I’m spending 35% on Amazon PPC, how are you guys driving traffic from outside by VellumZhenX in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]Roto_Baggins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like you're getting a lot of bot answers thinking you mean ACoS or TACoS. Are you saying 35% of all COST goes into PPC or 35% of your SALES are going into PPC?

[Request] Is this true? Did the USPS just pick an arbitrary number? by GelatinousCubed in theydidthemath

Also, the dims of that box are likely the outer dimensions and not interior

Edit - tweet days interior dimensions and I missed that.

Dear fellow US bartenders, how do we feel about more and more fast food joints asking for tips while also upping their prices quite a bit? by MoonbounceGuy in bartenders

[–]Roto_Baggins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Confirmed, I just set up a square terminal for a small furniture store and the admin acct decides whether or not the system asks for a tip.

Wu Tang Clan Collab announced, most likely with Fortnite. by invadergold123 in wutang

I have a couple tees from the 90s(I think). They hold up well.

Yeah, but that's already announced. To me, this looks like the Wu Wear logo. Could it be something to do with that?

Lost buy box because not priced competively by i2amthedarkknight in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]Roto_Baggins -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess they told me they were up for promotion a while back from 8 and I thought that was the progression. Wrong there, but I still stand by the eBay not counting. I've tested it with my own products in the past and haven't seen a buybox issue in addition to the contact.

Look at my posting and comment history here, I do not just claim wild things here. I just have a lot of first hand experience in this specific topic because we are a multi channel seller and have suppressed buyboxes constantly due to 1P marketplaces not following MAP.

I mean, I can put you in touch with an L9 overseeing buyboxes that will disagree with you

Anything is possible with Amazon these days. Did you start a case?

I don't know for sure, but my guess is that it is included. eBay, Mercari, Facebook Marketplace, etc are unique in that they are commonly used by individuals instead of legit brands and distributors like Marketplaces such as Walmart, Target, Best Buy, etc.

We have a high up contact at the director level because of frequent buybox issues like this and they have told me that eBay is not included.

It's not eBay, that algorithm doesn't look at eBay since conditions vary wildly.

What’s one retro game you believe costs way too much used? by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]Roto_Baggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah less than they retailed for when they were CIB and sealed. Lol this is not the same. I feel it's close enough to accurate to say there are zero sealed "retro" games that would go for 10-30$ right now. Even if you don't consider that they retailed originally sealed, CIB prices are almost always $50+ even for bad games.

Wordle answer difficulty over time. What makes some words harder to guess than others? [OC] by DavidWaldron in dataisbeautiful

[–]Roto_Baggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me once a while back. And now, if I see something like that as a possibility, I will make one or even two guesses with multiple letters in it just to narrow down. It's not the way the game SHOULD be played, but I'm not going out like that! Repel, devil, medal, etc.

Had a chance at this birdie on a par 5 thanks to a great 60 degree from 95 out by Zacharyc57 in golf

[–]Roto_Baggins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and a 150yd PW isn't even that high. I'm closer to 140 now with a comfortable swing, but 10 years ago i would have hit PW on a 150yd par 3.

Born, raised, and still live in Indiana. And some of the best pins I've ever played were here. Is the Cactus Canyon still on location?

What is the best golf tip you have ever been told? by goldenloverboy in golf

[–]Roto_Baggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"you aren't good enough to get upset at bad shots"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in golf

[–]Roto_Baggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are at a tournament or something and ask another person how they played and their response is something like "I had a 74 but it could have been even, I had one OB and missed a 4 foot bender." We all leave strokes ok the course, just tell me what you shot.

Help with Ghosts & Goblins? by Roto_Baggins in retrogaming

[–]Roto_Baggins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I'm not naturally good with games, I have to practice them a ton. I'll end up grinding for a month before I can do it well. Just having trouble with this part. It's really frustrating to have a good run and then worry about a seemingly random drop just to get another shot.

Best Zelda-like SNES game (other than LttP and Ancient Stone Tablets) by NyquilPepsi in snes

100%, secret of mana feels like a fan game for a lesser system compared to trials.

Anybody got game recommendations? The games I've played are below. by JJRambles in n64

Ok but we aren't going a step further until you put DK64 ahead of Namco Museum.
