Buying gear while on vacation in Mexico

**thenextcutler** · 03-06-2010, 01:37 AM

Hey guys, so I'm off to Mexico in two weeks and I'm playing on mailing myself an early Xmas present. I know there are people on this board that have purchased down south before. Can you guys give me some tips on what brands to look for to avoid counterfeits and get quality gear? Are there specific chains of pharmacies that are better? Specific stores? (cancun)

thanks guys any help or input is appreciated

1.) You are breaking the rules.
2.) 90% of shit from Mexico is fake, underdosed, or very painful.

I don't see how I am breaking the rules. I'm not talking about mail order sites and I'm not planning on making any illegal purchases. I am asking for advice on where to buy a product LEGAL in that country. If I asked where the best place to buy shoes is that wouldn't be breaking the rules either

You are bringing a product into a country where it is illegal. Is it legal to bring a lb of weed from Amsterdam back into the USA?

Did I say what country I was from? Cuz I'm certainly not from the USA. Did I say I wanted advice on MAILING? no.

If they are legal in your country, THEN WHY DON'T YOU PURCHASE THEM THERE?

..I am done with this thread, good luck.

There legal but banned for sale, as such you can own and use freely but the government doesn't allow free trade on them commercially. Hopefully someone can offer advice

****** said it right...90% of whats in Mexico is fake. ESPECIALLY the tourist areas like Cancun. My wife and I were just in Cancun a month ago(not for the intent of looking for gear) but figured while we were there it wouldnt hurt to look. Now let me tell you, I really REALLY do my researce on counterfeit gear, and everything I saw was fake or tampered with. Now, is there real gear in Mexico?? Of coarse, but not in high tourist areas like Cancun.

You actually tried purchasing human grade legally in a major pharmacy?

I dont think what he is asking is that unreasonable.

If someone knows this info, you should PM him

Its not like hes trying to buy off the forum. Its like him going to cuba and asking where to get good cigars. You guys who are crying are babies..
