I'd be interested to survey australian SR buyers who make purchases internationally on a regular basis to see what your success rate is - I'm currently on 20/20 successful deliveries to aus, with a bunch more in transit, and I'm just curious to find out what the "expected" rate of package loss is for australian buyers. From what I used to read I halfway expected to be losing a big chunk of those orders to customs but thus far the only package that I've had taken by customs (probably, don't know for sure yet) was an order to Finland.
Overall my international success rate is pretty good, I've had a run of bad luck recently loosing more in March than all my other no shows put together, thanks AFP you bunch of try hard pricks saving the world one letter at a time!
For some reason I've found the UK the hardest country to order from, statistically it should be one of the easiest but my track record has left me considering otherwise. I take the occasional long shot with a vendor but generally I choose very carefully and others I speak to have had no issues with the same vendors I've had no shows from.
I honestly think its a lottery sometimes as to what makes it and what doesn't, I've had some of the worst stealth you have ever seen land in my drops from o/s vendors then had no shows from others who claim to be using the best methods. I know you can obviously seriously reduce the chances of an intercept by using certain stealth and packaging methods but how some stuff gets though on occasions has me pondering what customs are actually looking out for.
Keep it simple, make it dog proof and blend in with the rest of the mail seems to be the best option for success.
Oh yeah and for anyone wondering, natural weed was the vendor with the atrocious stealth, I would avoid on that basis alone as I'd be amazed if anything could clear customs again, I think they were on smoko when my order came down the conveyer belt.
