well when i was a businesspost subbie with 80 drops a day and 200 boxes that would be a tad impossible

if i send a sealed package i expect it arrive sealed

"ok mate, whats in the package?"

"£200,000 of cocaine mate"

like anyones gonna tell you?...


When we had the factory everything was sealed but we still had a description of the goods inside on a label on the outside. It was common practice as far as I was aware. Once you've asked whats in a package and got them to sign for it that's you're responsibility over except for delivery of it.



exactly, although i doubt anyone will put "Crack Cocaine" on a package

and if you ask and get told "its only a passport"..

!. It could be a forged passport
2. It may be drugs anyway

plus theres no proof you asked or got a reply

My point is if you have a signed document saying 'X' is in the package then it would not be unreasonable to use it as defence if it turns out to have drugs in it :roll:
