From what I understand, they don’t use stealth. They say they use Mylar type bags that avoid X-ray machines at customs.

They ship their stuff in a bubble mailer and their premades are in a ziplock bag. They don’t do any stealth shipping

They don't need stealth, their success rate is 100% to every country.

We do not use stealth, as we do not need it, thanks to our pass rate and our experience in shipping, we have very safe lines.

Stealth can be available in near future for some special inquiries such as express shipping that are a bit risky (with 95% pass rate) for large orders of many kgs.

Other shipping lines such as Post NL and China Post that have 100% pass rate, it's just a waste of time.

Customs will open only suspecious parcels and it's never the case for ours.



For USA it's a 100% pass rate via China Post and we also have another line where parcels do not need to pass custom as we can ship domestically all goods available.

We ship first to our usa warehouse, we bear the customs risk, then we ship domestically to your adress. This is the way we deliver most of our big customers (US domestic labs and resellers).

This option will be available too in Europe very soon, for our EU warehouse in Germany, I will announce it once it's ready in about 2 months .

I posted on their main thread. I don’t know how it arrived in the US but I know my reshipped package was ripped in half and had zero stealth outside the powders being in those no-see polymer vacuum bags. It’s not like they can control the post office shredding a package but it’d have been cool to see something inside to hide the vials in plain sight through the ripped package. Envelope bag, bubble wrap, whatever. Something more than vials in a clear ziploc bag.

But that’s a sample size of one so take it for what it’s worth and all that

If customs officer see nothing on the X-ray screen that's isn't suspecious?
