    I have , like , 15,000 small pistol primers I don't need and a need for small rifle primers and CFE223 powder . Myself and others thought about opening a barter thread in other forums to help each other out .
    Turns out Hazmat is not just a fee we pay as a service . WE , the shipper , must complete a course and be licensed then use those forms to register ourselves with the shipping company so they will pick the packages up from us . Failure to do this is a $250K fine per offence . If you order from someone on line and it comes in without a Hazmat sticker , you now know that that person isn't licensed . You are not required to report him , but using him again could lead you into trouble and fines greater than 85K . Is it worth it ?

    Interesting point, we don't have to do that. I can ship primers using an agency that has dangerous good cert...like Loomis or Canpar for instance. I don't remember if I have to disclose the presence of flammables or explosive content... Price is reasonable and shipping is much faster than mail.

    If you are required to slap a Hazmat sticker on it , they'll have to know .
    I am not aware of such a service here in the US , i.e. , a private company with outlets who's Hazmat approved to receive primers and powder , pack them , then hand them off to a shipper . I don't think there is , but I don't know everything , I just sometimes think I do .
