The package is 5 days late and the tracking stopped updating on the first day. It's a $20 order, so should I prepare for a controlled delivery or even accept other orders that are on the way to me? How funny that the cheapest item I buy gets me fucked over and sent to prison.

I think you are being just a little bit paranoid. Tracking stops all the time.
I have had numerous shipments where 4 days after it shipped there was still no tracking then all of a sudden it's showing about to be delivered.
Chances are 99% that the package is simply mislaid and will eventually arrive. Sometimes the package will arrive and the tracking won't show delivered until half a day or a day later.
LE isn't going to be bothered doing a controlled delivery for a $20 item.

anon911, meet paranoia. Paranoia, anon911.

If it makes you feel any better, a few weeks ago I shipped two parcels to two addresses in the same city, both shipped at the same time and both the same size, postage, etc. One arrived in three days. the other ended up in a completely different part of the country, and sat there for almost a week. both my buyer and I were trying not to shit bricks. then, suddenly it shows up as in transit and was delivered the next day. Buyer was prepared, and took all precautions when picking up, but in the end all was fine, the PO just screwed up.
Take a deep breath, I am sure it is nothing.

Lol try this gem for size. Just before I arrived on The Road I was in Amsterdam meeting up suppliers and basically one of the people I trusted made a complete fuck yup of the whole shipment. Needless to say I lost a kilo of M1. Not heard anything from HMRC etc

Honestly now, over the years how many times have you shat yourself?

What... out of paranoia? Or just in general?

You are all breaking the law and committing felonies every time you order something on here. I hope you are all just having a circlejerk and not actually thinking being paranoid when doing such illegal activities is a bad thing? We'd like to think people would post a thread when they get busted, but it seems you forget that they get taken to jail and don't have internet access. If this is your attitude about the American legal system then I doubt you're going to last much longer.
-
Look at the bigger picture dude, do you seriously think they would do a controlled delivery on someone ordering $20 worth of drugs? Think more logically, trust me, it will make your life a hella of a lot easier.
-
Im not sure who you ordered from, but that plays a big part in my paranoia level. I only order from established vendors who have been here awhile and have numerous 5/5 feedback and a good rep on the forums. If the vendor is new I wait it out for reviews to come in before placing any orders.
Paranoia is good and will keep you out of jail, but even better than that is common sense. If you are really that worried clean up shop and be prepared if the police do show up.
I hope everything works out good for you with your order.

There was a white van with flashing lights right next to my mailbox (it's down the street) just sitting there parked. I looked out of the corner of my eye and they were staring me down the whole time I walked there and checked my mail. Still nothing. Paranoia sucks, but I live in a cul-de-sac and there wasn't any construction going on so I don't know why they would be there minutes before the mailman dropped off the mail.
-
They are gone now and did nothing but sit there parked. Kill me now..
-
Dude relax for a minute and breathe. IF you think someone is watching your mailbox, have a friend check your mail (if item is there) write Return to Sender in huge letters on the envelope and let it sit inside for a week before opening it. IF you have been dealing IRL then I would remove contraband from your premises and leave them all at a distant friends house, or bury them in the woods nearby, and lay low.

That sounds shitty man. Who did you order from?

I don't want to say because it might mess up our negotiation for a refund.

I understand. Just concerned now for others safety if this seller was somehow compromised. Can you say if hes a new seller at least, or has here been here for awhile? Thanks.

He's been a member for 2 months and has new feedback everyday from successful orders. He says he hasn't ever had a package not make it until me.

It could be any of numerous things.
Package could have been stolen/lost/seized,
Yet perhaps postal service working abnormally slow for the last few days, you cant really know.
Even if its a 20$ order i would advise strongly to clean your house, Again its a long shot, chances are LE is not involved, but better safe then sorry mate.
-
I keep my stash in a lock box. Do you think I should take it to a friends house or bury it in my backyard or what?
Friend's house all the way, they'll never get a warrant for a friends house, and frankly they shouldn't even get one to search yours.
Just don't freak out man, remember that if you purchased your coins anonymously and did not fuck up on your end, they cant prove shit.
Like you i always believe you should be worry when something seems odd, its our life we are playing with here, that's something we should never take lightly.
-
Do you think I should...?
If you really think an LE sting is a possibility at this point, you'll definitely want to get any drugs off your property.
They leave no stone unturned.
-
They read these forums too dude, and they come with metal detectors. Dont put that shit anywhere on your own property.
-
That's true. ExtraSheets can you delete your post quoting me please.
-
So I assume OP is rotting away in a cell somewhere, right?
I mean surely it couldn't have just been extreme paranoia.
-
well as the main agent in charge of the raid, i used an apc to knock down his front structural wall and then sent in the sweeper teams. dont tell my supervisor though
-
If they did do a CD, he prolly would have had his ass hauled away just from how sketched out he was probably behaving.

Hope you had enough room in the APC to fit that half gram in that you found. Glad the streets are safe again.
I have had so many paranoid fucks as friends in my life that I feel it makes me not paranoid enough trying to NOT be them. But I tell everyone this, if you think LE are staking out your house or are worried about that van sitting down the street, go check it out. Instead of being a paranoid vagina and looking out the blinds every 5 minutes, walk down there, ask them what they're up to, you're completely within your rights and hopefully saved yourself from a hemorrhoid when you were shitting in your pants for 9 hours.

...if you think LE are staking out your house or are worried about that van sitting down the street, go check it out....walk down there, ask them what they're up to...
And hope that if the occupants aren't "in the mood for conversation" they only flash a badge and ask for ID, rather than flash a gun and invite you inside?
-
Looks like OP is posting all over the place as recently as today, so it sounds like he's alright. Stay safe man!
-
Yeah I forgot about this thread. The original shipment got sent out of the country somehow and ended up at my house a few days after I confirmed it's location in Puerto Rico instead of the northeast. I guess it really was just lost.
