I was hunting on Dantooine to relax a bit, and got contacted by a customer who needed me to slice some scatter pistols. I told him i was on a hunt, but could meet him on Dantooine since i was not so far from the Imp Outpost.
That suited him pefectly since he had to come to Dantooine, but he wondered if he would avoid the hypothetical patrols, he was fully loaded with spices, sliced weaponds and had no droids available.
As you can imagine i jumped in the occasion to offer him to smuggle his goods to his home,as a bonnus for his slices, he was glad to accept my offer.
It was pretty short time eating, very easy and withoput any opposition, but for the first time within 6 months i had the feeling i was doing my job. The customer was happy too (maybe he doesn't know the penalty for being caught with illegal goods) and i got a good tip from him.
That leaded me to imagine some payer event based smuggling, say you get a couple of smiths ask smugglers to deliver weapons and armors to customers, have them tracked by imperial rangers to get them "trapped" by a patrol and eventually they would have to find a way to make the delivery in time. they would have to be smart to use some lesser used shuttle or starports, they would have to go through rebel facilities to get rid of imperial pursuers and so on... you can imagine any sort of way to avoid detection, and you can imagine any tracking method for the law enforcers, if they got found, they even would have to fight their way out.
What do you think about that?

Yep, this is the way to do it. I irregularly transport 'cargo' to special magical individuals
