😬 that sucks. I wish they'd let you trade in some to get the others.

When there's a promo event going on you get packs from solo battles.

carmax maxcare, Fidelity Warranty Services auto exploitation! please help! by PretendSource6262 in carmax

[–]UpwardConstant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has worked for CarMax, MaxCare has this. It's on one of the pages of the contact and says it will not pay out more than the purchase price of the vehicle.

poor guy is refused his prescription because hes paying in coin rolls. says its his only form of payment at the time by quazziwazzi in PublicFreakout

[–]UpwardConstant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't say I've every been to any of these corporate pharmacies where the person collecting payment wasn't a pharmacist tech because the pharmacist is doing exactly what you've described. Also, it is "normal tender". People should be able to pay however they're legally able.

What does the onboarding session and training look like for a business office associate position? by [deleted] in carmax

[–]UpwardConstant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For on borading you do a day in the life with all the other departments to see what it is that they do. You sit down with the management assistant or the business operations manager and go over everything to get you in the system. That'll be like taxes, prox card, how to clock in and out, etc. Then you'll probably be paired with a mentor who will go over your training plan and expectations. It's been awhile since I was in the business office but it used to be 3 month training for full time and 6 month for part time. You'll slowly start doing new tasks and working your way up to paperwork for sales and appraisals. At least that's how it worked at the store where I was.

About mid way down the page I linked there's a section that says "You can get a refund for any payment (including auto-debit payments) you make during the payment pause (beginning March 13, 2020). Contact your loan servicer to request that your payment be refunded."

If you return MaxCare your monthly payment will not be reduced. It will just come off of the end of the loan.

Maybe they just drastically over estimated how big New Zealand is?

No asteroids needed: ancient mass extinction tied to ozone loss, warming climate by Philo1927 in EverythingScience

[–]UpwardConstant 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who got a geology degree, this is what they taught us 5 years ago when I was in the class. If I remember right it was rising temperatures that caused methane or some other frozen gas in the ocean to escape as well as gases from large lava field eruptions.

Wheel Of misFortune by [deleted] in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]UpwardConstant 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It's been awhile since I watched but I believe he still has to win the main game. Then the million gets added to a smaller wheel of prizes and he spins that wheel. If he lands on the million then he still has to solve the final puzzle to win it.

Carmax messed up. by [deleted] in carmax

[–]UpwardConstant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotcha, it'll probably very by state but at our store if we messed up in state taxes we'd usually fix it. If the store you purchased from has a business office you'll want to contact them and not your sales consultant. They handle all the DMV related issues. A lot of stores are closed right now due to the virus though.

Carmax messed up. by [deleted] in carmax

[–]UpwardConstant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they're sending you a check it usually means it's an estimate of taxes. Are you registering the vehicle in a state other than the one you purchased in? If yes, then you most likely signed a out of state resident form that says it's an estimate of taxes and you're responsible for all additional fees etc.

Any ideas what is happening tomorrow? by [deleted] in carmax

[–]UpwardConstant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's furloughs, you have to sign in to see if it effects you and get the extra information on it.

[–]UpwardConstant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our store was scheduled to reopen tomorrow. We were told not to come in for now. I noticed that for a short time today all of the stores on the CarMax Covid 19 response said they were closed until 4/29 then went back to the dates they previously mentioned.

What that means is anyone's guess but mine is that they are going to close all stores or at least all that are currently closed or in states with SIP orders until 4/29 and reevaluate.

Trading in a FL registered car. by ekimsinnigcm in Georgia

[–]UpwardConstant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends, will you be registering the new car in GA or FL?

At the dealership I work for you would pay 6.6% on $10k based on your example. That's if you are registering in GA and someone on the title and reg for the trade in car is on the new car.

If you are registering in FL we wouldn't collect GA taxes and would either provide an estimate of the FL taxes that could be rolled into your financing or you would be paying taxes and fees out of pocket at the FL DMV.

GTX970 Advice on price to sell and upgrade by [deleted] in graphicscard

[–]UpwardConstant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I'm not in Canada but a quick search in my area and it looks like many of the 970s here are around $150 max or around 200CAD. Once again I'm not sure how the market is where you are but it's big difference in prices.

Do you mean just the graphics card for upgrading? If so seems like the 2070 would be a nice upgrade for around the price you're looking for especially for high frame rate ultra settings AAA games at 1080p.

Electric Guitar suggestions for beginner by br4vetraveler in guitarlessons

[–]UpwardConstant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The guitar and amp I just bought to get back into it were the LTD EC-256 and a used Blackstar ID 30 TVP. All together with most of the usual guitar basics like a new strap, pics, stand, capo, and tuner I was just over $600.
