I wanted to post a follow up to this discussion. Recently I heard a rumor that iHerb.com was now offering free shipping to China. I just purchased a bunch of stuff today and I can confirm on this. Basically if you spend $40.00+ on their site, you get free shipping up to 10 pounds. Or if your like me and have 20 pounds of stuff in your cart, 2 orders at $40.00 each gives you 20 pounds of stuff shipped free to China. A classmate of mine just used this last week and reported that it took 1 week to get his items. You may have to pay custom’s fees depending on how much stuff you buy. For all of my fellow health nuts, this should be a helpful post. Also for our Chinese friends, you can use Alipay, wechat, tenpay, paypal and several credit cards to process your order. The site has Chinese as an option as well.
If your a first time shopper, you get $5.00 off your first order by using my reference code CAD962. This is similar to uber’s promo where both of us get a $5.00 credit 🙂
