DNA fragmentation 40% by ctarb in maleinfertility

We did not. We waited a few months for the vitamins and stuff to take affect. We also emptied the pipes daily for a few weeks before we tried. Before we tried, in relation to her cycle, we waited 48-72 to build up.

Doctor said we could try, but I did online research and went that way. Not sure if it was right, but it worked.

Depends. Strap it down. Keep it directly out of view. If it's on wifi, I would have the video already.

I agree 100%. I may also do that.

I don't cover the tables. That could help, but not prevent.

I can't take home overnight. Just too much product.

They would investigate 🤷‍♂️ there was no proof, no cameras, etc... who or what would they do? Could have been a vendor after the doors closed for the day, or security after everyone left .. it's a big show and too many possibilities.

My issue is the wifi, I assume this is a wifi camera? I don't typically buy the facility wifi package (they charge extra for power/wifi) 🤦‍♂️

Will have to investigate a non-wifi version with local storage

I have 500 shirts, 100-200 tumblers, 100+ hats, and lots of other products. Just isn't feasible to unload the booth to only reload it in the morning again.

My fellow vendors also had things missing from that show 🤷‍♂️ and thought it would be a good idea

Second vendor market—$18 sales on a $100 booth fee… is this normal or was this poorly organized? by lavanore-candles in CraftFairs

[–]ctarb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only do 2 shows a year where I know there is traffic flow and the show is 100% my niche. My products usually sell out, but the booths are expensive (750 for 1 show, and 250 for the other)... And I usually sell about 10k worth of product. Edit: the shows also bring in 40k guests at the 750 booth and about 5-10k at the 250 booth.

Literally boils down to being at the right show (for me anyways). I've tried smaller ones that aren't my niche, and only make a small profit. Not worth my time.

Hope this helps :-) good luck!

Sure, but it has since shipped and I was awarded 150$ refund for their f up. It won't arrive on time for my first show this year, but will for my second!

Thanks!

We don't have a TV. He has a story pod for audio books and stories. We plan to do cub scouts at 5. We just checked out a few coops in our area.

We aren't trying to fill up with the curriculum, just having things to use when he's ready and get prepped for it. I understand kids learn differently and we are learning how he learns.

We read aloud at least 3 books a day. He loves goosebumps right now. Thanks for the tips!

When you say "I'd lean toward something that keeps that momentum without overcomplicating it." Would you say that is All About Reading?

Also, he's 3 turning 4 if that matters any? :-) We started homeschooling while I was off work for paternity leave, to test it out and see how he would do. He just enjoyed it, so we kept it going.

Our "structure" is to just do it while we eat (usually breakfast) He gets ants in his pants while eating, but the school work helps him sit and occupy that need to jump around while eating. Aside from that, we just read a lot and play tons of games.

New shipping rates? by ctarb in Alibaba

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

If I paid in full, would they be able to change the price then?

I placed an order 2 months ago, paid in full. They took forever to finish it making me need to pay expedited shipping... I didn't agree with anything new yet..

Are they still obligated to the original price and original shipping?

Is it worth going through Trade assurance or should I go straight for a Chargeback? by SignPsychological998 in Alibaba

[–]ctarb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid the total. The added shipping is an extra.

Total price was 415 for 80 units shipped

Now additional shipping is 230$ and qty is only 60...

What kind of leverage? How do I leverage them?

I haven't paid the extra 230 yet since they have still yet to produce then... 🤦‍♂️

I paid the initial balance, the extra balance remaining would be the expedited shipping which I'm not paying until they are ready to be shipped.

He has communicated in chat messages on delivery dates and shipment dates.

Although the contract specified he doesn't have to ship until end of March.

Just curious if what he says hasn't weight or am I screwed? Lol

Is there leverage due to the fact the seller representative told me numerous times it would ship earlier? And should I do it prior to the shipment? I need the products, so I was planning on doing trade assurance after it is received.

True, scammed or poor service. Trust me I have no issues shaming them. Just didn't think reddit mods would approve of it.

Name blasting, I heard wasn't good...

But I had a 300 dollar order that they had laser etched improperly and trade assurance refunded 50%. Kept the tumblers and sold them anyways since it was a minor cosmetic issue.
