According to WIKI, it means: FOB, an abbreviation for either Free On Board or Freight on Board, is a term commonly used when shipping goods, to indicate who pays loading and transportation costs, and/or the point at which the responsibility and ownership of the goods transfers from shipper to buyer. The precise meaning of the term FOB varies.

Freight On Board. This is a term like for example the price of this item is 200.00 dollars FOB the factory. In other words you would still have to pay the freight from where ever it is coming from to get to you. I hope that explains it. What you have to know is how much does it cost to get to your door step. This is the simple way to ask how much something cost for real at your door step.

Delivery term.... Free On Board
A trade term requiring the seller to deliver goods on board a vessel designated by the buyer. The seller fulfills its obligations to deliver when the goods have passed over the ship's rail.
When used in trade terms, the word "free" means the seller has an obligation to deliver goods to a named place for transfer to a carrier.
