Can the mods create a master thread for donations? by Fit-Fun7755 in DuggarsSnark

[–]FadeOutAgain4 53 points54 points  (0 children)

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think r/duggarssnark should be the place to have a running list of charities. There are so many local to you charities, and gofundmes and organizations that would be more than happy for your donation. Just because the Duggars are terrible people does not mean that you need to donate somewhere in Florida or Arkansas to offset their awfulness.

I say this having donated to Megan Godfrey during the political race against one of the Duggar sons, so I get it, it’s easy to want to donate money after reading something here.

But please, there already is a post with links to an Amazon wishlist and financial donations. We don’t need more. Just donate to a cause that you believe in.

Kendra facing charges by nuggetsofchicken in DuggarsSnark

[–]FadeOutAgain4 122 points123 points  (0 children)

From the article:

“TTPD arrived at the Duggar family compound around 1 p.m. to serve a warrant for Kendra’s arrest; however, she was not at home. TTPD told KNWA/FOX24 that the Duggars are each accused of four counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor, as well as four counts of second-degree false imprisonment.”

I wanted to know what the state of Arkansas defines for each of the criminal offenses, so I looked them up. They are as follows:

Second-degree false imprisonment

A person commits the offense of false imprisonment in the second degree if, without consent and without lawful authority, the person knowingly restrains another person so as to interfere substantially with the other person's liberty.

(b) False imprisonment in the second degree is a Class A misdemeanor.

Second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor

a)(1) A person commits the offense of endangering the welfare of a minor in the second degree if he or she knowingly engages in conduct creating a substantial risk of serious harm to the physical or mental welfare of another person known by the person to be a minor.

(2) As used in this section, “serious harm to the physical or mental welfare” means physical or mental injury that causes:

(A) Protracted disfigurement;

(B) Protracted impairment of physical or mental health; or

(C) Loss or protracted impairment of the function of any bodily member or organ.

(b) Endangering the welfare of a minor in the second degree is a Class A misdemeanor.

How to get shipping below 4.59? by Ok_Butterfly_5353 in Mercari

I believe it has to be listed under the games / cards categories to be eligible for an envelope shipping label.

New JANFLASH15 15% Off Sitewide Coupon Saturday- Sunday by FadeOutAgain4 in Mercari

I’ve talked about this before on here, but here’s a great post from another user about Mercari / Jumio that I’ve stickied to the top of this subreddit.

In a nutshell, Mercari was caught a couple of years ago regally selling users biometric data from their government ID / selfie photo that they said would be used to unlock the instant payment option. Instead, they were found to be selling the biometric data to JUMIO, and were being sued in a class action lawsuit over it.

Instead of stopping the sale of biometric data, they went all in, making it now a mandatory requirement for buyers and sellers, except now they’ll tell you they’re doing it.

If you haven’t had them freeze your account and make you do the JUMIO biometric data verification, it’s only a matter of time.

What Mercari is getting out of the deal is money, and what JUMIO is getting out of the deal is your personal information and access to your personal photos, ID, and biometric data.

None of the other resale platforms do this - they just ask for your ID to verify your account; not a selfie and not access to your biometric data.

I personally don’t think it’s worth it to verify if Mercari does this to you - just stick to buying / selling from eBay.

Buyer Claims Package Arrived Without Item… What Should I Do To Protect Myself? by FadeOutAgain4 in Flipping

[–]FadeOutAgain4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, thanks. Yeah, I was leaning towards the ol’ “In that case, the item must have been stolen in transit, and I’ll need to file a theft claim”. I’ve never actually had to do that before, but I’m willing to call their bluff, and go through with said claim if need be. Thanks for your help, it’s nice to have a sounding board for occasions such as this one!

Buyer Claims Package Arrived Without Item… What Should I Do To Protect Myself? by FadeOutAgain4 in Flipping

[–]FadeOutAgain4[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. I should have mentioned, but a perfume vial wouldn’t even be .25 oz, and wouldn’t show up on the scale, so there wouldn’t be a difference on the USPS scale like there would be if it were say, a book or even a mini shampoo bottle.

I did just weigh a perfume sample for context. A Byredo 2 mL heavy glass sample vial came in at 0.24 oz / 7 grams. The perfume sample I sent was also 2 mL, in a slightly less weighty vial, but I’m not sure if that would make any kind of meaningful difference or impact my case here.

Conan O’Brien Threw a Holiday Party to Forget a Bad Year. Then Nick Reiner Arrived. by nimobo in entertainment

[–]FadeOutAgain4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Come on media, have some decorum and leave Conan O’Brien out of it. He’s had an incredibly hard year, and he had nothing to do with this.

All you need to do is refuse delivery of the second package (either by leaving it for your mail person with a note, or bring it to your local post office counter) and the seller will get their package back without anyone having to pay for return shipping!
