Living somewhere the domestic route does not exist, which makes most of the advice on this board inapplicable to me.
What I actually want to know is which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition.
Happy to be told the question itself is wrong.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from an Australian compounder. Customs can be hit or miss.
Shipping time: 5-10 days
Customs clearance: was seized once, reshipped free
Quality: Janoshik tested at 97.2% purity
International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas:
Package cleared customs in 2 days, no issues.
Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

This matches mine closely enough to be worth saying so out loud.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. The honest answer is that the effect is real, the magnitude is contested, and the individual variation is larger than either. Those three things can all be true at once, and most arguments here are two people holding different parts of that.
