Okay, that's much clearer but all the more dizzying.
What if, just talking out loud here, Pcom screwed up and two different employees sent out a reship. One used BB's address and the other used yours, both sent and seized at the same time?
Proofreading that, it even sounds far fetched to me. This is definitely strange and makes me wonder a little more about the inner workings of customs.
I still do not think there is any detailed records.
My reasons are two point:
1) I personally have had a few seized packs (from three different very established reputable sources) but overall I have successfully received at least 30 packs in the past 5 or so years (All successful are from the same 3 sources, mostly Basic). If there were a database, why/how would I still be receiving packs?
2) People that move often or rent for short times etc have successfully received packs. If that address is forever flagged, how would someone know what a previous resident received? by this I mean, over the course of time many addresses have many different kinds of people and many orders arriving -- if flagged from a seizure eventually no address would be free from being on the list. Do we really think because a previous resident did something, all future residents will never receive packs? I find it unlikely.
But, I do understand things always change and new technology may be implemented at any time.
I have seen more seizures near the end of last year (the source must have also because they moved locations) so something changed.
Overall, the most packs are a success or we would see literally thousands of complaints.
I worry though, with the opioid crisis, things will get more difficult.
This will greatly effect domestic sources as well since they are importing large batches of raws which is something more serious (sucks for any of us to lose a little money, but think about a domestic source's risk if he gets tracked for a raws order and busted -- these are guys just like us, into lifting and NOT deserving of decades in prison but that is what they may face ).
Times are a changing in the USA and by the looks of it the path is one of less and less freedom and more government control each year
