I have read two posts from bros who got powder. Yet both found the package opened and then resealed. I have not recieved one yet, so is the package that is shipped distinct enough whereas it could be flagged automatically just by looking at the exterior? Or is it just an ordinary looking package where bad luck just comes into play? The source claims it to be foolproof.... IP: Logged |

Ive yet to use powder, but I would think if they are dumb enough to package it in anyway similar to that of say cocaine, then yeah...not a good idea as far as getting your addy flagged. BTW..chemist shoot me an email when you get the chance, I have a question for you. Later, ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hey bros, their shipping methods are great. The package is pretty small and made to look like junk mail. But I have also heard a couple people say they have had problems so I don't undestand what is up. Maybe there is a rat among us. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

Mav, have you recieved multiple packages from them? And I smell a rat too. Here's my reasoning: It's no secret that many of us are trying out the new powder. The feds order some too to find out what the packages look like. Let's say that they order two and the packages are identical "junk mail". Now they know exactly what to look for. Most mail has to be hand sorted at some point. So they post special alerts all over the place to look for this "junk mail". Obviously they won't catch all of it, but our perfect source is suddenly not so perfect anymore. Obviously this is a theory that only stands if the packages look the same. Any further thoughts Mav or anyone else? IP: Logged |

Bchemist: I have only recieved one of their packages. However, I have helped several bros on the board with this and none of them have had any problems yet. The problem that I see is that this is such a well known source that it would be easy for the feds to find out where to get the powder by just asking for help on the board like a newbie would. If this problem keeps up we need to let our friend overseas know that packages are getting siezed and maybe it is time to let him know to try a new packaging method. Maybe random sized envelopes of different colors would help. Hope this problem gets better though. We don't know for sure that they are on to us yet, so I think it is still too soon to know for sure. But you are right, we definitely need to keep our eye on this situation. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

I know that I have gotten alot of mail lately asking about the powder. I have helped a few well known bros out but the others I have ignored. I guess we should probably all keep this powder thing to ourselves for a while. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

what's this shit about the FBI buying some then informing all the mail people to look for this SPECIFIC junk mail thing? lol what the fuck? Do they just sit there all day sorting through millions of similar looking envelops just SEARCHING for some dbol or winny powder? You've got to be kidding me.Do they mail SAMPLES of this JUNK MAIL to all the customs and have them try to find duplicates? john IP: Logged |

Let me explain something to you Mr. Flamer. Millions of pieces of mail do not come from this foreign country on a daily basis. Thousands maybe. And YES if they send it via a standard method that is unique in some external way, it can be easily found if the mail is hand sorted. These packages are going to come through the SAME mail hub when they arrive here. All the DEA has to do (and DOES do from past lessons learned) is take a picture, brief the sorters on "the new hot item", post it near the sorting bins, and our fun is 90% over. Believe me or not, I couldn't care less. This is only for myself and the other bros here who actually give a shit about their freedom. Better safe than sorry. If you are going to play "Devil's Advocate" at least have your facts straight so it isn't so easy for me to pick your statement apart. IP: Logged |

Forever blast: The powder is very easy to find so I am sure that this is not totally absurd. True this may just be paramoia but if they are using the same type of envelope(and BTW, if you haven't ordered any yet the package is small but unique) then it would be pretty easy to spot if they knew what to look for. Like I said, my package was very unique and I am betting others are the same. The feds have been known to do stranger shit than that. Oh and also I believe the question was about what was up with people having problems with powder, so bchemist was just offering a possible scenario. I didn't see you offering any help as to why a few people have had some problems. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

Bchemist: you posted a reply to Mr.Flamer as I was writing mine so I didn't see it till now. But I agree with you. It wouldn't be that hard to spot the package if you knew what to look for. And foreverblast, if you are not going to offer help then don't wear out your fingers typing a reply. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

Anvil222: I agree with you bro. Guys, please don't e-mail me about this because everytime I mention powder someone e-mails me about it. Like I said, I have indeed helped out a few well known bros, but no more of this shit. Sorry but I don't want to mess up a good thing for myself. Peace...Mav IP: Logged |

Out of several packages i recieved from them lately, the 'exact' same packaging came up twice.......and the one most familiar to all, and i would think with the least prob of getting stopped was tampered with. Ive gotten several emails lately and am going to ignore them.....the only plausible reason for my package being opened was that customs has an inside tip on what to look for! Unity66 IP: Logged |

when our little friend started his business, he used to send out in his email , that sometimes his packages get opened by customs and are resealed and passed through. nothing to worry about. he also said he if you your order will be split up if you order momore then 5gm. each package will contain 5gm of product. thats why the multiple shipment.

We should definately keep the powder info to ourselves!!! We also have to remember that when we help newbies out with clomid from our friend that the powder info is there to. KEEP IT IN THE LOOP!!!! NO NEW PLAYERS!!!! This is definately one instance where trying to help a bro out could screw all of us!! IP: Logged |

The packaging is awsome. I doubt there will ever be problems. If there is, he reships to a new addy free of charge, so what are you worried about? IP: Logged |
