Question about USPS
#18025432 - 03/28/13 07:17 PM (11 years, 1 month ago) |
|

Hi all! I'm new to the whole shrooming hobby and have a few questions about the USPS. I'll be conducting my first grow during the summer when I'm back at my parents house and not in a dorm. For my first grow I'll be using PF TEK and will be buying spore syringes from [Vendor]. Understandably, I would rather not have this delivered to my parents doorstep as they would open it without a second thought. My question is how do I get USPS to hold that one package for pickup? Do I have to work it out with [Vendor] too?
Thanks everyone!

Sorry, I removed the vendors name. It's literally as easy as calling USPS up and saying I want to hold a package?

You should probably consider growing at a safe house.
If for some reason you get caught and the grow is found in your parents house,they with most likely be charged,not you.
Anywho, you can get them to hold your package.

When you have the tracking number and access the USPS/tracking website - there is usually a "hold for pick-up" option you can select.
Then you can just grab it from your local post office.

 If they don't know, it wouldn't be fair to put their property and freedom in jeopardy.

They could cop to that, but it would have to be proven and court involves legal fees and lost hours at work, in the least. It's still a possibility they would lose property and freedom; but at the least they would be out a lot of cash and greatly inconvenienced.

Fail boat man! Growing at the folks house is a total fuck up. Disrespectful, they could lose their House, incur tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, plus they will lose all respect and trust for you if they find out. Wait till you have your own place, if you can't wait, you are into the wrong hobby, mycology is all about patience, here is your oppurtunity to test your most valuable asset when engaged in mycology....... Patience I hope you don't fuck your parents over for your own selfish desires.

You need to just find a place that isn't a dorm, and do it there in the fall.

 Furthermore, holding a package for pick-up may draw attention to it, especially if it's out of the ordinary and you live in a small town.

Which wouldn't be a factor until it got to court. In the meantime, the cops seize the house, along with all assets and cash. You can't even afford a lawyer until after trial, if your money is given back.
