Check out Boots, Freshwood Aftershave Balm. Odorless and you need very little.

Yes same problem I received a message to say that the order had been cancelled because of excessive delays but that I could reorder with another shipper. I have done that and using Post Plus delivery now between 18 Feb and 2 March ( I hope) - also got a $5.50 discount from the original order
I am pleased to report that the vitamins arrived today. they were sent on Jan 13 and were estimated between Feb 16 - 26.
So a very speedy shipment as I said above I used Post Plus but the box stated Deutsche Post, and interestingly the label gave the value as $9.10 whilst the purchase cost was $50 and shipping $15 so a win win situation

The IHerb Post Plus leaves the USA via DHL eCommerce to Frankfurt per my experience. Every shipment I've done takes this route rather than over the Pacific. Seems more efficient and quicker.

Another order from iHerb arrived without a hitch this week - less than 3 weeks shipping time (which is almost as long as it can take to get stuff from Lazada at times).

Another big thumbs up for iHerb. Order placed on Feb. 21, delivered today. That's almost faster than Kerry :duck:

Absolutely agree as I have had 3 parcels delivered with speed over the last 3 weeks.
Also no postage charge for the last two items and never a customs charge at this end

Hi, :thumb:

We have used Piping Rock in the past for certain supplements without any problem shipping to Thailand.

Tried this morning to order some more, but it looks like they no longer ship to Thailand?

They claim to ship to more than 160 countries, however Thailand does not come up in the "drop down" bar?

Has anyone used Piping Rock recently and successfully shipped to Thailand?

Thanks

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

I suggest you try iherb.com

I have used them for the past 3 years and excellent from USA to Thailand - recent shipment took 7 days

I've been buying monthly from iHerb for most of this year, and the typical delivery time for me has been about 7 or 8 days also.

However, this month the deliveries are significantly slower. I noticed in the order tracking that this month my orders are being delivered from LA to BKK via Doha, whereas in the past it had been LA to BKK via SG, so this change in transhipment location seems to have slowed the delivery times. Hopefully, the current delays are only temporary.

So how long did it take?

Cytomel and Synthroid

Post by DDD »

Trying to order Cytomel and Synthroid (T3 and T4 replacements for thyroid) into Thailand. The US, Canada and Norway prescribe it (made by Pfizer). Not Thailand though. Found a couple companies in US and Canada that ship it. Also something in Singapore. Anyone had it shipped here?

If anyone orders from IHerb now that the 1,500 Baht exemption has ended and VAT is payable on all orders, please let us know if IHerb calculates and collects the VAT from you when ordering. Or, if they make the consignee pay it upon product arrival? Thanks. :cheers:

iHerb has since been adding in the VAT upfront, so you pay an all-in price and Flash Express can delivery direct to your door without having to collect the charges on delivery.
