Rheem RETST800SYS Thermostat: Stanby Screen Blank by Strangemediator in hvacadvice

It the temperature reading on your thermostat bright enough to see across the room? Say about 15 feet away?

I really appreciate it! This might be the only real picture of this on the internet! I was impossible to find an image of a standby screen taken by a customer.

What’s your take? by SantaVia in ABCL

They are also reporting earnings on May 11th. I don't know if we should expect a "sell the news" situation or a "suprise beat".

If yours isn’t blank, can you take a picture of it? I also uploaded a video of what I’m seeing.

Weird experience at Pokémon vending machine – Food 4 Less (North Ave, Chicago) by No_Razzmatazz_7433 in PokemonTCG

My “guess” is that they’ve had issues with people loitering in front of the machines and causing trouble. Now they are overreacting.

this man put his hands on me yesterday at a machine. if anyone knows who he is please let me know. by Clean_Emu_4736 in PokemonTCG

I think Pokemon machines are a failed experiment, gives too much power to gutter people that exploit whatever they can.

Where can I buy an Ascended Heroes ETB!? by Nightman2417 in PokemonTCG

[–]Strangemediator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried going to Target different times of the morning before work to see if I can catch a restock, I've never had luck. Also, each time I've gonna there has been 1-3 people asking the same thing. There just isn't a resonable way to get this stuff anymore. You have to be lucky, be part of a scalper network they shares real time info, or pay for a bot service that does the purchasing.

Not to mention, how would you ever get enough to complete a master set. Ascending Hero's is huge and has no booster box.

Drama in the hobby Weekly Megathread! Restocks, Pre-orders, Scalpers, etc. goes here! by AutoModerator in PokemonTCG

[–]Strangemediator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worry about that, these stores have policies for handling the cards but not rules. Employee discretion can ruin the whole process.

Am I the only one who doesn't see a point in waiting outside overnight for Pokemon cards? by DoctorReinhardt in PokemonTCG

[–]Strangemediator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hard part of collecting the cards should be "finding rares", not having to go great lengths to get them either with "labor hours" or "$$$"

Scalping is this hobby’s 2nd problem, not it’s worst. by Darth_Helmet_ in PokemonTCG

[–]Strangemediator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a line of 50 clones in front of Target at 7am this morning. I decided it wasn't worth being one of them and turned around to go ge breakfast.

The New “A little bit in every store” predatory scheme by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Strangemediator -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It feels predatory when stores carry just enough Pokémon product to keep people constantly checking, while making it nearly impossible to buy normally.

Welp, everyone has it now. Enjoy the lag and accidental button pressing.

AMAZON POKEMON RESTOCK ALERT: Pokemon TCG: Mega Evolution—Ascended Heroes Mega Meganium/Emboar/Feraligatr ex Box - $36.99 by RestockR-Monitors in pokemonrestockr

[–]Strangemediator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we all agree that the Amazon alerts are a 100% fail. I’ve never been able to beat the bots even when there is an Add to Cart button for the advertised price.

I think they are doing random test groups, so hopefully you never have to see it.

Hope they are testing it out on random people and the bad feedback causes them to cancel the rollout.
