I had this idea before, looks like your testing around, I found that there were people doing this shipping with people traveling already, check this list out:

That would introduce some gratuitous thrill-seeking into my life. No thanks.

What am I going to tell the nice man at the border about what's in my luggage?

I think we call people who do this "mules".

you can agree with senders to disclose their items beforehand. otherwise, you don't have to!

You can just get in touch with the enlisted person! If there were no contact information or some info was wrong, please indicate so in the "flag" column.
