If the seller is based in china or the product is not fulfilled by Amazon let the buyer beware he may have to wait/fight for his money back, and the likelihood of it shipping is slim to none.

It's only about 64% off when you take into consideration the $7 shipping, but you have to buy 10 of them! Did it used to be Prime?

Btw just curious, how many bottles of gorilla glue have you bought in your life? For me I think it's two.

If it's FBA, yeah its worth a shot.
Seller fulfilled, the odds of a crazy deal being legit and honored are close to zero.

If you have to spend hundreds of hours worth of hassle to get one seller fulfilled deal, then I'd say it ain't worth it.

I've never needed more than one email to get refunded.
