Just a question as I'm a newbie user of SR: How do I make sure to buy enough without buying too much and sending a red flag to police or feds or whoever? Is there a certain amount of Bitcoins to spend on SR or "things" to order from sellers, that will still keep me off the radar without getting in any trouble? I am in the UK and mainly buy domestic. I am sure that helps? And what about other EU purchases etc? Any knowledgable info on this subject would help. I just don't want to get myself into something I can't get out of. thanks!

Thanks both for the feedback. I want to make sure to have a good experience using SR and do things the right way. @Shannon: very true, thanks for the insight... I guess I am just new and nervous about it all! @TallTemptress: I must say, you just sounded a bit like Yoda.. but thanks for the feedback. :)

Hahaha!! Yes that is true! :) I really appreciate your feedback and insight. I want to become SR savvy and gain a good rep as a buyer... I think I just am nervous about the whole thing. It's silly because there is prob more danger in buying things on the street, but it is hard to wrap my head around this thing. I guess I will start very small and see what happens! Thanks again for your response. I like the SR family! I want in! :)

yeah as Shannon said unfortunately there is no real "safe" amount, my main tip is never order more than you can afford to not pick up if something seems fishy.
-
At least check up on on your local drug laws and the quantities that will result in a possession offense vs trafficable offense so you know what to expect worst-case-scenario.

I think below 5 grams may be ok, but if they catch you importing coke in the mail they will try to put you in jail for drug importation anyway. In Canada coke is a schedule 1 drug and can put you in jail for 7 years less a day.. and importing drug itself is another crime but i don't know the sentence for this.
-
Yikes! 7 years!? I am in London and mostly trying to stay within the UK order/delivery zone.. But blow is the one thing that is not easy to find in London so I thought I'd try giving the mail order thing a shot. I ordered 1 1/2 g so fingers crossed! (Fingers crossed that it comes and fingers crossed it doesn't get intercepted!)
-
In USA you can do 5 years of jail just for weed possession, here this is not criminal (unless you have 1 kilo)
-
thanks for this info. I will do some research on local laws and get some more info, and report back. (I prob should have done that before I ordered!) :-\

Haha! No worries! I think I scared myself! :) This is my first time sing this and am a bit overly-nervous. I guess once I receive my 1st order safely (and break the seal of using SR!) then I will feel calmer about it all. Thx

Oh yeah i remember my first order, but must vendors here take big precautions with their packages and in the unlikely event that your order is caught by the customs for 1 1/2 gram i think they will just confiscate it .. They are looking for more big orders than that (like 1/2 kilo) and they have not the money to investigate all 1 gram order ...

That's good. Yeah if all works out with using this, then I will stick to keeping it small and stay under the radar. No need to stick out like a sore thumb! And it is prob safer to order within Europe, or even narrow it down to the UK orders only? (I'm in London)

You can order from anywhere, i have received packages from a lot of countries (Germany, USA, Netherlands, UK) and all my orders arrived with no problem ;D

any schedule i drug will get you in deep doo doo if it's intercepted, if some magical amount (say 5 grams or less) resulted in seizure without investigation, traffickers would swarm packs by breaking up the brick into 200 five gram packs
This makes sense( there being no arbitrary cut off weight) but can you imagine the logistics of delivering to 200 different addresses and going and collecting it all. There wouldn't be much point in sending it all to same address, unless over 200 days!
I think a buyer should think in terms of what could be reasonably defended as personal use. Obviously the smaller the amount the easier this would be. Just like in real life really. Having three 1/2 gram wraps of coke could be defended as personal.10-20 grams not so much.
I so far have also stuck to within UK purchases as obviously getting stuff from abroad becomes a matter for customs and I assume is regarded as more serious? Don't know if I'm correct about this tho? Been trying to get up courage to try a EU order but the larger delivery window also concerns me. I like the fact that UK- UK orders arrive next day or day after. Less nail biting!

They don't seem to check regular letters very often, in USA for example the government is crazy about drug war and must packages arrives to destination i think, you have to be cautious with new sellers because their packages sometimes need to be improved but long time sellers are very good at making ultra stealthy packages. I was afraid to order from the Netherlands before but i have ordered some E pills from Chemical Brothers and i have to say he use the best package i have seen so far!
