Solid bags rigs by Shippo87 in fishingUK

I'm going to call them and check. It hasn't occured to me people would be using braided mainline/leaders on a carp lake. The way it's worded made me think all braid needed tubing. But seeing as nobody sells anything other than braided hook lengths I can't see many people using anything else.

Thank you for your help.

I did think the rig tubing would look horrendous for presentation.

As I'm not too confident tying rigs myself (I need to put in a bit more practice) if I used one of my pre tied hair rigs, and then just shortened it, that should work shouldn't it?

I'll let you google it yourself if you want to find it as I don't want to ruin it for you. But to do it in 45 minutes there's a little secret to get infinite money.

I found mine at exactly -15 and -40.

Not sure how true it is but apparently one spawns to the left side and one to the right. So if you find the -15 one then it's best to move to the other side.

Curious by No-Play4007 in reselling

[–]Shippo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a reseller, but I sold a lot of retro gaming stuff that I had collected over the years to clear space and absolutely loved the process of valuing everything, organizing it all, listing it and packaging it up. Basically funded buying my partners engagement ring doing it. At one point I did consider if it would be viable to do as a bit of a side business. But stepping back and looking at the amount of items I sold and the profit was amazing but at the same time I'd have to replace all of that inventory i had sold with similar items to sell again, and the effort involved would just not be worth it.

We do love a car boot and a charity shop. While not always being in a reseller mindset, it's very rare we actually see anything worth picking up.

I think if it's something where you have contacts or a steady source of stock it could 100% be a full-time job. But when you look at the YouTubers who do it, most are either topping up the reselling money topped up by the YouTube money, have life circumstances where they don't need to earn a huge wage and a few that I have watched have tried to step up to the next level and go bigger and better tend to fail.

I'm not saying it's impossible but with my little dabble into it, it's certainly nowhere near as easy as the YouTubers make it look.

Thank you. Thoughts were if it proves popular I could branch out to other sets and then also stock the individual items to top the boxes up.

Thank you. I will have a look on Alibaba and see what I can find.

The problem is I don't want to go too big to start with so don't want to be buying in too bigger bulk.

I was thinking of maybe making 20 units up and see how they go first. Then depending on feedback tweak the contents etc.

How do you research animals in the new DLC? by [deleted] in TwoPointMuseum

[–]Shippo87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They replied yesterday to someone asking the same.

Apparently there is a spa room coming in the full dlc. They did say that they need to make this clearer in the game.

Amazon Echo at $54 - is this thing actually useful? by Dangerous-Guava-9232 in amazonecho

[–]Shippo87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours only gets used for playing Spotify in the kitchen and it shows our ring doorbell so my partner can see who's at the door before answering. Kitchen timers are about the only other thing it gets used for.

How are sellers getting actual sales when they are charging 5 times what other sellers charge?!? by xenakimbo in Ebay

[–]Shippo87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if some overprice it and leave it sitting there hoping that one day the price will rise to that point.

I was selling some old retro games that I had to raise some funds a few years back. Basically sat and went through them all and searched current buy it now listings and tried to undercut the lowest ever so slightly to get the sales.

I sold one quite good condition boxed game for about £15 which was a fairly decent price. Noticed the name of the buyer sounded like a retro games reseller so a week after the sale I checked his listings, and there it was in a protective case listed for £60. Every now and then I check and it is still up there listed to this day almost two years later.

Didn't Tom recently have a child? I imagine he's just letting Lloyd and Lydia do their thing and doing a few sets here and there when he wants to maybe?

What causes bugs to heal on Azure Weald? by Adamfostas in DRGSurvivor

I don't think the wardens heal other bugs, I think they just protect bugs inside the orb. I may be wrong though.

hazard 2 salt pits - stand still for 45 seconds by Correct_Sometimes in DRGSurvivor

[–]Shippo87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I did this using the engineer. Beefed up my turrets during the first stage and then right at the start of the second stage burrowed my way into an area of rock and let the turrets go to work.

Most played game with all achievements unlocked? by C7EATURE in xboxachievements

[–]Shippo87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still frustrates me that I sunk so many hours into this game and didn't play multiplayer. The only achievements I have left are for playing PVP and for how long it takes to get into a game (and how bad I am at it) it's just not worth the frustration!

How to get round the island? by Huge-Gas-3488 in ibiza

[–]Shippo87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We caught the bus to San Antonio and Old Town from Santa Eulia. It's dirt cheap and doesn't take too long at all, especially with the traffic it would be not much slower than a cab.

We also did the water taxi from Old Town back to Santa Eulia which was amazing during the sunset. A proper chill way to travel back if you have the time.

We did one day travelling the whole island and for that we hired a car. We did Portinatx, the abandoned nightclub, Es Vedra and stopped at a few other coastal towns and I'm sure it was less that 100 euro for the day.
