mailing spores to a different state

Hi everyone,
I just joined the site today. I've been reading a lot of the forums but decided to go ahead and make an account so I can join some of the conversations.
I am interested in doing some microscopy at home. The only problem is that I live in a state where I cannot order spores. I live only an hour or so from the border, so I am contemplating getting a P.O. Box in a different state and having the spores sent there. Does this sound like a good idea, or are there risks involved that I am not aware of that would make this decision not worth it?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

getting spores is pretty low risk. you can buy them with a credit card, no one cares

Thanks for the reply. Do you know of any vendors who will ship to the 3 states (Georgia, Idaho, California) that don't allow spores? I have contacted 2 vendors and they both politely reminded me that they do not ship to my state. Should I just keep trying different vendors until someone complies?

I think I just found a few other threads that help me a bit. I'm getting the vibe that it's not cool to post about shipping to the 3 aforementioned states, so I'll leave it at that. I'm new to the site so still learning.

We don't condone illegal activities here. With that said, you could probably do that. Where there's a will, there's a way.
Just don't plan on growing them, they're for microscopes only. I can't wait to get one for christmas this year lol

Gotcha, yea, I'm taking a Mycology class at the local community college and I grew curious about the ones that we don't look at in class so thought I would do some personal research. Guess I'll just look at some more oysters under my microscope!!

Judging by your name and considering the 3 states that don't allow spores.....I'm gonna say you live in georgia.

Clever as you are You may be off by far Though two states harbor oaks The third may hide my jokes
The tree that I opine Lies near the western line Unless my oak does thrive With Spanish Moss alive

You may think I'm insane Hitting your slopes ripped on cocaine But part of the fun Is being naked in the sun
I now know why your name is oaktree Instead of beautiful sea Get to know some cool folks here And in your mailbox, spores may appear

To Bodhisatta - thanks for the "click here to learn how to shroomery" link. I'm glad there's a noob forum so I don't annoy too many people with my newbie questions ha! You are a true Bodhisattva.
