Unscheduled RCs question

[booms]

So im wondering how Customs deals with RCs that arent scheduled as illegal when they find them? Do they take them and send LL or do they just send them along since there not considered illegal unless there in pill form for consumption? Not that i personally am having any issues its just a topic ive never came across or seen talked about so it has me wondering.

A large number of RCs that are scheduled in various places and unscheduled will get confiscated in the senders country.  Ive known some people to receive packs that were found by customs, but customs still sent the pack through (rare). And many many people who received LLs.  They dont really have to prove its illegal as its more than obvious you are not a researcher (and cuz their customs and can just seize shit and you can contest it, but no way you would i would think).  If you dont receive an LL its really impossible to know if customs in origin county seized the pack (in which case you will not receive LL) or customs in destination country seized pack and just didnt send LL.

If something was opened and taped back together and sent to you, what would that mean?

@Shadowclone  Was the tape customs tape or just random tape?  Are you sure it wasn't just packed that way?  Customs will sometimes open packs and re-tape them and send them along, but it will be with green customs tape so its very obvious.  Sometimes they will open your pack, take out the contents, and put in an LL in its place and send that along.

I never encountered a instance where they put a love letter in the original package....   normally they come separate in their own envelope....

That's happened to me twice.   Original envelope, contents removed by cutting the side open (narrow end of envelope) and letter inserted, side taped.

I’m not a fan of the handheld IR spectrometers they now use in North America, Europe, and probably Asia and S. America too can tell them the compound(s) without even. Opening the bag... it’s gonna get harder to send magazines as time goes on.... it’s a damn shame!! My USPS mailman has been my go to guy for all my best dope for like 15 years... I don’t know what I’d do without him...

As a public service, should I post a little tutorial about how non-invasive imaging (esp. spectroscopy) works, and what flummoxes the various modalities?  I already kinda did this with Raman.  

I'm not the expert on IR that I am on Raman, but I could probaby put together something useful.  Assistance from anyone with deep experience in IR would also be awesome

What the hell??? Wow, I can't believe anyone is seriously thinking of using a handheld IR to identify compounds. Is this for real? Is this just for a 'presumptive' ID? And of all the detection methods, why IR and not MS?

It's the future. The states are loosening restrictions and the federal government wants to keep making money off the drug war and sending people to prison, so they are tightening them. 

Check out "Raman Spectroscopy". It basically means we're fucked until the states take back the country from the FDA, DEA, and CBP.

What we need is a Netherlands in the USA. Washington, Oregon, and Colorado seem to be the best candidates. Just like with legalizing MJ, billions could be made.
