I use the Ergo 2, NovoPen 4, the coloured pens aka pastels as well as the Gensupen’s which is an automatic

So Brisbane is currently a hotspot for Customs, looking at posting to an interstate address and reposting once in Australia , any idea which port might be better? Sydney, Tasmania, Adelaide etc?

I’ve heard Brisbane has just upgraded their customs but in saying that the tech is the same stuff that has been around in the other customs so I don’t think it’s any better elsewhere. Had one taken last week from Sydney but I’ve also had 2 clear from there

Was there any difference in the orders like size or contents etc or you reckon it's just pure randomness?

Just random, had 2 kits seized but also had 9 clear

Just adding to this. Got the V2 pen from AliExpress as well as the sterile cartridges (there are some sellers that have been tested for sterility, can find it in the forum discussing AliExpress pens).

I'm unable to discuss source yet but my delivery appeared to go to Victoria first as part of a Bulk shipment and then to me in semi regional Qld. North of BNE.

Without going into specifics, what's some general things you all do to stay 'discreet' when ordering kits?

I've used local resellers for my research lab rat but wanting to start looking at kits mostly because of price.

Any general tips?

(other than do your research and don't get scammed)

Waiting for the post man/women is nerve wrecking enough let alone reading the little warning mentions here & there at the moment .....

 

[JourneyToPerfection]

Aussie here

I’ve had two small packages come through so far (Brisbane area) but just ordered a massive bulk shop last night

I have reassurance that the vendor either refunds or re-sends if it’s seized (if it’s seized twice in a row then I’m out of luck)

A basic one is crypto, buying from an exchange then moving it to a wallet before sending to a vendor.

Being discreet is hard unless you have a name and address that isn’t entirely linked to you. Ordering to your house has its risks but unless you’re ordering stupid amounts it would just get seized and no action would happen.

that's good news!

I am waiting on bulk & have faith

Then I see mentions on here & I'm like don't do me like that , its going to be alright (heart pumping in my chest)

I have and haven’t had issues but I also know a few people who have had issues. Be mindful that if you use a fake name it’s impossible to retrieve it if you don’t collect it in time OR if it’s not address to the parcel locker name as you will need to go in and they will ask for ID

Oh yeah using a fake name would me more trouble/risk than it's worth. Just considering it in case packages get seized and we wanna try an alternative "address".

 

[WholesomeApril]

Ok so I made two orders from different vendors.

I ordered on the 15th of April from one and the 23rd from the other

The race is on!

Ok update. The order I did on the 23 arrived today and is in my posession.

The one from the 15th has just landed…

I knew the second one would arrive faster. They are usually super efficient

Emmy erp seems to have some delays
