the FINAL TRUTH on claiming gear at the US/Mexico Border??

[Skullfucked]

still you need a legit medical purpose..... what do you suggest ?

In most cases the Custom agents wont give a fuck. But there's always a chance to meet the dick of the gang...

Manny, In all practical sense of the matter I agree and understand what you are saying. That being said if someone says they have say, HIV, and have testosterone,ect. and you have 50 units how can the agent prove you dont have HIV?
I do know of some people here who are in that boat and WOULD be in the right. If someone chooses this road they better be ready to stand their ground and fight (for obvious reasons).
It CAN be done but doesnt work that way unless you really,really fight.

Yup of course as I said most Custom Agents are humans.... some aren't but it's another story. Well yeah having HIV is a reason but they'll most likely ask you why you aren't buying with a script since this way your insurance will pay.

Also you guys live in the US so you have 2 borders, one with Canada and one with Mexico. Technically it's impossible to buy something in Canada without a script from a canadian doc, which will in turn require one from the US or a medical test to confirm your condition. So forget about going to Canada and bring back 50 Yellow tops in your suitcase. And without a script, it will cost you about the same price as a good source would. For example my mom has a script for anadrol since she has a rare and severe form of anemia. She pays around 0.50$ each tabs..... without a script they'd cost a good 2$. Only things you could buy here without a script would be syringes, B-12 injectable, tylenol with codeine and insuline.

So let's take a look at Mexico. Most of the cheap stuff (I should say everything) is Vet grade. The 50 units rule concerns human grade. How would someone justify injecting vet grade test while he has HIV and needs high quality and sterile stuff ?

Bobber: you should understand there's a difference between requiring a script and a medical purpose.

What I understand is what I know and have done. I don't care what you think you know, but you do not need a script or a reason for bringing it back. When asked what the reason I am bringing gear back all I have said is "to put on muscle."

What you are doing is very similar to if I were to give my advice on a drug, such as growth, that I have never done. Yes I have read about it and think I know enough but in all reality untill I do it and see what it does I have no place to share my thoughts on what it I THINK its like.

What really gets to me is that you are a mod and a lot of the newbies around here don't know better than to listen to you and get scared off from obtaining their gear at a way lower price than they could.

Before going on a board to tell a crock of shit, you better be informed. You might have done that, at least that's what you pretend. But I work at Lacolle border and know the Custom agents from both side cause sometimes we're called for back-up or whatever. What you seem to know is irrelevant when it comes to talk about legal issues that might have an impact.

Same as if someone would say "it is legal in Canada to have 5 g of pot on you". Technically false, but in real life no one cares about that except for some dickheads that might seize it. Another myth I' faced everyday...

Anytime you are down here in Texas let me know and I will take you on a guided tour and show you.

I second that. Bobber and I will take a trip together and whoever else wants to come and we can have a big discussion about it on here. I don't need to go for awhile though, but will anyway. Unless my stuff is fake.

do they have metal detectors at the TX border at Nuevo Laredo yet? I think things may be a bit different at TJ than Texas border towns. I've been over the border at N.Laredo a few times and never been stopped or even slowed down. Never did I have to declare my citizenship. Hell, I was barely even looked at, even when carrying bags of souvenirs. I dunno about trying to declare anything at TJ border.
