thoughts on buying from an overseas seller

Post by krnkid1981 »

Long story short.  I am overseas and would like to thin out the herd.  What are most people's thoughts on buying NC boxes/partial boxes and maybe some CC 5ers from someone like me, where shipping will take 10-14 days.  Will saran wrap boxes then bubble wrap with or without humidification (either small boveda or humi pillows.)

Your thoughts are appreciated

What would be your plan if customs snatched up the package? Would you replace/refund? Or would the buyer have to take the risk

not sure customs would snag anything coming from an APO/DPO as I've never had issues when trading, but if it happened, I would probably eat the cost or try to replace.

Just sent some smokes home to my gf to stash away. No probs but it took a little over a week to get there. I gotta start emptying the coolers. Every PCS this is the part that gets pricey!
