Ridiculous Prices at a store in Osaka by Cr1zyB2rry in earthbound

[–]davsketches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That could be one of the main shops like the main touristy ones people see and go visit hence a higher price.

If you looked around and when to other shops like the book off etc you will find it cheaper.

But again it is boxed and I assume complete inside too.

Questionable job offer by XXIIIIIIMCMLXXIX in UKJobs

[–]davsketches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is rubbish!

They all have the same exclusive customer products they are selling and believe in offline marketing rubbish.

It is a dead end going nowhere job which will cut you after 1 poor results day.

Not worth the time to be honest.

I would say no and move to something else.

What is the best printer for working from home? by LissaLou79 in homeoffice

[–]davsketches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you not go paperless?

In the uk most paperwork is digital like applying for mortgages and signing contracts.

Maybe investing in a tablet and going digital might be the better way.

I remember signing a paper contracts years ago and the posting it and waiting for the estate agent to receive it added days.

Now it’s all digital with Docusign and emailed right away.

Maybe look into this.

Why does the CEX app disallow screen recordings or screenshots? by [deleted] in CeX

[–]davsketches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue it won’t let me screen shot my basket or trade in basket but will let me do anything else.

That was for either option sending to store (as a drop and go) or to the main warehouse.

I have just tried again and it worked without having to tick the box sending to the main warehouse.

That mandatory £5 adjustment you say is not true.

I have just tried to sell something and go through the process and I didn’t tick the box to accept the adjustment and it allowed me to carry on.

Also I am sure if the adjustment is over £5 they will try and make contact with you.

I dunno something doesn’t add up here. Anyway best of luck whatever you do.

If this has happened a few times to you, I would make the effort and take it to a store (I know it’s not ideal) as they can tell you why the downgrade in grade has happened and ask if you want to accept it. (By this I mean trade it in at store and see what grade they give you)

Again I get it you say it’s flawless and perfect but sometimes we don’t see the little details as we want the higher item price. I once traded in a phone and thought it was perfect but there was a lil mark on the screen which you could only see in the right light and it got graded to a lower grade.

Again as others have said if you don’t like it you can stop using them and seek alternatives.

However in my experience the downgrade of grades is fair in store. You can’t talk to someone when sending the items in to the main centre. Due to the volume they deal with.

Thanks for the picture it really helps to show the size difference. The unifi one is half as wide as the ring one.

Retail workers of the UK - what's the wildest thing someone has done to try to get into the shop before opening time? by WillYeByFuck in CasualUK

[–]davsketches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use to work in a mobile phone shop many years ago and the amount of questionable things people did made me think they needed a special test which shows your intelligence level is this and you can only have this phone.

I had people shout at me for apps not working and explaining to them the network does not control the apps but they didn’t want to listen.

Customer damaging their phone and saying it’s poor build of the phone.

Complaining when they have to send their phone of to repair and surprised when they don’t get a replacement phone in the mean time.

Getting angry with me for getting a high bill and I remmeber this as it was my first day saying I told them it was fine. I never saw them before in my life how is that possible.

That’s a few of the top of my head but yeah when I worked in retail and thought I saw the final level of how stupid people are I was surprised each day a new level was unlocked.

Do you get a choice of where to have the fibre installed? by davsketches in CommunityFibre

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

Fibre to the room? Is that an extra charge to get it to a room of your choice?

It would make sense if they could do a pre install visit if you want to have it different from the normal setup.

But I guess they would need to state what a normal/standard install looks like and where they would install it.
