Yea me too. When ordered I just thought the warning was just for show and they wouldn't require it. But they did ask for it.
But i figured they had my address my credit card so it shouldn't make a difference. But if the dea comes a knocking to check in on my capsule maker I'll let you guys know. I bet it's more of a deterrence, and what ever govt agency that requires it, I dunno if dea or fda or whoever, probably just wants to keep tabs on every "pill making device" out there.
I compare it to showing my license for my ephedrine at the pharmacy.
