I would think that accessories would be OK, but the usual restricted stuff would not be allowed for import.

*BTW: I've been to their store in LA, it's pretty huge and lots of people working there. It's like walking into a Walmart, and it's all stocked with airsoft goods!

What are you ordering? If it's restricted then NO if it's not then go for it.

byblos · August 25th, 2008, 19:45

i listed what i would like to order. seems safe to me though, all i am worried about is the mag (but it is not a fake cartridge.. so i should be ok). i just need some assurance.

panda86 · August 25th, 2008, 19:47

Looking at your list, I would think it would be OK. The mags should be OK too

I've had horrible trouble with Evike.com and woudn't recommend them. Their server messed up my order, they then claimed I hadn't paid (despite my PayPal receipt to the contrary), ignored all emails, unreachable by phone.

Took several weeks to sort out and only AFTER I got both VISA and PayPal involved (they'd initially completely ignored my PayPal dispute).

YMMV (I'd had an ok order with them before that), but I'd recommend finding a different company to order from if you can. The few dollars you'll save on Evike aren't worth the potential hassle if something goes wrong.

your right drake, i should probably stay within canada. i should wait till i am able to check out the Classified (i got verified just waiting on admin to add me in =P )

Drake · August 25th, 2008, 19:54

Even without having to stay into Canada, I'd just avoid Evike. AirsoftGI seems fine, and I recently ordered from SpeedyToys without any trouble either (except they'd only ship via those UPS crooks but that's a different story).

Personally I've had an excellent shopping experience with Redwolfairsoft.com. 1 week shipping at my door from China. Good times, and low prices.

TokyoSeven · August 25th, 2008, 20:09

I find Evikes shippping quotes unreasonable and I hear their customer services terrible at best. Feel free to order your items from another retailer outside the country. As Drake said, AirsoftGI is an option or perhaps even airsoft global, Ive had good experiences with airsoft global.

Drake · August 25th, 2008, 20:11

+1 Redwolf, they're top notch.

Airsoftparts has also always been top notch for me (placed about a half dozen orders so far)

and eHobby, although their selection is more limited.

byblos · August 25th, 2008, 20:14

i have ordered from airsoftparts.ca, AWESOME shipping, ordered on wed got it on friday. no problems, but they dont have half the items im looking for =\

panda86 · August 25th, 2008, 20:31

Buy what you can at airsoftparts.ca, the rest with E-hobby

I've ordered many times from EHobby and only had 1 screw up. I'd definitely lean heavily on ordering from them.

Muffin · August 25th, 2008, 21:03

I've had really got experiences with: Redwolf, eHobby, and Trinity.
eHobby does seem to have their ups and downs though. It's been twice now that they've sent me something that I didn't order. In fact, I just got an ACU molle pouch today randomly, with some other guys name on the item.
I highly reccomend redwolf for their fast shipping and great prices.
