Post office to sign for gear??? Attention vets!

**Aodha** · 10-06-2010, 11:13 PM

I've searched this site with this new format it has and I couldn't find anything. But I know I've read similar threads before. Here's my question; So I have an order that arrived but I was at work. So the mail man left a card saying I need to sign for a package. Last time I ordered from same source I also had to sign but it was at home and it was all good. Signing is sketchy as it is. How many of you have gone down to the post office to sign for gear and nothing happened?? And how much trouble could I get in if I got caught? Anyone with experience or stories please let me know. I wanna go get it soon.

You're fine. Go pick up your gear.
The DEA isn't going to bother sitting around at a post office for several days waiting to bust an end-user over a single pack.
If they intercepted the pack and wanted to nab you, they would have just rescheduled a controlled delivery.
And the sentencing on this sort of thing varies greatly based on how good your attorney is (in the US, at least).

Awesome. Thanks for the input. That's what I was thinking but it always feels good to hear it from somebody else.

Curious is it a domestic or Intnl pack??

**Aodha** · 10-07-2010, 02:52 PM

Intnl pack. And just so you all know, I went and picked it up no problem.

^^^^ ok, cause i was about to tell you that if you didn't go down and pick it up, i'd be glad to do so.

8 orders I've had to sign for at the Post office.... all registered mail. No problems.

BTW.... my 0.02? change from house delivery to PO Box delivery. Just another level of security so that your supplier doesn't know where you live. Up to you.

When I ordered from over sea's DEA sent a letter to my house saying they intercepted it and this was my first warning. If I wanted the gear show up and fight it in court if not they take it and trace it back to dealer....... well I never showed upp to court so i think they knew I wasent going to pick it uo anyways lol=)

I'm paranoid. I used to be involved in some stuff that necessitated me being paranoid for my survival. I prefer using a PMB at one of those chain stores that will sign for you and you can pick up your pack at your leisure. At the po there COULD be a sting set up (I have read about specific one's, albeit not for steroids ) having them go to the po to pick up pack.

If at one of those chain stores u have a box under fake ID, cops r not gonna stake the place out 24/7 for some small time nothing. Maybe for a KG or to catch a hit man doing biz through PMB but not for personal use steroids . Way to man power/labor intensive. U could come today, tomorrow, next week..... and if u set it up under fake ID they are looking for joe blow who looks like u but does not live where it says u live on the paperwork.

I tried this, but due to anti-terrorism laws and such they now require 2 forms of ID (a driver's license AND something that proves your name and address) making it insanely hard to fake.
