Shipping Marijuana Through The US Mail

PostalWorkerAccording to the U.S. government, more marijuana is being shipped these days through the U.S. Mail than ever before (see the link). The U.S. Postal Service has seen marijuana seizures increase by more than 400 percent since 2007. “There is no better way to ship drugs right now,” said San Diego Police Chief William Lansdowne. “It’s going up all the time.” Marijuana shipments are up, while other drugs are on the decline. Between 2008 and 2009, there were fewer seizures of cocaine, heroin, opium, and methamphetamine.

Postal Service Inspectors recently found what appeared to be canned corn. But when inspectors opened the cans, they found bags of marijuana inside. The bags were heat sealed, the weight was the same as what was listed on the label of the can, and the can was professionally sealed to lock in the smell. The amount of marijuana seized by inspectors, has increased every year since 2005. There was an 84 percent increase from 2007 to 2008 and a 180 percent increase between 2008 and 2009. Inspectors seized 8,453 lbs in 2007, 15,521 lbs in 2008, and 43,403 lbs of marijuana in 2009. Despite the growing amount of seizures, the amount of inspectors has stayed the same during this time span.

An estimated 75 percent of marijuana seized by the Post Office has originated in four states; Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. However, this does not mean that other areas are not seeing marijuana shipments. Recently, a woman in South Dakota received 50 lbs of marijuana in the mail, which she thought was a television. “It was not what she expected,” said local Sheriff Duane Mohr, “It had an international post stamp on it, but they were crafty enough to print off a return address label with a Motorola logo on it just to make it look legitimate.”

There are 1,614 inspectors at United States Post Offices. They use K-9’s to assist in the searches, but it is like searching for a needle in a hay stack. However, it hasn’t stopped 1,278 people from going to jail in 2009, for trying to mail marijuana. The U.S. Postal Service offers a $50,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of people trying to mail marijuana via the U.S. mail system.

Have you ever tried to ship marijuana through the mail? I only know one person that had the balls to do it, but he was successful! He shipped a quarter pound of supers to his son in Texas. He did all the classic stuff like heat seal it, with fabric softener sheets inside of the heat sealed bag. Then he rolled it in syrup, then in coffee grounds, and then heat sealed it again. He wrapped the entire thing in layers of plastic wrap and put it in a box with some more coffee. At the time I told him he was throwing a QP down the toilet, but his son confirmed that it arrived, and that he was smoking it in his bong!

    We are a patient group from Florida and we have a strong demand in Miami, Tampa, and Orlando. I am in need of potentially a large volume of high grade marijuana if it can be shipped meticulously discrete… Our source currently is within the state and charges high prices and offers no variety… We are interested in finding a better source with better grade bud and perhaps more variety at a lower cost… Please email me back and let me know what you have to offer.

    Please.  I bet a good deal of you fools are feds.  Haven’t any of you read that there has been an increase in pot being mailed via USPS and how they are looking harder for it?  You want it that bad?  Move to Colorado, establish a “permanent” residence, get a Colorado ID, see a “doctor” for $100, send in a MMJ application for $35, then presto!  Or, go to Boulder, CO and look for the guy with the dreadlocks and the backpack who smells of BO.  90% certain that people who fit that description are carrying something to sell.

  • El Jeffe

    I have some experience with shipping and would suggest the following:
    1) you want to use USPS.
    They need a warrant to open your box. FedEx and UPS do not. 2) You want to
    conceal the smell. All
    carriers use dogs these days. Dryer sheets, plastic food wrap, etc will not
    work with dogs, as they can easily “smell through” any masking odor.
    Think of it like this: a dog’s world is populated by and dominated by odors,
    much like our world is dominated by what we see. Trying to mask an odor with
    another odor fools not the dog – it would be like trying to hide a color from a
    sighted person by putting a different color next to it. An example of this that
    any dog owner should know is poop sniffing and butt sniffing. Do you imagine that
    dogs sniff butts and poop because they like the stench? No, they are merely
    identifying the dog that laid the poop. Glands in the dog’s anus lace their
    poop with an odor unique to that specific dog. Dogs build a map of their dog
    neighborhood by sniffing the butts of all the other dogs they encounter and
    when they sniff a poop pile they know which dog had been there to lay it
    because they can smell the glandular excretion from the guilty dog in the pile.
    So ANY dog can smell minute amounts of this glandular excretion mixed in with
    overpowering poop stench – something that would make a human wretch (Rush
    Limbaugh, O’Reilly, and Hannity being the exceptions. They are used to smelling
    the shit that is constantly dribbling from their mouths). Do you think you can
    fool such an animal with dryer sheets or pepper? I don’t, and you can’t. 3) If
    you want to protect your stash from dogs, you need an odor ELIMINATING bag.
    Pot smell easily leaches through Foodsaver bags and the like. If you don’t
    believe me, try this simple experiment: Wrap some stinky weed in a Foodsaver
    bag. Put it in a new, airtight plastic box for a few days. Open the box. You
    will smell the weed. Easily. To ship, I protect myself by using the Gonzo Bag,
    which at $45 for a 1.5 lb capacity bag is cheap insurance. It uses activated
    charcoal (AC) in double walled sandwich design bag. The AC absorbs 100% of the
    odor and traps it inside the bag. Try the same experiment as above with the
    Gonzo Bag. You won’t smell anything but plastic box even a
    month later. You can order them online at http://www.gonzobags.com. I think they have 3 or 4 sizes now for
    different prices.

    I have been shipping medical
    grade ounces for several years to a handful of select customers.  Indoor grown. Organic. NO PESTICIDES    These areÂÂ
    my own personal strains that I have developed over the years as a
    patient.  Whether it is for pain, sleep,
    focus or appetite, I have something that will work for you.  I am not looking for someone who
    resells,  I want someone who buys this
    for themselves.  I do not sell or ship
    more than 2 ounces at a time. Please do not ask if I will ship more than 2
    ounces.   This is some of the best you will ever come
    across.  Once you have convinced me that
    you are serious, I will provide free samples of what I grow.   I do not play games, and will not tolerate
    anyone who does.   Price is the same for
    all ounces, $300.00     Shipping in
    Continental US only.  Please respond to
    this email only,  don’t leave a post. If
    you come across like a pothead, please don’t expect a reply from me.  Please do not contact me with grow questions
    or asking if I know where to get pounds.

    If anybody says there shipping weed and they have the best prices its a scam, don’t do it to your self, this guys is scamming people like crazy right now “cbluenow@gmail.com” champ blue. they use western union, bank accounts and money gram, don’t be a victim. ÂÂ

    • Eljeffe

      One dead giveaway that cbluenow is a scammer: the prices. No one sells at those prices. Even for crap bud. In person, if you are buying quantity (e.g., > 20 lbs) you can get great bud for $1,600. If you have the right connect, and those don’t grow on trees. But on the Internet? Nope. Even in the Green Triangle itself, to get decent bud you will pay $2,200 to $2,800, depending on the quality and the level in the food chain of your connection. I know because I live here and I deal with these guys every day. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is. Shame on you cbluenow! What a shit bag.

    I wonder if the Nigerians have caught onto this for a scam idea? Some nice folks from there tried to scam me from a Craigslist ad last year. It was pretty easy to figure out, though. Really easy. Those folks tend to give you WAY more information that you need, much of it totally extraneous. I guess they think the more complex their lies are, the harder they are to figure out. Ha. Having said that, there are folks on this site that are honest, non-law enforcement types who do want to help their brothers make a connection. I would suggest talking to the person on Skype video, which has 256 bit encryption when used peer to peer, and suss the connection out thoroughly before making any deals. I just did this with a gentleman in OH and we got to know each other, showed the product, and set things up. Both parties are happy now and all is right with the world. Is it a little risky? Yes. You have to have good instincts and trust your gut.ÂÂ
