Anyways, seeing as how i cant go back over there AND NO ONE ON THIS BOARD WILL HOOK A BRO UP WITH A SOURCE (lol...)...i resorted to ordering online from some over seas websites. I ordered 3 different things from three different overseas sites (so i f i get scammed at least one might send me something) and i ordered some finaplix-h pellets from a domestic vet site. All sending addresses are in my name to my P.O. box. Heres my question: I wasnt even thinking when i ordered that customs might "flag" me and open every box i get from overseas now...i never ordered **** through the mail before...IM REALLY SCARED BROS...PLEASE GIVE ME ADVICE. AM I STRESSING FOR NOTHING? IF IM AT RISK FOR BEING "FLAGGED" WHAT SHOULD I DO?????
    I have had a package taken from customs between mexico and canada. True,they might "flag" your name if they found something illegal,but it would be impossible for customs to look for a name on every package or envolope. I have ordered from all over the world and have never had a problem again.

    Well if they ever do open a package again and it has AS or anything else illegeal you can expect a visit.
    I'd get a different address to send something to if I were you...

    Very true. And you can avoid the visit by misspelling your family name in a different way every time.
