hi guys,
iv been expecting 3 parcels this wk, 1 from SR and 2 from friends...
but so far i have recieved nowt which is strange as i usually wait 3 days max and it has been a wk now...!!!
is anyone else having the same problems...?
operation pangea v maybe...!!!!
i would appreciate hearing ur views on this guys...
regards...

I was expecting a package today and it never arrived. It was posted a week ago and would usually only take 4 days from where I ordered.
I'm hoping there is just a delay and that I will get it tomorrow. I didn't know about this Operation Pangea until after I ordered. What a load of shite that is!!
-
My fairly regular package from a reputable seller is delayed as well. It always takes 3 days max and it is over a week now and still nothing.
-
i lost something to pangea iv last year. i was greatful to see the pangea v warning in the shipping forum last week as i wanted to place an order. the guy who gave the initial warning got called every name at first, i would suspect those attacking him were not from countries with customs as determined as here.
i hope it doesn't put him off giving a similar warning next year. hope ur package makes it thru.
-
are these domestic packages? what country?
-
yeah 2 domestic UK, 1 of SR and 1 from a friend, the other is from a friend in holland, so i know for definate these were all posted...

I am beginning to get really worried too. I have a pretty big order missing from a domestic vendor I've used a lot in the past, I'm in the UK. It has been 4 working days now and every other time I've ordered from the vendor it came the next day. I don't think I'll use this site anymore if it doesn't arrive. If Royal Mail has caught on it's not worth risking money on the off chance I might receive something, it's better to buy on the streets. Fucking sucks, but it is what it is. Not only is it a pain in the ass to get bitcoins now but it seems even domestic orders are risky now.

Operation Pangea = A chance to selectively scam everyone, not just Finns and Aussies?
Controversial!

Hi, a shame to admit but I lost two letters from two different locations both seized by customs. Both letters were due to arrive in September . Instead I got two letters from the Irish customs. Shit happens, I can say.

Shit, that sucks balls. My package didn't arrive today either, so I am fearing that I will get a customs letter as well, especially with that Pangea bullshit thing going on. I'm in Ireland as well and it seems the customs are catching a lot of letters lately. Sincerely hope that I get my stuff tomorrow and not a customs letter. :/
-
how are so many letters being caught in ireland
unless the vendor is failing to vac pack with fairly shoddy packaging or a red flag country such as NL then they should be very difficult to detect

A few issues this end sending out packages, the majority have got through but a couple have taken a lot longer than anticipated.
All my sales are domestic in the UK, hopefully the couple which are delayed/missing turn up soon, fucking postal workers why do they want to do something like this :( lol

I too have been waiting for 3 weeks from 3 different vendors and nothing yet, i got my local order but not the others.
I am in Australia

I tell you guys something more upsetting then losing a letter to the customs. In the seizure document the handling officer stated it was 1g of stuff whereas the package contained 2g. It means that fucker STOLEN 1g !

Dirty bastard! I always thought customs officers were straight laced folk who hate drugs! I was obviously fairly naive in thinking that!!!!! :-\

I really dont want to down play Operation Pangea, It maybe as serious as everybody things.
but going off their stats from last year:
Some 45,500 packages inspected by regulators and customs authorities, of which almost 8,000 were seized;
This is over a 1 week period. And 81 counteries are involved?
does anyone want to guess how many packages are sent in 81 counteries in a 1 week period. then compare that to the 45,500 packages inspected? do you think thats a big dent?
