been inspected by customs ( didn't order anything dodgy though so all good)

Luck comes into it for sure LOL. Have u ordered EMS when they've been inspected?

Now that I think about it, I have an EMS package from NP due early this week with Leviathan, hope they don't notice the yohimbine, dohhhhhhhh

No I've only ever used the cheapest option ( that's priority isn't it?). I'm not usually in a rush but didn't consider if different options from the same service had a greater chance of being inspected or not. I was however under the impression that UPS got inspected less than FEDEX in general.

Good luck with the Leviathan - that looks like a great product. Wouldn't mind running that one day myself

Well, the whole box got delivered today, in 3 business days, Leviathan and all hehe. Of course I wasn't here for the delivery so I have to get someone to pick it up for me tomorrow.

So as I said, just got USPS EMS!
