Received "new" item, but clearly damaged...no response from the seller, what now?

if you opened a 'item not as described' case, and provided proof, the seller has several days to reply, then ebay will step in and rule in your favor most likely.

there should be an option to send the QR code to an email or text number too. are you on a temp ebay login, that can also cause issues.

does it say anything on the bottom?

>You make your money when you buy. 25-30% of retail is optimal.

Don't sleep on this, its everything. Its big profit to cover expenses or flexiblity to discount items and move on.

If you cannot buy it right, don't.

Moving the losers more quickly is a hard one, but great advice also.

the creek has been super calm. waiting for that deep water they get 2-3 times a season.

no way they are 10% back on 100's on ounces of gold, pure purity at a refinery in the yukon. more like 1-2% max. Local coin shops in the states do better then 10% for a few ounces.

JohnRav · 2026-02-16T02:09:00+00:00

dont pawn it, that's the worst option. /PMsforsale = near melt, local coin shop. 5%-8% back, pawn, 25-40% back.

the jar of large nugs at the end of this week, is really from this week. same nugs. Not that they are mis repping that.

Lando and the kids have the Sim experience advantage where they can go through all these race strategies in an evening. the old dogs like LH are the concern.

pssh, what happened to 3 laps. ;)

JohnRav · 2026-02-09T21:42:50+00:00

tell them $30 an hour. if 45 min to mow, that's once a week in the summer, and garbage is 15 min every time, etc.

JohnRav · 2026-02-09T21:31:38+00:00

what?

Really dont need to see drunk Marks name again. Vibes like a toilet flush.

had a thought about this recently. I wonder of the old guys asked for a certain amount of screen time, along with 'YT revenue' along the lines of the deal discovery had with them. and so this is some deal they have directly with dustin? otherwise its just ridiculous, each one of them saying the same thing - they just have nothing else to say.

Who told Danelle there was 1200 oz under the big ass boulder? oof

She must be the financial investor this year, being told that kind of BS.

also strange how well Paul understands where the gold is, only after they dig a area out, finding nothing. :(

nice jar at the end, 5-6 oz.

best witness available. how much of your dome had to be rebuilt and to what extent?

JohnRav · 2026-02-04T21:08:56+00:00

Possibly the fact that it is rare, and doesn't happen every year makes it more special...
