How bout shipping the carbs(listed as engine parts), instead of carbs?
while in college, a classmate got thc shipped to him in a box marked crest toothpaste consumer samples? Just curious?

My question to seller...

Can you please tell me more about these carbs such as how did you obtain them and are the photos of the actual carbs you are selling? Thanks in advance.

Photos are accurate. We receive everything in large lots from a large company

"I know you stole these carbs."

Almost the exact same reply, but a touch more defensive. I think they know something's up.

Carbs sold. Reseller got more $ than I did. Oh well.

The proof of the pudding will come IF the buyer gets them in his hand.
Be interesting to follow and see if there's a complaint - and any subsequent action.

Canadian import taxes killed that market

??? I'm curious, BuffaloBill- there shouldn't be ""import taxes" with FreeTrade. When I get stuff from the states, it's nothing more than salestax and only then, if it's worth their bother to collect.
Thing is, NEVER ever use any shipper except national postal systems (Canada Post or USPS) or maybe, the ebay one which works fine for me from the states...

yeah. A cheat. Well, I will call this "drop-shipping" by another name...By your own definition:

Drop shipping is when you sell something you don't have. After the sale is made an order is placed with the distributor/manufacturer (insert "PitneyBowes/ Interceptor" here) with a "ship to" address of the end user....

because I bet the seller never had these carbs in their possession...just relabelled to the new buyer from the PB warehouse.
