Letter Envelopes Don't Make It Through Customs?

[Paregoric Kid]

I've read letter envelopes (flat packaging?) don't go through customs is this true?

even my flat pack codeine shipments were finally somehow detected by customs. each time though they claimed to have confiscated the pills, and that was never the case. the pills would come a few days after each letter. I also noticed weight, potency and spelling errors in both letters. the letters claimed that ordering codeine is illegal without a presription and that ordering from overseas, even legitimate prescriptions is risky behavior. there was a rattle snake around a pill container drawen on one page. a pharmacist can sell you codeine without a DR's script so I was pretty comfortable ordering the materials, it kept me in codeine for a few years. but now that is all over.

judging from my experience customs doesnt have the ability to check all the letters coming into the country, but even legitimate postal workers are required to report something strange or illegal.

the codeine shipped to me was always from a different address, from a different person working for the same company but never was the company name mentioned. somehow they new I had ordered codeine, but did they make an error on weights and quantitys because they never intercepted the packages? I suspect if they had intercepted the packages I would have never recieved the pills. perhaps canadian authoritys share information with the DEA and customs and my info was detected via credit card?

I think that flat packing is obviously not being ignored, but that much of it is low priority.
