Default Sent hash priority mail...

Ok, so I did some research, and I couldn't really find anything useful, so that brings me here...On Friday, I sent 1/2 gram of hash to a friend through USPS overnight priority, it is now Monday, and it has not arrived.

I figured hash is pretty undetectable, it doesn't smell enough for a human to detect it, and is as small as a pebble.

What are the chances it has been detected, and what can they do to us?

I was stupid and put my actual return address on the package, but only because I really thought it wouldn't be detected.

Sometimes when you send overnight over a weekend it takes two nights, especially if you sent it after mail pickup on Friday afternoon. If it was detected, you're gonna get a knock on the door sometime this week. If not, then praise the lord!

I sent it just in time for the pick up, I watched the guy come and pick it up....Ok, but if I get a knock at the door, is it considered a felony? this would be at federal level, I am sure...

Whoa! Hold the paranoia!

This is not likely anything but the typical misdirected package - and certainly not worth the effort to find you so as to charge you with a felony.

Lighten up.

I've had priority mail take over a week to reach me. I personally wouldn't worry too much about it.Of the millions of pieces of mail the USPS deals with daily, do you really think they singled out your one envelope out of all of them?

Yep, what Troublemaker says is too true. I have a small internet biz and ship via USPS priority quite frequently. The longest a priority package has ever taken is 12 days - but that was because the customer gave me a wrong zip code.

I suspect it's just plain 'ol USPS slow pacing. Did you include a delivery confirmation with your package? If so, you can also track its progress online. One thing I learned early on is always send your package with some sort of tracking service.

I have a lot of faith in the USPS, despite their often snail's pace. I have even used it to send cash overseas - without any problems.

Hope it turns out all good.

Priority is a bitch. It's cheap and easy and MOST of the time it arrives in a good pace, but some random weeks they can take a week or a little more to come.
It still shows though. I'd still wait at least a week before you should worry.

I've never had to wait more than 4 days for Priority mail - and I live in Alaska!! 1 week and I would go nuts!

Toothfairy420, most likely you will be just fine and the package is being delayed.

However, because you over nighted it right before 4/20 and you didn't say you used any preventative packaging there is always reason to have concern. I think you'll be okay, keep us posted.
