New Policy For Active Duty US Military Personnel
Announcement
The Vitamin C Foundation will no longer charge shipping on any purchase to active duty U.S. military personnel residing outside the continental United States.
Note: The shipping charge will still appear on the online-store/shopping cart, but these extra charges will be waived as long as we are shipping Foundation approved products to a valid APO/FPO military address.
Furthermore,
military personnel stationed overseas will only be charged the WHOLESALE(autoship) price for one-time orders. (
Again, you will see the ordinary retail price on the order, but the Vitamin C Foundation will automatically discount the price if the address is a valid APO/FPO U. S. military address.)
The official definition of APO/FPO mail is (according to the Military Postal Service Agency):
Quote:
APO/FPO Mail - domestic mail and international mail that bears a U.S. military delivery address or return address and that, in some stage of its transmission, is in the possession of the DOD. This is mail that is being sent to or received from military installations located outside the Continental United States (CONUS). This mail may be official or personal in nature. This mail is centralized at certain locations such as San Francisco and New York for transport overseas. When mail is received in the CONUS from these facilities, letter mail is normally received in sleeved half trays, flats are received in sleeved plastic flat tubs, and parcels are received in #1 sacks.
It would probably be a good idea to mention your active duty status in the comment field or when calling our 800-894-9025 order line.
