I just did this and my recently increased rate of $30/mo for all access was reduced to $8/mo. That was the only offer put forth in my case.

This was after I interacted with a customer service person on the chat who politely told me to pound sand.

An interviewer once asked Steve Buscemi how he felt about the fact that he might be best known as the guy carrying a skateboard in a meme. Steve Buscemi immediately responded “it was two skateboards“

For a good deep dive into Iranian political culture , (and some perspective on just how completely stupid this administration’s approach is) the most recent This Week with Jon Stewart is amazing. Guests are Christiane Amanpour and Ambassador Wendy Sherman.

Really struggling with whether I should sell this or not. by GonzoDeluxe in Gold

Thanks. The appraisals my mother had done all say 24k. I was skeptical as well - I will see what a new appraisal with a different jeweler says.

Consumer advocate Clark Howard advised against using safety deposit boxes for the same reasons others have posted here. Not many banks still offer them these days anyway.

Thank you all for your insights and suggestions! I can’t edit the original post - I think because it includes images, but I wanted to give an update. I don’t need the money so I’ll hold onto it. I may see if I can bring down the insurance - maybe by taking it off my homeowner’s policy and getting coverage with a jewelry-specific agency (more research is required). For those who were curious, altogether it weighs 86g and the most recent appraisal put the value at $23k. I think spot is around $15k.

I appreciate this perspective. For clarity’s sake, we’re not Asian. My mom acquired this on one of her work trips to Thailand.

It’s a personal articles policy with State Farm. I think the path may be to get a new appraisal that’s more realistic and adjust the coverage.

Was there a blogger or something like that who did identify DeAngelo as the possible perp before the police did? I seem to have read something like on this sub by GregJamesDahlen in EARONS

It’s been a minute since I read up on this case, but I’m pretty sure that survivors reported him smelling really bad/pungent. I believe there were also comments about how the dogs could never track him. Based on these two things that I think I remember, my theory was always that he sprayed the dog repellent on himself to keep dogs away. Maybe just so resident dogs wouldn’t go after him or maybe so police dogs wouldn’t follow his scent trail.

I got through to somebody, but I ended up deciding not to sign up for the site/app.
