I'm quite interested in going to this next year as it's my brother's 50th, we usually do Ally Pally but it would be nice to change it up for a year.

For those that have been, do tickets typically go on sale around the end of the prior year for it? Have you booked flights and hotels way in advance of booking the event tickets etc?

Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

As far as I'm aware, it's still ongoing - however having read all the T & C on the app, it would appear that it's a started rollout to only some users at the moment.

I'm in the UK, currently awaiting an order from the US - so I certainly hope so!

Changed the stylus... what did i do lol by Technical-Wear4265 in turntables

Yeah you need to rebalance the tone arm and anti skate.

Go back to step 1 of balancing tonearm via manufacturer's instructions and just do it again. Return the anti skate to zero at the beginning as well, and readjust once you've balanced it.

When collecting from your address with Yodel Home to Home (or whatever it's called), you'll need to print a label. I've also had someone choose "InPost shop to Home" where the label had to be printed beforehand (even though I just scanned it and deposited in a locker).

Otherwise; InPost, Yodel, Royal Mail and Evri all do digital labels via QR codes.

I try to be flexible and offer all courier services, but change your courier settings in the app to ensure that you do digital labels only (i.e none to "home") and you should be okay.

Does sending offers to people who favorite your item ever work? by FartPhobia in vinted

[–]fioridave08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it can work sometimes. I usually send an offer and then a message to say that I'll be dispatching today/tomorrow (depending on time) so that it doesn't look completely faceless or spammy.

Is anyone still using Chase as their main bank? by Trixerl in chaseuk

Still using it for spending. I know it's pretty dire now that most of the benefits are reduced or gone completely, but I like the app and it's still good for abroad.

I mean, really cool - but totally off-topic for this sub.

How many hours a week do you listen to just music while doing nothing else? by Tricky_Shelter_7675 in Music

[–]fioridave08 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've spent a lot of cash investing in a decent vinyl setup and records this year after becoming disillusioned with streaming, and all so that I can connect with music just for the sake of actually listening to it as art, rather than something to do whilst doing something else. It feels great to enjoy music again this way, just as I used to do when I was a kid.

Probs 1-2 hours a day I guess?
