    Probably should be in the "custom paint" category. Sale price at least fifty bucks, if not more. To be bought and operated on the Poor Vision & Too Much Extra Money RR.

    This is kind of limiting your customer base (if it's even within eBay rules...)

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/JLot106-N-...190540?hash=item4b7416adcc:g:A5kAAOSwqDVZc6Sw

    (Quote from the listing... excuse the all caps, but I did change the color from bright red and reduced the font size...) So right now this seller won't ship to 41 states or DC? (If I can count correctly)

    ...and these changes are new since the January 1 2020 change of:


    ATTENTION: EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2019, NO SALES OR SHIPMENTS WILL BE MADE TO AN ADDRESS WITHIN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

    ALL WINNING BIDS WITH CALIFORNIA, SHIPPING ADDRESS WILL BE CANCELED.

    I Will No Longer Be An Unpaid State Worker Without A Lucrative Salary Or Pension For The Bankrupt State Of Sunny California. I Am Through Hassling With The State Board And Paperwork. There Are 106 Taxing Jurisdictions That I Am Required To Keep Separate Records For. I Quit!!

    I guess by quitting, he means actually SELLING anything on Ebay :lol:

    I thought eBay is handling all the tax payments to the states?

    Sorry, Your Neighbors Voted For Taxes. I Decline To Collect Them.

    RETURNS Are Not Practical Considering Shipping Cost Involved.
