I bought some specialised pens (for marking out on metal) from a
Facebook ad. The vendor sent regular updates on the progress of the package

6/2: Anchorage,99695,United States,The shipment has been processed
7/2: The shipment has left the sorting center.
9/2: The shipment is in transit in Madison,53711,United States
12/2: The shipment arrived at the customs of United States.
15/2: The shipment is being inspected at the customs of United States.
18/2: The shipment has been shipped to Australia.
23/2: The shipment is declared at the customs clearance of Australia.
25/2: Arrived Shipping Partner Facility in the Australia.

And the goods arrived as advertised today. So what? Well the senders
address on the package was

Ao Rui Zhen
1B next door to No.1
Great China Middle Section
Fifty Metres Avenue
Shantwei City
Guangdong Province
China.

The transaction was legit, so why the pantomime about the goods journey
from Alaska?

Unlikely there is any deliberate fraid involved
given that it is pretty odd coming from Alaska.

More likely he had discovered that that works out
cheaper for the majority of his sales to americans
that shipping individual orders from Shantwei City.

Interesting that Alaska Airlines has a major
hub in Achorage where they do quite a bit
of very heavy maintenance on real antiques
like C47s and Electras which they still use.
Presumably they use the specialised pens that
you may have ordered for the same sort or work.

There is no fraud because I got the goods and they seem to be as
advertised. I just can't understand the charade of all those bullshit
messages.

I meant fraud in the sense of misrepresenting where the pens were shipped
from.

> I just can't understand the charade of all those bullshit messages.

It is very far from clear that there is any charade.

They may well have be shipped from Anchorage.

I know that Buffalo Airways in Canada still use C47's and Electra's and
also that at one time Alaska used those aircraft but I can't find
anything saying that Alaska still flys those old planes?

If you're flying Alaskan on one of their 737 Max-9s, try and avoid seat
26K, if you can't avoid it check for bolts rolling around on the floor :)

Are you trolling or just plain stupid? A final e-mail came today

Detail status of the logistics:【AU】已妥投,2024-02-26 10:10:00.

The Chinese characters translate as "Delivered". The package never went
anywhere near Alaska, or in deed the USA, it came straight from China.

When it comes down to it, it doesn't matter, I got what I ordered, but
the e-mail charade is just weird.

End of story.

Irrelevant to where the package actually went.

You don't know that, and can't explain why
the seller claimed it came from Achorage.

You don't know that is was a charage.

Likely when they were going very cheap indeed.

Bit surprising in some ways given how low to the ground the engines are.

Likely to be 'interesting' for the engine if they
come off the cleared runway into a snow drift.

Very likely but they did spend a lot of money getting it up to spec.

That wouldn't be fun, its main use is between Edmonton and Yellowknife
shuttling freight so between 2 decent size airports.
AFAIK the 737 200's can operate into unsealed runways if fitted with a
"gravel kit", don't know if the 300's can do that, possibly not with
bigger engines being closer to the ground.
