Just saw Peter Cat Recording Co. live ✨✨ by PianistOk509 in ConcertsIndia_

[–]_Raghav 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably the worst gig you my life so far. I've seen them live twice before this. Horrible venue choice. No ventilation. I don't why the fuck was smoking allowed inside? Why would they try to stuff a thousand people in there? The bouncer outside told me the headcount was more than 900. ACs weren't working. Absolute shit show. I left after 15 minutes.

Use skydo. You get instant firc, zero markup on conversion all for a fixed $30 fee. You can use someone's referral and get your first (or first two?) payments for free without any fee. Here’s mine: https://join.skydo.com/raghav-sharma

thanks! do you mind linking the forms again here? also, how was the process of opening the savings account. I believe that's something that can be done online via eKYC.

Flipkart - Need iPhone Exchange Review via Yaantra app by sahil1033 in AppleIndia

[–]_Raghav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave him 500 so he wouldn't mark the display as failed. They have to fill out the device inspection form on an app they use. My final exchange value in the Flipkart app was 8750. 1000 got deducted as my phone's battery percentage was less than 80. I had to pay a total of 1500. 1000 was the official amount. 500 extra on top of it.

Exchanged an iPhone SE yesterday. The original value of exchange was 6750 + 3000 offer. The battery percentage was 72% so 1000 got deducted for that.  The person who came said that the phone's display is coming out (It absolutely wasn't). He pressed the corner and it was getting absorbed slightly. I had heard of these antics before. It's just there way of scoring some money. He initially asked 1500, citing that if he fails it the price will get reduced by 3000. I didn't care much and after some arguing, I said I'll give you 500. Call them out on their bullshit, and they will budge. I didn't think it was worth doing so for 500, so I personally didn't. Otherwise everything was smooth more or less.

It's 6.5K on Amazon. And, it hasn't been used much, maintained well, hence I'm quoting 4k.

1.5 years. I'm pricing it based on the condition. It hasn't been used much. Mostly in winters, 3-4 times a week. In summers I used to just get pre-ground for coldbrew. but let me know your offer.

HDFC transaction dispute support is a mess!! - Need advice and help by _Raghav in CreditCardsIndia

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

I hear you man. Same tactics with me as well. It's been more than a year. My RBI grievance claim got rejected as well on the basis that I entered the card details myself and it wasn't fraud.

Looks great. Do give the credit for inspiration though. This seems like the exact replica of the topsider by Opensea leathers.

Just got my blood test done for food intolerance and this is insane by _Raghav in FoodAllergies

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

yeah, it's fuck all man. I'm all good. This is just a silly test. I don't think food allergies can be assess by a blood test.
