eBay. Internet International Relations....
Unbelievable. It never ceases to amaze me what people will purchase with eBay.
I had a 12 quart case of 10W30 Amsoil Synthetic motor oil left over after my truck was totalled. The replacement truck takes 5W30 so I figured, what the hell, lets see who'll bite on the internet.
It sold.
For $76.00.
Plus shipping. (The case weighs 25#.)
To a dude in Ripollet, SPAIN!
The shipping cost him another $40 and will probably take upwards of 6 weeks to arrive.
Also, given that it took 45 minutes of phone calls and book searches to determine if it was even OK to ship motor oil overseas, (They don't ship internationally all that often from Slaughter, Louisiana I guess.), I was able to read a bit ot the International Mail Manual. I found out that it is unacceptable to ship PLAYING CARDS to Spain.
Whodathunkit?

Too funny! Really quite interesting! No playing cards? I truly do wonder why. Seems completely harmless;maybe they have a home grown card manufacturer and he doesn't like competition!
