Nice try. This is just an average sized onion, and a tiny banana. This raises the question: How much for the tiny banana?

If you don't trust me you can carry on.

I see your ad indicates local pickup only, but could you make a mild exception and ship it to me? I'm probably not far so it should be cheap for you to ship. Please ship to:

Me
PSC 769 BOX 700
APO AP 96599-9998

Note, this is McMurdo Station, Antarctica. Please ship quickly I expect the banana to still be fresh when it arrives on the next resupply plane in May. I will pay cash on delivery.

Damn dude you might win

I'm not local to Antarctica and I don't want to violate rule 3.

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Antarctica is not a nation, therefore its not international, therefore no rule #3 violation. Please ship quickly, its for a friend. I'll also be paying with a credit card that doesn't match my name nor anyone that I know. This won't be a problem right?

If it leaves your country, it has transitted an international boundary.

Shipments to Hawaii and Alaska are not international, yet both cross international boundaries with the continental USA.

Excellent! I'll be watching for the delivery. I'm very excited to take position of such an item!
