I would say who but I dont think u can on this part of the board) Anyways, I didnt have to sign for it, What they did was they opened the package, took the gear out and replaced it with the letter and resealed it. So far I have had about 10 packages from this supplier in the last few weeks (I had a huge order) so he broke it all down into different packages so that way if customs takes it they wont seize everything in one shot. Again thanks for the help bros!!

Standard practice for alot of suppliers.

I dont see how they could "flag" your address...think how many packages come through customs a day and get seized...they dont have the manpower or the funds to sit around and type peoples address into a database.....just my .02....fuck em anyway.

IMO, the notion of the address being flagged is mere folklore meant to instill fear. If his old address was "flagged" he surely would've ran into issues with one of the multiple orders he received AFTER getting the customs letter. I conclude there is a "chance" of the address getting flagged but it is NOT definate.

I would think it would not be your address anyway it would be a name! I agree they have to many issues to keep up without worrying about some gear coming into the US!!

I would talk about it on an open forum for all to see. So that some a hole from LE can see that your order was seized track your ip to get your addres then pay you a visit.

Last AI's I got came with a letter inside from shipper about non interference with delivery and my constitutional rights to buy meds. WTF is that supposed to be customs kryptonite or something?
