PO Box question

[sircharles]

Did a search to no avail.

What is the point in getting a PO Box. You still have to show your actual ID and have your addy verified by the post office clerk, therefore if something bad is found, they STILL know whos box it is in.

Just curious what the advantage is here :/

If you trust your source and know he's good with good ratings, it's a better place to get it shipped because there is hardly anything to it.

You place an order.. a few days later it's in your box. 24-hour stations are nice too, go pick it up at 2am while you're on you way to Taco Bell. No one to talk to, no one to bother you.

If your source is domestic, chances are you'll be fine any way you choose.

Another good purpose of a PO Box is that it is easier to hide packages from the people you live with. Like nosy girlfriends or parents, etc.

Great way to hide it from your wife is will kill me if she finds out.

I think you're less likely to get in trouble with the law when using a PO box. Controlled deliveries by the DEA happen at homes, not PO boxes, generally.
