Gray market. I worked for a direct sales firm as backroom staff. In in-home sales the salesman takes a lot of time to demonstrate the product. Sometimes he convinces the customer of the product but the customer buys it from a store such as a pawn shop where new ones are sold without the markup which is the salesman's commission. That happens when a dealer in another territory gray markets the product. It undermines the whole business. The guy I worked for was from Texas and he called it "bojacking" and the gray marketers "bojackers". The gray market items were sold without a warranty and I wrote a computer program to spot a pattern of lots of units ordered but few warranties coming back. Since he came from Texas and Texas is next to Louisiana I suspected the term was from Cajun French as "Beau Jacque." I see elsewhere that Beau Jacque or Beau Jocque is indeed Cajun for a big guy or good ol' boy.
