i think you can pretty much just ship to any address with a virtual credit card attached to it. all this is easy to do in stripe or any banking api these days. then once the package is sent just reroute it for an extra $15 or use a service. you'd be surprised how sophisticated people can get. amusingly if they spent the same amount of effort doing something legit they would be just as successful. but then again you don't get the fun of making money from a grey markets. oh and IP? i hope you are kidding. there are several IP proxy services out there where you can literally ask for a city to proxy through. most people have cable which results in rotating ips over time. almost no one has fixed ips like they had with dsl back in the day.

Consider the source. What year is it, 1998?

Also there are pretty strict consumer privacy laws in CA. Obey is not sharing customer information with third parties. They've already learned that lesson, trust me.

I think they're pretty neat, but yeah I hear you. They either click with folks or they don't. Doesn't seem to be a lot of middle ground.

Yeah, agreed, me either, but after being shutout on most drops I ended up going for this trying a different checkout technique. I scored one, but I don’t think it was from my changes, just much lower demand imo

Same! Except UPS mangled the tube so badly. May be the worst tube damage i've ever seen. Some of the ink from the print was rubbed off on the kraft paper. Hoping to get a replacement set. They're beautiful in person and the gold really pops.
