Author | Topic: How does this shipment method sound? | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder ![]() ![]() Posts: 66 |
OK, I just wanted some input on the way I am hypothetically getting some supplements. Basically, is it full proof for me and the address I'm shipping to? I am getting some stuff from a source overseas sent to a lady friend's apartement to a fake male name. (ie she is Jane Doe, and I am sending it to John Smith at her address). This sound good? I mean, is she safe? I mean, she can obviously say that the mail is not her's, and it would seem that was obvious. I am just paranoid for her, any soothing words would be nice. Of course, any words other than "you pussied out and got it sent to your girlfriend's". Well, if you knew more about my situation you would see that is not the case at all. thanks broz ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

If your getting it expressed from an independent company,,it will probably work,,If its coming through the us postal service,,You will have to sign and show ID..If its independent they usually dont give a damn who signs for it..Bam Bam ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

BB is right. Some overseas mail must be signed for. ------------------ "Obsession is passion. Use it. Make it your strength." -by Puc ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

fedex is not that cool. from what I've heard, they check UPS and Fedex alot more then USPS mail...just keep that in mind....also if it is coming from overseas, you may have to sign for it if it weighs...hmmm...I think under two ounces(from what I hear). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

alright, thanks for the info. so the person I'm sending it is cool right? I mean there is no way she can get in real trouble? she doesn't even know what it is, she just knows that she is getting a package to a fake name and that she 'knows' nothing about it if asked. the reason I used her is because she has to go to some central type location to recieve packages, and in the past I once sent something to her address but with my name(UPS), she picked it up w/o having to sign or without any questions. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

too bad. yes she is cool tell her not to open it, to write RETURN TO SENDER on it and leave it INSIDE THE HOUSE close to the door, so she can say - hell it aint mine, I was on my way to return it. Slopain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Is this a JOKE??? Fed-ex is NOT safe. Because of the excessive smuggling through the company they now have strict guidelines to there packages. They will find it and keep it. The USPS is the safest. Do not use UPS either. E-mail your source, tell him to use the USPS and send it to your house. Use a different name(I use my own name) and wait. If it gets caught by Customs, then your beat. If not get huge!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

slopain thanks thats what i wanted to hear. so as long as she says she doesnt know what the fuck it is and that it isnt to her (which of course it isnt addressed to her) she cant be held acountable? but what if she signs for it, like lets say they do come and get her to sign, and dont even say who its to. is she then legally claiming ownership of it? maybe she is, but that is fucked up, because whenever I get a unexpected package in the mail I'm excited as fuck and wouldn't deliberate on what it is or if I was expecting something before signing. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

dahmer> so a person in lets say China, can send it USPS? I thought they had to go with an independant company, I'm probably wrong. He insisted fedex I believe, actually i think he only sends that way. does everyone else think that fedex sucks? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I haven't heard of any intl sources using fedex. Too risky like dahmer said. Just have her sign it and do what slopain said you'll be fine. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

im using a well known source in fact, his name is posted a lot on this board. I have emailed him asking about USPS, but I think he may have already sent it out, plus I really need to quit bothering him, I think I've emailed him 20 questions about my supplement order already.

lol your the kind of client they don't like. I didnt see the fed-ex thing, Id stay away form that, it will probably still get through, but they do check more fed-ex packages than other mail. Slopain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

plus its a really small order, 100 tabs, thats all. i dont know if that makes any difference as far as it getting caught though, but I would assume that the feds wouldnt even think about pursuing such a small quantity, but I may be wrong ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
