    I'm starting to wonder if all the chatter on here and other places about methods for shipping, etc., has started to alert some folks who work for FedEx/UPS about how this is happening. Maybe thats just being paranoid, but I've stopped talking about shipping tricks and methods as I've seen a dramatic increase in boxes being stolen, opened, returned and/or denied.

    Might be time to Fight Club this whole thing.

    "On an average day, UPS handles 15.8 million packages. FedEx, by contrast, averages north of 3.4 million packages per day."

    I don't think they have the time of resources to figure out which pacakges have unauthorized alcohol in them.

    There are probably a few hubs near major wine and beer regions that are better at spotting alcohol shipments (Napa and Sonoma Valley, North San Diego County, Chicago, etc.).
