A few weeks back I made my first order via Silk Road, 0.2 grams of heroin. I got it fast and it was of good quality.
With that experience under my belt, I ordered 14 grams of weed from a seller with good feedback. Soon after I ordered, the seller started getting poorer feedback, with long delays in delivey being reported and a few people not getting their orders. However, because most buyers did get their orders in the end, I decided not to sweat it and ordered a few more things in the meantime: another 3 grams of weed and some seeds from a different seller, and 3.5 grams of shrooms from another.
Around this time, I got one page of a bank statement in the mail along with a letter saying the following:
"The enclosed mail item was returned to Australia Post. It appears that it may have been stolen from your letterbox after delivery. Our Corporate Security Group [and the police] are aware of this incident and investigations are continuing. It seems that an external party has opened the item and, therefore, the contents may be damaged or missing.
Due to an increased incidence of mail theft after delivery within your local area, you are encouraged to consider the security and location of your letterbox."
My letterbox is more secure than many, and locks. A few days later I got a letter from a neighbour saying a FedEx parcel had gone missing and to contact him if I had any further information.
In the days since, none of my orders have arrived despite being a couple of weeks since I ordered, although I have been receiving other mail here and there. I have no idea what to make of all this, whether I have been the victim of further theft or if my mail has been intercepted. I've never had any problems with not getting my mail in the past, so I'm having really bad luck as of late. Needless to say, I'm not likely to be placing any more orders on Silk Road for a while.

The first thing to do is act (and react) like a totally innocent person.
This likely has NOTHING to do with SR or your orders, and there is a thief actually operating. (Which means they got your drugs, and they are not likely to admit to stealing drugs even if they are caught, would you admit to it? :) So you are quite within your rights to follow up and protest to AusPost etc.
Remeber this: ANYONE CAN SEND ANYBODY ANYTHING IN THE MAIL, receiving or accepting any item is NEVER grounds for incrimination, anywhere, except maybe some fucked up place like Singapore.
Read the forum for how to behave if you think you have been subject of a controlled delivery.
Trust me, you newbies have hyper-active imaginations, no one in the PO or LE gives a fuck about your mail, unless you're ordering by the truckload, in which case, it will be arriving in a submarine, not a package.
Please all of you guys, go read the forum well, before we dish out anymore -ve feedback today. Sheesh! Do we have to spoonfeed you fuckers every step of the way? It is all there, go READ. :(

Never meant to imply this was Silk Road's fault. I'd be silly to keep placing orders that don't get to me, is all. I do intend to follow it up with Australia Post.
In what part of my post do I have a hyperactive imagination? I haven't jumped to any conclusions one way or the other. The weird thing is, my mail box locks and I generally don't see any signs of it being pried open or tampered with. I remember finding it open once, perhaps shortly before I got that letter from Australia Post, and presumed I forgot to lock it. Other than that, nothing.

Yeah, sounds like you have a band of junkies/thieves following around your local parcel carriers.
I remember not too long ago reading about a few guys here in the US getting caught doing the same thing. They'd just follow around the UPS/FedEx guys, watch them deliver, then run up and steal the package after the deliverer was gone. Guess those guys stole a lot, and pretty much stuck to the same area. The lock on your mailbox could most likely be easily defeated... either with some sort of master key, or some other finagling/rigging/picking.
If you want to figure out who these junkies stealing your stuff are, just mail yourself a big box and be there waiting hidden... or set up a surveillance camera etc.

Ok we take it back with the hyper-active imagination, we was pissed off with reading other jittery posts today elsewhere, that seem to be posted every half hour as if the OP has just discovered the new heroin or somethin, their shit is two minutes late or they get asked to sign for a package, and its like the fucken sky has fallen in, as if the feds are ever going to be on to some first time SR user, puhleeze!
But, you say your MB was open one time. That's when you may have got done. Are you also saying more mail has since gone missing? Could be this time they are locking the lock after they're done fossicking in there.
Aussie suburban streets are pretty deserted during the day, you could walk nude down them and not get noticed.
If you're lock is some cheap Chinese thing you got at woollies, then upgrade your lock. Was either picked, or the thief had a dupe key.
You are in Australia, shit takes time to get to us from everywhere. plus you have a thief problem. They're both not really something you're going to get advice on that will be any different than if you posted on a gardening site, for example.
Good luck with it all. See you on the 'senior' threads sometime.
