domestic mail advice.

[flickenu]

I had a cable modem sent to college about a week ago but then i moved back home and when it got sent back home (after the terrorists event) the tape on the package had been cut, the box had been opened, and then retaped by whoever. just thought i'd let you guys that are worried about domestic mail know. i'm not saying that packages are going to get seized, just that they have been tightening up on domestic mail also.

I recieved a domestic package that was ordered the afternoon of the bombing as well as another ordered the day after.

My old roomte used to get his juice in hollow candles. Customs would most of the time open the packages but I guess never really took a close look at them.

I guess that if you are expecting some computer device, it'll be open since it is more likely for it to carry(or be) a bomb. some smaller package, specially if your source packs well should go out fine.

if the post office opens your mail or customs for that matter, they must indicate that it has been opened and inspected. they use special tape and have a letter/form they send allong with it.

as for the modem, i would think the universtiy open and looked at it. which you sould find out if they are allowed to do that. some school you have to agree to that sort of thing, others you don't.
