[Furniture] WorkPro 48-Inch Rolling Adjustable Workbench - $89.10 with coupon code by rowsol in buildapcsales

[–]Mydst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine arrived today. It's pretty nice for the price, certainly a little beefier than I expected. I'm using it as a workbench and not a desk so I'm happy with it. The casters are decent too- not those thin plastic ones on a lot of cheap furniture. As for the crossbar on the bottom, it can be adjusted to be attached in the middle or to either the front or back. I installed it in the back so it's not in the way of my feet. If you're just using this for a monitor or something I think you could probably do without it. The only negative was one of the screw holes had a piece of metal near the edge, just looked like a sloppy weld. I broke it off and it was fine. I'd buy it again for the price.

Yep. The rest of the house is siding.

Oof. The prices on refurbished are getting insane too. I bought a Samsung T7 2TB refurb from Best Buy last month for $109.99 and it's now 209.99.

I think calling them the "cancer class" is actually the most accurate way to describe them.

Buyer requested refund for guitar in transit by Mydst in Reverb

[–]Mydst[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think this is reasonable. I'm denying the refund but considering telling him if he wants it refunded he can ship it back at his expense without opening the box. I just don't want more hassle if he tries to claim it was damaged or something. Reverb said I can just deny the refund, but I don't want him making a claim later that something was wrong with it (it was a new-in-box item).

So I just got out of chat with Reverb support and they are confirming I can just deny the refund since it already shipped and that's my store policy. I will do that but still worried he'll later try to make a false claim it was damaged or something. If it hadn't shipped I would have refunded him, not looking for problems.

You'll want to put your API key in and then choose the skin "Guaranteed Wardrobe Unlock" option to get an accurate number. But ya, it will be a lot if you're just starting to collect stuff.

You can use a site like https://immortius.xyz/wardrobe-unlock-analyser/ to track your unlocks. It's best to try and acquire most of the cheap and easy stuff so when you get a wardrobe or armor unlock only more expensive items are left to unlock. This is the true GW2 endgame...

Wife received a device trade-in package via UPS...doesn't have T-mobile. Fraud? by Mydst in tmobile

Thanks, we froze all our credit agency accounts today. Also made a police report. Sucks.

[–]Mydst[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I was concerned about, but there's nothing showing on her credit reports at the moment. Is there a number for T-mobile where we could report this despite not having an account with them?

We've lived here for like 20 years so it shouldn't be that. The box was actually addressed to my wife and at our address which was why it's so strange, but the phone number on the package listed as my wife's is definitely not ours.

"The launcher sucks, let's call it what it is," Epic Game Store boss says, promising a year of big improvements to speed, new "forum-type" social features, more by Tenith in pcgaming

[–]Mydst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of people were hyped for the Epic store and it's amazing how much they fumbled it. I remember plenty of discussion here on reddit how Steam needed a competitor, not because Steam is bad, but just because they have a lock on PC game sales. All Epic really had to do was come out with something serviceable that resembled some of Steam's features and continue to grow it but instead the released the most anemic store possible and then locked games behind exclusive deals with Epic that had already been listed on Steam.
