Handwritten addresses

Just wondering how bad of an OPSEC failure this could be. I recently ordered a very high quality product that I want to order again but it was the first time I have recieved a handwritten parcel.

Should I ask and see if the vendor could print it? Just wondering I guess what most people think about this.

Would you order again if he couldn't type it?

They are definitely worse. Many le guidelines have been posted to keep an eye out for that, along with express, heavy weight, international, etc. That being said, it's not that big of a deal. If stealth was on point, and nothing seemed sketchy, you're fine.

The handwritten label should make sense. If the return address is from say a professional company handwriting might be out of place. But honestly not that out of place. The only downside is if Vendor has bad handwriting. It might delay a pack. But short of that there is nothing too inherently wrong with handwritten labels.

Def not the end of the world. If the return addy is a personal name, a handwritten label makes sense. I handwrite labels if I happen to be sending something.

I don't think hand written labels are an immediate red flag. You have to remember, there's regular people sending letters to other people and places as well that don't have access to a label printer. But, I do think it's proper etiquette for a vendor to just use printed labels instead of hand written ones. I think hand written ones mostly become a problem when the vendor is being profiled.

It's like getting drugs from your gramma.

Handwritten addresses are very common. Not sure how that would flag anything.

There are far more packages in general sent with hand written labels than printed labels. Getting printed labels can be an incredible bitch and in the big picture does not increase stealth. As long as the zip code and address number and street are legible, there is nothing to worry about.

Another aspect, atleast from the grapevine I have heard from Postmasters who live and work in cali... (thats where this advice comes from) They(thepostmasters) themselves ship weed, because thats how you make money in america. LOL

But handwritten labels are the normal way most people send normal packs without drugs. There are packs that show up often that stink of weed. There was a story I heard of a guy dropping off a pack who knew the postmaster, there was a cop in line too, and some other guy walked in with a pack that reaked like skunk.

The cop smelled it, the guy who told the story smelled it, the post master smelled it, the guy and the post master looked at eachother in recognition of the smelly pack... the post master just kinda said "I want my sales to be high, so take it, let the guys on the other end of the country deal with it....

So full knowing their is weed walking into the post office the post master still accepts the pack, sends it, doesnt fuck with it, steal it, report it. Its $$$$ dude. Post offices are like retail stores and i think there are incentives for having higher/increasing revenue/sales.

The average weed parcel seized is also over 5lbs. Which means like 70% of all pack seized are WAY over 5lbs. From my experience very few DNM deals exceed 8-10 lbs. Even then most are under 2lbs. Which means the bulk of weed seizures is also coming from non DNM related business.

Not ideal but not a disaster. Would be very unlikely for you to get caught due to a handwritten label as opposed to a printed one. I wouldn't worry!

There's this rumor that only drug dealers learned to write with a pen at school, drug dealers swallowed the idea, and so all drugs are sent with printed labels.

Your vendor realized this. By writing your name and address with a pen, he made it look nothing like an envelope full of drugs. The perfect decoy.

i find it absolutely fine if the package is not business style. Moreover, in this case, printed address is bad OPSEC.
