Where can I buy B12 ampoules

[Silvershine]

I have purchased (in the past) my B12 Ampoules from Amazon Gernamy - they are no longer shipping to the UK. I don't have a PayPal account (someone compromised my account some years ago to the tune of £500!). Does anyone know where I can purchase some more B12 ampoules - my current supply is rapidly running out?

Bodfeld.de - bodfeld-apotheke.de/product...

According to their website they accept AmazonPay. If you have a UK amazon account with a credit/debit card linked to it then you should be able to use that. Although there have been reports that they will only ship to the UK after payment by bank transfer. This is as safe as paying by cheque (safer in fact).

Many thanks fbirder - i went to my "German" amazon account & was able to obtain my b12 ampoules from Amazon provider (apohealth) different to that of my last order provider (apo-discounter online pharmacy) who wouldn't deliver to UK

I would be careful when ordering through Amazon Germany - after ordering through Amazon Germany (I am a Prime Member) I have just been invoiced import fees £44.37 plus Brokerage Charges of £11.50 = Total £55.87. Delivery used UPS . I was only informed of this extra cost this morning by text message (from UPS) which I thought initially was a scam text. The message stated I could pay online or pay delivery driver direct.

I saw the delivery charges at the last stage of ordering/paying. It is annoying that I go through registering with the various companies I find selling what I want, only to find postal charges at the very end of the procedure

i got in touch with Bodfeld , and they told me that at the moment, Bank transfer was the only payment method available to U.K. buyers . I had asked them the reason , but they didn’t give any . I hope they reconsider this .

[Contralto in reply to fbirder]

I tried ordering twice last week. Having translated their emails using a website, Bodfeld said they accepted my orders and they would be despatched upon payment. I informed them there had been no payment option, but their replies were to phone their customer services. 🙃

Hi, I am searching to buy my own B12, and used the link above, but it is no longer working. Can anyone help please?

[wedgewood]

It al depends who is selling B12 ampoules through Amazon.de. Some them don’t sell to U.K. . You can always see who the supplier is . You alighted upon apohealth , and they do supply U.K. . You can also reach them direct at apohealth.de and you can get it in English by clicking on the American flag .

I’ve never heard of that happening . That’s more than outrageous ! It’s all to do with Brexit . I’ve has a delivery today from pharma24.de , but was disappointed to see that the use-by date is only 06.2022 . That’s not good as I ordered 100 ampoules . They are usually 2 years hence . I was charged €14.90 courier fees (DHL);I know that some German online pharmacies have been put off supplying the U.K. , because apparently they have to collect the VAT for U.K. tax authorities they also have to pay for the privilege of doing so .

That is certainly a new complication , and you were not warned about it happening . I hope that you can cancel the order . You should be able to as your were not warned about the extra costs involved .

Could it possibly be a scam?

[Silvershine in reply to wedgewood]

I did check if it was a scam - I got the tracking no from Amazon DE (a message was also posted that UPS had some "enquiries".) When I put the tracking no into the UPS website (as advised in the text) the charges then became clear with the option to pay online or pay cash to the driver. I chose to pay online (cash in short supply with lockdown). Once I had paid (I printed out the receipt) I received a further text (I presume to alert the delivery driver) that import fees had been paid BIENEN-APOTEKE LAIMER PLATZ MICHAE and that no further action was required

[Silvershine in reply to Silvershine]

Also checked my bank account - money paid to UPS

[wedgewood in reply to Silvershine]

Well this had never happened before . I’m . really shocked .Strangely , I remember that Bienen pharmacy as I used to live in Munich . I m really worried for PA patients who have to rely on self injecting to keep well . I once got into email correspondence with a German online pharmacy ,who told me that strictly speaking ,if they observed the rules , they were not allowed to supply the U.K. with B12 ampoules , because they are a prescription item here . German online pharmacies are not supposed to supply any prescription items to foreign countries for which that item requires a prescription in the home country , though they are an over the counter item in GermanyDon’t know what to do now , except press on and try to find a German online pharmacy that will supply . I received some today from pharma24 courier cost €14.90 , but delivered by Royal Mail . No exta costs , but 2 whopping customs forms attached ( because we are now not in the single EU market ) Use-by date was only 13 months instead of being over 2years from Bodfeld or versandapo . I’ve complained about that . It should be longer when one orders 100 ampoules .

[wedgewood in reply to Silvershine]

I, and other members have often ordered B12 depot with Amazon.de , and never had anything like this happen . It’s very odd.
