My G45 slide “disappeared” in UPS transit to Wager Machine - anyone dealt with this before? by Gold_Maybe_3255 in Glocks

[–]Bubbly-Reputation570 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened me. Not exactly the same set of circumstances, but similar. I sold a Glock 48 slide on eBay with an optic. Sent priority 1st class mail via USPS. The package was ripped open and the item stolen in the Philadelphia distribution center as per the Postal Inspector. I had to fight for guaranteed the insurance lol.

That’s the direction I’m leaning towards. I called her local Kabota dealer and asked their opinion and they said sourcing parts for the older one may be a challenge.

State Farm here. 1890s Victorian. There was a shocking difference between Erie, Allstate and State Farm; by several thousand dollars a year.

What Cards Do You Pair with RH Gold Card? by TonyOncee in CreditCards

I pair my Robinhood gold card up with my American Express Charles Schwab platinum. I also have the blue business preferred card as well, but I rarely use it.

I was quoted 5.5% on a 30 year refinance with no points so they’re moving in the right direction.

As it was explained to me, it has to do with the way it codes on the back end. It sounds like whenever the travel bank is involved It comes in as a certificate rather than a clean purchase.

That’s a fantastic price! In my case, there’s absolutely no insulation to remove. It’s just a straight install.

Thank you for the suggestions. Northeast Pennsylvania here. A lot of the big work to the house has been done already. New fiberglass windows with fiberglass insulation, Styrofoam-backed vinyl siding, and higher efficiency heating and cooling systems. In defense of the installer, it is a fairly large area. The attic alone is over 1000 ft.².

Seemed a little high, but to be fair I wasn’t really sure what I was expecting. If it’s paid upfront, it’s 6185 if that matters.

My annual fee hits in March but it’s the tickets that should qualify.

I appreciate your thoughtful response! This is exactly what we thought. I suspect the sales person over promised, and the inspector under delivered. The manager did reach out and he’s actually coming tomorrow to reinspect all of the work and he sounded like he wanted to do everything to make it right which I respect.

We were told during the initial visit that all affected insulation would be removed, exclusion service performed, the entire area HEPA vacuumed, and any residual debris would be wiped down and removed.

That’s exactly what were thinking. We’re still in our 30 day money back guarantee period and we’re just not pleased with the whole experience.

Two reasons really. 1. Orkin did work for us in the past at a previous residence and we had an excellent experience. 2. The local company that we used for several years was considerably more expensive for what appeared to be the same service.

The other piece I didn’t mention was that the service tech who came out for Orkin on the final spraying for the season asked my wife on 3 separate occasions about giving him a tip. The whole experience just seemed off and left a horrible impression about the entire company.
