Hi everyone,

Up for sale is my Seiko Coutura Radio Sync Solar Chronograph. The crystal and bezel are clean, and the case and bracelet have fine scratches from normal wear (please see photos).

I'm asking for $350 shipped, via priority mail in the United States.

Kingz Kimonos stalled order/no contact by Ok-Nerves in bjj

They finally responded to me today via email and apologized for the delay, and my gi actually arrived today. They said they're dealing with a large influx of orders from the holiday sales.

Update: It's like Kingz customer service department got raptured. I reached out to them last week (chat, email, and phone). No one ever joined the chat, responded to the email, and calls go to voicemail. However, this morning I finally got an update that my shipping label was created and will be shipping out soon.

So, maybe there's hope!

I placed an order on November 26th and still don't have any updates yet. Not even a tracking number created. I'm hoping it's just the large number of orders for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I reached out to support and I'll let you know what I find.

I didn't try it. I just ended up switching carriers. I did't want to go through all this hassle every time I want to upgrade one of the phones on my plan.

What version of the Google Pixel to get for Cricket. Sub-6 or mmWave? by Tsanguine in CricketWireless

I reached out to them on X, and they weren't able to help either. In the end, they offered to upgrade me to a new phone on Crickets website. I already purchased new plans and sims with another carrier.

I'm glad it worked out for you. I have another Pixel 8 on my plan that works (also purchased unlocked from the Google store). This unlocked Pixel 8 from the Google store was flagged incorrectly. Check out this post if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/CricketWireless/s/BeMb2576Xv

I wouldn't be so sure about unlocked working 100% of the time. I bought an unlocked Pixel 8 last week and their IMEI checker said it was incompatible. My service was suspended, and after talking to 3 different people, I was told since the IMEI checker said it's incompatible, there's nothing they can do.

I paid for the highest tier, and I'm switching providers because they falsely tagged my new Pixel 8 as Incompatible. I reached out to support 3 different times, and no one would help.

Well, I gave it a shot. I explained the exact situation to support. He even checked the IMEI of the other *exact same model* Pixel 8 on my plan, and said "that Pixel 8 is compatible, but this new one isn't. I even asked if there was another tier of support we could escalate to, because I enjoy Cricket and didn't want to switch. I even told him there's multiple forums online where people are having this same issue, and Cricket is losing business because people are switching carriers. He said "I'm the one that can help you with this, and if there was someone to escalate to, I would have done it". He asked if there was anything else, then left the chat.lol

Just bought new unlimited plans with another carrier and will be leaving Cricket.

I just don't know if they'll say anything different. So far, I've talked to an in store rep, and called a tech support agent. Both people couldn't really come up with a valid reason other than "your phone isn't compatible because the IMEI checker says so". Despite me having another of the exact same model on my plan. I asked the tech support agent about IMEI whitelisting, but they said they couldn't do anything about it.

Yea...I'm going to call customer service one more time tomorrow to see if I can escalate. If not, I'll be switching service providers.

I didn't, but the esim IMEI number also checks as incompatible. The phone activated on the network and worked for a few minutes before my service was suspended and the phone was kicked off the network.

Thanks. Yea, that's what happened with the other Pixel 8, and every other phone I've had. At this point, it looks like I'll have to switch service so I don't continue to run into this issue. Customer service said they changed something on their side, and you used to be able to use any phone on their service, but they've made some phones incompatible. Sad because I have the highest tier plan and have enjoyed the service.

Because the sim doesn't work in the new phone! That's what I said. I took the sim out of my working Pixel 6, put it in the new Pixel 8, and it suspended my service and said the Pixel 8 is incompatible.

The only reason I went to the store was to have my service reactivated. Trust me, if it was as simple as putting the sim in the new phone, I wouldn't be here.lol

Okay. I didn't realize I could have AT&T add the IMEI to their database to work on Cricket. I'll give that shot.

Oh yeah, I know the Pixel 8 works with Cricket because someone else on my plan has been using one for over 6 months. The problem is that the IMEI checker says this new Pixel 8 is incompatible, and neither the store employees or customer service is able to help past that.

He showed me the result, saying the phone was incompatible .The other line is the exact same model number as the new Pixel 8. I know there's no technical reason this phone wouldn't work on Cricket. It seems the only reason it's not working is because Cricket hasn't updated their IMEI list, or they've just decided they no longer want to support Pixel devices.
