It appears that, for reasons which remain unexplained after contacting support, Gearbest no longer ships mods or tanks to Canada.
Vaporl will ship to Canada but only by courier at $20 a pop.

Wow that sucks! I've bought lots of great mods from GearBest.

But we still have eFun.top and FT (for now!). Wonder why this is happening with various Chinese retailers? It's not like vaping is illegal here or something :crazy:

Thanks for the heads up @chuck333!

Very interesting and I also hope it doesn't go this way with FT. Cheap shipping to Canada is hard to find. If I hear anything I'll update this thread.

I think it's because shipping is unreliable. One guy gets the parcel in a week while the next guy waits two months. They're plagued by complaints from people who have picked the free shipping. I always pay the little extra for the upgraded shipping and find I get the items in a reasonable amount of time usually Then again it might have something to do with our postal strikes and that they don't want to deal with our problems. We'll see.

I'm hoping it's something like that and that FT doesn't go that way. I've bought a lot of stuff from them and always use the Canadian ship option. It's been reasonably quick the last while and quite dependable. I ordered a few tanks from a US supplier the other day. It was $24 for 5 tanks and $24 for shipping. I really wanted 4 of the tanks so I considered it a good buy, but those kind of shipping costs just suck. Time will tell.

It's the customs and lunatic postal-service.. Our USPS is "bad", but they don't hold a candle to canada.

Coming FROM canada, our customs is a clusterfuck, and USPS are rapists.

Well, guess I won't be ordering from them then unless under exceptional circumstances. Shame.

Yeah they won’t ship anything to Canada, no coils, no wires, nothing. Disappointing.
