WARNING: Fibroboost and/or BroccoMax Quarantine Fee in Australia

Normally I purchase everything from Swansonvitamins as they arrive in Australia without a problem but purchasing the abovementioned products resulted in IHerb's courier, DHL charging $47.30 for a quarantine processing fee.

I find this outrageous and I simply won't buy anything from IHerb ever again.

Has any Aussie or other non-USA resident had a similar experience?

Hey mate,

Another Aussie here. I have ordered from IHerb 4 times. 3 of those orders contained Fibroboost. I never had any other DHL 'quarantine' charge. Sounds ridiculous to me.

cheers

Well then, is it the BroccoMax that came, with it? How can it be when I order greens and a lower dosage of BroccoMax from Swansonvitamins? I order all sorts of other things from them as well.

The only reason I ordered from there was because Swansons discontinued Ecklonia Kava, which I used, however they seem to have Fibroboost, which as we all know is ecklonia kava.

Or is it just gross incompetence either at DHL's part or the government's part? I think they arrived extra quick as well, so one wonders what sort of quarantine was it anyway?

I never ship by DHL since the iherb worldwide flatrate $4 shipping beats it by a mile and usps dont charge any additional fees.
