well since my seizure rate is 75% I did some research. I found the custom's policy for checking packages... They randomly check packages return addresses of international mail... if the addresses are not legit they open the package. once they find the anabolics, the mark the address and name of the recipient in a log... ALL international mail from that point is tagged and analyzed... so the size of the package really has nothing to do with the siezure rate other than the fact that smaller might be less able to be seen... I found this out from my uncle... he is a supervisor of customs down in T.J., Mexico... IP: Logged |

you are wrong. first of all how can customs check to find out if an addy is legit or not? if i get a package from italy then what do they do? do they check to see if the street exists in the city from which it was sent? Do they check to see if the sender lives on that street? what are you talking about? are you saying that us customs has the time/money/audacity to do these types of checks? I know sources that nearly never have had anything seized. Why? becuase they send small packages. Customs does not have the time or patience or will to check a package that weighs under half a pound and contains 10-15 amps.If you ask your source to send one of these i guarantee it will get through.

There are so many small streets and ancient addresses in Europe that this would not be possible. This would take tremendous cooperation from the foreign goverments and I don't think they have the time or manpower either. IP: Logged |

First anything Coming out of Mexico through the mail system will be checked, but it is not the same for Europe what happens is that a source that has been working from the same location for a long perion of time will for sure go on the FDA alert list and most but not all packages coming from that locotion will checked, now when it comes to domestic sources mailing, one of the biggest fuckups they can make is the return address that they use must be a real address from that area, some guys will just make a address up and fuckup on the Zip code this will send a red flag up and they may open the package or they do not use a return address at all this too will cause problems. I have had packages siezed that were the size of a mailing envolope just because the company was on the alert list. but it is getting harder and harder to recieve gear from overseas sources.

I believed that small packages were the way to go also... I got beat from customs on a package with 10 vials of sus... thats what made me do the research... they don't actually check the return address for validity.. they check it for legibility and x-ray everything that goes through of course... but I was told that once you get one package siezed (like me) that your name and address is tagged and ALL international mail is checked IP: Logged |

I'M SORRY BUT YOU'RE WRONG, IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY, THEY CAN'T POSSIBLE CHECK ALL THE PACKAGES IN THAT WAY. I RECEIVE PACKAGES ALL THE TIME FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I'VE ONLY HAD 1 NOT COME IN AND THAT WAS FROM A QUESTIONABLE SOURCE----YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE------OTHER THAN THAT, ALL THE SOURCES I DEAL WITH KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING, HENCE I RECEIVE EVERYTHING!!!
