Countries I should avoid shipping from to NZ?

So I'm looking to get some substances sent to me in NZ, and am now currently in the process of choosing a vendor. I want to narrow down the vendors to only those of non alarming countries. Was originally going to get sent from aussie but the vendor ran out, so now I'm left deciding between countries such as UK, Germany, Sweden, USA etc. Is there any country anyone would recommend as relatively unalarming to customs or any countries I should specifically avoid? Thanks.

I have experience with several orders and study everything I can about stealth and law enforcement/customs procedures. If you religiously watch Border Patrol and Border Security you can get a pretty good idea of the operational procedures of customs and you can also get a pretty good idea of what people who get caught do to fuck up.

First, if the vendor follows basic stealth guidelines (MBB and printed address, business letter appearance etc), the likelihood that your package is just randomly going to be detected by a sniffer dog is VERY unlikely.

The key technique used by customs to intercept packages is PROFILING. They have a bunch of red flags and tick boxes which will alert them that the package is suspicious.

1) Country of origin - DO NOT ORDER FROM THE NETHERLANDS!!! They will give extra scrutiny to any package coming from there. Likewise for other dodgy countries. South America, etc. etc.

2) Packaging - If you vendor is reputable it shouldn't be a problem. If the package is poorly wrapped, has obviously got 100 layers of tape wrapped around it, has handwritten address, no invoice, no customs declaration, no return address, wrong postage, looks like it comes from an individual rather than a business; then expect customs to take a closer look.

3) Delivery address - If you have your package sent to 'Smokey McPot' or another obviously made up name they will take another look. If your address is an abandoned building or a 'for sale' house the mailman may be suspicious. Also if lots of international packages start showing up out of the blue it may raise a red flag.

As for you original question, here is what I consider safe countries of origin for orders:

Europe - UK, France, Germany, Italy. I would avoid Spain and Eastern Europe.

USA

Canada

I haven't done an order from China, but I suspect that due to the volume of packages from there plus free trade agreements that packages may be less likely to be intercepted as long as the vendor has good stealth practices.

I would also avoid South America, India, Africa, and most of Asia.

IF YOU GET A VISIT FROM CUSTOMS: DENY DENY DENY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is almost infuriating reading the court news and seeing the dumbasses who don't follow this basic principle. DO NOT ADMIT ANYTHING!!!!!!! MAKE THEM PROVE IT!!! Just about everyone busted for small amounts has obviously rolled over, spilled their guts and plead guilty thinking they will get an easier sentence. If the person confesses it's open and shut and the cops have to do literally zero work to get their conviction. They are not going to put effort into busting a small fry, so MAKE THEM WORK FOR IT!!!!!!!

Do not freak out and think that if you say "It was only a little bit of hash, I've only done it once, I'm sorry!", that they will go easy on you. They 100% guaranteed will fucking hang you out to dry as an example. That being said, if it's a small amount, they will not spend resources to try and bust you. Just look at the Border Patrol/Security shows, people are smuggling kilos of MDMA and Methamphetamine all the fucking time, you are a small fish.

IMHO all countries treat equal by customs, except may be China, India, Netherlands and Latin America's. Choose any other country preferably with most heavy post traffic between them and NZ, like UK, US, Australia. Good luck.
