    If your flying to Cali /w pins, etc

    If you check the baggage in, not carry on of course, do you think that there would be any issues?

    I know for a fact that you can't order pins into a california address unless you have a doctors prescript. And as far as the ect goes, has anyone ever had a problem with keeping that stuff in the checked in luggage?

    I have lived in California and know for a fact that you can order them without a Rx. Many have and many are doing just that for their pins. As for you bringing them in your luggage I'm not sure. Alert is high at the airports so it's risky business.

    I havn't tried since I haven't moved back. I have just visited various websites that claim that california law prohibits the shipment of pins to cali and arizona without a valid docs prescript.

    I have already ordered them in tx anyway, so they will arrive here. I am more concerned about checking in the baggage and getting in trouble. I have never been in that situation and I have never tried to move pins/gear from one state to another via airplane. I have alternatives, that's why I am asking now just in case.

    If you have a change of addy then they'll just be shipped to your new place in Cali. It'll save you the effort and the risk of being hassled.

    I would leave them at home and get some when your in Cali. It's not worth getting busted for just pins.

    Dont bring pins on the plane. I'm a daibetic and i have to and its a hassle. I need copy of original script. The sticker from the pharmacy and a letter from my doc. If they find them your going to have to answer alot of questions. Especially now with all this shit
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Try going to a vetrinarian website instead of medical supply site. They have different rules. Thats how I get mine.
