1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Ordered diy ejuice supplies from e-cig based out of China... Though it shipped from their sister company out of Cali. Of course shipped quickly with limited shipping options via dhl with proper labelling of flavouring... Got hijacked and destroyed by customs.

    Anything in there other than food flavourings?

    And NEVER ship with DHL FedEx or priority shipping. Nearly always checked closely for value, at least, to impose import tax.

    Oh yea... Pgvg 50 50 12 mg

    Yea I know but I gave it a shot. I read here well prior trying but didn't listen well.. Alas 150 usd flushed.. Grr

    Not giving up .. Owned a vape store in the states and business was swell. Was hoping to do a lil something from home for extra income while I raise my wee one.

    I have taken a loss but not defeated. My pops back home is going to help with supplies in small packaging .. Relabelled and sent snail mail. Of course labelled properly and as a gift!

    :welcome:
    Sorry to hear that your stuff got knicked...the BiB can be a real PIA...
    You might have a look here (unless they were the orig. supplier). Always good to talk with them about shipping before you order. ;)

    +1 for Hiliq - just select EMS when checking out - never had a problem ordering up to 280ml at a time.

    Doesn't look good, going out for delivery directly from LAK SI. I would say it has been delivered to customs. Where did it come from?

    Do you live near that particular PO (it's up near the old airport)? Whose name is shown as the recipient?

    Just checked with my girlfriend...it's been delivered to Customs as the contents are e-cig related. :(

    Sorry mate...looks like there's a general crackdown happening.

    The only way would be to go there in person.

    If they are only holding it for tax you can go pay it and collect it. BUT if they have confiscated it as illegal goods that is a different matter as far as I am concerned
