Exactly. My last shipment was declared as yarn. My first one was labeled as sperm collection kits.

That was only the fake injector pens, that was knockoffs from the UK. The sema from the pic above routed through hong kong and was seized on a later date than the fake pens.

“$45,000”

That's what it would cost you to get it from Novo and Lilly, those are retail prices.

I’m sure they feel like heros, even though they probably let fentanyl and meth precursors pass through while they were celebrating.

Is this a sign of things to come?

I think if you're taking peptides or unapproved weight loss drugs you'll be fine. If you're taking something that a pharmaceutical company has a patent for and license to distribute, things could get difficult.

I hope you're right.

This is why I'm stocking up. God knows what the customs situation will be come early February. I've got two years worth of Tirz for the wife and I now, if we stay at 7.5mg each.

Yet note, NO mention of any criminal charges . . . Or really any type of consequence. . .

I’m surprised they didn’t frame it like “we recovered enough ozempic to kill half of all the babies in Cincinnati”

“Cincinnati Customs and Border Protection officers made 4,400 seizures in the last fiscal year. They're on pace to beat that number this year. As for the products seized, it all gets destroyed unless it's forfeiture by the FDA.”

In other news, Cincinnati CBP agents report showing lowest avg weight among all federal officers.

lol. Like 3 grand worth of tirz.

Will get tons of press and prob scare away 5,000 ppl who could save their own lives. All in pursuit of corporate profits.

"Agents said these imported drugs do not meet the Food and Drug Administration's standards for safety and effectiveness, and could pose a health risk."

Someone should tell them, THIS IS WHY WE TEST!

Not even a peep about losing Global Entry, like so many (who don’t even travel internationally more than once a decade) are worried about.
