I am just curious of everyones opinion concerning orders sent from other countries to you. Has anyone had any problems getting something sent from another country....or been questioned by any type of feds or anything like that. If so how did it go down or whatever. Well bro's......thanks in advanced. Just something I have been thinking about (having something sent from another country to me) and was considering doing this depending on how safe or not this may be.
Peace!!

Safe as domestic IMO. Just rent a P.O. Box and make sure you don't have to sign for your packages. I've only got "The Letter" once.
i order mine from overseas. the shipping is so that there is no signature required. if someone with my package shows up at my door i'm not taking it. they can have it. i just received a package in the mail last night. as is well.
i live in the us and used to get my gear from uk i never had a problem guess it depends on how good the packing is
I would never say its as safe as domestic ever. it may be safe if you follow certain precautions but no way near as safe as domestic. Domestic doesnt see customs so guess what youll almost never get "the letter". I have never got " the letter".Quote:

I'm in Israel and always order Int'l. I've ordered a lot of stuff and my packs have never been opened by customs.
I order from mexico, air shipping, and it has a return address from texas for some reason. Never any problems though.
I thought you have to sign no matter what if it's coming out of the country into the united states.
nope i get mine from across the pond and never sign for itQuote:

But lets just say it comes to your house and all. Can you get in trouble if you dont accept. Even if it has your name and addy on it.? i assume you would have to have it in your hands to get in trouble. But I appreciate all you guys replying. For me....this is one of those things you already know the answer to.... but you need to hear from some others. Thanks again for the input.
Peace
JUst get a P.O Box or Mail box etc address.
If Customs do take your package away with your name on it, then your name will go on the Customs data and you may get searched one day coming back from a different country.
B4 thinking on how good is intl packing just think about how legit
your intl source would be, just a zillion of scammers out there so
you never know, just trust domestics if you can afford for the money.
Safer and faster JMO.

ok im in sweden and i never had to sign for my post, i always order international, becuz i dont got any source in my own contry, well sorry for stealing this thread, but how safe is it to send/recive powders? do they have drug dogs or?
oh one more... ist the punisment harder on powders that the finnished stuff
I dont believe that for a moment,well maybe only in america but not anywere else in the world i mean think how many package are seized every year that data base would be filled with adresses and they would have to hire 100 people to check packages from those adresses only its another thing if they find 1kg of powder or 1000amps then they suspect you of selling and thats a totaly different story.Quote:
