Hi there I wonder if any of you Europeans could help me? Anyone found a good US company for shipping at reasonable costs! protein powder and dextrose both of which are vERY expensive in France!! For your info just discovered this week that its illegal to sell Flax oil in France (as its not good for you at high temperatures!!)
thanks for any help

I just found that out about Flax in France, too... still chuckling over that.
I had friends in Sweden for a couple of years that ordered from the US but the shipping was very expensive. They ordered twice a year and spent several hundred dollars to avoid to many shipping charges.
Bulk Nutrition (http://www.bulknutrition.com/?page=ordering) will ship internationally but realize that you need to what you can and cannot order in your country. It could get confiscated and then you are out the cash. A number of Canadians I know have experienced this so do your homework.
Personally though, I know of no supplement worth the extra charges of international shipping, custom fees, etc. from the US to most countries. If you can't find it locally or online in Europe you're probably better off saving the money.

Thanks Hort I will check out this website... but i think you are right the postage costs prbably make it too expensive... i looked into posting dextrose from the UK to France and it was exorbitant!!
fortunately have decided to only use protein powder and dextrose so won't have to worry about "the rest" :)
