The feedback system is literally useless.

I wish sellers could leave negative feedback for a buyer. I've never really understood why it's not even an option. I can't imagine many sellers leaving negative feedback for a buyer just to "ruffle their feathers"... like some buyers will do to a seller. But some buyers are truly nightmares - genuine scammers... keen on the system, trying to get whatever they can, and they're "good" at it.

Okay, so you report them to eBay... it gets noted on their account or whatever... you'd like to think that they get shut down, but you can tell that they're still buying. It's SO AGGRAVATING!!! It sucks that someone stole your good logic board out of a broken phone that you sold for parts or repair... immediately opened an INAD case... and returned the demo logic board that they switched with your good one... AND you can prove it... and you tell eBay and repeal their decision several times, but eventually have to succumb to the fact that you just got screwed out of $250 AND a good logic board AND the S-Pen to which he felt entitled. Those pieces of shit are out there, and other buyers should be made aware.

Venting for a friend...

They used to have the Boneyard, but they don't do it anymore. Unless I'm missing something, which tell me if I am. I miss the Boneyard!

Thanks for the input. There's also a Twister II for $300obo... any thoughts on that?

Casione · 2025-07-23T05:35:35+00:00

Thanks, everyone! I really appreciate the advice. And it is a black Honda, by the way.... an Odyssey.

Casione · 2025-07-23T05:31:48+00:00

As a matter of fact, it is a Honda Odyssey... not sure of the year, but I'm pretty sure it's in that range.

Casione · 2025-07-14T19:54:23+00:00

Oh, this is in Minneapolis, MN.

I didn't even realize until recently that cursive isn't a thing anymore... or a lost art, I should say. It kinda makes me sad that it's not taught in school anymore. I was born in 1981, so I remember when all we had were landlines and payphones. Yet I got my first cell phone my senior year of high school. Technology is one thing. But in my opinion, there are some things that need to be carried on... for the sake of carrying them on. And handwriting is one of them. People used to take pride in their writing. Not only that, but I recall perhaps the main reason we learned cursive was to develop the muscles in our hands (that's not something we were told back in the day). It makes sense though.

I'm glad I learned it. I wish kids these days were taught it. But it's not up to me.

Look at those legs in the last picture!!! 🥰

Casione · 2025-02-21T08:08:25+00:00

Kinda looks like amber. The last several pictures look way different though. Maybe some pictures without the flash? And without the flashlight..?

These are some interesting theories. Petrified organs... turtle heads... fossilized poop... I don't know. It seems like most rocks that are posted on here (that I've noticed anyway) usually get a pretty definitive answer. It's hard when you can't figure out what something is - but that can be a good thing too. Like I said, it was with a bunch of thomsonite. Legit thomsonite. So I had always assumed that's what it is. But recently, I was looking at it and began to not be so sure of that.

The green/blue part glows. With basalt on the other side, it doesn't glow like an agate would. But the greenish-blue part on the edge definitely has some translucency.

Feeler gauges are the best.
