    Travelers Swiss question

    I'm no longer seeing the "edit" option so I clicked the "report post" button and requested the Moderator delete our antagonistic posts. It is up to them now

    Travelers Swiss question

    You really should get all the available info before jumping to conclusions. I listed 2 lbs at my cost, not lots and lots and high prices. And then I immediately removed the auction after Toby told me to.

    Travelers Swiss question

    He told me that it was repackaged in 2016= it was made in 2016. It is up to you if you believe him or not. Functionally it appears to be generally known that approx 6 years old is not remotely old or remotely a problem if properly stored. I think it is safe to say that in the sealed plastic...

    Travelers Swiss question

    He said it was repackaged in 2016, so as black powder goes, it is not "old" as long as it was stored properly before re packaging.

    Travelers Swiss question

    Thank you for posting the real hazmat fees. I see it should have been $44. He charged me $125 for shipping and hazmat, said $100 was for hazmat alone. So it appears he marked it up...I was too trusting, I just believed him when he said what the fees were. His price per pound was cheaper than...

    Travelers Swiss question

    Yes, agreed. Black powder, properly stored can be good for decades, that being said, I'll ask how old it is next time before buying. Like I said, I'm still wet behind the ears and am learning, sometimes by mistakes like this. I hope whatever was causing angry guy to be angry subsides and he...

    Travelers Swiss question

    p.s. edit- just received another email now saying the powder was manufactured in 2016, so at least that question has now been answered. Again, yes I'm new and wet behind the ears. Now I know to ask more questions before buying.
