I need a friend in Switzerland

I’m looking for a fellow board member who lives in Switzerland who is willing to help me obtain a product only available there. The item is a regular retail herbal balm called Yegi that we bought in Interlaken during a skiing vacation a couple years ago. My wife loved the product but we can’t find it for sale online anywhere.

I’m looking for a friend who would let me pay them for their trouble to buy and ship us some of this, and of course I would compensate them for their trouble. Please send me a private message if you will help me surprise her with some!

Thank you!

Do you know about Yegi?

good luck

I’ve checked all those sites and can’t get confirmation from any that they will ship to the US. I do not expect that they will. I am guessing this product is not very common. Regardless, am hopeful someone near one of these stores will be willing to help out. I am glad to pay or even return the favor and ship something back that may not be readily available to them.

I not living in Switzerland and have never seen or heard something about this product here in Germany.
Maybe you find a distributor in an another country, which will ship to US (maybe the distributor of Mexico).

Economy shipping from Switzerland to USA will cost: up to 1kg: $21, up to 2kg: $36. Priority shipping will cost $16 more.

I read the ingredients and are very similar to a mexican product called “Pomada Goicoechea Arnica” that my wife uses, we can find it locally in Walmart, Walgreens, CVS pharmacies. check out the ingredients:

Hope it helps

The reason you don’t see any seller shipping overseas is probably because of restriction for shipping liquids on airlines.

My guess is that similar shipping limitations will be imposed on this Swiss friend as well. :slight_smile:

Alex,

Where do you see the ingredients?

BTW my wife says she buys Goicoechea Arnica at WalMart by the cosmetics section

I went to Walmart. They did not have it.
I went to Walgreens. They did not have it.
I will get some from Amazon.
