Oh. So that's where it is...

I will investigate the joints

Everyone knows to ship your pot through DHL. Jeez

They marijuana think about using USP next time.

Didn't we learn anything from Beverly Hills Cop? You ship it in coffee beans, not fabric softener.

In other news: Sgt. Stedenko heads investigation over apparent theft of 18lbs of prime, high quality, hydroponic evidence. Tommy Chong cited as a "person of interest".

i had a busty female friend explain to me how she hid a chillum and some herb in her bra at the airport. i would never try transporting herb at an airport, the k9 units freak me out. though, come to think of it, i don't see many k9 units at the airports. with my luck they would be on duty and patrolling my gate if i ever did try to smuggle something tho

$190 per ounce weed? Ehh ... not bad.
 
2007-07-13 02:02:04 PM
Is this the thread where everyone reveals how much they pay for an illegal substance?

FTFA: Ritchhart said the high grade marijuana in the box weighed 18.8 pounds and had a street value of about $57,000.

$3,032 / lb. = $190 / oz.
 
2007-07-13 02:04:24 PM
They wouldn't have made much money after shipping expenses.

/What can brown do for you?

for every time this doesn't work, how many times does it actually work? and after you answer that tell me about the tree in the forest..

"Is this some kind of bust?" "Yes, it's quite impressive."

the legal system wants to make a blunt point by throwing these guys in the dankest of chambers.
 
2007-07-13 02:07:45 PM
I hope they got a tracking number.

It's already been said, but if $190/oz. is what "high grade marijuana" goes for in Florida, I'm moving.

/$400/oz. in these parts, or so I hear.

It use to be that FedEx didn't report on contents, and if they somehow found out they where delivering contraband they would destroy the package. I guess they don't do that anymore. I have an old service guide around here somewhere in which they guarantee privacy, and under no circumstances will they try to gain knowledge of what is contained in the package. I guess the times are changing.

Also, fabric softener? Give me a break. Around here drug distributors use those food saver vacuum packers and wash the sealed bags in the bathtub before sending them FedEx. How stupid... nm, it's Florida.

....a FedEx package sent from Texas ....the high grade marijuana in the box weighed

"High-grade" pot in Texas is mexi-brick that's only 20% seeds instead of 50% seeds?

I had a friend in college who mailed hash from Amsterdam to his friends in the US using regular mail. In the early 90s I knew a guy in San Francisco who got all his weed mailed to him through FedEx. I think it was wrapped in peanut butter IIRC.

They will investigate....what snozberries taste like.

What a farking waste of my tax dollars.

2007-07-13 02:21:22 PM
Pfft, amateurs.

A dude in a nearby small town used to get 100 lb shipments every week via UPS. Then he started bragging about it every time he'd get drunk in the local bar, which as, from what I understand, just about every day.

The KBI put an end to that eventually.

Heh, for frequent travelers - if you haven't noticed yet - your boarding pass will be printed with 4 S's (SSSS) if you are to be "extra searched" at the security checkpoints at all major airports in the US.

I think the 4 S's originally were intended to catch terrorists. They probably figured out the SSSS thing before I did even.

If you get the 4 S's just go to a kiosk and reprint your boarding pass, most of the time they go away.

Just look for the dogs before you get in line, duh!

Vacuum sealed bags are old and busted. Activated charcoal is the new hotness.

mobombhead: You ship it in coffee beans, not fabric softener.

I had a friend serving in Iraq who I would send care packages. He asked me to send him coffee, so I loaded up a box with 10lbs of coffee. The MPs search the entire contents of the box when he picked up the package.

A chillum is usually a straight glass tube ending in a bowl slightly larger than a hitter, for being discrete in public about it.

/Brownies you say??

I stand by my '80s movie knowledge of how to ship drugs.

That is my point in the military at least the dogs have been trained to hit on large amounts of coffee, or so my friend told me.

Bah, vacuum bags work great. The charcoal is for really paranoid (most potheads are, come to think of it) who usually use it in addition to the bags. I grew up in the Matanuska Valley, for those of you who know what that means.
 
2007-07-13 02:52:03 PM
They can't arrest the person it was addressed to, as it's not illegal to have somebody send you mail. Keystone cops sting operation? You wait until the guy signs for the package, not before. All the person has to say is "Nope. Don't know anything about that. Never heard of the person who sent it."
 
2007-07-13 02:52:06 PM
"That is my point in the military at least the dogs have been trained to hit on large amounts of coffee"

The army is fully prepared to deal with 1980's technology and tactics.

Let's see. Florida criminal masterminds - actually they were from Texas.
Get busted - Nobody got busted in the article I read.

It would be nice if submitters went back to reading the articles instead of coming up with cutesy but inaccurate headlines. Maybe someone should write a book about it.
