Title: Shipping to Alaska?
Post by: AncientX on July 06, 2012, 09:36 am
So, here in a few weeks. I'm gonna be headed off to alaska for several months of intense work at a fishery.

18 hours a day, no days off, lots and lots of overtime. ( Not even kidding, i'll be lucky to get 2 days off the entire time im up there )

Anyway, Im hoping to have some chronic mailed up to me, because i refuse to pay the local prices ( 500 - 600$ an ounce )

Does anyone know of a good vendor who has had success shipping product up to alaska?

I know it can be done, im just hoping someone can point me to a good vendor, with relatively cheap prices and some decent smoke!

PM a vendor directly, that'd be your best chance.

A buddy of mine at University shipped off one summer for a work at a fish processing plant in Alaska.

Good luck mate. The job damn near killed him

Shipping to alaska is no different that the lower 48. Where did you hear prices are that high? You can get prime stuff for $300 and ounce in the matanuska valley.

Isn't alaska the country where the constitution gives one the right to grow 25 cannabis plants?

AncientX i recommend anaorcho47. hes been here forever, and ships very very very stealthily. he only deals with 1/2oz and up. very very very nice smoke and very nice prices. yes he does take a while to get to you but it will get there.

Thanks for the referance, I think im gonna go with AllLove. He/She Seems to offer hardcasing at request when shipping ( Since ive never had anything shipped to AK before,  i want every great stealth packaging tech possible without having to pay out the ass )

They aren't, but you also aren't flying straight to whatever place you are working. You will fly into anchorage and can pick up $300 ounces there. Even if you don't want to buy locally the shipping is no different here than in the states. No need for extra security. Enjoy the wonderful smells of fish.

Meh, i dont know anyone in anchorage to pick up from. And on the island i was on, everyone i ran into was selling ounces for 300 - 500$ depending on quality. ( Some even asked for upwards of 800, but that was for ounce and a half of some super chronic )

But aside from that even if i wanted to pick up in anchorage, how am i suppose to bring it back to my island? i cant very well use the plane..
I mean the superferry is an option, but after all is said and done i will have spent 400$ - 500$ on the trip alone, for ferry tickets + the weed.

But i do like having that sense of " Fuck yea...my package is stealth as fuck right now, noone will find that shit..."

I think once im all settled in up north, and i have a good 600 - 700$ i will start buying around, getting a feel for the buyer your mentioned, and the few i spoke to on my own.

^-^ I like having variety with my weed, and so do the people i intend to sell it to.

Lived on an island in AK for a long time. bud is incredibly expensive there. Trust me, I know. so yes, your best bet is to use SR.

Edit: Just got to thinking. If I knew about SR when I lived up there I would have made a fortune of resell. Oh lord do they love their drugs up there and stuff is very hard to find, even weed sometimes.

if you dont mind me asking, what island?

Just PM'd it to you. Yeah I'm a little paranoid as of late lol so my bad. I worked in a processor and commerical fishing as well. Great money but yeah its a bitch. All my friends up there are commerical fisherman or work on a processor. And they are fiends for drugs up there, 1/8 of bud sells for $100 easy. PK prices are insane, and if you can get a hold of any "rare" drug such as psychedelics you can pretty much name your price.

Yeah if you have SR up there you will be making a killing. Especially on an island. Good luck, have fun, and be safe.

why not buy a few oz and sell them yourself. make a bit of coin yourself just a thought.

Well since im not  back home in the main state i usually reside in, i cant really conduct shipping business while maintaining a constant 18hour work way 7 days a week. But i do have some intentions of profiting while up here, i actually have a few buyers set up

I can vouch for Alllove, they're an awesome vendor. You should be fine shipping to Alaska its just like any other domestic shipment.

yea i live in the city and i receive just fine. a lot of the workers where you will be are usually from out of state so there is always constant mail going which is good. Price are quite high but if u can make it up to the city then prices are much better.. gl man, i have many friends who are doing what u do and its WELL WORTH IT!

Also a lot easier to profile as the volume is lower.

Remember all those billions of dollars in high tech equipment that was distributed to local police and other government sectors right after 911? Remember all those crazy terrorist scenarios the media dreamed up?

Lots of small and remote police departments got millions of dollars of equipment distributed to them. I wouldn't put it our of the realm of possibility for the USPS to have an x-ray scanner deployed in Alaska. Would get put to good use given the volume of mail. Could scan a good percentage of it.

Any Alaskans here that could chime in on success rates? Particular international orders that go through customs in Anchorage?
