Considering the fact that it's repackaged trailer bearing grease why not skip the middle man? Or is it that you just enjoy paying for a name?

It's a 3 oz (85 gram) tube as opposed to the POUND you get if you buy the can of trailer bearing grease for $2 less. Shipping? I can walk to the nearest Home Depot for free
