    Shipping Gear, Any Suggestions/Tricks?

    Hey guys, i was wondering how most of you get your gear shipped to you when coming from across seas, or out of the country? Such as is their a courier service you find more secure such as UPS or Fedex. I live in canada and i'm not exactly sure how strict customs are with the amount of packages they search, but in the past i have ordered powders from across sea, and i noticed on one of my packages was opened and retaped with customs tape. Most of my powders i receive are mixed and then put in a nonlabeled plastic container and sent to me so i guess they figured it was some kind of juice or some shit i got no idea, i was surprised to see they opened my package and thought nothing of it and just sent it on its way, its probably cause they didn't want to go through the hassel of doing expensive tests to find out what it was. But anyways my problem now is i'm looking at getting vials sent to me from accross seas, and i'm worried that they will definately seize my shit if they open my parcel and see vials. I have received my other gear by just using the regular postal service, in my case they come through Canada Post. I'm wondering if a courier such as UPS or something may be less proned being opened by customs as opposed to just the regular postal service.

    My source raps it in carbon paper. Think it makes it harder to detect under x-ray...

    hmm? do they run all parcels under x-ray? if so i did not know this... i thought they just picked random suspicious looking packages and opened them up.

    This really shouldn't be openly discussed. It's no secret that feds monitor boards. All this will do is make sure they know what to look for.

    I live in the UK and sometimes order gear from outside of the UK. So...I guess it goes through customs? I was under the impression they x-rayed the odd parcel...?

    Agreed.

    i was actually reluctent to post a topic like this man, i first checked the rules to see if it was on the "Don't Do" list. It also came to mind that feds could come accross this, but i have no where else to go and ask these types of questions and do not feel like losing more hard earned money to the gorvernment, i pay enough taxes. With that said though topic can be closed if people feel this could potentially be monitored and read by authorities cause if thats the case that will definately not help my cause.
