Paranoid now

Ok.... I had ordered 2 syringes 2 days apart from spore101 about 3 weeks ago. Now I received one of the syringes yesterday along with the regular mail I usually get. Today I look in the mail box, and there where only 2 pieces of mail which were card type catalogs which can easily be seen by anyone without opening with no envelopes at all . This is strange because I ALWAYS receive tons of credit card offers and such in the mail everyday, at least 4 or 5 a day. This has got me paranoid. Im thinking that they may have found the other syringe, and have seized all my mail. Can someone explain to me what happens when they find syringes. I know its not illegal to possess, but how do they know what it is. What do you all think? Should I be worried

Spores are sold for microscopic research, so they have no reason to confiscate them.
Unless you live in a country that has strict regulations on bringing in organic material.
You shouldnt order from spores101 either, alot of people are having problems with them. use a vendor, they are trusted.
I very much doubt they have seized all your mail.

So you don't get junk mail one day and now your tripping out? This should be a good day. I highly doubt you can judge what is going on due to the lack of junk mail in your box. Take a deep breath and relax. Besides, you were not going to grow them right? They were just for microscopic research.

Maybe they got their wires crossed and they thought you only ordered one??
I suggest you contact vendor through private message.
IN the future: Your first investment should be a P.O. Box. Either that or a friends house that has nothing sketchy ever. Security is always the number one consideration of all operations. That makes a great mantra.

Maybe the person who processed your order knew you were a paranoid skitzo, and wanted to have fun with you... He shipped them out a few days apart just to fuck with you.

IMHO your better off just ordering it to your house, involving other people(even, "friends") is a horrible idea, and is a great way to get caught. Be known to be in possession of a microscope, and there really is no way in hell that cops can get probable cause to search your house.

You're number one problem is that you ordered from Spores 101...a racket that has a ton of shipment problems, a racket that sends out dead syringes, and a racket I wouldn't trust if I were you. You should use shroomery sponosors -- they are A1+++

Wish i could but I got a sore throat right now. Anyway, im just curious as to what the DEA does when they do find these things. Im sure they cant just say, only spores, and that is it. How would they know it wasnt illegal drugs or something. They would have to test it, and therefore somehow notify me that they did such a thing. I have seen first hand the DEA at work, and they just open up boxes left and right, and im sure as hell they would take notice to a syringe full of some unknown liquid if they found it. So I dont know, Im not trembling you all, im cool, I was just curious as to what would happen if LEO did find something. As you know I am studying these things, and wouldnt want a cop stormin in my house and possibly knocking over my telescope.

I know that already, I ordered the Our Choise 4 pack special from Sporeworks. Got the 3 day select and its here tomorrow. When I first came to this sight, and being new to the forum (didnt know the site too well) all I saw when searching for vendor was Spores101 kicks ass. Turns out, those threads were from at least a year ago.

Both good ideas. Not to hijack the thread, but does anyone know of some cheap yet good microscopes. Also, some good resources for studying/identifying characteristics of certain spores and microscopy in general?

You mean microscope.
The spores themselves are not illegal, and I don't think that there is a DEA officer stationed at every post office, or any post office for that matter, who is allowed to just rip open any package he feels like. I believe there are certain suspicious elements that must be present for a package to be legally searched. If a vendor is reputable, they will keep the package as inconspicuous as possible, thus exonerating your package from search.
How did your first package come? That's most likely how your second package will be, probably very discreet and low key I would imagine.
It's most likely an error of address, or just lazyness on spores 101's part that is delaying your package. Either way, I'd contact them to find out the deal. And definitely chill out.
