Deal resubmitted. You can only see the deal at the checkout page and when you have something in your cart. This deal is linked to the checkout page.

1) From Iherb:

"Jan 2013- New discount for orders over $60.00!
UP to 95% off DHL published rates!

January 2013 - DHL Challenge: The shipping company DHL has offered us a new set of discounts for Australia. However, to continue to offer these low rates, we must double our volume of DHL Express shipments to select countries, including Australia. Please help us achieve our goal this month. Place all your orders at iHerb and let others in Australia know about the great values we offer!"

Previously was 92% off published rate. Select Country to ship as "Australia" and you will be able to see the cost of shipping.

2) In additional to the new discount rates, Old users (maybe non-vip or new users too.) of Iherb can get VIP discount at:
5% $0+, 6% $60+, 7% $70+, 8% $80+, 9% $90+, 10% $100+, 12% $200+, 14% $400+

You have to add something inside your cart to see these discount rates. Just tested out without logging into my account and it shows the discount rates which implies that non-vip or new users might also get to enjoy the discount rate mentioned above.

3) Lastly, only for first time iherb purchasers: Enter ANY Iherb referral code (or mine: HOY564) at the checkout page for additional US$10 off and order more than US$40 (order less than $40 gets US$5 off).

        Bought 2 x dr bronner's magic soap 4L bottles for the missus. Plus some BCAA's for myself and some of that Biotin shampoo. Order was like 12kg and DHL express shipping was $17 dollars.

        Love this multi, its one of the best on the market. But it MAY be a tiny bit cheaper from BB.com, it depends on how many you buy, how much shipping costs, and if you use a referral code at iHerb.

        So, best to do your own cost comparison.

      This one is highly recommended and a very high quality and pure supplement with activated B Vitamins and Citrate form Minerals http://www.iherb.com/Thorne-Research-Citrate-Formula-Basic-N...

      The controlled labs also looks good and is a good price for Chelated form.

    I have been using iherb for years and made a lot of orders but I used DHL once and will never use it again when buying vitamins or things that can go to quarantine.

    DHL sends an invoice for quarantine processing fee RANDOMLY and I was one of the lucky people who had to pay something like $46.

    Heard some people dont pay and tried to challenge DHL.

    I paid as I dont feel like having any trouble in the future when I have to use DHL for other things.

    iHerb offers DHL Express- International and Global Mail by DHL

    DHL global mail should be fine but it was the express one that I got an invoice.

    There is a message on iherb checkout page

    For further information about DHL's Quarantine Processing Fee and any other queries in relation to shipping with DHL to Australia, please contact DHL Express Customer Service in Australia on +61 7 3845 7850* or by email at http://www.dhl.com.au/en/contact_center/contact_express.html as certain surcharges may apply to your shipment.

    Definitely a saving. I had stuff in my cart but didn't check out cause something I wanted wasn't in stock. Shipping cost would have been $17. Checked just now and shipping for same cart was a bit over $8 which is fantastic. Can't get much shipped for that price from anywhere - even (especially!) locally.

      Your celebration may be premature. If DHL is to impose the additional $47 fee, they'll be invoicing you separately about 3 weeks after the package is delivered.
      I order on average twice a month from iherb and haven't had a iherb shipment opened for inspection by customs for over a year, so on that basis the odds are in your favour.

        I have had numerous packages opened by customs and never received a fee. If they tried it would be like getting blood from a stone.

          That's because your packages were delivered by Australia post (to your door - as is the case with Global Priority). I've also had many packages that were opened without a fee being charged. The problem is with DHL deliveries to your door, ie Global Express.

    For the benefit of those who cannot see my comments that have been hidden above, my orders this past year have been via Global Priority (DHL) which is delivered by Australia post after it arrives in Australia and does not appear to incur additional fees. DHL Express on the other hand may incur an additional ($47) fee - it's stated right in front of you when you do the order. To quote: " ..there may be extra delays and expenses due to customs."

    The quarantine inspection fee, as mentioned above, does not appear to be paid to customs though, but is imposed by DHL when your package is subject to a customs inspection. I make this claim having incurred the fee, and after reading posts on Whirlpool by those who have been charged the fee and have made demands on DHL to produce the paperwork from customs. Even if it was paid to customs, I am still not happy about paying an additional $47 and I'll be avoiding DHL Express as long as there is a risk of it being imposed. Good luck to those that take that chance.

        Just received a response from DHL ''Iherb’s contract with DHL Express advises that any Quarantine Inspection charges – are billed to Iherb- not the receiver.''
