How was N shipped back then, a few years ago? Question for old timers

[Esokabat]

A few years ago, N still shipped in the mail. Does anyone know how it was shipped? Did it ship internationally or only nationally? Was it disguised in some way? What was indicated in the custom form? Anyone know how those shipments arrived a few years ago?
I am going to Latin America soon and I was wondering if it was shipped a few years ago, with so many people ordering it online, why it cannot be shipped now?
Anyone know how it was shipped back then, a few years ago? How was it packaged? How was it labeled? Etc

It was shipped using an international courier. It would be relabelled / boxed as something else and customs shipped as whatever it had been relabelled as (I'm not going to be too specific, but think beauty type products).

Thank you, this is very useful.
I guess removing the label is easy enough but how would one go about obtaining a convincing different label? I guess they must have been quite skilled.

That is really interesting. I also thought about going to colombia, get the stuff, label it as something different and taking it into the plain.A lot of people do actually. It doesnt look like a drug, but still it can be risky and who wants to get arrested? The other way as you mentioned would be to send it yourself, but I also wouldnt know how you could do that professionally like they did years ago.

Yes, my question is more related to shipping it internationally. Like going there, and then ship it to myself from there. But I don't know if I can re-label it in any convincing way.
