I've got a question for US citizens. What are the rules at airport customs if i am taking multiple identical products? i want to pack my 400 NES cartrides in 2 bags and take them from one state to another. the collection has few duplicates. is there a law against that?

 

[smurfx]

maybe you should ship them ahead of time? although i don't see why it would be illegal at all. don't think looking for stolen nes cartridges is their highest priority.

 

[Phobophile]

You're staying within the US? No restrictions for interstate travel.

400 nes games ? Do you think you are james rolfe or something

Why would it matter? It's not like you can only take one pair of underwear or one toothbrush with you while traveling.

There would be a law against owning more than one of something?

Edit: Hang on, you don't even go through customs if you're travelling domestically.

 

[Ourobolus]

There's no customs when going from state to state. You're fine as long as it fits in your bag.

Op knows

This is a brag thread.

 

[PackerinMN]

Where are you from that makes you worry about this?

 

[smurfx]

owning 400 nes cartridges is something to stealth brag about?

 

[KHarvey16]

Guys, if I cash my paycheck for the week and store all $10k in a briefcase, will customs flag me? Keep in mind my penis is 13 inches, if that matters.

This is a gaming forum.

Sure the op could have got a decent pair of jeans with the cash he spent getting all they games but who are we to judge ?

Why would customs get involved if it is state to state?

Crappy stealth brag

NES games melt when they're put under the scanner, tough break

Haha. OT I'd call ahead maybe and see what they say about it

 

[Joni]

OP is a terrorist transporting bombs via NES cartridges posing as a gamer. US customs will destroy them all.

Lol..this is as far from brag threads as it gets. It might actually be the opposite. I can't see the issue, op. You're traveling from state to state and with nothing but some personal items.

The awful part is that they would assume you were going to buy drugs with that money and confiscate it.

They'd let you keep your massive dong, though.

Actually this. You may want to ship them as I wouldn't want to risk running them through the scanner.

Oh ok good, because I use that to make my money. You know, by having lots of sex with girls.

 

[Evil Benius]

For people wondering why it would matter, if he has a lot of duplicates I could see customs assuming he was bringing them in for resale. Of course none of this matters if he is traveling domestically like the post implies.

You joke, but that would actually get your cash seized.

I'll just take one of my cars.

LoL. Thanks guys for the answers and funny comments

I wouldn't trust security with anything of value in my luggage. I've had stuff go missing and know a lot of people who have as well.

 

[EnderWiggles]

If they see you with 400 NES cartridges, they'll likely strip search you out of pity, just so at least one person sees your penis before you die

 

[golem]

Would there be harm when they xray them? I would just ship them imo

Anything of real value you should put in carry on. My camera and jewelry always goes in carry on.

It's legal (edit: I assume) but they are also allowed to get suspicious and demand to open your carts up or something.

Hate airports.

Dude, 400 NES is totally badass. I wish i still had my NES

400 copies of Shaq fu?

Shit! That may actually be an achievement. Someone managed to collect more copies than actually sold.

 

[RevDM]

No restriction.

As a bonus, you'll have your penis fondled by TSA.

 

[Mysterious Stranger]

Sir we going to have to confiscate these.

 

[Timedog]

You joke, but that would actually get your cash seized.

What is this I don't even...

Suddenly you can't take your cash with you on a plane? Or would they look into it and then return the cash if there's no evidence of any wrongdoing? I don't get it.

Watch out for those Wyoming border guards!

Well for international traveling I'm sure I've heard there's a limit. As for state to state, I've never heard of a limit.

They're right. If you take a certain amount of bills, you'll get flagged. Mainly on overseas flights.

Whether or not you'll actually get stopped or searched probably depends on the airport and if the TSA see a hot girl they want to grope instead.

OP, if you punch the cracked wall before the scanners you can bypass the security check and if you get caught by security camera just hide in a cardboard box until the alert passes and the guards go back to normal, then just figure out the jumping pattern of the security dogs and run underneath them and you're homefree as long as the time limit doesn't run out.

Sound advice. Do this.
