casEbay: "Due to restrictions on the sale of body armor in New York..."
"...items in the category cannot be shipped to addresses in New York."
Said
evil item. 
I'm trying to buy plastic clips for a back pack. Same company has it on Amazon for $5 more, oh well.
Oddly enough, didn't have any issues having actual body armor shipped to me. More "made up Ebay rules".

monoblokSounds about right. Amazon does similar things when it comes to shipping certain items to its own home state of WA. Stuff that can be found at local B&Ms--like certain insect control products, and BB and pellet guns just to name a couple--are verboten from Amazon.

Blume9mmThe really amazing thing is how do they keep up with all this stuff ... just not here in the U.S. but all around the world.... must take a boat load of people to manage it all.....

nhracecraft^^^Apparently they're not actually 'keeping up with all this stuff', unless you count incompetence and inaccuracy as qualities of the 'boat load' charged with managing it all.

sjtillI just tried ordering some compressed-air dust-off cans to clean my keyboard. Amazon can't ship. Maybe because...well, who knows? I also can't order a Grohe handheld shower head to "this address". I guess I'll have to do more bootleg shopping in Nevada or Arizona.

^ stupid right? FWIW: In Virginia you have to show ID to buy air-duster or sudephed. Forget where, I had to show ID to buy a can of spray paint. Now ID for voting? Well that's a different story, you know because it is MAGA racist to required that

casNY has a similar aerisol whipped cream law. Though I don't know if anyone's enforcing it.
Made me think of my trips to the Wall-Mart self checkout where I have to have someone "Ok" my purchase, and I say to them "Don't go away, everything in my cart is evil!"
(all needing an age check.. shotgun shells, brake cleaner, carb cleaner, spray paint... etc)

airsoft guyIt's the same here in Washington now, lots of companies just straight refusing to ship anything gun related here because the (D)ipshits have made things so complicated and conviluted and confusing. All according to plan.
Hey, the good news is you can do mag dumps into Asian businesses with your illegal machine gun, and then go zombie out on some fentanyl and never have to worry about a prosecutor nailing you to the wall.
