Living somewhere the domestic route does not exist, which makes most of the advice on this board inapplicable to me.

What would genuinely help is knowing which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition.

Not looking for reassurance. Looking for the part I have got wrong.

International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas:

Package cleared customs in 2 days, no issues.

Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from a UK pharmacy. Customs can be hit or miss.

Shipping time: 7-14 days
Customs clearance: smooth, no issues
Quality: Janoshik tested at 97.0% purity

International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. The mechanism and the magnitude are separate questions. Agreeing that something happens says nothing about whether it happens enough to act on.
