Customs

A few months back I had various RC (all in one order, and all technically legal, I believe... although analogue laws may come into play) get caught up in customs. I didn't get a 'love letter' of any sort from them, but they never arrived and just showed as sitting in customs.

My question is, it is safe to order black/gray market goods to the same address again? or am I essentially red flagged now? If I am flagged, would it be my name + address, address, or me in general? I.e. when I move would I still need to worry, and would it be safe to put the order in the name of someone else in my apartment? Lastly, would domestic orders still be in the safe zone?

Thanks for taking the time to read and/or answer. Any opinions/knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

I'd try to order something small to that address and see if it lands, I had stuff go missing or not show and I still order to that same address, iv had a few 250 Mxe get caught up with customs for 1-2 weeks. To be safe the sorry if you are red flagged yes that address is flagged

I am assuming we are talking about the USA. I had a RC sent to me the was unscheduled and it was intercepted by Customs. It was not a large amount. I was concerned because I had 2 other orders coming from out of the country that were not RC. Both of the packages arrived after this package was seized but before Customs notified me. Right when I forgot about it I received a love letter from Customs stating the reasons it was being detained and gave me options. I took no action which is one of the options. the letter stated there was no fine etc because the RC was valued as $0.00. They would post it on the seized list notice for 40 days and then dispose of it.

I have been wondering if I am now flagged, it was strange the other two packages made it. I recently placed a very small order for an unscheduled item which I have order multiple times in the past to see if it gets seized. I have placed multiple USA to USA postal orders with no problem since receiving the Customs letter.
Edit: Also the package that was seized was shipped Express/Overnight through a Commercial Shipping Company the other two packages were shipped through post office with regular postage.
