I finally got orders to go active duty, but that becomes real when they're in my hands and I'm getting shipped. 

Called and they said it's "Standard Shipping" which takes up to 3 weeks to deliver.

You can get vinyl floor which uses a pressure adhesive and the planks do not ship-lap or interlock; this allows each plank to be pulled-up/replaced without disassembling the entire floor.In (converted) houses, I tend towards hardwood (engineered or traditional), a good quality laminate, or ceramic/porcelain tiles (if the subfloor is stable enough).In {older}, stick-built multis, you are often compelled to use soft flooring options (carpet, vinyl, linoleum, cork), particularly in bedrooms and living rooms, due to sound transference.  

It was out of Cape Hatteras, it was a replica ship made for several movies and provided cruises.

I truly think the wholesaling ship has sailed, Nancy Roth.

They do nail you with a good amount of shipping.

Charter a ship to haul your wares across the ocean.

I get annoyed with the guru-motivational speaking-hustler types that give you half an answer and make you pay for the next half, any guru that promotes a cruise ship seminar or bootcamp for thousands of dollars, guru's who don't actually invest in real estate for their main source of income, guru's who are regurgitating the same material and selling each other's stuff through affiliate programs, and such.I would follow my mentor's guidance and direction, master it, then conquer the world.If I made $20k a month then I would position myself as owner, not owner operator.

Sometimes they have free shipping.

Happy to ship them to you (for free) if you want them.
