    Hey guys, unfortunately due to some restrictions here in Australia and Customs, some products cant be shipped down here (i know it sucks ay!)

    Proteins cant be shipped because they are dairy products and as such arnt allowed through customs.

    Some other products which contain ingredients that arnt allowed to be sold or distributed in Australia also cant be shipped.

    bb.com have done a decent job in controlling this by telling you at checkout that they cant ship the item to you.

    Granted, there are still MANY products we can buy and get shipped through bb.com. I use them regularly and always receive my products within 2-5 days. I actually received an order yesterday i placed last thursday. (fantastic service).

    For us Aussies, the tips are, stick to the products that are allowed to be shipped.

    - Pre Workouts
    - Amino acids
    - Intra workouts
    - Creatine
    - Creatine mixes
    - Multi Vitamins
    - Fish oils

    etc. Granted there will be some exceptions like SizeOn which contains protein so that wont ship.

    Second tip;

    ALWAYS choose express courier shipping. You will receive a tracking number and the nice guys at bb.com and Fedex will get your package to you in no time.



    Hope this helps !

    I bought Purple Wrath (BCAA's) and it took a month because it was held up in customs. At least I finally got it though. Saved like $50 compared to GNC stores.

    If you're planning on purchasing anything, expect that it will take at least a month to receive because it WILL get held up at customs.

    It may just end up on the show Boarder Patrol, LOL.
