<< <i>Stand in any line at the post office, many people don't even know how to address an envelope! >>
I *never* use the post office by my house that is less than a mile away because of this. It's a very busy place and for some reason no one there realizes you're supposed to pack items before arriving and you can count on roughly 1 in 3 or 4 people in line in front of you having a loose item to ship in their hand. I don't know why, but that location then proceeds to help these young morons pack their boxes right there at the counter. I therefore primarily use the post office near work even though they are under-staffed. At that location they'll simply bark at people who walk in with a loose items expecting them to be packed. I realize not everyone is a shipping pro, but even when I mailed stuff as a teenager I knew to pack the box securely before leaving the house. Sheesshhhh...
<< <i>That is is rather strange, if a dog hits on it then the police gets involved not the postal inspectors? They probably know that you boxed contained the Good stuff lol >>
I'll ask the Deputy in our Sheriff's Office who has our bomb dog whether there is any reason for a bomb dog to hit on the tape.

Yep, that drives me crazy. The line is 20 minutes long and these idiots are tying up 1 of the 2 or 3 clerks for 10 minutes. I always comment to the person in front or behind me. "Get used to it, it will be exactly the same when the g'ment takes ove healthcare." I usually get a chuckle but ocasionally some communist will give me the stink eye.

<< <i>What percentage of the population even knows about tape requirements for registered packages? >>
My first time mailing a registered package, a postal clerk explained why I needed to use paper tape and he then helped me retape my package and then rubber stamped every seam while I watched.

<< <i>What a hoot. I used to be a Postal Inspector. Just think, these guys are driving around with a package and they are going to ask the addressee if it is dangerous or harmful. And then they open it !!!! Go figure. >>
and I'm trying to figure out what they might confuse it with???
do they have an explosives sniffer and does UtahCoin reload your own??? (trace gunpowder??)
It's a mystery why this box was flagged. >>
...just a random check.

Gotta love those pinko commys! Haha im sure they bark back "well if Bush wouldn't have gotten us in this mess." Right?
The recipient shoulda said..."whenever I get a package from Utah....it's such a pleasant addition to my 'collection' that I enjoy thinking about opening it for awhile."
then proceed to start drinking and pull out some gun cleaning supplies. Pop an adult beverage and keep the inspectors occupied for a while. ....open the package and viola...."TAPE" ---'OH, that's for my other 'collection'.
The postal folks were looking for weapons ......99%.

I have MUCH longer waits, on a per person basis, when I am using the UPS facility. I almost never get out of there in less than 20-30 minutes, even when there is only 2-3 folks in front of me. At my local USPS branches, I almost NEVER wait for over 20-30 minutes, even when there are 20 people in front of me. Sure, there are some that take the clerk's time excessively, but overall, I like my local USPS branches.
The "pursuant to 39 CFR 233.11" on the label points to Mail reasonably suspected of being dangerous to persons or property. Postal Inspector determines that there is a credible threat that certain mail may contain a bomb, explosives, or other material that would endanger life or property, including firearms which are not mailable under Section C024 of the Domestic Mail Manual, the Chief Postal Inspector may, without a search warrant or the sender’s or addressee’s consent, authorize the screening of such mail by any means capable of identifying explosives, nonmailable firearms, or other dangerous contents in the mails. The screening must be within the limits of this section and without opening mail that is sealed against inspection or revealing the contents of correspondence within mail that is sealed against inspection. The screening is conducted according to these requirements.

Again, the package came from UTAH coins - yes, but in Ft Worth, Texas.
Here's the package - received this afternoon.
Opps... I forgot there was a catalog on the table when I imaged the box.

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
Gotta be the glue. Maybe they think you're shipping horse parts.
