u.s. post office is the only way to go and please folks, don't be cheap about it either and give them their due. put your letter inside of their overnight or priority packaging, pay the freight and then rest assurred that the post office will do the job right. do not try to pull off some bs with a few stamps. that will get you popped, as it should. put the responsibility into their hands and pay for it.

my baby sister has been in ups management for 29 years now and you do not want to trust your stash to these folks. any rights you may think you have to privacy cease once the package is handed over to ups. fedex operates in a similar fashion imo. sis has told some absolute horror stories on how ups works. if the cops see you deliver a package to ups, they will wait until you leave and then request ups employees to open it. the cops never touch it until some contraband is discovered. already court tested. no violation of search and seizure statutes. peace-biteme

"Elderly MI Woman Gets Marijuana in the Mail
Eric Stiehr James Gilbert Created: 7/21/2010 3:10:57 PM Updated: 7/21/2010 5:06:19 PM

Blackman Township, MI (AP) - The check is in the mail -- and so is the pot. Police report an elderly woman in Jackson County, Michigan received a two-pound package of marijuana in the mail.

The weed was sent from Arizona and police say the return address is bogus. Investigators believe the package was sent to the woman's home by mistake, or someone planned to snatch it from her mailbox.

A local paper reports the senior citizen called police about the mystery marijuana after realizing what she had received."
 
I don't ship, but, as I see it, at the post office you don't have to show id. I've noticed through my job that when I ship these days at fedex they set up an account and ask for ID. At the post office you can ship from a fake name to a fake or even mispelled name. The package arrives, you write "return to sender on it", and have patience and let it sit on a counter for 4 days. If the man shows up all you have to say is "I have no idea what it is, was going to drop it off for return shipping at the post office later this week."

Once you open it you claim it, but if you leave it unopened and paint the picture that you haven't had time to take it to the post office they can't touch you.

They can and they will arrest you for possession. You may have helped establish an alibi but that's not going to deter your arrest and probable prosecution.

I have no idea about the specifics of Cheye Calvo's case but it makes no nevermind. When you take it into your house, you legally possess it regardless of whether or not you have opened it, marked it to be returned, or swear you were going to send it back to Mars.

If you feel otherwise, then proceed accordingly. Jails are full of the legally misguided.
