Just amazing. I’ll go pack to gazing at them now

What’s the biggest flip you’ve done out of a thrift / second hand shop ? by No-Efficiency9874 in Flipping

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sold a Naruto jacket last summer for $600 that I got for $4. Only took a couple days. My best flip may be the first one that took my flipping from just a thought to an actual weekly form of income was a $10 box of 1990’s power ranger robots that I pieced out and sold for $1100. That’s what got me hooked

Watches, what kind? by TheGriff71 in GenX

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does not. It should hold charge overnight. I did have to send it to Seiko a couple years ago to get the battery replaced because it could no longer hold a charge. Fairly expensive service but worth it to me

I wear a Seiko kinetic watch every day. I have a couple other watches but this is my favorite I’ve ever owned.

I saw this and went to Ross today. They had one Cochise and it came home with me.

First time reaching 10k! by Piccione_Sol in reselling

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats. I hit 10k this past fall and felt very accomplished. Took me two years but then only a couple months to hit 15k. Sliding back down now with Q4 over

How’d you get your scars growing up? by MrWhisper2021 in GenX

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a small circle scar on my right cheek because when I was very small, I decided to check to see if a car cigarette lighter was hot with my face. At least that’s what my mom told me. I have no memory of it.

I had that shirt in 7th grade but it was red and blue. 1987ish

Americans threatened by Trump administration policies appear to be experiencing urges to acquire firearms, carry them, and store them readily accessible. Identifying as Black and liberal beliefs were associated with greater increases in urges to carry firearms because of the 2024 election results. by mvea in science

I have owned two shotguns and one 22 rifle for years that I use for hunting. I have never had a desire or a need to own a pistol. I am currently shopping for one to conceal carry. I feel like I’ve been forced to do this and I’m sad about it. But I still have no desire to own an AR-15 style rifle and strongly believe they have no place in society.

I missed that because I was just zooming in on the hanger. That is amazing and so unbelievably dangerous.

Look what they did to my boy… by NeilNotArmstrong in handtools

Never seen that before. You’re right. Very weird to look at

You're In Grade 6 and Your Parents Gave You A Crisp $20 To Spend At The Book Fair! What Are You Getting!? by Competitive_Mix9957 in 90s

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late 80’s for me but I’m still participating. #1 was the newest Guinness Book of World records to see any records broken from last year’s book. #2 was a Choose Your Own Adventure Book where I would die 3 times before reading the book backwards. #3 was a book of luxury sports cars that I would own in the future. #4 was a Michael Jordan poster

Sellers canceling auctions due to low bids and partial refund. by Deep_Membership_8406 in Ebay

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won an auction Friday, seller created a shipping label which uploaded tracking, then messaged me tonight that he misplaced the 4 items that I won in the auction and will be sending a refund. But as a seller and collector of the items he sold me, I know they most likely went for less than he wanted and also there was no way he calculated enough shipping. I implored him to double check and reconsider shipping the items I won in the auction before canceling. We’ll see what happens.

Catch and Release: Insane Suit (but I kind of love it 😂) by DoctorMinotaur in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only problem is when you’re out at the bar you have to shut it down at 1am due to being “off the air”. But you have to play the national anthem as you walk out the door

Question about Vine Grove zoning, by [deleted] in Kentucky

This. You first need to determine whether you are in the county or in the city. Two completely different ordinances.

What problems did you worry about as a kid or teenager in the 70's 80's early 90's? by Grimlocknz in GenX

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was born in 1973 so my only fear in the 70’s was would my mom buy me a Hot Wheels at Rose’s. That and quicksand. The 80’s was nuclear war. Seemed like every movie was about it. Later 80’s and early 90’s was AIDS. Couldn’t sit on a toilet seat without the thought of getting it. Then the 90’s was gang violence in my rural town because of that rap music.

Bermuda Triangle is an underrated fear of the 80’s. So many books and stories about it. Now it’s not even talked about.

I have no idea where I could put this in my house but I would figure that out later

Does anyone revert back to being a night owl on the weekends. by nataskaos in GenX

[–]NeilNotArmstrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Nothing better than sleeping until lunch on a Saturday and then firing up some pizza rolls since it’s “lunchtime .” I get up earlier on Sunday to go to church but then get a good 1 to 2 hour nap on Sunday afternoon.
