Quote from: CharasBros on August 26, 2012, 06:55 amsome times ago AFP posted data that 80% intercepts based on prior intel. They already expecting package, or watching for address, so it got intercepted. In AU many people going prescription way, obtaining prescription and then buying controlled items. Later same guy orders here and I would attribute 99% of lost mails on SR to buyers stupidity. There is no such things happening in private scene.Yes exactly, I've thought that for a long while now. There's an ocean of legal drugs flowing through the postal system, not necessarily legal in the sense of not being scheduled, but illegal in the sense of not being prescribed or else prohibited by the Customs + Doctors Assocs + WesternPharma holy trinity legal Cartel in practice even if not in law. In particular, a huge amount, hundreds of millions, of Westerners are figuring out they can get the equivalent generic meds from abroad at a tiny fraction of the price in the West, sometimes saving them up to 30-40% of their income if they are an OAP.There are criminal activities going on in the postal system, and it sure ain't us! We're providing a service however you look at it! Regular civilians are getting raped up the ass on a daily basis here by these 21st century highway men.The majority of illicit product seized, was probably either initially thought to be what this legal Cartel thought was "counterfeit" (protip: counterfeit doesn't mean medication that doesn't do what it's supposed to, 99% of the time it really means medication that wasn't 'allowable' by this Cartel in the West, where every med that isn't brand name or whose manufacturer isn't providing kickbacks is 'counterfeit'), or else from prior intel like CharasBros said.This is another reason to stick to Standard Mail, the faster your delivery, the more customs paperwork filled out, the more likely you're to get a package intercepted by these clowns thinking it's non taxed tobacco, generics from India/China or steroids. This is backed up by the interviews we had with JanetReno and other people working with the post office system, they burn uncountable tons of all kinds of drugs in big furnaces periodically, most of which are legit. Incredible degree of resource destruction is going on.Another tip: the best way to minimize possible prior intelligence gathering for personal use buyers, apart from all the other precautions about using respectable vendors yaddayadda, is to do one 1 package at a time to your address, wait until it arrives before reordering. This sucks for people from Australia or New Zealand due to the long delivery times, but that's a problem that will gradually alleviate itself over time (I see postal drones in the future... :)). Everybody else should really be doing that though, it's sensible, boring and very annoying, but probably for the best.
