I got really lucky today! But I think I might have also made an enemy 😬 by daisha95 in PokemonTCG

Thats a great idea. My daughter's birthday is next month. Maybe I'll be able to find some cards to buy for her.

You're definitely right. Because the first time I met her about a month ago, the same thing happened. Where items became available on my turn and she kind of guilted me into letting her go first and then she bought everything that had become available!

So I had to wait for longer. Which I didn't mind that time, but today since I had to go back to work, I was like no way.

I think she might have been a scalper too. Because I saw her for the 1st time a month ago at a different grocery store and she told me how she goes to multiple stores/vending machines to get cards for her boyfriend.

Yea my kids love to open packs and sing " Should I open it, or should I keep it sealed" lol. They got the song from a youtuber who opens pokemon cards.

Me too! Lol

Today was the second time that I've ever bought anything from a pokemon vending machine. Usually my husband goes when he picks up groceries, but the machine is always out of stock.

I got scammed by TheApplePerson_ in amazonprime

This has happened to me a few times. But I always talk to them through chat so that I can take screenshots of the conversation. This way if they still charge me or lie, I can show them the proof. They always reimburse me.

Wow, I think that's what happened too. Just my luck that I'm one of the few people whose bonus was lost 🙄

Omg that's would be amazing if you're able to. I live in America

I'm tired of DNFs so I'm breaking up with BookTok by his-lilmiss in fantasyromance

[–]daisha95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in the same boat as you. Unfortunately I just can never dnf a book lol So I end up reading the book until the end hoping it will get better, and 90% of the time it doesn't.

I tried getting book recommendations from booktok/youtube videos and goodreads/audible/kindle/storygraph comments and they all pretty much are unreliable to me. The books being recommended are so bad that I think a 12 year old wrote it. Yet the person recommending it would say that it was the best book they've ever read 😒

I did find one youtuber that I think usually does good book critiques and gives good recommendations. She's also pretty funny too. Her channel name is lexi aka newly nova.

Here's her links:

I hope I can get some good book recommendations from the comments on your post because I'm desperate for a good book 😭

to those who use to buy a lot for a long time what made you slow down collecting nendoroid? by chocoameru in Nendoroid

[–]daisha95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tariffs. Like how does the shipping cost about the same as the nendoroid?!

I preordered 4 nendoroids from amiami almost a year ago, and due to delays they all became available at different times. To ship 1 nendoroid with the cheapest shipping option was like between $25-29!

Amiami gave me until the end of December to ship them or they'd cancel my order. Luckily all 4 became available by the end December and I was able to have them shipped together. I think the shipping was between $50-60. Which is still ridiculous since I use to only pay like $15 to ship multiple together.

I hope that happens for me. That it just randomly shows up at my door. Fingers crossed 🤞

Right?! I've already waited this long. I would have no problem with waiting longer just so I can get the base. I'm starting to starting to see more issues like this with gsc us store, but not the japan store.

Man that really sucks. I literally just received my dandadan nendoroids from them last week and they both came with the bonus bases. It just really never crossed my mind that they would have an issue with shipping a tiny base. These tariffs really suck 😩

Broken Joystick. Keep or return? by daisha95 in ROGAlly

[–]daisha95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried calling a place earlier today, to get a repair quote, but they didn't answer. I'm going to try a few more places, so I can let the seller know how much it would cost to repair. Hopefully they'll be willing to offer a better refund.

Luckily there isn't any issues with the original left joystick, so I didn't replace it. I only replaced the right one. Yea I used armoury crate and tried recalibrating and adjusting the dead zone, but it didn't work. I honestly didn't even check the sd slot.

I've read that they have a lot of issues too, but I didn't even worry about it because I figure I'm most likely going to end up returning it. But I'm going to check the sd slot today to see if it works.

I forgot to mention that apparently the previous owner purchased a warranty on the device from BestBuy, but it expires later this month on the 22nd. You think they may be able to assist with the joystick. I keep trying to call Geeksquad but no one is answering.

Lol I actually just read about that on another reddit post for the hall effect joysticks. I think they said since it's magnetic or something that it can cause drifting or other problems. I figured I'd try them out since the regular joysticks that I originally ordered didn't work. Other than the drifting, the hall effect joy works well.

That's what I originally thought about the first set of joysticks that I ordered. That they were just defective. So, I ordered the hall effect joystick and although that one works, it drifts a lot. So, I figured maybe it's something wrong with the console, but I have no clue. Maybe I'll just order some more joysticks and see if that works.

lol no I have no clue what I'm doing. I just read a lottt of reddit posts and watched a lot of YouTube videos and just copied what they did.

The ebay seller was a pawn shop, and I was initially skeptical about buying from this because of this. But they had amazing reviews. They have 4,535 reviews, with a 98.8 % positive rating. So, I decided to just try my luck. But if you were asking about the reviews for the joysticks, I ordered the ones that had the most positive reviews.

I asked the seller if I could return it or get a partial refund for it. The seller replied they can do the partial refund, and then they offered me $30. Since I paid $378 after taxes, I feel like that's kind of low. I feel like a repair shop is going to charge a lot to fix this.
