You're all taking a serious risk sending spore prints to a country/state where they are illegal, if you think its a joke think again the only reason you got away with it was because you didn't get caught but I guarantee you that if customs finds the spore print they'll send it away for testing for verification purposes and then the person requesting spores to a black listed state/country will be here posting one of those "Well I didn't know so why are they arresting me" threads.
If it's illegal, don't do it.

I wasnt aware they were illegal in Aust??? they say there illegal in some other states like to these three states California, Idaho, and Georgia state law may restrict possession of these mushrooms spores without first receiving proper permissions from the applicable state agricultural or research advisory agency.
I have been doing alot of searches trying to find out what the go with it is as i am not a keen one to break laws and from what ive seen people are saying it is legal to have spore prints n Aust for microscopic purposes only which is fine for me cause that is all i intend to use it for anyway here is some text copied out of a post i found: however it is LEGAL to import mushroom spores into australia, provided you are doing so to study them under a microscope and not to grow psychadelic mushrooms.
Now im not saying this is a trusted source but heres the link anyway: http://bluelight.ru/vb/showthread.php?t=153717

OK so i found this aswell another post on some site i googled for info on this and from what i read i am thinking that she spores themselves are legal although the importation of living organisms may be illegal?? damn i am so confused now umm heres the link: http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7540&pid=65680&mode=threaded&start=
So now im sorta paranoid here i was thinking i was doing something completely legal now we must pray for the print in its time of quarantine and hope he finds hes way to the light!

Even if customs did find them, I find it highly unlikely you'd get arrested or anything. When it comes down to it, there's no illegal substance in them, and they're for "microscopy". And just having something w/ your name and address on it in the mail doesn't prove you ordered it. If it works anything like the US, they'd send you a letter in the mail saying they have a package for you, and to come down and claim it if you want. By going down there and claiming it, you're proving that it IS yours - but if you do nothing, that should be the end of the whole situation.
And if they are illegal, I'm not saying it's OK to send em - but I will say it's highly unlikely that you'd get caught. It's not like they're opening up letters and stuff like that. A print would be so easy to send - while a syringe would be a different story, but still not impossible to send.

Well that makes me feel a bit better will feel that much better when i recieve it thoe. Just wondering if by any chance it did get found by customs what sort or actions will they take? since itself is not illegal but the importation of biological substances is? and as it does have my name on it so could i get into trouble?

I have known people to ship cannabis in less than seven gram increments within the continental united states with no problem. I have known people to send LSD blotter through the mail as well. With the holidays coming and the influx of mail (I would assume) all over the world security has got to be a little more lax. Its a small piece of paper or foil, in an envelope pretty discreet.

Yeh i know chances are low but i dont like the idea of them finding it since it cost around $50! and i just read that fines can be of up to $60 000 read this from a thread i found: {I run an australian ethnobotany forum with a mycology section. I know two people personally who have been prosecuted for importing spore prints.
One was prosecuted under quarantine legislation [$2000 fine + court costs] and the other was prosecuted under state drug law [conviction, community hours, fine].
Some states list 'any part of Psilocybe spp' in their schedules.
Another person I know got raided after spore print interception by customs and they tried to prosecute him for 'intent to manufacture an illegal drug' on the basis of his books, computer documents, and other equipment he had in relation to mushroom cultivation.
It should be noted that the maximum penalties for quarantine offences have increased dramatically since the quarantine conviction [from $2,000 to $60,000], so getting busted this way may not be as cheap as it used to be. Also, when the quarantine folks raided this guy they came with federal police and state police in the hope that they could make some other charges stick by the way he responded in the on the spot video interview.}
The link is here: http://bluelight.ru/vb/showthread.php?t=376314&page=1 But the info i had copied was from page 2 of the thread

So basically i am thinking advise to anyone considering this is yes it is illegal yes there is a chance you could get it in and yes there is a chance you could get a fine so all in all to be safe dont get any prints from overseas.
