It seems that SR doesn't solve the major problem for buyers: you have to name a postal address and that address will be printed on a package containing illicit goods.
Any bad experiences with customs or have you been using in-country sellers exclusively? Any tricks to obscure your real address?
(Since these have mostly been answered below already: do you stick to a fixed group of sellers or go by price?)
- sruser 14y agoI touched on this in some other replies, but basically, I use my real name/address, try to use domestic sellers as much as possible, and have never lost a package to USPS/customs.
- olalonde 14y agoI assume some people rent a postal box under a fake ID.
- jacques_chester 14y agoIn countries where the incrimination standard is reasonable doubt, that you received a package addressed to you is not really a slam dunk proof that you ordered the contents. Furthermore, in countries where you enjoy a right to refuse to say anything that may incriminate you, you may simply refuse to explain how or why the package was sent to you. The prosecution will need to positively prove that you ordered it, which is a much harder task if the seller doesn't cooperate. (IANAL, TINLA).
- revelation 14y agoNobody will ever be convicted for some package, so much is clear. But thats not the point. That package is enough to get a judge to sign off on a search warrant. And in my country, there is no "fruit of the poisonous tree" principle - even if the search is found to be unlawful afterwards, the majority of findings are admissible.
