So I tried to buy a Super Lock Magnetic Detacher from a website and I ordered it but they canceled the order and said they dont ship detachers unless you buy it with one of thier systems.... so I asked if they would ship it with an order of inktags.... they said they would but only to a CONFIRMABLE business address.....

I went seachin to other websites and almost all of them somewhere in small print wrote they will not ship detachers in the USA unless you provide you business address some federal registration bullshit, etc, etc

And I couldn't find any on ebay either.....

so any ideas where i can get one short of stealing it from a store?
ie can I have it shipped to someone in canada since they dont confirm businesses there and have the person send it back to me in the US?

any ideas at all?

I don't know if this counts as a crisis . . . guess it depends on how bad you need that new hoodie . . .

I get stuff shipped to me all the time care of the place where i work, mainly because i live in a shit neighborhood and packages left on the porch disappear almost instantly.

If you dont have a job then find a friend who holds a good enough position at a business, a company, even a restaurant, so it wont seem necessarily suspicious as he/she is just a trusted, responsible employee asking a small favor. Ship to RIVAL c/o Friend's Company

You dont have to tell them what it really is, and dont have to open it there. <shrug> Just a thought . . .

Well, to confirm a business address, most companies would probably just call the given number and see if its a business. I doubt many companies would care enough to actually look into it. Just get caller ID, and if they call, respond appropriately.

God, Op you're full of fail.

Seriously, if you can't convince a internet website you're a fucking business then pathetic.

i fu from usa order from uk thats what i did. no problems, just have to wait longer.

inktag=giant magnet, neh?

go to walmart, get one of those flashlights you shake, open the bottom and take the magnet inside, its stronger than most magnests.

Thank you to all the mature helpful responses.

So I contacted a site from Britain and the guy says he will ship it to me but I have to call him to tell him about my business, I think I can bullshit it enough to make it go through.

Question to you vinipooh, which uk site did you use to get yours at?



as to the flamming dumb fucks, heres a sample response i got from a USA website

Unfortunately we only sell detachers to retail clothing stores that order
their tags and systems from us. Your order has been canceled.

Thank you,

Can I buy the detacher with an order of ink tags without the security gates? Because if I have an ink tag system there really is no need for the security gates.

You can, however you will have to provide a commercial business address to ship to and a way to verify your business.

All you have to do is hold a bigass magnet near the tip, and the tag falls right off.

That will also removed those locked peg hooks you see on expensive merchandise: apply magnet to top and pull towards you
