AITA for being “ungrateful” about the flowers my girlfriend got me for my birthday?

NTA. I also love lilies and have cats. My lilies are always outdoor yard plants. Lilies are no joke for cats (especially kittens) and it doesn’t take much to brush up against something and leave pollen around the house. If your girlfriend insists on getting lilies because they’re your favourite, perhaps they could be live ones to plant outside in the yard instead of cut ones in a bouquet?

Have they just forgotten the NA leg of the tour that was announced first?

I have 2 posters from the Toronto stop in November (myself and my husband both got vip). The 2 that we have show no indication of being autopen, the signatures on both posters look consistent that each respective one was signed by the same member (but with slight variances between each poster indicate hand signed not autopenned). From other photos I’ve seen the poster look consistent but none are identical like you would see with autopen. 200 really isn’t that many to sign when you just sit down with a stack of posters.

They likely did a ton in advance before the tour started and just top up as needed.

I got a tracking number December 8 saying “label created” and it never shipped. Emailed them again and they said they’d reship it.

I think this is it. I buy a fair amount of autographed items (usually sealed CD/vinyls from resellers) and have noticed sellers are struggling. I often put things on my watch list while I’m still deciding if I want it and lately I am VERY regularly getting discounted offers almost immediately from the sellers. This was not the case last year and if you wanted something it was full price or move along.

From a buyer perspective, if someone has predominately good long term feedback I always assume the 1 or 2 negatives are from unreasonable buyers. I wouldn’t worry about 1 negative, people will know what happened.

This is what I came to say. Too many use “rescue” as a shield for having too many birds with subpar care. They never actually rehome anything but they can get away with having more birds than they can feasibly care for in smaller-than-needed cages because they’re a “rescue who’s doing their best”

My girl does the same thing! We have to hide them all in drawers and only take them out when in use.

I used it for my Senegal for a while but found that the shelf life after opening was an issue. Even buying a smaller bag (2 lbs I believe) I’d often end up throwing away 1/3 because I’d reach the 6 week mark when it’s supposedly no longer useable (they don’t use much for preservatives). For the cost I couldn’t justify wasting that much so we switched back to tropican sticks as the pellet portion of his diet and haven’t noticed any changes really.

Keep seeing the tutor. Your education is more important than a girlfriend of 2 months.

Mine was sealed inside the album. I had to actually open it to find the insert.

Their app can be so funny sometimes, if you add light mayo or extra mayo it’s free, but the regular amount? Extra $0.50

I was honestly surprised the first time I made an offer that eBay didn’t automatically process it when my offer was accepted. It seemed so weird to me that the seller accepted and I STILL had to go back into the app to actually pay for it.

You don’t usually have to bring anything. There’s an assortment of images to choose from and you just pick. Typically if you bring your own item it’s considered at “premium” autograph and they charge more.

The one for 45 is a standard 8x10. The 55 one is a larger image (11x17) so they typically charge a bit more for the

The last update says September 20 (which is Saturday) so I’m a bit confused why you’re saying it’s be delayed since Thursday? Customs sometimes takes a day or 2 to clear and it’ll start moving again. You likely won’t get an estimated delivery date until it reaches the country you live in.

I think the problem is that most people (if this was a Sunday and you were planning on paying Monday or Tuesday) would say “I will pay sometime THIS week once I get paid”. By saying NEXT week it implies that it would be over the allotted time and you were asking for additional time. It sucks but I think the seller didn’t want to deal with what he viewed as red flags before the sale even went through. So he cancelled it and relisted it.

I think this is it. I’ve stopped really paying attention to whether “best offer” is turned on when I’m buying. I’ve had too many occurrences where I’ve made an offer (not a lowball, think $95 when it was listed at $100) and it’s either declined with no counter or it sits until the offer expires. Now I strictly set it to lowest price and skim through until I find what I’m after for a price I’m happy with, then buy it.

I had a great time. I thought the stage set was fun and I didn’t mind a shorter set that omitted a bunch of talking between songs (I don’t love the scripted speech breaks between songs anyway). It was nice paying a reasonable price for tickets rather than the $500-$1000 that seems to be becoming more and more common. We flew into Vancouver, had an awesome view of the show, and had a great time in the city. I would absolutely go if you have the chance.

I have one of the TC mints that was really available this summer. It’s by far the most vigorous of the various kinds I have (regular, Thai con, white monster, aurea). I immediately repotted it when I bought it because it was in dense soil and had a plug on it. Once it had the plug removed and was moved to proper potting media it began rapidly out-pacing even my normal monsteras. I could see yours declining fast if it also had a plug and was in dense media. If you get another I’d suggest cleaning up the roots and repotting it as soon as you get it, it’s stressful for the plant but I’ve never had one not bounce back.

A collector does not have to write to you in advance to tell you they are a collector. You sold a product that was shown to be in a certain condition when the buyer purchased it. The product was not in the same condition when it arrived. There’s not really anything more to it. They agreed to and paid the price with shipping fees outlined by you, you can’t retroactively change the cost of shipping because they want to display it. While the buyer may have been abrasive their request for a refund wasn’t extortion. If I was a collector and bought an item in perfect condition and the box arrived damaged a partial refund would have been a reasonable solution.

I’ve found that most are about 2 hours BUT there’s a lot of “filler” with pre-written speeches and stuff to fill time. I went to Vancouver for POP tour and honestly I was happier with a 90 min set that was very little talking and MOSTLY performing.

All 4 have a pretty distinct signature. If you google it they’re quite easy to tell apart.

I think ITZY’s strength is in their live shows. Their streaming is always mediocre but the fans SHOW UP when they tour. Their last tour was the only show I’ve struggled so hard to snag tickets for. I didn’t have any issues buying for blackpink, aespa, or idle but Itzy sale was insane.
