I need to send some DE blades out to someone but in the past have had some resistance with post office staff when they ask what I'm sending and I answer honestly.
Now with ebay enforcement of this age verification it is likely to be harder.
If you get the question wrong with the counter staff you can't really say erase your memory and we'll start again with a different option! Might involve a trip to a different post office or coming back when another member of staff is in.
I'm wondering if I should tell the post office staff that it's shaving supplies and if they push me further I'll say shaving soap samples or something, to avoid any obstructions.
On small amounts of blades posted recently I've just put a stamp or two on the packet and popped it in the nearest postbox. Haven't had any issues so far. This even worked with one larger order.
What do we think?
Would like to avoid a descent into long discussions how ridiculous the new restrictions are. I know they are and you know they are. So as we are stuck with them what advice would you give for me posting lots of blades?
