I was thinking how does she know what I am getting in this package?
The package was not labeled with anything referring to e-cigarettes.
Do they check the contents of our packages or what?
Just seemed strange!!
You should have given her the cat and got her started on e-cigs. She'd have left a happy, fulfilled woman.

Only a postal inspector may open a package. Carriers are not allowed to open packages. My stuff comes by same postal carrier in afteroon. Regular mail in the morning. I also think it is what time it arrives in the Post Office here.
actions speak louder than words, do a iittle everyday to save our PV's

My ruyandirect arrived untouched in my mailbox and had 2 kits which they tucked in the additional atomisers, batteries, and juice that I had ordered. They had packed it in one of those bubble envelopes. My 20 bottles of lorrains oils had obviously been torn opened and examined.
I had ordered the lorrains insured and my new mail lady brought it to my door in the morning but told me she did not have the mail sorted yet so I would get that later.
She seemed friendly at the time but now you all have me paranoid. jk ; )

I offered to pay my USPS 'China' carrier $5 to sign it for me. - He just laughed and had me sign twice and print once, while I tried to wipe the 11:15AM sleep from my eyes.
At the time, I was paranoid that bi-weekly deliveries would bring suspicion. The USPS carrier is happy to have a job. I am happy to spread the joy of not smoking.
So. I now get up early on expected delivery days. I sure wish I knew which days those are....5to8days+ does not cut it.
Having someone that will sign for you is golden.

I have a freind that has been a Postmaster for a very large postal facility and I called him to ask him if there are any outstanding warnings or issues with China deliveries today. He said that he knew of known and if there was any he would surely have gotten what he called a "bulletin" about it.
So for what it is worth, I am not to concerned about it. I wish the original OP here had asked what the "good luck" comment was. Like I said earlier--the postal person was more then likey joking when they saw it was a package from China due to all the quality control issues that get reported in the news---Sun

Our Carrier knows exactly what's in those packages, he knows allllll about it! He's also a vaper! But to make a point, the two places I have bought from both require a signature. Which is fine, they want to know if I got it, and I want to know it's on the way. (tracked)
