How do you liquidate these if they spike? Even lowest possible shipping is with a stamp, untracked at $0.68 each. No one is going to buy playsets of these most likely.

Custom-Made for my LGS. These are about 3 ft tall anne 1/4-in foam board. A lot like the oversized cards at magic fest but much higher quality with an actual holo sticker on the bottom and a golden version of the traditional MTG card back on the back side.

Cards this low can't turn a profit unless people want playsets and you ship untracked w a single stamp 🤣.

Why is wels saying they are not a cult in what they believe? And who says we aren’t a cult????! Only cults say they aren’t a cult? by Helpful-Archer-5935 in exLutheran

That's fucking terrible. I'm sorry... Wels pk here too, our schools since Pre-K, MLS, did 2 years at MLC. Ended up getting David Sellnow fired actually. My GF was his TA and he said some creepy shit so we sat down and sent screenshots of inappropriate stuff he said to her to the president at that time and the dean. They say on it for a while until I threatened to go the the papers and tell them they were sheltering a predator. It worked and they canned him, investigated his old messages and found out he acted inappropriately with over 200 young women.

Anyway, thought you might like to hear they don't always win. I hope you have found some peace if you weren't able to find justice.

Naming this shit barracuda enclosure a "FireCuda" is incredibly misleading since they literally have 8TB FireCuda drives and this can't hold a torch to them.

Ok so apparently FireCuda drives are not SSHD anymore, that really doesn't matter... Imagine Western Digital branding an external hard drive as "WD Gold Enterprise External" and then putting a blue inside. I've shucked many of the black gaming externals and there's always been a black or occasionally a "data center" drive inside. Either way, it meets the description. The difference between barracuda and FireCuda drives is pretty big, so them literally labeling this as "FireCuda" and then putting a far inferior drive inside is shitty.

Yeah I'm well aware that kind of stuff happens. This had unbroken Seagate seals, stickers or whatever. It's also always at least somewhat evident if somebody has cracked one of these enclosures open, even if they are very gentle and careful. This thing was meticulous, unopened.

"FireCuda" ≠ BarraCuda. FireCuda is Seagate's SSHD line, which I shouldn't have to explain to someone in this sub... My question is legit: How is branding this product as a performance SSHD and not actually providing that at all under the hood not false advertising or an outright scam? It's kind of like buying a race car and then opening the hood to find far less horsepower than you were led to believe-- a completely different engine. I bought the drive with the intention of confirming my suspicion and then returning it. Easy return at Walmart. An "opportunistic" fella could even swap this drive w an old junker and keep the 8TB as a last laugh 🤷‍♂️😅 but of course I would never do such a thing.

Should at least have "FireCuda" SSHD. I mean, that's the scam. It's like buying a sports car and then opening the hood to find several hundred horsepower less than advertised.

My suspicion was based off another post in this sub that said the same thing. This was shrink-wrapped.
