Editor summary

K Bar K Prep and Ship (the site's name is K Bar K Packing) is a small FBA prep operation in Montana, a state with no sales tax. The domain dates from April 2022, and the earliest archived copy (May 2022) already offered FBA receiving, inspection, FNSKU labeling and shipment prep at $1.00 per unit. Today's homepage publishes a full rate card: $1.25 per unit received, beside a services list of receiving, inspection, label removal, damage photos and FNSKU, fragile, suffocation and do-not-separate labels (the page does not say which are included). Books are $2.00 plus a poly bag, shoes $2.50, oversize items (over 12 inches or 10 pounds) $4.00, and FBM orders $2.50 plus prep and mailers. Bundles cost $1.25 per item for the first two and $1.00 per item after that. Poly bags run $0.30 to $1.15, new boxes $2.50 to $5.25, and setup is a one-time $50. Stated turnaround is 24 to 72 hours, and it takes no hazmat or dangerous goods. Billing runs on the 1st and 15th by PayPal, card or Square. Cautions: contact is a Gmail address and a 406 phone number. The site publishes no street address, so it is listed at state level, and its booking pages are still unfinished Wix placeholders. The owner's 20-plus years in business is unverified.
