Title: Isn't it extremely suspicious ordering from California?...
Post by: adude222 on July 30, 2013, 06:17 am
, especially from a place like the Emerald Triangle? All the hot weed sellers ship from California, and it just scares me. I did order weed from Colorodo once (didn't know before it arrived), which isn't as bad as CA, but few vendors say where their goods ship from so its hard to pick before ordering. Am I being too cautious, or should I follow my instinct here? I'm thinking about buying a good amount and the penalties for that possession are high. Your thoughts are appreciated.

we can ship out high qty out of numerous states to limit this -- what qty are you talking about?

Depends on what you think a good amount is. You can fit a QP in a small priority one price box. Tens of thousands are shipped every day through the mail. Yours isn't going to stand out as long as the vendor did their job with the stealth.

about an OZ (a lot for me, and a very high punishment in my state)

What about where I live, a small town (I'm on the countryside) somewhere across the country. Like, I'm afraid it would seem suspicious in my local area.

Shipping to where - somewhere else in the USA?  If so, don't sweat it.  Find a buyer with good smell stealth (MBB are a must), and your package will another parcel in the mail.

Really... Think of how many packages and letters ship out from California on a day-to-day basis.  Even if the proportion of weed being shipped is slightly higher then other states, it is still a miniscule portion of the total postal volume.

When considering instincts like this it helps to analyze yourself with the question, "who/what am I afraid of?"  In my mind, if you are a domestic buyer that takes reasonable precautions (basically - deal with trustworthy vendors.  For unknowns, start small and see how their packaging is), there is very little to be afraid of.  Everyone has their own fears, their own dangers based on their situation.  Identify yours, take precautions, always have a worst-case plan (I don't know anything! -stick with that- "my lawyer advised me not to answer questions without them present" is good if you are ever asked more then 2 questions by LE).

Basically... I highly doubt it matters what state is market on the return address of your weed shipments...

Just keep it at a very reasonable amount.....less than QP and as long as vendor does his part on stealth your golden!

Always think the same about shipping MDMA or speed from the NL .. most of the vendors from there wont even ship to my country

International is quite a bit different.

I read the sticky in one of the other sections on the process it goes through alright.. would it be a lot less risky to order from Germany  ? even though it's right next to NL

A couple years ago, I ordered an lb of weed from a guy online who told me he had a few couriers in my state. Like a dumbfuck, I didn't even THINK for a second to consider that my mailman was one of his 'couriers'. So, needless to say I was pretty surprised when my mailman dropped off a package from fucking Eureka, CA of all places. At least is made it with no issues, but it was just a priority box stuffed with weed.  :-\

But yeah, getting packages from high drug traffic areas seems risky as hell to me, but apparently there is still a very large success rate.

Yes.  From northern California is suspicious.  If you've ever been there then you would know that there is nothing out there but weed.  Everyone grows weed.  There are more grow shops than fast food places.  There is absolutely nothing around....  Well except for weed.
