The order was listed to take 15-25 days to get here. It came from the city of Guangzhou in Guangdong Province (Third hard hit are in China, at the time of this posting, no deaths). I opened the package with a pair of scissors, confirmed the order. Then double ziplocked bagged the little package and scissors. I placed them out in my garage on a shelf. Washed my hands several times and used hand sanitizer.

I logged onto the eBay page I purchased them from, to find out where they came from. On Thursday there was a notice the Seller was away till Feb 1st. Today the page says the Seller is away until Feb 3rd now.

So if anything happens to me, everyone here will know why.

So, either coronovirus, or you fell to your death because you relied upon chinese manufactured carabiners? :)
