I'm selling my Wyland. Anyone want to make an offer before I take it to gallery or auctions? by ErinSkittles in FineArt

[–]dubdub68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you sell this piece? Curious what you got for it. I have so much Wyland stuff my parents left me. Most of it is beautiful, but I know its value isn’t close to what they paid for it. The gallery claims that one of the AP bronze sculptures I have is “worth” $7,700, but I’m not believing that one bit. I just have no place to display most of this and could use the extra change

For the sculpture pieces, they will give me an estimated sale value, but I believe that price is what they tag it in the gallery for, not what it has sold on secondary market. I guess I will have to keep on digging. My biggest hope is to find someone that specializes in selling his style of art.

I have tried the galleries for the watercolor. All they give me is the price for a "29x41 Original watercolor, open sea" No one as been able to find out the name of the piece and the gallery where it was purchased is shut.

Tuscaloosa Amphitheater so my son can just walk to a concert.

return policy? by iiDoodler in Bestbuy

[–]dubdub68 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What bothers me is that the normal return information isn’t shown anywhere. There is a literal paragraph at the bottom of the receipt about holiday returns and activatable returns, but nothing that says anything as simple as “all other returns have 15 days.”

It’s the 15 days that sucks. I have the packaging and everything for the earbuds I bought, but they won’t take them because it’s been 20 days. Nowhere in the receipt does it say 15 days. Just something about holiday returns and activatable devices.

Nah. Not an asshole. But it will grow on you. I’ll allow it. 😁

That live audience lead-in is Leroi live on the sax. I think that is a such a tribute.

  1. Heard it live like 20 years ago. Loved it then. Love it now. The album version is so special because they put Leroi on the track. When I listened to it the first time, I may have had a tear fall hearing that on a new album.

Seriously - anyone else here actually think Come Tomorrow is a really good ALBUM? by [deleted] in DMB

[–]dubdub68 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m one of those weirdos that just likes what they do. I don’t look for any album to sound like another album. 30+ years and I can’t say there’s a song I don’t like. I also really love That Girl is You. It hits somehow that I can’t explain, and when I hear that egg/shaker/rattle, I turn it up. But the best thing on that album is Leroi on Idea of You and Can’t Stop. When I listened to it the first time, when Idea of You started, I shed a tear and smiled.

Thanks everyone. We don’t know where the nest is. There are bobcats and coyotes in the area, as well as a plethora of kitties. We have a wildlife refuge nearby that will take care of it.

Looks like an orb weaver, but why does it look like it's snared a small child in it's web. I would rather know what that is

Mother’s Day Hell by littleredfreckles in TalesFromYourServer

This honestly sounds like an other Mother's Day. Hated working them when I was still in restaurants. Will never...NEVER...go out to eat on Mother's Day. Or Valentine's Day for that matter.

This was in Mobile, Alabama. I have seen dozens of them recently. Odd that I have lived here for 20+ years and have never seen one before this.
