New to this board.  It looks great.

Haven't been to the boards since I stopped lifting about a year ago.  Since I started, I started scanning the boards, emailing my old sources to see if they are still in business - not suprisingly, their business is often a short-lived enterprise, and generally getting reaquainted with the whole working-out life style.  Anyway, as Elite Fitness is now a pay-site, I had to go looking for an alternative.  Looks like I found one.  This is probably the sharpest-looking site I've seen.  It's a little slow, though.  

Anyhoo, I have a question.  Before, most of my sources were offshore.  Has 9-11 affected deliveries, especially ones from countries like China?  And what about prices?  Have they gone up since last year, or are they stable?  What's the scoop?  Is everyone going 'domestic', or are they still going offshore for their gear.
 
Sup bro..welcome to MC..Im relatively a newbie but from what Ive read and learned its a toss up between domestic and over the pond. I prefer staying in the home land going usps..but others might like taking that risk of getting it shipped from there.  I personally am too damn impatient so I will continue to stick to inland stuff. Ltr,

Well bro.. welcome back into the game AND TO mc.com.

Overseas:  Cheaper but seizure rates are increasingly growing at an alarming rate.  You want to chance it by all means, take the price cut but take a GREATER RISK.

Domestic:  Prices seem to be average I suppose, sometimes you get sources who are better then others, but what it boils down too... is you take no customs risk.  Add a buck or 10 to your order and next thing ya know... it's in your hands.  Without a customs letter.

I suppose it up to your preference, but in regards to this kinda "game" it's not about how big your balls are (or aren't lol)... it's about who's smarter and thinking ahead.

just my .02.  Prices range all over.  Bulk pricing is better, sometimes.  But there might be a wait.  For instance you want 100 what'evesrs....  the domestic might say, cool.. here's your price.. (but then he/she has gotta get it from out of country.. taking risk), so it takes time... but fi they get it, you get it.

Seems there are alot of different strategies in regards to business these days too.. some keep stock (which is dangerious as hell), and some get your cash then order from thier guy.. for example... so who knows anymore.

It's still a good risk.  But every once and while a cool bro comes along who knows how to run the fuck'n show..   ... it's just knowing who is good and who's a fuckin' scammer.  That's all!
