: : When you receive stuff by mail, do you prefer to use a mail box service?
: : In this case, it seems the package has to be sent to you or the name you specified.
: : Or, do you like the package to be sent to your home with a false name on it, even if your own address is exposed?
: : Which way has more advantage? Or any other suggestion?
: : ZIP
: No matter how you do it, if the package is tagged by the FEDS/DEA who ever picks up the goodies, no matter where you get it or how!!! The best approach is to never open a package for two weeks and play stupid, and don't have any A.S. info. or stuff around!!! Be careful and watch your back!!! Hulkster
>>>TWO WEEKS??!! That would be like putting your kids Christmas presents under the tree on Thanksgiving day with "DON'T OPEN 'TIL CHRISTMAS" lables on them. Who could wait? I am no expert on the shipping and receving detail, but once you sign for a package, does it really matter if you open it or not? If you accept the product, and "they" don't bust you then and there, it would seem prudent do get rid of the packaging and stash your gear. I'm interested in getting others feed back on how they have [in theory] devised a more secure methode of receiving mail-order gear. {No sources, just logistics] I thought an out of state re-mailing service could reduce risk. They get the package and remail it to you [your alias] in another package via snail mail. Does anyone have this figured out?
