Anyone one have any idea about shipping to USA on vape stuff

[Ruppy_bear]

I want to official see if I can help u guys. My friend had a store on taobao, but last November they step in close all vape products cuz of age restriction.

Now I know that overseas ppl still do mods, I was wondering how this would work and benefits all of us. My friend can get stuff and I want to know what’s the best/cheap/effective way for this to work.

I’m not banking on any high hopes, and I don’t want ended of thinking I’m a scammer. I’m honestly just want to help.

I just spent over $200 at 3fvape since last week. The issue is the shipping. I love that China gets new before USA but by the time it gets here most of it is available from the US sellers

make arrangements to send a few things here, and see how it goes. but, unless he has or can get some kind of business shipping account, i think the shipping is going to kill any hopes of selling here.

Shipping USPS will triple soon specially from China....

I wouldn't order anything from China at this time, things are too uncertain.

As an example of what the Right Honorable @MannyScoot refers to.....

Specto Jr. made the mistake (?) of telling me that he bought a Vaporesso NRG tank at a B&M for $45.
I accepted this information as a challenge and bought him an NRG tank and 2 NRG SE tanks from Sourcemore.com for $47.
I ordered on 4/14 and later that day received the tracking number. "That was quick."
Tracking system recognizes the number, but the package hasn't been listed as picked up by the carrier as of this morning 4/26.
Who knows when he'll finally get them.

Wait.....mistake?....did my son just "Tom Sawyer white picket fence" me for 3 new tanks?.....

Well what also happens is the China has very low cost shipping and some countries that also use DHL. Well our USPS has to deliver it all even DHL packages putting a lot of stress and loss of profit to USPS.

The next is Amazon and other large retailers where they ship millions of packages at a discounted rate using USPS, which at the end it cuts their profit.

Finally customs, how long will the package be in China at customs ? Then again in the United States at customs ?

It's becoming a pain in the ass, and ha ha thanks for the honorable mention.

Sounded like they pretty much got their asses handed to them the other day - raise rates or else.

 

[The Cromwell]

Yep the USPS is one govt entity that has to fully fund it's pensions and cannot run a defecit.

The days of cheap shipping in the US are coming to a close.
And well overdue. It always kind of pissed me off the corps got MUCH cheaper postage rates than I do.
Should be the same for everyone.
We will have to pay what it is worth.
Glad I do not need any more vape suff.

I got scared after buying something from Sourcemore and hearing the bad news about the shipping, so I ended up getting one of the things I ordered from a US place. I’m hoping it’ll get here but at least the payment was through PP, so we can get refunded.

Has anyone else ordered from SM lately and actually gotten their stuff?

 

[Jinx'd]

i just got a few things from 2FDeal. took about 2 weeks once it got in the mail.

i bought something from a guy about 1 1/2 hrs away from me, looks like usps has lost it.

Have you ever ordered from Sourcemore? I’ve never ordered from China and now I’m wondering if I should have.

 

[The Cromwell]

Everything is coming slow right now esp from China.

Remember not many flights from China and the Sampans take a while.
then too China seems to be suffering from another virus surge or multiple ones.

not them, but others. i think once said items get out the door, they are in the same boat. i just got an order that, once it got out their door, took 15 days. and another that just hit LA that looks to be about the same time. but, it could be weeks or more before they even get it out the door, varies a lot these days.

i told you, and someone else, weeks ago, that both of you should have ordered glass. and you's probably would have had it by now.

 

[Nailz]

I've done 3 orders with them in the last 2 months, and everyone has come in 2 weeks, but have heard others have had problems though, bit pot luck ordering from China at this time.

 

[The Cromwell]

I also think that sourcemore is a brokering type of place and acts kind of like an amazon or Aliexpress where you stuff you order does not actually come from them. Hence more hit and miss.

could be wrong on this though.

i dont know, seems like a pain but i was hoping this could help my friend out lol. i was hoping for a test dummy lol

At this point I’ll be happy if it gets here. It’s coming from two warehouses, one in HK and one in Shanzhen. But they had a couple things that I couldn’t find anywhere else.

Can you order from the US?
