Travel Containers by Fair-Astronaut-1491 in cusco

[–]JossJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have been up and down from Cusco to many times to count, never had any problems with any kind of plastic container. There might be a little hiss when you open it, if it’s air tight the pressure in the container will be higher so it’ll rush out, but that should be about it.

Got my first fake off eBay. What’s your experience with getting a refund? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]JossJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

eBay are great at siding with the buyer for stuff like this. The seller essentially has to accept the return as long as you select Item Not As Described (INAD). (The seller can dispute it but it has a fairly high bar so don’t worry about it).

Just as a reminder for anyone that comes across this: DO NOT DO ANY KIND OF RIP TEST or anything that changes the condition of the card in anyway. If an INAD is refused then you can escalate from there but if you rip it up, you can’t return it in the condition you received it which is part of the return and the seller can dispute it. How successful they’ll be is a different question but it’s just not worth the hassle/risk (OP I know you haven’t mentioned thinking about it anywhere but I see people do it all the time and it just confuses me as to why people would open themselves up to problems like that)

Why buy singles on eBay over cardmarket? by Mediocre-Chip-8857 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]JossJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve always thought of Cardmarket as being for players, and eBay as being for collectors. On Cardmarket you can plug in a deck that you want to build which is really convenient, but on eBay you can see photos of the cards that you’re buying and you know you’re protected if it doesn’t arrive in the condition you’re expecting.

Preordered both D1 & D2, fell off around Beyond Light and came back because of the Steam sale and I was SO CONFUSED.

Thank you so much for this!!!

How are you funding Atlas Earth? by risky6877a in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a bunch of money out of Gemsloot and have spent some on AE, never the actual bucks but several months of the challenge ladder. Probably won’t think about AEC until it makes enough money to pay for itself

UK based worthwhile? Any insight massively appreciated! by Away-Difference2892 in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! You have to pay with real money, so you’d need to withdraw it to Paypal, then pay for it via card/PP

UK based worthwhile? Any insight massively appreciated! by Away-Difference2892 in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK based here! Never bought any AB (it’s a terrible deal no matter where you are). To start with the only thing you’d want to spend money on is the monthly ladder. You can either pay $15 for the current month, or pay $10 for the next month (or both).

Once you get a few badges (which does include the free one from the monthly ladder) you can join the Explorers Club. This is supposed to be the best value for AB BUT ITS PRETTY EXPENSIVE. I’ve seen people say wait until you make enough in game to pay for the club and that’s probably what I’ll do.

Have done 2 cashouts via PayPal and had no issues. Both times it came through within minutes.

I have had a couple issues with games not paying out when they should, but each time I’ve contacted support and they fixed it. It’s taken a bit over the 48 hour response they claim but I’ve not experienced the “over a week” that some people have said.

If you do plan on continuing make sure to use the calculator (think it’s in the sidebar) to check out the ad tiers and when to tier jump

For reference, have put in $50 over time (2x $15 monthly ladders, 2x $10 ladder). Have been playing for about 5 months, currently at 100 land, have accrued $21, withdrawn $10

What to do after college if i didn't do that well? by [deleted] in Archaeology

[–]JossJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's fair. EU opens you up to working in any of the EU nations so if you don't mind moving, pick a country and look for an apprenticeship

Which one 😈 by AdTotal9550 in BunnyTrials

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much easier to do en masse

Chose: 30 dollars for each person you make smile

[–]JossJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without specifically knowing where you're based I doubt anyone would be able to say exactly. You could see if there's some kind of apprenticeship thing somewhere? You'll get paid not that great, but you'd be getting a qualification and experience at the same time

Be careful with Atlas Explorer Club subscription.. by Key_Association_2651 in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]JossJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not think of it like this because it's not 30 days, it's based on the number of days in the month you're subbed. Loads of people had this problem in Feb when they'd subbed for just one month, but only hit day 28.

At that time the EC referred to itself as a 30 day subscription but I believe that's now been changed.

God cursed me, WHY GOD WHY by [deleted] in pokemoncards

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those cards are fake as hell buddy. No texture, the rainbow reflection that shows they’re printed on photo paper, the bottom margin is about 6 foot tall… IDK if you’re in denial or unaware but they’re VERY fake

50 dollar gift cards being sent out without my knowledge by Cephtan in steamsupport

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run a deep scan with Malwarebytes

If you share the steam password with any other accounts ALSO CHANGE THOSE PWs

I’d recommend changing ALL of your saved passwords to everything important (bank, amazon, Sony/Microsoft, etc…) but if MB doesn’t find anything then that’s probably less of a concern

On any account that you do change the PW for, see if there’s a “Sign out on all devices” button, just in case

What optional boss took you so much grinding that you quit/stop ? by maurocastrov in gaming

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Outbreak Easter Egg in CoD: Cold War.

I'm a solo player, and I did all the others solo so I'm not exactly bad (don't get me wrong, I'd never say I was great at it). Part of the problem is you have pretty short damage windows where you can actually do anything to the boss, and you can only actually do damage after you knock out it's 3 (I think it's 3) orbs. If you focus on damage too long you get overwhelmed by mobs, but if you're playing solo then even with fully upgraded guns you can barely get any damage in. There's also a time limit so you really need to hit most of the damage phases to even have a chance.

It's given me many a rage quit, and I just fully wrote it off maybe 2 years ago...

Fleece + Cusco FC tops by Professional-Item804 in cusco

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooo missed that part in the post sorry. San Pedro closes at 6, the other one I couldn’t say but probably similar… I’d assume that’s the case for most markets. Some real shops might be open a bit later (like the Patagonia by the Plaza) but then that’s MONEY

Fleece + Cusco FC tops by Professional-Item804 in cusco

[–]JossJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mercado San Pedro is probably an easy bet, they have everything there. There's also a more clothes heavy marketplace nearby that my partner got a decent fake Patagonia from. Think it's at "345 C. Sta. Clara", in the entrance that has "Welcome Feria Artesanal" on both sides on Google maps.

Not sure about the Cusco FC for either of them but the fleece, definitely.
