RESELLERS: what postal service do u use? ( self )

submitted by idgoddess Warning: 0%

i’m a reseller and i usually have around 3-4 orders every month. all the IDs ship to my house and then i mail them out individually in yellow bubble wrapped envelopes. i just do not want my name being tagged for mailing so many packages so often. do any of u have any tips?? also any preferences for USPS vs UPS vs FEDEX and why? any advice or tips would be appreciated.

USPS requires a federal judge signing a warrant based on real probable cause, or a drug dog hitting on a package in order to open a package. DHL/FedEx/UPS all have it written in their terms that they have the right to open any package at any time for any reason. This has resulted in many shippers of drugs being arrested. Use USPS flat rate envelopes. You want your package to be impossible to profile, so you want it to be the most common type of package possible. Use http://bitcoinpostage.info/ to create your labels. Use a VPN and/or TOR when making labels. Use proper opsec when handling your bitcoin. Drop packages in blue mailboxes and do not regularly use the same mailbox. Make a list of 20 or so mailbox locations and randomly pick one each time you drop. Wear gloves when packaging, and use blank envelopes on each side of the stack of envelopes to ship to drop inconspicuously without having to wear gloves out in public. Work gloves are fine, but never latex in public. Never drop at a post office. Never buy labels/postage at a post office. Switch the return address name every single time you ship. Switch the email address used with bitcoinpostage every time you ship. Follow these rules as a protocol and you won't have a problem, other than the obvious concern of customers giving you up. Interest in this by law enforcement is extraordinarily low. The people who care can't do anything, and the people who can do something don't care. Good luck.

damn, thanks dude! also i usually just mail them out individually which is why i’m using small padded yellow envelopes. usps flat rate envelopes seem too big and costly for just two IDs. do u think i’ll be fine with the envelopes i’ve been using?

They cost $8 to ship, this shouldn't be too costly and should just be included in what they pay you. Your envelopes are fine though, I'm just giving you a general idea of how to operate.

Just drop them in a blue mail box as instructed.

https://postagexpress.com/ is better for bitcoin labels

I agree that this is also a great option.

Use USPS

There are tons of OPSEC reasons to go with USPS that have already been well covered by the fam below, but I'll give you a practical reason as well for going with USPS: USPS never outsources delivery to a contractor outside USPS, so anything shipped with them is more likely to work with mail infrastructure like PO Boxes, dorm rooms, apartments etc.
Any Fedex false scanning/signing issues you've heard about won't happen with USPS. Additionally both UPS (via "mail innovations") and Fedex have contracts with USPS for last mile delivery and gross weight packages, so when you ship small mailer sized items with them, it often just ends up being handled by USPS, so you would be paying more for less OPSEC and the same last mile delivery network. So yeah USPS hands down is the best from not just an OPSEC P.O.V for what we do.
