More than three decades ago, I was a registered medical supply dealer. Being a registered dealer, means that you are authorized to sell items that require a doctor's prescription.
Being the klismo that I was, I thought about selling some of my product line to the general public. So after much thought, I started ordering the single and double balloon versions of the Rusch barium enema nozzles. After a few months, however, I must have raised a huge Red Flag, since I've never ordered so many of these devices, until now. Typically, I might have sold maybe a dozen or so units per year, but now, I was selling that many per month!
The company became suspicious, and requested me to produce purchase orders, for every single one. Keep in mind, sales were regulated, by the Federal Government!
Long story short...since I was unable to produce those purchase orders, Rusch immediately cut off my supply.
I considered myself 'lucky', since they could have prosecuted me for selling without the necessary documentation.
To the best of my knowledge, this item is still regulated for sale only to those with a physician's order. Those who are still purchasing such items, I'm guessing, are obtaining them from a 'Black Market' source.
So that's my story regarding the sales of barium balloon nozzles.
Everyone, Stay Safe and Well.
