Ok, just got my package through from bodybuilding.com.

I received...

2 x EAA STACK
1 x ANIMAL PAK
1 x ANIMAL FLEX
1 x ANIMAL PUMP
1 x ANIMAL NITRO
1 x MELATONIN

oh...and a seizure notice from UK customs saying they've taken away...

2 x TORRENT
1 x SHOCK THERAPY
1 x ANIMAL STACK 2

To say im pissed off is putting it lightly. No letter saying why they were confiscated, just a notice of seizure and a shitty leaflet explaining the things you cant import such as Food and plants.... and thats it, as they may be harbouring insects dangerous to our agriculture.

So what are the chances of, say, a black widow spider nesting in a tub of SHOCK THERAPY?

I wouldnt mind, but all the UK supplement stores sell the seized items!

Be careful and check your customs regulations for your country...

hey guys just wondering has anyone here who is from the uk ordered from the states and did they incur any custom charges at all? And where did you order from? From reading various forums some people have had custom charges when ordering from bodybuilding.com but when ordering from islandsupplements.com they havent incurred any.

regards infin

I ordered from bb.com last year. Customs seized 2 tubs of Torrent, 1 tub of Shock Therapy and a tin of Animal Stak. They left me with 2 EAA Stack, 1 Nitro, 1 Pak, 1 Flex and 1 Pump. Then later Fed-Ex informed me they required an extra £25 in custom charges. So be careful.
