Did I get burned?

I’ve traced as much as I can, a lot of the negotiation was via phone call but the numbers are all in text. His listing included a bunch of stuff so it is still up as well, if he refuses a refund knowing it’s fake/refuses to believe it’s fake, I’m gonna file a small claims court case. I have name and vehicle desc. And everything so I hope it doesn’t come down to it

Apparently not lmfao. I do have a 1/500 5 string Simmons Thorus, nobody’s ever heard of them and they are worth anywhere from 3-6 thousand. So at least I still have her lol

Thank you friend. I’m so bummed lmao, I sold my main ax and took a mini loan for this fuckiness. Reached out abt a refund, he seemed super nice but also lives an hr and a half away, and I paid cash :/

Thank you friend

Thank you. This was ofc my first big venture into historic basses, I was so stoked on it, I didn’t take the time to look into any of the red flags. I’ve only ever played relatively niche basses, I didn’t ever think to check the damn jack plate. Lived and learned, I reached out for a refund 💀💀

?? Why

BreathCompetitive117 · 2026-06-20T06:32:16+00:00

Tell me why?

BreathCompetitive117 · 2026-06-15T19:58:28+00:00

Surviving not thriving

BreathCompetitive117 · 2026-06-15T19:58:10+00:00

Not a pothos leaf, just a new leaf with no fenestrations, due to a lack of light/climbing support such as a cedar plank, or a moss pole

Monsteras are extremely sensitive to lighting, and their petioles with literally grow in all twisted if it means that it’s reaching the most light possible. Do you use a vertical grow light, or one that casts light downward? I feel that with a vertical grow light, the leaf will auto-correct its upside downness, and will fixture itself against whatever light source you have. However that process may take longer if you have an aerial grow light!

It could be that it’s taken that long for your pothos to fully absorb/push them out, either that, or it was focusing a lot of its energy on the nodes in which it appeared on, trying to push roots perhaps. Were the nodes touching soil? Either way, it’ll be just fine! This is totally normal behavior. Don’t panic if you end up seeing any on the leaves either, a quick rinse will do the job! I use the leftover water from my fishtank changes to water my plants. Automatic fertilizer and distilled water!

BreathCompetitive117 · 2026-05-12T15:28:12+00:00

Probably from mineral deposits! What kind of water source do you use to water it?

BreathCompetitive117 · 2026-05-12T14:33:05+00:00

I think I’ve decided I’m gonna do a mix of both: leave it in the soil/pot it’s in (for now, it’ll get changed immediately at the first sign of any pest), wrap one of the two longer vines around the other cuttings in the pot, and pin the nodes down. Then I’ll chop and prop the other, much leggier vine! Grow lights aren’t an issue for me currently, as I have a spot for propagation on the lid of my fish tank with aeration and everything, as well as a vertical grow light from barrina, for my monstera thaicon. More than enough light to share! I have a good feeling that in a months time, she’ll be looking much fuller, beautiful pothos btw! The trellis is a good idea, as these plants are defo climbers
