Market inspectors in the Binh Duong province raided a factory near Ho Chi Minh City, where they discovered used condoms being repackaged to be sold at the market. An inspector said the factory's 34-year-old owner, a woman, confessed they purchased the condoms from someone else, the state-owned Tuoi Tre newspaper reported, according to the AP.

After buying the condoms from a man, they were washed and reshaped, then packed in plastic bags, according to the newspaper.

VTV said it was unclear how many used condoms were already resold, according to Reuters.

I’ve bought retreads before, but quit after the first blowout. Who wants another accident?

A story I heard from the Depression: A neighbor noticed a woman’s mop had something strange placed on the handle.

“What’s that?”, she inquired.

“Oh, you know with the expense and all, we reuse that condom.”

It pays $15 an hour and all you can drink.

Why isn’t the Gates Foundation giving away condoms?

An Auntie Fa guy goes into a store to buy a box of condoms for the first time.

The clerk says, "That will be five dollars plus tax."

Auntie Fa guy says, ,"Oh, is that how you get them to stay on"

I was wondering how one would obtain 300,000 used condoms, then I remembered reading how, years ago, when the waters were high in the Chicago River, low branches in trees along the bank would be “festooned with used condoms.” Festooned. So maybe that’s how they got them.
