time to order more stuff

Recommended Posts

with the NZ dollar being very strong right I've decided to take advantage and purchase more stuff from overseas

Currently I am low-ish on protein (got half a tub of the scifit chocolate protein at work (which btw is a great protein) , 1/5 of a tub of myfusion chocolate at home and an unopened tub of myofusion chocolate that looks like Gaspari might of dragon punched it before sending it to me)

Thinking of getting

Bulk DAA

bioforge (always read amazing reviews about it, want to give it a go at some stage+some other test booster )

protein (I myofusion banana and chocolate mint look good, but I am also keen on trying Xtreme formulation's stuff)

multi vitamin (perhaps Anavite and optimen, was thinking of getting orange triad at some stage too since my knee is starting to play up again)

im good on creatine as I have a 1kg tub at home of creatine mono

might get a couple of fat burners too (Spirodex +alpha t2 + lean xtreme)

that looks about it (apart from the random bars that I'll order, so pretty much just an order that would suss me out for the next few months before I have to buy other goodies....or do you think this is a bit of an overkill right here?

please note that you will now be paying gst on all international orders over 50$ (that is including shipping) and some other charges which can really bump up the price and make it to put it mildly F^&kin Annoying!

:-s Yeah, since when? I've made 4 international orders in the past month with no customs duty charged, and all of the orders I made cost over $100 NZD incl shipping each.

Or do you mean the threshold at which GST/Duty is charged, is when it amounts to $50 or more? Because that's been the case for a while now, if the GST/Duty on a shipment comes to less than $50, they waive it. I can't remember the exact number, but you (generally, depending on the item(s)) have to spend more than a few hundred bucks to get over the threshold. The threshold will be slightly lower (I'd imagine) these days after the GST increase.

had a chat to a co-worker who's into skiing and like me keeps an eye on the NZ $ , he made an order 3 weeks ago worth about 350 NZD and didn't get charged either, so I might take the risk and do so too, will let you all know if I do/don't get charged.

question is Nutraplanet Vs BB.com (bb.com never failed me, but nutra does offer to ship stuff bb won't)

It's up to you whether you want to take the risk that things may get stripped.

Of the past 4 shipments I've had in from BB.com, 1 was checked by customs (had a note inside saying "This has been checked by Customs NZ"). I've had things stripped in the past (back when they used to ship anything) which isn't pleasant when opening the package, but as I said, it's up to you to take that gamble :shrug:

yup that's the one I obviously got it wrong I thought it was for everything that was over 50 nzd!
