You could also use drop box services like Parcel Motel and maintain a degree of anonymity through it. Depending on how well you set it up, the only real chance of being caught is if the package was found in transit and the authorities decided to essentially set up a sting on the drop box and wait for you to collect it.
However, for recreational consumer use, you're talking quantities that absolutely could not justify such an operation. The value in such an operation through a traditional drug dealing network would be that the person caught could serve up information on who they got it from. When you're talking about buying drugs anonymously online, none of that information will be available.
In Germany, DHL is offering what in the US is known as Amazon Lockers. And they got hacked and used for drug trading.
After the money/bitcoin transfer you simply got the access code and could get your drugs like from a vending machine. Though they somehow got busted.
I would imagine they're also all in places with 24/7 video surveillance. The Amazon lockers here are in 7-11 convenience store, each of which has more video cameras than a fleet of drones.
No not necessarily. I use PM a lot here in Ireland, mainly for things that only have UK shipping available, or free shipping to the UK but not elsewhere, etc.
PM is €3-€4 for a standard package, so what I'll regularly encounter is things on Amazon that are free delivery to the UK but quite a bit more expensive than PM to be delivered to Ireland.
Things also seem to ship through PM drastically faster than through the normal postal service.
