Interesting repackager of bulk motor oil for sale on Facebook Marketplace

[GON]

Unique find. A Facebook Marketplace seller in Rio Rancho, NM is offering repacked bulk motor.

Not something that is a match for me--- but give the seller kudos for trying.

The Seller's listing (and pictures from listing):
I have brand new 5-w30 motor oil, $5 for half gallon(two quarts),and $10 for whole gallon (four quarts). I have fourteen gallon jugs,and I have twenty half gallon jugs.

5W30 - so not homogenized

Good grief, think of the contamination.

 

[BobsArmory]

There is an additive that I was thinking of mixing with that. I heard a 10% mix will give me better MPG (moo per gallon)

Somebody thieving off a big O'l barrel!

Pretty hard to argue with anything with "Mighty" on the label.

Perfect for use in the winter!

Gotta go with BISCUT's theory (seller being an oil thief).

Was "local pick-up only" mentioned or will this clown ship oil in wildly inappropriate milk containers?

FYI: In their declaration screens, the Postal Service now mentions that the cost of clean-up of inadequately packaged materials can be charged to the shipper.

Thanks for the post.

Mighty is just a distributor. Back in the 80’s I bought some spark plugs from a private-named parts store. He gave me a box of “Mighty “ spark plugs. They were rebranded champions at the time. Never heard of them, so I naturally asked about them. Dude explained what they were and who made them. Since then I’ve seen filters and other parts clearly rebranded. I think they were just meant mainly for jobbers.

Sure sign me up, random motor oil, in cleaned out milk jugs, sitting out in the sun.

I was thinking the same, prolly been theiving it for his personal 25 year old truck until it died and now he’s stuck with excess oil

As a former quick lube owner this would give me pause.
