Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 I have learned from bad experience to avoid DHL at all costs (and presumably other such companies). For eight years now I have been buying my vitamins/antioxidants on the internet from the US and having them shipped over here (Australia). Never had a problem with (Australian) Customs when using US Post but when the online store changed to using DHL my next two deliveries copped horrendous import duties and charges - well over half the cost of the goods!!! eg. $157 customs ripoff, sorry fees, on a $290 order........ :-( From what I found out it seems that using DHL I would always be hit with such charges so now I have my vitamins/antioxidants shipped to friends in the US (free ground delivery anyway in the US for the amount I order) and they then send them on to me using just US Post. Have now had several lots delivered that way since the DHL debacle with no problems or Customs charges. :-) comissionggarnier wrote: > Barbara, > > My LDN is shipped to me in France from NY.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 A company who handles shipping of goods all around the world using their own planes etc.. From my experience (and Joanne's too it would seem) it is far preferable to just use normal US Post to send stuff to other countries as that method seems far less likely to attract customs charges.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 DHL is the old AIRBORNE currier/package service that went out of business a few years back. From personal experience, I have had far less issues with the U.S. mail going and foreign mail coming in from a customs standpoint than with anything else whether it be UPS, FEDX, DHL, etc… Bruce Guilmette, Ph.D. Survive Cancer Foundation, Inc. http://www.survivecancer.net From: low dose naltrexone [mailto:low dose naltrexone ] On Behalf Of C Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2005 12:32 PM low dose naltrexone Subject: Re: [low dose naltrexone] Re: Shipping LDN From U.S. to Canada A company who handles shipping of goods all around the world using their own planes etc..
