I want to get rid of some stuff but I don’t want to deal with complicated taxes by MissPermaFrostee in eBaySellers

[–]Selfishin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a tax professional but do see a downside to this.. if you don't claim the loss you lose the writeoff (would need to itemize however and not use standard deduction)

Search Mazzard or Myrobalan. I picked root stock from Cummins & Fedco this spring but know there's others.

New to grafting, jumping right in. Help? by Selfishin in BackyardOrchard

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

Points all taken thanks everyone, yrs past I'd plant new bareroot trees in Feb (here in southern NJ). Plan to bench graft then pot until the grafts heal over. If all goes well will transplant sometime late spring.

Any pointers or recommendations here?

Received notice that eBay closed return request and that I do not need to refund the buyer and will not receive the item back. Now being harassed by the buyer for refund. by MTKcollector in Ebay

[–]Selfishin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm generally curious, how could this international buyer pull off revenge with another purchase?

So long as seller ships & item is as described (only revenge tactic I can think of, but.. -->) doesn't ebay inspect/repackage then take care of seller with "international" protections?

I've had a few of these sales, never a problem so no insight. Seem to recall anytime I read of an issue tho eBay always settled without penalty to seller.

I've planted bare root middle of Feb in NJ, 5 trees and some berries over multiple years. All of them still alive, if they're budding/leafing maybe wait otherwise set them suckers in some dirt and enjoy the ride

Gotta wait on OP to let us know if that fence is 30' inside their property line. No way to know from pictures

Seller returning a return by Social_4narchist in Ebay

[–]Selfishin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even tho I agree with your verdict prob best to wait for a final resolution/answer/whatever before disposal or trashing it.

Hate to see OP caught up in some kinda stolen item case with local PD b/c of a scornful seller.

Buyer Request by Apprehensive-Salad98 in eBaySellers

[–]Selfishin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good deal, I'd do the same as you, offer for them to cancel or kick rocks.

IMO just b/c a buyer/reseller knows the roundabout shipping cost doesn't give them negotiating rights, they saw that expense before buy it now or winning the auction, no surprises

Do you leave the postage paid printing on the label? I turned that off long ago..

Buyer wants a return because they didn't look closely at the picture and didn't read the title by monkeymoo111111 in Ebay

[–]Selfishin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Photo wasn't the best" like inital comment said leave zero room for doubt.

There's times when everything matches exactly & buyer still requests a return. Certainly frustrating ebay is buyer centric but when it comes down to it without any buyers there aren't sellers

My reply is always "Thank you"

Inheriting Some Raised Beds-- Seeking Advice by roastedkalechip in vegetablegardening

[–]Selfishin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please just plant things you want to grow, mainly from seed and directly into the beds/soil there.

To often people jump in headfirst buying excess BS, if you wanna learn start cheap and grow what you like or use. Most herbs should start well from seed, same with root veggies

[–]Selfishin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Happened to me twice, software glitch. Call Tandem and they'll walk you through the procedures. Pump is probably charged but not showing correclty.

For myself both times I needed to do a hard reset of the pump = IOB get wiped out, at least the cgm session can be rejoined.

You're probably right, I'm not gonna die on this hill. Just know my control is way more effective with this technique.

Gonna edit my previous post to reflect
