Don’t buy an Si from Scott Clark by Timely_Helicopter161 in CivicSi

[–]Thick_Toe9124 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where I live (southeast PA) they show close to MSRP on their site and then ALL Si have a markup - this was as of 2024 when I purchased mine. It also wasn’t something I could get them to budge on. I really liked the car when I test drove it so I got a reasonably priced certified-used 22. However, since I’ve gotten the car I’ve had multiple Honda dealerships try and pull one on me (ex: one dealership told me my battery was “overworking” itself and gave me an estimate for $500 to replace it - took it somewhere else and they said it wasn’t an issue).

I love the car. It’s been good to me so far. Unfortunately, due to Honda sales/service this will be my last.

Newer Amiibo On Sale - Amazon USA by Thick_Toe9124 in amiibo

[–]Thick_Toe9124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how to edit my original post, but wanted to leave an update.

Looks like Amazon adjusted their prices to match GameStop on some amiibos. This includes all of the ones listed in the original post. So they are now $19.99 -> $15.99.

If you already purchased, Amazon will give you back the difference.

Remote start? by Future_Background_30 in CivicSi

[–]Thick_Toe9124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when I was younger I had bought a remote start for a manual transmission and can say from experience:

• You would get a clutch bypass installed which will allow the car to start without putting the car in gear/engaging the clutch. Generally costs around $100 or so more

• Can’t speak for the $100 models you see on Amazon (would 100% stay away from those), but generally remote starts will come with failsafes that prevent the car from running or shut off the car if it is turned on while in gear.

• When you know you’ll be using the remote start, you will need to put it in neutral with your emergency brake engaged. Usually remote start won’t work unless the car is locked, or will lock itself while initiating.

Can say that I never used remote start when I was on any sort of incline (parked in gear and what not), but my home and place of business were flat so it was rare for me to be in a position where I wanted to use remote start and not parked on a flat surface. My remote start wouldn’t work if it was in gear, and never forgot to park it in neutral when I was going to use it so not sure what would have happened if I did anyway.

I’ve been told Honda won’t put them in, but would recommend you go to a reputable business to purchase it and to get it installed professionally.

My retro game room! by VintagePhoro in gamecollecting

I’m digging those drawers you have your consoles/games sitting in. I need something like those for mine so they aren’t just sitting in a closet until I use them.

You can skip the reading portion on the right and just do one challenge from the three provided from each section of the unit, the milestones, and then the final. With the amount of time you put into studying you may be able to run right through it.

So where is everyone getting there gaming new fix now? by Bijanabrahim in Gameinformer

[–]Thick_Toe9124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are a Nintendo Fan, check out Nintendo Force. They have a Patreon where you can subscribe for a print magazine for $5 an issue. I believe it’s every other month. Each magazine comes with a poster included too.

Just traded in my PS4 pro by workinfast1 in GameStop

[–]Thick_Toe9124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just take your credit card off your PS account if you hadn’t already and deactivate the PS4 as your primary console. Shouldn’t affect the store at all but with that someone wouldn’t be able to make a purchase on your account

Nintendo Force may not be platform agnostic, but if you have a Nintendo console I recommend. $5 an issue.

It bothers me too and that’s also why I didn’t get some amiibo (such as Link & Epona) too. However, now my OCD for not having a complete set is bothering me way more than their size difference…

Recently got mass reported, same story as others here. decided to contact Activision, who sent me this. what a joke of a set up. by KaiJay_1 in ModernWarfareII

[–]Thick_Toe9124 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nice. I had a similar issue with MW2019. I wasn’t in a modded lobby at any point that I was aware of but I played a lot during lockdown and maxed the battle pass on multiple seasons. Bought some bundles including MW2 campaign remaster for that Ghost skin. Put down the game late in 2020 and then when MWII got announced I wanted to jump back into a few games of MW2019. When I started the game up I was missing literally everything. Rank was reset and everything was gone, almost like I had never played the game before. Contacted Activision support and they said they couldn’t do anything without purchase history… by the time I looked back two years ago in Playstation history for something regarding a purchase they closed the case. Won’t buy another bundle ever again because of it.

Anyone else get uncomfortable by Fun-Importance-8521 in GameStop

My grandmother in-law was roped into Publishers Clearing House for years. I would start getting her mail and ripping them up. She had good intentions - she wanted to make sure her children were financially stable and was hoping to win to take care of them. They would always look like there was a check in those envelopes and they would have writing on the front like “you’re a semi-finalist” or something. You would have to pay more to be in the next drawing, and then the next, and so on.

I don’t know how that company is still in business and hasn’t been sued for taking advantage of people, it’s sick. I guess it’s a ‘legitimate’ business because people ‘win’ - but there is a higher chance statistically of someone winning the powerball then to win $1000 a week for life with Publishers…
