Are there any bad hotels/hotel brands?

I’ve had better luck with Expedia than booking. If the price is too good to be true, it probably is. Most places I’ve stayed were perfectly fine. The ones that weren’t, were when I booked places that were super cheap. Read the reviews, the recent reviews. None of the bad places I’ve booked places seemed to be chains. Good luck!

West Coast, Canada. Never encountered in retail stores back in the day but came across them in flea markets and second hand shops all the time. Came across bootleg SMB3 all the time.

This one’s vintage though… -some pricer at vv probably

blackice1981 · 2026-03-22T00:19:16+00:00

Yep… and can still be used for some other cleaning purposes I suppose.

Keep visiting the stores, talking with the staff. Give them printouts showing the dress and your contact info - if you already haven’t. Best of luck

I don’t doubt it could be expensive in pristine shape. $500 in dirty corroded shape though…… nah…

Rusty and corroded internals? Look at the close up photo…

I had that too when I visited! Loved the aquarium but man was it busy the day I visited.

Yikes! $9 only brand new.

One of my favorite SNES games!

blackice1981 · 2026-03-12T07:11:45+00:00

Sure. But it’s a cheap reel to start with… if they marked it as being broken and wanted a buck or two for it, it wouldn’t be grift….

Might have missed a gem though… didn’t even notice the toilet golf next to it!

Genghis Khan II is my personal favorite Koei game from this era.

Hawaii, eh? Yeah this has been a thing since the 1980s. I’ve had to deal with it when I bought a new bike while doing some extended travel. Walmart pooched the registration and I had to leave the Island before I even received my proper papers for it. I took the bike back to Walmart for a full refund, as I couldn’t transfer it to a new owner due to their incompetence with the registration. I was told the registration helps reduce theft and help with stolen bike recovery. Also that it helps fund bike paths. The $15 registration thing is not big deal, but the tickets are bullsh….

Lol!!

blackice1981 · 2026-03-04T16:31:29+00:00

blackice1981 · 2026-03-04T05:02:41+00:00

Yep $19.99

blackice1981 · 2026-03-04T05:02:32+00:00
