Reciving Prints by mail,...safe???

Ok so i live in the US, and I want to order some prints from FSRC (Free Spore Ring Canada). I send them an envelope wit $1 and a self addressed envelope, and they send me back an evelope with a print in it. Is this a safe way of getting prints? Legally no one except me can open the envelope right? If for some reason law enforcment or whatever opens the envelope and finds a print being sent to me, will I be charged? any help, would be great.
This is the only thing I worried about before I start growing.

prints arent illegal. if you intend to use them for their legal purpose of microscopy then there is no problem.
it is a felony for anyone else but you to open you mail, but thats in the us, and you are having it shipped from canada. so when it crosses into the country it may be searched. probably not though.
but all in all it is legal for you to order spores and posess them, and lok at them, as long as you dont live in ca or ga

Don't be afraid!!!!
Prints, spores or syringes with spores and water in them ARE NOT ILLEGAL!!! in the USA except in Georgia and California
Now if you plan on growing those spores out, thats a different story

Get your spores form a shroomery vendor, it is well worth it! But to answer your question it is not illegal to purchase spores for mycological studies. it is however illegal to purchase spores for growing (get my drift?). All of the shroomery vendors are very good in providing quality spores, and they also have very good customer service! Good luck in studing mycology!

What would happen if for whatever reason the postal inspectors,or whoever,did open your mail and it had a syringe in it.I know they are legal,but would they just seal it back up and send it,or would they hasssle you,or what do you think?
