MBE Flagged!?

PBR,
Of course I'm listening to you, but if that happens, what do I do, just refuse to sign for it and/or refuse to take a package if they hand it to me? What if they come to my door and say "this is for you" and hand it to me? Just say "no it isn't" and slam the door?

Use your noodle mate, if they give it to you and say 'this is for you' then take it. If they ask you to sign anything then don't.

 

[blownvette]

Gel: Well if they give it to me and I take it, then I'm in posession of it, right? Isn't that what PBR was referring to when he said "do not recieve anything from any shipping/delivery person"? I am using my noodle, but now I'm getting conflicting advice, it seems.

syd black: What happened to you when you got popped?

CANUCK4 and others...

lets talk a little about a controlled delivery:

scenario:

source ships out from abroad on monday morning via ems service which usually takes 3-4 days to arrive to the receiver in the u.s. keep in mind that the ems package can be tracked at usps.com once it reaches the u.s.

the packcage which was sent via ems will most likely reach jfk on tuesday or wednesday. once it clears customs (which takes a day maximum) we can track the package and see where its at.

so lets assume 4 days have passed and when tracking it via usps.com the package still shows its in jfk.. that would trigger a red light for the sender/reciever.

the bottom line:

if customs snags the package and decides on arranging a controlled delivery, how long would it take them to arrange it?

we need to set the record straight once and for all...

BUMP

Don't do anything different than you do everyday. Just do not sign for any packages from people that you do not know. Why would you act different than ussual you have not broken any laws? You did not order anything from anyone outside the US so why would you accept a package from somewhere you know nothing about??? If a mail man for some odd reason asks you why you are refusing mail, with all of the terrorism going on in the world it only makes sense. Why in the world would an upstanding citizen like yourself take off running from a women in a van?? Make sense to anyone else? You will be fine just keep abiding by the law just like you have been doing and be smart.

satchboogie: Wait a minute; how do you know it only takes a day or two to clear customs? I have a pack that's been in Miami customs since Aug. 29. Should I be concerned?

 

[blownvette]

I'll add that I've received items since Aug 29, so wouldn't that indicate that what's in Miami is just waiting until someone gets to it?

Just use regular snail mail, keep the weight on the package low and have the source pack it with stuffing so nothing shakes. You can never go wrong. Of course you can't send bulk this way, but keep the cycle to yourself, better off not getting hauled off to federal prison, rather then getting a friend something.
