That's actually legal. Those are dried poppy pods, and people use them a lot for crafts and dried flower arrangements. So they aren't considered drugs, just craft items.

Plenty of people use poppy tea, putty, or powder to stave off illness.

You act like this one thread will make a difference, theres over 30 posts in the pub alone that talks about ebay and poppies... Another 30+ in odd. And by the way it looks to me is ebay is still selling pods. Quit bitchin, your actin like you cant get your meds or something.

The same way people legally sell thousands of dollars worth of nitrous oxide chargers on ebay every month. It's not specifically prohibited unless it's proven that they are used for human consumption/abuse.
And you might want to edit out that link before this thread gets closed for providing drug sources.

 A source for legals that no vendors here sell by my knowledge, perfectly legit for the site. You never said anything about you using PODS, i said, Quote:
your acting like you cant get your meds
If you honestly think this post is gonna shutdown the ebay pod business, you my friend are a dumbass.

Nobody is saying this one post is going to get the pod stores shut down
That said, why bring undue attention to it? Eventually, when people are idiots, it WILL be shut down.

Not reading are we? Its just ornamental pods, legal. No vendors here sell them, so im just about 80% sure posting a link to ebay on this website is legit. Its kind of like saying you cant link walmart for selling clothes, or any store for selling anything.

It's technically not legal at all. Poppy straw is a class 1 controlled substance. It is not legal to posses it even for ornamental purposes. However, it has been done for so long that most people just overlook it. I have used them for years and I absolutely cringe when someone brings it up. These things don't need any more undue attention. Please help keep the attention away from this wonderful loophole in our drug hating system.

If you live in the united states I think its pretty hard to get caught. Its shipped from within the states...meaning its illegal for anyone to check your packages. They can only search foreign packages. Its pretty damn safe.

Wrong. It is not illegal for "THEM" to search your packages in the United States. It was illegal to search USPS packages without probable cause until the Patriot Act came into effect. However with probable cause it was always legal for them to search your packages. With FEDEX and UPS you sign a contract that allows them to search any package for any reason. I don't know where people get this shit.
