WTF is up with customs?

[drug_against_war]

I had some powder from a certain Asian country arrive mid-March, and based on USPS tracking it is STILL sitting in customs. I haven't gotten an updated scan since it got there. Has anyone ever had their shit take this long? Should I be worried about a controlled delivery? I wouldn't think so, it's only 40 grams of test powder, but I'm not sure.
I'd like to hear from anyone that's had a similar circumstance and what the end results were.
Peace,
DAW

 

[Sigmund Roid]

1. You mean probably UPS
2. Where is it stuck, in the US or Asia?
3. 40 grams of test powder = 400 amps. i.e. that is a shit load.

 

[Zyglamail]

Its not uncomon for USPS tracking to be off, its a joke at best however if your item has been in customs over 2 weeks may want to worry.

On a side note what so many people fail to realize is that sure, powder is cheap and all but usually with the qty that has to be purchased you setting yourself up for trafficing charges the minute it gets snagged by customs.

 

[FREAKZILLA1]

yeah, got some shit sitting in customs for a week now. figure it will be a long wait. update always says "your package is being processed by US customs blah blah blah". getting sick of seeing that shit.

 

[Zyglamail]

10-11 days is about the longest I have seen anything sit in customs myself, other stuff less than 24 hours....go figure?

 

[Canuck4]

Thats a little too long to be sitting in customs bro.
When I track my packs they usually are inbound into customs and out within 2-3 hours.
Clean house and expect a notice probably.

mine popped up around the weekend as in customs. but that online tracker sucks....most times i am pulling it out the mailbox and it says "not recorded, check back later" still online. lol. but something about the word customs and the fact its been since the weekend makes me nervous. looks like i got a few months though since DAW hasn't gotten visited yet.

 

[Johnny Cut]

good luck bro

order domestic next time

always gotta worry about this kinda shit especially casue we are at war now and customs is being especially cautious

 

[HULKSTER]

Two reasons why I never got busted by Customs:

1. ALWAYS used seperate, smaller deliveries for large orders
2. NEVER use injectables, thus there is no chance of leakage or broken glass bringing attention to the package.

I'll take my chances with this one.

 

[blownvette]

Two Questions:
1. What is a controlled delivery?
2. HULKSTER: If you don't use injectables, what do you use? Can you list a sample cycle?

FREAKZILLA1 and drug_against_war

Are these packages stuck with customs on the east coast or west coast?

I was thinking of making an order and i live on the east coast.

 

[satchboogie]

thats the problem with u.s.
living in u.k for a year now and no problems with customs, deliveries. NADA!

 

[HULKSTER]

1. What is a controlled delivery?
2. HULKSTER: If you don't use injectables, what do you use? Can you list a sample cycle?

A controlled delivery is where the DEA scumbags place an electronic monitoring device inside your gear package. Once you open the package, whether at home or at the P.O. BOX you use, the DEA agents bum rush you, throw you to the ground with guns pointed at your head, and then you are fucked with shitloads of federal felony charges.

Anavar--and anavar only--is the way to go! Get your milk thistle, Tyler's Liver Detox, r-ALA and use about 40mg of Anavar ed for 6-7 weeks and you are set! Have used dbol in the past on cycles with 30mg ed, but I don't like the bloated feeling and the water retention that you get, even though I was using arimidex.

east cost, south. miami port? not sure where it comes in from. seems things have slowed since the war....used to be airmail non trackable was here in 5 business days. i order 90% domestic, this was just some stuff i can get cheap and sell for good money....so worth the small dollar amount risk in my book. but int'l is a PITA if you ask me for the small savings.....hard to find painkillers and the like though domestic for a good price, int'l pharms got them all over. but gear i can get domestic and prefer that route.

 

[drug_against_war]

It's stuck on the west coast, and even the source said that he doesn't like shipping west coast because of problems with customs. Apparently the east coast is way better, although I don't see how they could be so much sloppier. It supposedly is in an envelope, but maybe they got it anyway. I don't even care if I get a seizure letter, it was only like $100 worth of powder anyway.
Yes, domestic is safer, but try finding 40 grams of test powder for 100 bux here. You won't. That shit is dirt cheap overseas, and that may be a lot, but from what I've seen about federal dosing guidelines, one 10mL bottle=one dose (or 50 tabs), so at 250mg per mL that's 16 doses. It's not like 100 omnas or 5,000 tabs of dbol.
Oh, and it was sent EMS, so it turns into USPS once it gets here.
Fuck....

 

[blownvette]

HULKSTER: I just read "Although Oxandrolone itself does not cause a noticeable muscle growth it can clearly improve the muscle-developing effect of many steroids".
Do you agree with that? Is it not as strong as dbol?

 

[drrman]

ive seen packs sit there two weeks and actually be received and the tracking still says its in customs

Bro I know the source you are talking about. I am in the same boat as you except mine has been siting there for over a month. The reason its taking so long is probably cause they are running tests to identify the powders none the less you aint getting your pack but I would clean house just in case. Even if it comes now I would not sign for it, I know I am not signing for mine. The real problem is this guys packaging suck plain and simple. If he invested a little time and money into his packing he would do alot better. Not only that he has a resend policy. He claims he resent mine to a clean addy that I provided on the east coast but the tracking # wont track and its been 4 days since he sent. So anyway with all the crap thats going on it the world right now I would stick to domestic and pay a little extra.

exactly like i posted earlier.....online USPS tracking blows balls big time.

Well, it all depends on whether or not you are more concerned with gaining mass (dbols), or gaining a lesser amount of QUALITY mass, even though it will be of a lean nature (anavar). Also, virtually all gains made on anavar are kept, while a sizable amount of mass CAN (I didn't say WILL) be lost by using dbol due to the water retention/bloating. So it comes down to:

1. What is your more important goal: larger mass or more strength? For me, it's strength (so I choose anavar over dbol).

2. What can you afford? Dbol is dirt cheap, anavar is expensive.

CONCLUSION: ANAVAR gives less mass as compared to the mass gained on a Dbol cycle, but the mass gained by using Anavar will be a much leaner, higher quality mass that will be retained----as opposed to DBOL, which will have a significantly greater amount of retained water as part of the overall weight you gain while using it.

This is wrong. What are you copying what it says off the drug profiles and refrazing it in a way so it sounds like it's your thoughts???

Dianabol often gets a bad rap for being nothing more than a "bloating" drug.While it is true that the initial onset of weight gains are usually induced by estradiol influenced edema,once the drug has been administered for consecutive weeks,many subsequent anabolic reactions take place(more than are listed in this study)and true HYPERTROPHY is realized.And contrary to popular opinion,it does not all fade away after discontinuation.They don't call it the breakfast of champions for nothingEnjoy my brothas....

Effects of methandienone on the performance and body composition of men undergoing athletic training.

Hervey GR, Knibbs AV, Burkinshaw L, Morgan DB, Jones PR, Chettle DR, Vartsky D.

1. In a previous study of the effects of methandienone (Dianabol) on men undergoing athletic training, strength and performance increased, but not significantly more when the subjects were taking the drug than when they were taking placebo. The subjects did, however, gain more weight on the drug, with increases in total body potassium and muscle dimensions. It remained an open question whether the muscles had gained normal tissue or intracellular fluid. 2. In an attempt to distinguish between these possibilities the trial has been repeated, using as subjects seven male weight-lifters in regular training, and including measurements of total body nitrogen. As before, a dose of 100 mg of methandienone/day was given alternately with the placebo in a double-blind crossover experiment. The treatment periods lasted 6 weeks and were separated by an interval of 6 weeks. Body weight, potassium and nitrogen, muscle size, and leg performance and strength increased significantly during training on the drug, but not during the placebo period. 3. The finding of increased body nitrogen suggested that the weight gain was not only intracellular fluid. The increases in body potassium (436 +/- SEM 41 mmol) and nitrogen (255 +/- 69 g) were too large in proportion to the weight gain (2.3 +/- 0.4 kg) for this to be attributed to gain of normal muscle or other lean tissue, and imply gain of nitrogen-rich, phosphate-poor substance. Although this action of methandienone might be described as anabolic, the weight gain produced is not normal muscle.

 

[DeepZenPill]

What is wrong about his post? He stated that much of the mass gains on dbol are due to water retention (without an anti-aromatase) which is true. You reposted huck's thread that says the same thing: "While it is true that the initial onset of weight gains are usually induced by estradiol influenced edema..." Those studies you posted show that d-bol does cause hypertrophy, but during administration there will be temporary mass caused by water retention. And the info he posted is "common knowledge;" it is not necessarily taken from any profile site.

There's no need to flame and make wild accusations of plagiarism (yet again) if you're going to post misinterpreted studies.

 

[drug_against_war]

What the fuck does this dbol/anavar shit have to do with my post? Did these threads get mixed up somehow?
It seems like either way I won't be getting my shit. I hope they just seize it. Either way I ain't signing for shit...

I guess Juice Authority thinks that anytime someone posts common knowledge it has been copied. That's right, Juice Authority, it was Huckleberry Finnaplex who first came up with the idea for that post. Before that, NOBODY knew the difference between dbols and anavar. Thanks to Huck, a world of enlightenment has been brought to us...blah blah blah...cut the shit, Juice. This is the kind of nonsense that made Nelson Montana leave. You never offer anything constructive or any solid facts or advice of your own; all you do is skim my posts, as well as other EF members posts, and look for any little means possible to flame people. Grow up son.

Dude, what? Are you trying to reignite the whole Jibby Jabba - Citruscide flame war that developed on the Primo thread a few days ago? There is no comparison. Monkey see, Monkey do.

HULKSTER: I don't know what all that nonsense is about, but thank you for answering my question. Money is not a problem for me, but I want to bulk, so I don't know if Anavar will work for me.

SECONDLY: It was Juice Authority, not I or anyone else, who outright FALSELY accused me of copying Mod Huckleberry FINNaplex's article about dbols.

I did hijack your thread, and I'm sorry. I just saw an opportunity to gain some info from someone more knowledgable. I am actually very interested in your topic. Sorry.
