Hi Pix - sorry for not answering sooner.
As it happens - I didn't know about the 3 month restriction on personal vitamins. In regards to importing BB, I was more concerned about the product itself - seeing as it contains bovine ovary and Australia's extensive restrictions on everything food and beef related. I had, in fact, sent two emails to customs in regard to this but received no reply, so I kept the emails as proof and ordered the product!
My next concern was to get as much as I could for as little as I could, which means I ordered the 13 months supply. Risky, I know. I thought, the worst that could happen is that they send it back to BB and then I'd have to pay the restocking fee ($80.00 I think). Actually, that was not the worst thing - the worst thing is that customs confiscates it and I lose my BB and my money! Tried not to dwell on that one though and pretended that if I lost my $700 then, hey!, it's only money!! :s
I just felt I would have a better chance of gaining and then keeping any gains due to the length of time on the product.
I received my parcel a few weeks later, which was physically smaller that I imagined it would be. But everything was there. (customs did not even open to check it! - must have been an off day). Waiting was murder though - I honestly thought they might not let it through. Perhaps the efficient way it was packed also helped not arouse any suspicions with customs in regard to quantities. Who knows.
Thinking about the 3 months personal supply requirement, customs would not be aware of how much of a product you would be taking - so they'd have to be a bit generous on that score. Not everyone takes the recommended dosages of things.
I have used 6 months of the product - but am giving it a rest atm as I think more research is needed on my part in regards to why it hasn't worked for me. I feel sad that I've lost 6 months of potential growth - which also equates to lost money! But if I ever figure out why it didn't work - I'd have to reorder to make sure I was on the product long enough for the results to stick. For now I'm just sticking to my Noogleberry.
Hope everything goes well for you though Pix.
