I recently read, that any tricky use of in-game mechanics to avoid getting hammered by the customs is considered an exploit.
Of such is the example of using the orca corporate hangar which has been since fixed, as well as the "wait one hour after dt" exploit.
There seem to be tricks that work to an extent having to do with fast warp action, but that again would be exploiting.
Is there such a thing as legitimate smuggling?
Only legitimate ways of smuggling I've read about have simply to do with finding routes that have no customs officials on them.
What are the facts concerning the customs officials?
- Do they always stick to the same gates or do they change gates?
- Do they catch you 100% or is there chance involved?
- Are there any in-game skills that influence this directly?
- Is it possible to smuggle to Jita for example legitimately without being caught in any form? |

I'm making a report on the current state of booster business and through that I have to include mechanics of smuggling.
By smuggling I then mean boosters, specifically. |

All fair and good, but does anyone have any facts concerning the customs? |

Lots of clueless talk it seems.
I actually had a nice chat with a guy running a working booster courier service throughout highsec, which can be found on the trade forums. He also gave me that trade secrets smirk, but after some poking answered that the tactic is wholeheartedly legitimate. What he considers legitimate is obviously questionable...
However, this is turning out to be such a myth that I'm planning on posting a 100 million tip for a working, doable, legitimate (as in not an oversight of customs mechanics = non exploit) method of running boosters wherever in highsec.
