Quoting: Anonymous Coward 737344guess this is part of the new normal. wtf indeed. this is going to be mildly inconvenient when we have to ship care packages to the us on a regular schedule - should be about mid-2012, if current tendencies are any indication. |

We can't even receive a book. People something is seriously wrong here. It isn't terrorism. These are acts of dictators and paranoid freaks who are the real terrorists. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 909667 Australia11/30/2010 06:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A friend of mine went on a buying frenzy buying up stuff while the conversion rate is good. Unfortunately she has to return one or two items. I guess that's now off the cards then and she's stuck with faulty goods from the U.S? Sounds like a scam to me. |

| Project_Deimos User ID: 747845 United States11/30/2010 06:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There was a smimilar thread over the weekend and this is what I found: It seems you can STILL ship packages from Japan over 453 grams but it requires personally bringing them to the P.O. and having some type of shipping account (so if you routinely order from companies they would most likely have this anyways) see link below: [link to www.japanprobe.com] I totally disagree with the new restrictions, however it doesn't appear impossible to ship over 453 grams. Just more BS hoops to jump through. How many Billions do we spend on DHS, CIA, NSA, FBI, BATF each year??? And this is the best they can come up with?? "There are known knowns. There are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns. That is to say, we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, the ones we don't know we don't know." |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1179200 Australia11/30/2010 07:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I totally disagree with the new restrictions, however it doesn't appear impossible to ship over 453 grams. Quoting: Project_DeimosIt's not impossible to "ship" anything. It's air mail over 453 grams that is blocked. You can use surface mail, and mail whatever size thing you want. It can go in ships, trains, and trucks. Only airmail is affected. |

This pattern is so easy to figure out. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 737344yup So they restrict due to the last attempt. Too little too late is the motto here. Because the terrorists will move to new methods anyways. So these restrictions aren't stopping terrorism, they are creating domestic terrorism. |
