New Spike to Canada

Okay everyone, I posted on the first of august about my problems with the border and my beloved Biotest products that contain yohimbine.

Well, surprise surprise, my new Spike got through, along with my Metabolic Drive, Surge, Power Drive and caffeine free Spike. I shipped with USPS and got my packcage a little over a week later (I was dumbfounded).

I took one, and bam, was I ever SPIKED. That is a powerful stimulant.

There is only one problem, my Dads love for Spike ended with him taking the entire package for his use. He did give me ten bucks for it so its ok.

That’s amazing news. When did this crackdown start on the Yohimbine HCL? I got a bottle of Carbolin 19 through about a month ago and shortly after I ordered 3 bottles of it and 4 bottles of the new Spike. I hope they don’t get siezed it was a lot of money.

I ordered some caffeine-free Spike and it arrived with no problem last week. I’m happy Biotest ships to Alberta again.

Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World.

Bdfone. Out.

Dont forget that customs doesn’t always check your package.

I used to think that the shipping fees were random. Then I found out that they are random – you get charged more if your package is inspected.

Our shipping charges are not related to whether Customs inspects packages. After all, we have no way of knowing when this will occur.

Yeah, I also received an order of the new Spike up here in ontario. However the package wasn’t inspected by customs, so who knows what would’ve happened if it was…

p.s. Spike is awesome, wrote my MCAT on the weekend, and it definitely helped me get through a test that lasted from like 8 am until 4:30 pm. Didn’t have to worry about the tiring out near the end of the test that most people complain about.

I think he was refering to charges when you get your package (import fees and the like). You have to pay these when you get your package.

Perhaps, but they are not shipping fees.

I checked with Canadian Border Services (or something like that) about this about six months ago. If you ship via USPS/Canada Post then the fees should only be $5 (unless the package is large/expensive, I forget the quantity but it was a resonable amount) plus GST/PST or HST. There are not supposed to be any duties on supplements if they were manufactured in the USA.
