Kits4less on SST responded to me:
“ At one of our drop offs, there was a chunk of packages that were held and inspected, and eventually seized. Ironically, one of the customers in question who got their order held mentioned getting another package held/seized from a domestic source. This leads us to believe that his name/address potentially "flagged" every package dropped off with that return address.
Its our understanding that USPS significantly ramps up detection efforts during the current holiday season, due to the excessively high package volume they see every year. With this, they are likely forced to take more of a "shotgun" style approach to package detection. (This could be one of the real underlying reasons you see a lot of sources take a holiday break, besides just for family time)
This is obviously alarming, as domestic seizures are very uncommon. That said, this seems to be an isolated incident, and we multiple precautions have been implemented. We've had no further issues, but it goes without saying that if you're particularly concerned/paranoid then you should hold off on ordering.

“That’s a terrible idea for any source to be on the clearnet like that.”
SST is the clearnet. The "darknet" requires TOR to access. I understand us having a Facebook account is concerning at face value, but nobody on our team has ever accessed the account. It's an account ran on our behalf by a company in the middle east that we pay in XMR.”
