Thread: customs and powders

Hey I figured I would share my experience so far with us customs and powders. So a couple weeks ago I ordered some raw test powder nothing crazy 100grams got tracking and everything for it. It's been sitting at customs since april 1st so my supplier told me i should contact customs to see whats up so i figured alright. Talked to the guy he said he has to verify the contents of the package so he asked whats in it I told him it was l-carnitine powder vitamins or whatever and he said thats kind of what we found and theyre just waiting to have the guys field test it tomorrow. They normally come once a week to test packages with powders in them he said and they said once they test it theyll release the package tomorrow and update traking. I know some people waited 30 days to receive their powders before or had their packs sit at customs for a while. But I would imagine they only test for ur basic narcotics and explosive chemicals and what not and havent heard of too many powders being seized or anything. I'm not going to stress about it for now but def going to clean house after tomorrow if it doesn't update. It's going to a po box. I'll keep you guys posted and let you know how things go.

Every package that comes from another country has a declaration form with what the contents of the package is. It gives a brief description of what is inside. Most of the time, if the contents look like they match the declaration form they let it through.

lmao, in reality it doesnt make it "suspicious" If i was working there I would say fuck him, he has to wait a another week!

so true ,and it's what i have been trying to tell shippers all the time

BUMP ^^^^^^
I was just trying to say that in a nice way..

I always felt as if a PO box was a red flag

hey gdl ....if your info is on the recivers ?? what did you mean when you said that bro? can you explain?

That was not smart at all. You shouldn't of called at all. You just admitted youself to that package.

^^^ What Musclemind said^^^
Way to much for me to handle...
