I want to ship a bottle of wine from New Jersey to a business associate in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. I was told the alcohol can not be shipped over state lines into Pennsylvania or delivered within the state of PA. Is this true? How do I get a bottle of wine to this business associate? Thanks for the help.

Hand carry it......!?!

Ship it anyway. Pack it in an unmarked container, yourself. Take the container to the shipper. If you think it necessary have them box your container to "double wrap" it, if you will.

You are under no obligation to tell the shipper what is in your package, besides they usually don't ask.

If asked, I never said a thing.........

Mum or not...Thank you, Thank you. What was I thinking being the good law abiding citizen. "If you want it done right, do it yourself". Thanks again.

People will violate ridiculous laws. This was seen when the gov dropped the speed limit on highways. The CB radios sold by the millions and people drove 70 mph anyway. One day we will come into the 21 century and have leagalized wine shipping in all 50 states. Until then, you just do what you gotta do......
