Default Getting methylcobalamin in Australia

Hi Everyone

I tried unsuccessfully to buy methyl B12 from Iherb in January 2006. I suspect the Australian customs confiscated my order. I understand from Brian in another thread that Australians are now getting orders of methyl B12 from Iherb through Australian customs. Is that correct, or does it depend on what products one orders? Does one need to arrange an import permit?

Methyl B12 is available in Sydney from a store called Mr vitamins (http://www.mrvitamins.com.au). Manufacturer is Thorne (USA) and the cost is high. Only 1000 microgram caps are available at just under AU$1.00 per cap. I have no idea of the quality of this product. These caps are classed as 'Practitioner only' and are hidden behind a counter. Methylcobalamin is supposed to be very sensitive to light so if the manufacturing process quality is not high the capsules may be ineffective.

Does anyone know of any other way of getting methyl B12 in Australia (legally)?

Thanks.

Martin
