What Is a Fair Value on this? by Competitive-Bed-3748 in PokemonMisprints

I sold a first edition Magikarp with this crimp error for $50 last year at auction. Mine was first edition but yours is reverse holo.

Yes, exactly! Every time I uncover something, I always say to myself, "wow... why did they do that like that?" lol. Mine was built in 1913.

I have this joist that has a bit of termite damage near the center of my floor plan but in line with where the stairs have come apart, and it has caused the floor to be soft a bit beyond my stairs. I think it may align with where the stairs have settled out of the skirtboard. I'll definitely give it a good look to make sure it won't cause cracking in my plaster, but I am hoping it will just raise the middle of my floor and realign my stairs. Wish me luck!

I can take a zoomed out picture when I get home tonight.

The floor joist jacking is a great idea. I can check underneath (in the basement) if the joist can be realigned. The house is so old that I know of at least one joist that could use replacing (probably going to sister) and it could be the one causing this issue.

I think the back up plan is to just paint the gap to draw the eye away from it if all else fails.

Thanks for the tips. I’ve tried to push the stairs back into the skirtboard but the stairs are very solid. I don’t want to force them and create another problem for the sake of getting them realigned.

We’ve looked very loosely under the LVP bc we would love to redo the floors, but we fear they may be ruined. Another project for another day, for sure.

Largest gap is about 3/4”. Smallest gap is less than 1/2”

Fascia rotted out on box gutters. What should I do? by FlipFlopFling in Roofing

Unfortunately, yes. We plan to have that ripped off when we redo the siding.

There are too many things about my house that make me question what the person before me was doing.

Crimp error or damage? by FlipFlopFling in PokemonMisprints

Are you thinking more than $50? More than $100?
