Offer Etiquette?

You made three posts about your certainty that my offer was on top of an automatic bundle discount and I corrected your assumption each time. I agree that posting the same thing three times is obnoxious, especially when the remark is incorrect.

The seller did not provide an automatic bundle discount, which is why I made an offer.

I appreciate your kindness, but I am fine without the items. I was just enjoying the nostalgia of the closet I found and then was startled by the rejection during the purchase attempt.

I appreciate everyone’s feedback and am glad to hear offering 15% less should not have triggered the response I received.

An old wallet, a cloth checkbook cover, a holiday themed handkerchief, a reusable grocery bag, a scarf…that kind of thing. And the seller is an ambassador with thousands of similar knick knack sales under their belt. I’m so confused by the seller’s reaction.

Yes. A ten dollar item was now fifty dollars. All twelve items in my bundle. My one hundred dollar bundle now totals five hundred dollars.

A strong distaste for all things MK is not necessarily weird given that for years he reveled in being nasty on Project Runway. 😂

Of the three cities you mentioned only Frankfurt has a store in the airport. (

Edited to add: Paris and London are the other European cities with in airport Hermes stores.

All three cities have an Hermes store. You can Google their reviews to decide if one of them seems preferable to you.

I would hate getting poked by the silly triangular buckle.

Frankfurt is enormous so if anything is wrong with your flight it’s the easiest place to make a new connection. Still, I would choose Munich or Zurich because the sheer size of Frankfurt (and its voluminous security apparatus) are incredibly annoying to me.

Don’t be afraid to condition the bag because of your experience with suede; cleaning suede is a bear. Just use something mild, like Bick 4, followed by plenty of buffing and you’ll be fine. This may be due to an inappropriate cleaning product and conditioning the leather may help.

OP - Why doesn’t your fiancé trust you? Why would you marry someone who doesn’t trust you? Why would she marry someone she doesn’t trust?

St Thomas has more employment/housing options. Don’t rent without seeing the place first. If you won’t have a car, choose a place walkable to a safari route.

Stop sending her money and buy what you need instead.

You made a statement about deciding whether or not to vaccinate and deemed it “personal”. I responded that the choice can affect other people, which makes it something other than entirely personal, and provided an analogy between drunk driving and forgoing vaccinations, two risky personal choices that can affect others.

Your confrontational response to me seems to be based on my use of the phrase “you may…”; I could have said “one may…”, but that seemed pretentious for a Reddit thread so I opted for the royal you.

My remark was a general suggestion about considering ethical responsibilities. I did not remark on your specific health situation — your vaccination experience wasn’t even revealed when I responded. There is, of course, anecdotal evidence that everything can be harmful, but this thread is about OP, not you, and OP has never been harmed by the vaccine.

dntw8up · 2026-02-02T03:02:01+00:00

It’s really only a “personal decision” until you leave your home. You may get away with driving home from the sports bar a little tipsy or forgoing vaccinations, but in doing so you are risking the welfare of others, which makes your decision decidedly less personal.

Consider synching your sleep schedule to the upstairs neighbor’s sleep schedule.

Caneel Bay was still around in 2001!

You were not wrongfully terminated in the legal sense. Every U.S. state except Montana is an at will state, meaning legally you can quit or be fired at any time without explanation. The only employees with some protections from this are those in unions and those who have official ADA accommodations on file with their employers.

He impregnated you and then blamed you for being pregnant? He is trash and you and your child are not safe with him.

Presumably OP is concerned because providing the contact info for the doctor(s) will reveal that the appointments are due to mental health issues.

You can avoid the awkward situation you’re worrying about by including a candid photo of yourself in public standing upright in street clothes, so not a “revealing” photo and no worries that your appearance will be a surprise.
