Increased Seizure Rate as of Late? - Allegory - 06-07-2015
I've experienced a disturbing uptick in the number of packs lost to customs over the last six months or so.
Since I order bulk exclusively (I like to make one large order quarterly and negotiate pricing), this has meant a LOT of lost revenue for my vendors.
They've been great about it, but the delays and losses are so out of the normal patterns I'm used to over the past years.
Say I get my shipments split into roughly 12 packs each quarter. It used to be that I'd lose one every 20 or so.
This last three months I'm at an 8/12 success rate. This is multiple vendors, different addresses.
Has anyone else experienced an uptick in LLs and customs issues?

Count your lucky stars hippy. I've been in this game for maybe 18 yrs. and got my 1st LL a couple of months ago.
I guess that if you're ordering online long enough, they will get you at some time. For your sake I hope not.
Another thing that I probably already said here is, I've been told that if you use express shipping, they (customs) take a harder look at those packages and many of them are seized. It might be best to go with the regular mail and have a better chance of it getting thru.
Oh, that LL I got was the 1st time I used express shipping, so I won't do that again.
Good luck at staying a virgin LOL

An friend of mine had never ordered from a vendor. He got a LL on his first order. Needless to say he was pretty mad, even though I had warned him. This was a month ago and he has received a package from the same vendor since then. But I have noticed a lot of packages from the country where ppe2u and others are located have seemed to have an increased seizure rate over the past.

I fear I may have doomed us all! What have I done?!?!
RE: Increased Seizure Rate as of Late? - Charon - 06-14-2015
i would read of the receipt of many a LL at last list i built. or, be informed via PM or email.
no rhyme nor reason. happening to small orders. larger orders.
have gotten one in about last 8 years. used the vendor again. never occurred again.
i did post at never never land, that, someday soon, we shall hear what the alphabet boys r calling these seizures. Operation Pain in da arse, for now.
just please be careful.

Yeah, I'd like to know how much money is spent on the war on drugs. The government should realize by now they can't win...but we all know that there is more to it. Who would fill all the prisons in the u.s. without drug users?

Show some repect to our over worker postal system/workers. JK no rhyme or reason why they do what they do or don't do.
