    I am down to 3 possibilities (unless I am wrong). One of them has left no clues and hasn't been on BA for almost 2 weeks. I will call out @Franfab

    I may not be your target but I have a feeling you'll be sending a box this way.

    Down to 5 possible senders as long as everyone knows what states are sticky icky legal.

    2 of them have given more than 8 clues
    2 of them have given less than that, 1 due to a username error
    and 1 hasn't given any but I have that handshake tick.

    Not quite ready to go full on @Bert00 though (the new @Joenap419 )

    Dropped off two boxes for CA yesterday. One at each UPS location near me. This is an experiment to see which is faster (or the same), although I'm assuming they will both be slow.

    Haul hint - sorry not sorry for the total oz's

    Hint 7: If you have posted more hints than me at this point, you are not my target
