I've had more than my share of US Customs seizure letters mailed to me, accompanied by messages on my family answering machine (thanks Inspector Ginger...BITCH). There are some simple rules to follow regarding importing "questionable" compounds into the US. This has worked with Absinthe, designer drugs, pharmaceuticals, and steroids: 1. Use a PRIVATE mailbox. Go to your local Genko's or Mom'n'Pop's mailbox center and open an account. Presumably, you should take posession of atleast two forms of fake ID (unopened mail (use a printer), and library cards are the easiest). Open an account in your fake name (using the real PO Box number, of course). These types of businesses are the hardest for LE to penetrate. 2. If shipping to a residence, your's or any others, use a REAL NAME. This is the most common fuck-up. 3. Try to have the item shipped without signature verification. If you absolutely have the parcel shipped without signature verification, you simply avoid signing for the package (atleast in your real name) and skip Step 4. 4. IF you have to sign for the package, immediately accept the package and write "RETURN TO SENDER" on the face of the parcel. Leave near your doorstep; if anyone asks, you simply received an unexpected package and "planned" on returning to sender. Leave for 3-4 days, as most STING operations happen within this time-frame. 5. Be CLEAN. Have all drugs and paraphenalia stashed in a place where you will eventually forget it, from time-to-time. Bury it, stash it in an A/C vent, whereever. 6. Once the package has been successfully received using the above protocol, you are safe to open the package and continue as necessary. Some notes: a: Occasionally you will get a pushy mail carrier; refuse to sign for the package as the recipient. If you're ordering a large quantity, a STING will be performed within few minutes of reception. An undercover agent disguised as a mail carrier will make the drop-off, and you will soon be swarmed by SWAT. b. For smaller seized orders, you will receive a Seizure Notice. DO NOT reply to this letter; it is simply a registered letter, sent to you from a Postal Inspector, stating that your parcel has been seized and that you may argue this seizure. Do not fight it; throwing the letter away recognizes that you do not wish to fight the seizure, and will result in no disciplinary action. If you receive a seizure letter, depending on the size of the shipment, wait 6-12 months before shipping more questionable compounds to that address (as ALL mail will be flagged). c. Use standard packaging...to the very product. Use a standard-size box; if importing even 60 g of compound, package the product in a box that should hold a vas or something similar (12" x 4" x 3"). Make sure the product is "improperly declared" (e.g., write "electronics" on the label instead of "60 g of HARDCORE TRIPPIN' SHIT, YEAH!".) The product inside should be misrepresented as well...if ordering Absinthe, for example, the parcel should be labeled "fruit juice" or "special beverage". (this also bypasses ABC laws in various states). When importing powders, make sure the baggie is labeled something legal like "vitamin A". d. If ordering a "questionable" compound, deny knowledge of it's contents; if ordering a scheduled compound (Absinthe, 2-CB, mushrooms), deny that you ordered it...musta been credit fraud. Otherwise you should be tip-top. Only suspicious parcels from overseas are checked; domestic parcels are rarely checked (but then you risk domestic LE confrontation, another story altogether). So long as you're not shipping an extremely long box, or extremely wide box, you should be fine.
