Obtaining spores in CA legally

I've seen plenty of posts in this forum asking how to obtain spores in California, and every thread has been locked. I was reading up on this law on Erowid, and it seems that as long as the spores originate in California, it might be legal for them to be shipped to California residents.
According to Erowid (http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_law8.shtml):
"There are three interesting things about the California law regarding spores. The law appears to state that it is only illegal to import spores into the state if there is intent to cultivate them into mushrooms. It is not specifically illegal to possess spores, it is only illegal to "transport, import into the state, sell, furnish, or give away" spores or mycelium. Technically, this means that possession of spores obtained from mushrooms inside the state, which are not bought or sold, are not illegal. Only viable spores appear to be illegal as the law specifically states that it is "spores or mycelium capable of producing mushrooms" which are illegal."
My question is, are there distributors located in California that can mail spores to a California address legally?

Get an out-of-state friend.
When I lived there 25 years ago, they were legal. I walked into a headshop and bought a print and a book, no problem. Sorry you can't...

use an out of state mail forwarding service. Have whatever you want sent to the forwarding service's location - out of state of course. Ten they send it to you.

This is probably the easiest way unless you have an out of state friend that will do it for you

and this one is going to be locked too!~ So why bother?
no there isn't any Spore distributors located inside of California... to beat the loop hole. that would mean that the illegal mushrooms would have to be grown inside of California to get spore prints.
there is several ways to get spores into California... but we aren't going to discuss this on the board!~ If you would like some idea's, send me a private message and we can discuss this further, in private.

This thread has been closed.
Reason: we don't discuss sending spores to California, Georgia and Idaho...on the boards.
