Again, given the number of spammy, crappy copycats, fake reviews bad products I have sort of lost my trust on Amazon. It's just super crappy.

Sears started by shipping homes by the way, it would be awesome for someone to pull this off in 21st century.

It already exists.. check out menards. Or call your local lumber yard and ask for a kit house.

Sears started as a mail order watch and jewelry company in 1886 (sold by Sears, then reformed in 1892 with Roebuck). They started selling houses in 1908. They already had the present day equivalent of over a billion dollar valuation at that point.
