apart for overseas ones baring a declaration I've never received a package that says gun/rifle/gun parts on it

How well do you trust the people sending you stuff? Not just gun parts.

I sold an old Swazi jacket to a guy a year or two ago on Trademe. Posted it to his home address. Google showed the address was a residential house with a trampoline in the back yard.

A look through his feedback showed him buying and selling rifles and all kinds of related items, including lots of AR15 parts. I recognized his Trademe name as very similar to his user name on a firearms forum (not this one) and saw he was a B and E licence holder and looking to get his C as well.

In a few minutes, I had his name and address and even photos of some of his E cat guns. He was selling a motorbike on Trademe which gave me his mobile number as well. In the background of the motorbike photos was the trampoline, confirming where he lived.

Remember Operation Eight when the cops gave shitloads of people's full Trademe details to criminals and their lawyers?
