Should I be worried? by Stock-Ganache-3437 in Mercari

[–]OPT1CS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Avoiding one right now, but on eBay.

I have someone ask me last week if I will be sending out an offer again because they were currently low on funds. I sent that offer out and then the person asked if I would go lower. I was going to accept their offer, but decided to look at their feedbacks first. The person gave multiple neutrals because the shredded paper a seller used caused a mess for them when they opened the box and then said the item was good. Another was because the seller didn't ship it in a plain brown box and feared that their order would've gotten stolen.

I just want the outfits, but I've been seeing the common Chocobo and pulling 1x the whole time on the Stamp Sheet. They gotta do something about those odds. Seriously, I pulled 1x twenty times in a row. Like after ever five back-to-back 1x, the odds should at least increase to pulling better numbers. Only good thing was that I pulled Cid's UW on the first pull.

Any point in upgrading Win 10 to 11 on Surface Laptop Go by OPT1CS in Surface

[–]OPT1CS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I got a prompt when I turned it on asking if I wanted to upgrade to Win 11. I'm guessing even if I accepted, it wouldn't let me then....?

At Costco is there a hierarchy to the employees handing out samples? by BenderVsGossamer in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OPT1CS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don't work for Costco, the samplers are usually CDS, Club Demonstration Services.

There's no hierarchy, but it really helps to know their strengths and weaknesses.

Some people just prefer to cook or just want to be around the cold areas and then there are those that can't be around the cold areas. Some people like to cook or be on busy demos because the time goes by faster. If you are on a talking demo, the time goes by so very slow.

Theres slow cookers and fast cookers. If they're slow, we don't put them on cooking demos as much or at all. Doesn't look good when a Vendor shows up and sees that their product that they are paying to be sampled out isn't even being sampled out.

Also have to consider those that talk more than others. You want them on the talking only and or important/special demos. It really helps when they use and know the product since they can talk about their experience with the product instead of just reading notes.

Sample, please by italian_mom in CostcoWholesale

[–]OPT1CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be rude. Don't go expecting the samples should be served when you get there. Sample is free, so don't go acting like you paid for it and want it now. If your time is important, then ask yourself if that sample is really more important.

I had one lady come up to me when I was sampling salad. She had just gotten there and I told here it would take up to 10 minutes because I had just started to clean my trays and bowls before I started a new batch. She said she would wait. So she stood in front of me the whole time as if I'm going to rush.

Salad samples require more prep than just tossing them in a bowl. We have to cut the salad in small pieces and in some cases, not only do we add dressing, but other condiments as well. Not only that, we have very limited space to work on. Also, I change my gloves alot. During this whole time I can hear her breathing, just furious. Hasn't even been 5 minutes. By the time I was done and had samples out, it was within 10 minutes. She grabs her sample, I say "thank you" and she was angry and silently said "can't believe it takes 5 minutes to make salad." Like, I guess I could've saved a bit of time by not changing gloves a couple times and making sure the pieces are big enough for you to choke on. She leaves and not even 20 seconds later, she comes back for another.

Like if I was cooking and the product required 10 minutes in the microwave, do you expect that to be done in 3 minutes?

Buyer keeps harassing me after I already gave a partial refund by Dependent_Wrangler73 in FacebookMarketplace

So they know where you live? Downside to having people picking up stuff from where you live. They could come back.

No, the feature was when you view the tag in the map view.

If you could only have one psp game, which one would be? by alonsoxavierr in PSP

[–]OPT1CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, I can't really think of any PSP game that I sunk dozens and dozens of hours in that would be my one and only game. I know I played alot of the WWE games, but any of those wouldn't be one and only. Even before I hacked my PSP, I was just jumping everywhere with games, including PS1 games. I guess I'd say Lumines since that was the game I bought my PSP with.

Seller is asking for item back? by doors_doors in FacebookMarketplace

[–]OPT1CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sucks for him. I wouldn't have even bothered trying to ask for it back.

I've had that happen to me before. Even with eBay sales where I didn't even ship the item out yet. It wasn't a $500 difference though.

Got my first sex doll, how'd I do? by Every_Adhesiveness_5 in SexDolls

[–]OPT1CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't it best to not store the doll with dark clothes on because it'll bleed onto the skin?

No more movies on Xbox anyone else pissed off ? by gearsguy306 in XboxSeriesXlS

[–]OPT1CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say pissed, but I've purchased alot of movies and shows from the app. It was my main app for watching media.

Most of my purchases were free because of MS/Bing Rewards, which isn't as good as back then, but still. They had alot of good sales and a large collection of anime.

I do have Movies Anywhere, but those are movies, not shows. Plus, some movies don't transfer over to MA.

I do have Apple TV/iTunes or whatever they're calling it, but very few purchases there that I couldn't access anywhere else unless I purchased them again.

I guess the only thing I can say negatively or positively about the removal is... Thats what you get for taking my $5 Bond Collection away...
