What is the consensus on this? I'm in a country (China) that is possibly flagged by other country's customs.
What about a moisture proof package inside of a document envelope and shipped internationally. What do people think about this?

Lay your powder out as flat as possible inside some plastic wrap. Then vac seal. Then wrap tightly in mylar. Then place it inside a thin piece of folded cardboard(shoebox is good thickness)that fits snugly into the envelope. Print out the shipping and return addresses on ordinary typewriter paper. Most countries do not require a Customs Declaration for DOCUMENTS of NO VALUE. That means you can use postage stamps and drop the envelope in a drop box anonymously. This is why flat packing is essential. When ready to post..it appears from the outside as nothing more than documents. Also, there may be a small, additional postage charge for rigid(non-bending) envelopes that cannot be put through automated sorting machines. You want to be sure you have enough postage when you drop.

That's a decent response but i think light card is fine, and can bend...depends on quantity...obviously a small shipment can bend - if you try it with a size order it is more bulky...logic applies really.
I like some invention on stealth though....if you order mine it can surprise you how innovative someone can be ;)
