Well, now I at least know what happened to my original order. I'm fuming mad (so mad that I just got off the phone with DP and was in tears over this). I just received a notice from US Customs and they have seized my shipment. I only ordered 900 pills and Lenore said that a large shipment can be a red flag. Has anybody else ordered this much and actually received their order? I ordered this and had it shipped the cheaper way that takes 10-14 days. I called Global Drug and they re-sent it and I went the more expensive shipping method (with a tracking #) and it has already cleared US Customs (that was WAY fast!) and I should probably have it tomorrow or the next day.

I just wonder why one was seized and the other one wasn't? I cried when I got this letter from US Customs today, but was happy to see my next order went through and is here!! I also called Louden's Pharmacy in Capitola, CA and they can send it to me but it's $65/100 20 mg caps!! YIKES!!!!!!!!! I guess I can go that route or continue to take a chance with Global Drug. Anybody have any thoughts?

My luck is horrible. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Oh, but I also wanted to add that Global Drug was great and sent me the 2nd shipment at no charge, but I upgraded my shipping method, so it only cost an extra $25. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm so sorry you have had problems. At least it is cleared and on it's way. I have ordered twice, both big amounts and never had any issues...knock on wood for my next order. You will soon be on your way to making some good mommy milk. It is very expensive to order from a compounding pharmacy. Wish it was cheaper. We have one in Oregon who compounds but very spendy!!!

All the best to you!!

I would have to say that I had luck with Global Drug with no problem. I ordered around 700 pills and received it in a very timely matter. I can not remember exactly what shipment method I used, but I did use one of the more expensive kind, but not the most expensive.

I am glad that they worked with you and you were able to get your next shipment.

AHHHH that stinks. I have ordered 1800 pills before and I didnt have a problem either. I am so sorry yours got stopped. Cant us nursing moms get a break? Im glad to hear the other order went through OK. You know I do have 800 pills for sale (check out the for sale thread). Only one person has contacted me and I havent heard back from her. If anyone is intrested. At least you dont have to worry about customs.

Thanks everybody! I'm so excited because my 2nd order arrived TODAY!!!! I wasn't expecting it until at least next week. They mailed it on Sunday (Monday their time) and I got it on Thursday! FOUR DAYS!! WOOOHOOOO!! They were really great about re-sending it. I guess my package just happened to be the one picked out, but at least order #2 came through ok.

Julie,thanks for your offer on the dom. I should be set for a little over 3 months for now. Maybe somebody who absolutely is in desperate need can use those!!
