MJ seeds to P.O. Box

http://pe. usps.gov/text/dmm/D910.htm#Xbr4476 I just have one about the P.O. Box. I plan on ordering marijuana seeds, which of course are illegal in the US, and was wondering, I am putting myself at a greater risk by ordering them to a government building then to my own place? I mean, ordering something illegal to have a government agency hold it for me? That makes me a little nervous. I originally was going to order everything to there, but ordering a bong to the post office...I don't think so, I think I'll just order that to my place, but about those seeds? Also, it says you need to have two forms of identification, and that one of them must have a picture I.D. - Well, I good with that (license) but then it says that a birth certificate is unacceptable. Now, were they saying it was unacceptable to that fact that you can't just bring that, you need picture I.D. or that it is an unacceptable form of identification and they won't count that towards the 2 pieces that you need.

well, first off, you probably dont want a direct URL to a federal website in a thread about your plans on breaking the law...I'd edit that. I would avoid this. sure you might get away with it but it's always a good idea to avoid any papertrail. papertrail = retarded. signing up for a PO Box for sole reason of importing cannabis seeds from another country is just a bad move. you're creating opportunities to get busted. cant you find some seeds locally? or at the very least have it sent to a safe location that isnt linked directly to you? be paranoid and discreet.

Well I got that link out of the sticky at the top of this page. Also, my sole purpose will not be to just use it for mj seeds. Everything I end up ordering would just go there.

Look for people in the Marketplace to trade you seeds.

No, I mean I want to order from a seed vendor and basically was asking the risks involved in ordering seeds to a P.O. Box. Now, they probably aren't high, because what are the chances that a mailman is snooping around my stuff? Not likely at all... Edit: should say want not have

yes, you'd probably get away with it, but the point is to minimize all chances of being busted. In my opinion, using a PO Box in your own name just creates more possibilities of unwanted trouble. there must be better and more discreet options.
when committing felonies, you cannot afford to be sloppy or play "what are the chances..." game.
minimize or eliminate all possible bust opportunities.

If you have a UPS store near you I would say get a PMB their, that's what I got, I've never had cannabis seeds sent there, but I've had other stuff sent there, they only require one form of ID, it's actually cheaper to rent a box there than the post office, they give you not only a key to your box but also a key to the store so you can go get your mail even after business hours, and it's not a government run building so I'm sure that's alittle more comforting. and no, things that come to the box don't have to be sent UPS.

also, you don't have to wait 2-3 days to get an application reveiwed like at the post office, you just walk in fill out a form, show them your ID, they give you the keys, and you on your way. when I first went there I was in and out in 15 minutes. good luck, by the way

nah man, cannabis seeds are definatly not legal in the US. notice all those seed companies in high times are mostly based in canada and holland, they say they will ship them here but they don't really tell you anything about you having trouble reciving them. from what I understand seeds used to be legal though, I wonder when and why they made them illegal. probably worth me lookng it up.

a private store wont be any safer than a post office - why would it be? they both follow the same drug laws; any decent owner/management is not going to do anyone a favor at the expense of their business.

There is something about ordering to a privately owned business rather then a government agency that gives me a certain level of comfort.

I understand that, but I fail to really see the legal differences - both parties seem to be bound by the same laws. false sense of security, perhaps.

Only in the tracking of said seeds.
Bottom line, they're illegal in the U.S.

could buy some rives seeds with them. they look very similar to a dummy. i get stuff ordered to my po box with no problems. as long as teh box doesnt look suspicous. ive only had 1 package opened so far that i know of and it did have illegal stuf fin it. they didnt even realize or remove it. they dont seem to bright. i would get the seeds mailed seperatly as well. pretty obvious what they are when they are with a bong and what not.

I didn't plan on ordering the bong with the seeds, that would just be stupid. I also plan on ordering the bong to my house, it's just a bong - really no danger ordering that

When you say they opened your package, I thought that legally the post office cannot open anyone's mail unless they get some kind of court order? Some Postal Act or Mail Act Don't quite remember the name, but How UPS or Fedex or some place like that can legally open any piece of mail sent through them, but how the post office can't.

The U.S. Customs service opens packages all the time without warrants. Fed Ex, UPS and other companies may allow the customs service to do this, but they themselves will not do this because it's bad for business and opens them up for lawsuits. If they have a suspicious package, they are more inclined to call the authorities than to take it upon themselves to violate their customers' trust.
