Hey, just curious if there are any online or stone/mason shops that you distribute cissus out to in canada. Just got my order that i already had paid 9.50 US shipping on and got billed another 22.28 CAD at the door for import charges! :(

Just wondering if there is a cheaper way.
 
Try bb.com I think they have distribution center out of Canada. Well at least they have canada post as a shipping method. You might save a few pennies.
 
The order was just one bottle of cissus, Just trying it out, if i had known customs would have raped me i would have ordered more.
So yea the order was 23.95 us for the cissus and for shipping it was 9.60 us (from a board sponsor) then another 22.28 CAD for import charges by ups. So shipping ws much more then the product itself. Im so angry, good time to go hit the ol punching bag!

Yeah dude, thats just it aslong as they use the postal service we wouldnt get these damn fee's $$
 
The problem wasn't with customs itself, but rather the bloody ridiculous brokerage fees that UPS charges Canadians for bringing stuff across the border. I've been burned by UPS enough times that I refuse to order from any site that doesn't allow for other shipping options. Next time you order something from the states specify a different delivery service, whether it be fedex, purolator, or USPS (cheapest but riskiest), and you'll save the astronomical fees that UPS fattens their bank account with.

Bang on there Max, I believe that Fedex has been the most reasonable for me...the brokerage fees were not bad at all.

Man that sucks, I ordered from Sam at Nutraplanet and the service was A1 :D

i'd order from him but for some reason my computer won't let me go to certain sites right now his being one of them i gotta get it looked at, it just won't load same with 1fast and a couple others.
 
I have had no problems with usps. An yes they are cheap. I've ordered halodrol and tdrive from island and all my research chems come usps.


Ask bb.com before ordering where it will be shipped from.
Canada post DOES suck, they charge me MORE to ship items within Canada than it does to ship the same item to the USA.

DHL has been very slow for myself when I've ordered USP Labs products directly from the website. I've typically waited 3weeks and more before receiving my orders. I've always eventually received my order, but delivery times could certainly be improved.

It really seems that certain sites have been flagged by Canada customs for shipping stuff that's not legal for import into Canada. I don't bother with bb.com or 1 fast anymore because it always seemed that customs was going over every order I made from these sites with a magnifying glass, and anything they deemed even remotely close to illegal here would be denied entry. I had plenty of times where it would be months after placing an order from a supplier, and I would then receive notice of the shipment being denied entry. By the time I tried to get things sorted out and have the denied package sent back, chances were better than not that the package had already been destroyed. There are few things more frustrating than seeing you money get flushed down the drain in this fashion.
 
This whole boarder fiasco sucks. And im guessing USP does not have a canadian distributer...so which trusted supplement store has been the best? Actually i guess it is just a matter of shipping method's so USPS is the cheapest, and i just need to make sure the supp store isnt flagged. Great...

Did you ever try buying it in bulk powder?
 
nah , this is my first go at it, ive got some bad joints, bad shoulder bad knee, bad hip haha, which all inhibit some of my progress, so i wanted to give cissus a go. If i like the turnout i will grab some more, im taking 6 caps a day so ill see how it goes.
Would the bulk powder be the same grade thou? lol maybe this shouldnt be discussed on the usp forum haha.

Probably as good I dunno, but it's not capped. I want to try some of this stuff to but will wait for a bit. Everyone seems to really like the usp stuff.

Yea man its been getting good reviews, and if it does what i would like it to do , ill be down on it monthly. It was only 23.95 for 130 caps a 21 days supply at 6 a day. Its just too damn expensive to get over here, and it really shouldnt be!

I should have ordered two bottles.:blink:
 
heh f-that


Federal Express Federal Express (International Priority)$32.51

Federal Express Federal Express (International Economy) $29.82

United States Postal Service United States Postal Service (Airmail Parcel Post) $15.00

and it says airmail parcel post can take up to 60 days. Wtf
 
I'm going to try some bulk from planetary. I got a $10 coupon for writing 5 reviews plus u get 10% off with aminds dicount it works out to a cost of about $5.00 for 100grams. Plus $9 for shipping.
