Congratulations Gill2009 for being our first contest winner! Contest theme- Guess how many bottles of e-juice mt baker vapor sold on average per day from 1/1/2014 - 10/31/2014. Happy guessing! It was wonderful to win the prize mtbakervapor...but unfortunately I cannot afford the nearly £18 customs charge which I received by letter today...so I suspect it will be winging its way back to you  Bloody hell |

I didn't know that was going to happen. Crazy! I would be happy to put a credit on your MBV account for the equivalent in US for future orders. Unfortunately, there's no way for me to take care of it any other way. Let me know if that will help. |

My personal experience of ordering from the US in recent years, is that I've always been hit by excess charges and RM's handling fee on top. Something that mtbakervapor I guess hadn't accounted for. |

As these were prizes, maybe the best thing mtbakervapor could have done was to mark them as a gift? |

I * think * ( in theory ) you can only do that if it's a package sent from one private individual to another Chrissie, flavourtank. Customs do seem to take a stricter line with goods from the US in comparison to other overseas countries. |
