    Do you need to get an account with De Struise to access the web shop? If so, how do I get one. I get asked for a name and password to enter the webshop when I click the link. Any help would be appreciated.

    Short version is they had a bad paypal hacking type of event about 6 months ago. They shut down for about 3 months after that, then came back up as "members only", which is for people who already had accounts there and had ordered in the past. They're supposed to be offering up new memberships for a fee at some point, but they haven't done that yet. My guess is they are just too busy with everything else they do - the webshop was always more of a fan service, so they're likely focused elsewhere.

    You can send them an email, but I've heard others have tried and nothing... likely just need to wait for the public enrollment type of thing. If it makes you feel better though, the shop offerings have been pretty stagnant lately.

    Great info, thanks. I guess I will have to wait, save some money in the time being. No issues getting shipments into MA though? Thinking about using ĂȘtre and/or Belgiumimabox.

    Nope. I've been ordering overseas for years - no problems with either of those guys (or Struise). Theoretically speaking there is always a risk ordering international, but the odds are heavily in your favor. Shipping costs are a bitch, but you will almost definitely end up with what you ordered.

    Yeah, willing to pay a premium to get things unavailable or practically impossible to find here. Just need to find a friend or two take the plunge with me. I figure $25 a bottle once you include shipping.

    Struise webshop was without UPS shipper since last February due to technical problems. These problems are behind us and UPS is back. While the Belgian Post seems to be unbeatable at 5KG, UPS is the better deal from 10KG on. Check it out in your shopping cart, all shipper possibilities are always present. You can choose the most cheapest one yourself... :-)

    I emailed him twice, after the whole change-up went down and never heard back. Hope you have better luck.

    Yeah I had a previous account, but my username and/or password was not accepted once the store came back. Tried emailing them, no reply.

    I don't know if this would help or not but your email addy is your user name.

    He did get back to me and my username and password worked successfully.
