For Sale? Lessons learnt, lessons burnt.
I try my best to think through my online purchases before I reach for the ol' credit card, but my judgment seems to have fallen through this time, as I've spent an embarrassing amount of money on a huge box of incense scent unsmelled, only to receive it and find that it's not to my taste... and now I have 449 sticks of it.
Is anyone on my flist interested in buying a decently discounted package of Ka-Fuh Smokeless Bamboo Incense, 450 Sticks bulk package from me? I intend to burn two or three more sticks of it this week to make sure there's no chance of it growing on me, but if you buy it you will in all likelihood receive pretty much the entire package. (The original stick count is approximate anyway, if you're bothered by odd numbers.)
Exactly what you get.
The only note is bamboo, and the scent is pretty accurately bamboo-ey, although it's achieved (apparently) through generous use of bergamot. So if you like bamboo and/or Earl Grey tea (I forgot that I didn't), you may like this incense. If you're wary as I should have been of buying such a huge amount of incense without sampling it, I can send you a couple of sticks in an envelope beforehand as a sample. I'm not a good judge of scents (apparently some of my favorites are considered unbearably synthetic and artificial by people who know better), but people who know better have judged this particular line of incenses to be natural and of good quality for the price. Furthermore, it is indeed smokeless or emitting so little smoke as to be negligible. This is a Japanese-style incense, so it has no wooden stick in it and turns entirely to ash when burnt. Also, the sticks are 5.25" long and burn for around a half hour.
The main reason I bought so much is that a) this scent is discontinued entirely and b) the site I bought it from only had this size left.
Again, I'm going to burn or sample out a few more sticks to potential buyers, but you will be receiving almost the complete package. If you like, I can throw in samples of any of the other incenses I have to make up for the lack.
That is indeed my hand in the picture.
I paid about USD$25 for this box including shipping, but I'm going to take reasonable offers. That price comes to about 5.5 cents per stick. I'm going to guess that shipping to you will cost around $3-4 if you're in the States. Additionally, if I can't get this off my hands as-is, I'll probably be willing to parcel it out in smaller portions. If I do that, it'll probably be in portions of no less than fifty sticks per parcel, and I'll roll them in paper by hand. I have a paypal account, but I don't think I can take personal checks unless I know you IRL.
My apologies for the gratuitous bold and pretentious phrasing in this post.
