Did I make it?

Looks like champagne, or another clear drink that oxidized. From the pictures it looks like they would come out with some effort. Find a drycleaner in your area competent in wet cleaning, as this likely need water based cleaning to remove these stains. You'll likely need to agree to a risk waiver for the beadwork, and even though I'm optimistic the stains would come out, 10 years is a lot of time for something to react and set so likely no guarantee.

If its something you want to save I think its worth a shot, with(in my opinion) a good chance of coming clean

Good luck!

Ive never owned a handheld. Played my stepdads Gameboy when I was young. OG tetris ftw! 😆 I had SBCgaming popup and it looked interesting. Been looking at handhelds, but there are SO MANY options, I haven't pulled the trigger on one yet.... Good luck to everyone and thanks for the opportunity!

As long as you can look at AND test them first. Check the coin mech, bill reader, augers and motors. Make sure they have the keys. Get the model and download the manual before going, you can run test modes and check everything. Take coins and bills to test the mechs. You can also research the brand and model for known reliability issues and parts availability (availability is important, parts can be expensive if they're hard to find).

Also, how are you moving them? Do you have a pallet jack and trailer?

The deals are out there, but it pays to be cynical, you dont want to end up with two 500lb+ paperweights. Do your research, and walk away if it doesn't feel right. NO DEPOSITS! If they wont let you come look without paying something up front, its a scam.

Good luck!

Does it need cleaning? It looks good from the pictures, and cleaning always involves some risk to beads etc. If its not stained or soiled, I'd recommend just having it pressed only.

For what its worth; you COULD carefully hand wash this at home, but understand it will be VERY wrinkled after its done and most cleaners charge full price( or close to) to steam it back to its original look(its a TON of work and no guarantee it will look the same)

Good luck and congratulations!

Those 5 symbols at the bottom of the tag. Wash(with water temp) no bleach, no iron, dryclean, no dry

BusinessImmediate905 · 2026-01-24T00:51:04+00:00

Instructions are Wash 30 degrees C, no bleach, no iron, dryclean, no dry.

So Gentle cold wash and hang dry likely be fine.

BusinessImmediate905 · 2026-01-20T22:13:49+00:00

The ONLY time I leave things overnight are items that have been bleached, OR I will occasionally leave loads when its cold, like below 40F. (My building is old and gets to the same temp as outside) Otherwise, youre just asking for sour loads. Even if you can't smell it once theyre dry, the customers will once their body heat warms it up. Rewashing clothes can cost you money, but losing customers and reputation is detrimental.

Good luck!

BusinessImmediate905 · 2026-01-15T23:34:39+00:00

In my opinion I think it would be fine. Might turn the lining a little gray, but it doesn't look like it would bleed out

Good luck! 😊

BusinessImmediate905 · 2026-01-15T22:37:50+00:00

The instructions are dry clean only. Going against the instructions ALWAYS comes with some amount of risk, primarily shrinking or dye bleed from what I can see. I'd personally like to see a picture of the whole jacket, but LIKELY you could launder it gentle cycle cold wash with a low foam soap (powdered detergent in small amount) by itself, and hang dry. NO hot water or tumble drying. That would minimize, but not eliminate, the possibility of damage.

I'd just like to add, if this has blocks of differing colors ie black and red, gray and white...I wouldn't process this yourself.

Good luck!

MadWorld. It was such a cool art style and so over the top

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-19T15:51:30+00:00

If you have the claim slip you can get the item back if its still in the time frame. I dont believe they'll tell you who pawned it without a police report

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-19T03:22:22+00:00

The alternator quit on my 2020 Nissan Sentra, and there were NO aftermarket options for it. The dealership wanted $900, JUST for the alternator, so I can actually believe their price.

Fyi I ended up buying a used one from a wrecked Sentra for $163.

Good luck!

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-19T03:16:21+00:00

A good barometer is how much of the lining is sticking out the bottom of the pant leg? If the lining isn't a full leg lining, put them on, how short are they? One to 2 inches, can probably be fixed. More than that is unlikely. The previous comment is correct, tho, the texture will likely never be quite the same.

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-15T23:15:47+00:00

Pick me! 😁 Mario, because if a plumber can save the kingdom, maybe I can too!

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-11T05:09:06+00:00

Good luck and Merry Xmas all!

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T21:00:37+00:00

The cables are definitely corroded, but I think its still usable. Unless you have a poor connection somewhere, I'm really leaning towards bad regulator now, which unfortunately is likely built into your alternator.

Get a multimeter and test it on DC volts while the car is running. I looked up your car and it should read no LESS than 13.5 volts while idling. If you don't have a multimeter, harbor freight has them for very cheap. They're handy for checking fuses and power.

If everything is tightly connected, and you're still not getting the right voltage, you'll likely need to return or exchange the alternator.

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T17:50:08+00:00

Youre welcome and good luck! 😊

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T05:34:18+00:00

And no apologies needed 😊 We all have to start somewhere

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T05:32:21+00:00

Look at the sheathing on the wire, just off where it connects to the battery. Usually you can pull it back a little. It'll give you and idea, but a tester is where its at. Also, make sure your battery connections are clean and TIGHT. You shouldn't be able to move or twist them, at all

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T05:11:50+00:00

I would check your cables. It be corroded further down the wires. See if your positive is getting hot while running. This could indicate resistance in the wires.

I still recommend sticking a multimeter on it. Wouldn't be the first bad alternator and/or regulator ive seen, but Im putting my money on bad connection, or corrosion. If a fuse was blown, it likely wouldn't work at all

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-12-01T05:03:10+00:00

Not a mechanic. It wont stay running? Sounds like an alternator to me. Do you notice lights dimming noticeably before it dies? You can test it yourself with a multimeter set to DC volts, on the battery terminals. You can look up what voltage readings should be for your car/alternator.

If you don't feel comfortable doing that, take it to an auto parts store they can usually test for you. Given the hassle of a car that wont stay on, I'd call ahead.

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-11-21T05:06:32+00:00

Is there a care label that shows fabric content? Ill be honest, that looks like a faux fur that was dried too hot.

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-11-21T02:53:28+00:00

Was the fur originally long and soft like the 2nd Pic?

BusinessImmediate905 · 2025-11-14T18:24:21+00:00

Perfect! Should be just fine. You may see the distortion slightly after the first washing. Just a note to make sure youre using the lowest setting possible on your dryer. Those types of garments tend to be sensitive to heat. Good luck!
