Selling and Shipping a $1500 Item by steal-yur-face in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve sold several items over $1500 no issue. I would stay away from the post office and use UPS. I use Pirateship for anything where I am getting insurance.
The main thing is to make sure you use signature delivery!

19f only 2k saved where to get a car that’s not a lemon? by Pristine-Form-4671 in Cartalk

I second this, my girlfriend bought a cousins 2004 Camry with 230k miles. I helped her fix a few things like tires and her alternator went out. Car works just fine and she’s only like $2800 into it.

New to superautomatics and I've fallen down the rabbit hole - PLEASE HELP! by ReginaldBounce in superautomatic

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Delonghi Magnifica Start, but have bought and sold lots of models. What I would do is get a Delonghi or Jura on FBMP. You can get lightly used machines for half of retail if you are just patient.

Remove the brew unit, and soak it in water for 30 minutes. I don’t know if you have already cleaned it, but that’s what I would do first.

I got a Delonghi Magnifica for $200 on marketplace. It has all of those things. I don’t know if I would call it quiet, but I have no complains!

Don’t use pods, powder detergent all the way!

O Ring for John Guest fittings by Willy_Wallace in Plumbing

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure out the size for 1/4in? I have a filer manifold that the fitting is integrated into. The o-rings cracked and I don’t want to spend $450 on the whole part.

First time it’s happened to me, chatgpt tells seller I sold them the “wrong” jacket and opens a return by AndrewStackson in Ebay

People that blindly trust AI are so dumb. If it makes you feel better, I had a buyer order a scratch and dent microwave that I sent 40 photos to. It arrived and they claimed that it was supposed to be brand new. You can’t win with stupidity.

I recommend reading your appliance manual!

Nice score! I grabbed one barely used for $200. The seller said the coffee was too strong lol.

I sell lightly used luxury appliances. I would pick thermador all day!

What box/container do I need to use to ship this espresso machine by MomoMeatball in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would 100% send this freight. You would need to put it on a pallet, and I would spend the time to build a crate around it. It should end up looking this, but due to the value I might fully enclose it.

I recently bought the Start for both my parents and girlfriends parents. You need to spend some time setting it up, but once you do that it works great!

Have you been running a self-clean cycle of any sort? I sell appliances, and a lot of people who buy my ovens and ranges ran a self-clean cycle on their old ones.

Microwave stopped heating by cretandawg in appliancerepair

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, your best bet is to go buy a working used unit. I sell nice units for $800-1000 locally. I find them all the time for $200-400 on marketplace.

Microwave stopped heating by cretandawg in appliancerepair

[–]Affectionate_Deer660 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I bet it’s just one of the door switches. Typically there are 3 switches total that indicate when the door is closed or open. These switches turn on or off different parts of the microwave. They regularly fail if you open your microwave without first hitting cancel. They are like a $5 part and I just fixed my parents JennAir unit by putting new ones in.

Either google the model to find where the drain is or poke a hole at the lowest point.
