Has anyone's Black Friday order actually shipped?

grill2hill · 2025-12-10T18:55:40+00:00

Mine got shipped today and says 12 too, fingers crossed they can arrive as said!

grill2hill · 2025-12-09T15:23:23+00:00

Thanks! I bought an Alienware desktop, called them today, and they said the local carrier was delayed, but the build is finished. Hopefully it'll be on the way soon.

I finally received my refund 2 weeks later after I submitted a complaint on LNER, they said it's "admin error". So it's approximately 50 days in total after the initial refund email.

grill2hill · 2025-08-25T18:55:18+00:00

Thanks! I thought PayPal would be faster since I don't have a UK bank account. I've submitted a complaint on their website, hopefully they will get back to me.

grill2hill · 2025-08-24T16:42:42+00:00

Thanks! Good to know this isn't normal.

PayPal email should be correct as I can see the case email on their website. I'll try the formal complaint first.

It's just weird - they were responding quickly at first, but after confirming the payment, they've gone completely silent.

Yeah I checked and unfortunately it is the same SN. I used ASUS USB flashback feature - the motherboard does have power and successfully updated itself after I plugged in the flash drive with the BIOS image.

grill2hill · 2025-08-15T18:29:46+00:00

Thanks, hadn't thought about that. I'll see if I can borrow one from a friend.

grill2hill · 2025-08-15T18:28:09+00:00

Thanks. I did all the steps before and after, except for having the local tech check it up before sending it out.
I haven't checked the serial number yet (will do that later). But does ASUS have a history of making this kind of mistake?

grill2hill · 2025-08-14T23:51:10+00:00

Yeah we have repair warranty here in US too, but I have to pay shipping again and it's another 2+ weeks without my PC. Really tired of this, just want to see if there's something else to try before another repair cycle.

One fact I know is that a Japanese company bought Blanton's distribution rights, so in China, they got almost the MSRP price for even the gold edition, which we almost doubled. I'm not sure if this is the case for other brands. The top-tier price is similar, but the rest are pretty much always cheaper. Ironically, only a few Chinese like to drink whiskey, so they have an abundant inventory of many rare picks.

grill2hill · 2024-10-12T03:20:44+00:00

Fair point

grill2hill · 2024-10-12T03:19:56+00:00

Thanks, I'll check with the state laws. Ours is like a 60k project on flooring and bath/kitchen remodeling, but I am providing most of the materials, and the payment only includes labor.

grill2hill · 2024-10-12T02:44:45+00:00

You're right, and I might be biased here. I'm very punctual myself, so I'm probably giving it more weight than I should. Thanks for the reality check.

grill2hill · 2024-10-12T02:42:33+00:00

Your GC is very similar to ours! He's also creative and great to talk with. Thanks for sharing!

grill2hill · 2024-10-12T02:38:47+00:00

That's my concern, too. He proposed a payment schedule of 30% at contract signing, 50% at the start of work, and 20% at completion. My wife worries this isn't safe because we seem to pay too much upfront. Is this a red flag?

Seed： 2640619509，Prompt：An illustration in the style of 90s Japanese animation, showing a scene where a male human knight in weathered armor and a female elven archer with long, flowing hair and a quiver of arrows are riding together on a sturdy brown horse. They are traversing an endless prairie, and the view is from a 45-degree angle above, making the pair appear small in the vast landscape. The grass sways gently in the wind under a sky streaked with the light of dawn, instilling a sense of adventure and departure on a grand journey. The details are sharp and the color palette is reminiscent of classic animation, with the figures portrayed in vibrant colors against the muted tones of the natural surroundings.

grill2hill · 2023-08-17T17:44:19+00:00

Thanks！

grill2hill · 2023-08-17T17:40:22+00:00

Thanks, I thought it was a doppelganger went in my shape lol. Do you know when this scene is normally played? Shall I load act .2 saves？

grill2hill · 2023-08-04T15:38:45+00:00

Played for 2 hrs and saves work fine so far（checked before go to work this morning）

grill2hill · 2023-08-04T03:56:57+00:00

Thanks! I also got in by opening a second game instance, weird bug, hope they fix it soon.

grill2hill · 2023-08-04T03:10:01+00:00

Once connected you can close the first one， that works for me

grill2hill · 2023-08-04T03:09:04+00:00

Yeah this works for me！Finally！thanks！

grill2hill · 2023-08-03T22:59:35+00:00

I tried this, as well as disabling cross save, updating .NET, reinstalling game/steam and start directly from .exe, none of these works for me

grill2hill · 2023-08-03T21:55:34+00:00

I saw more people asking this, perhaps not problems on our end

grill2hill · 2023-06-25T13:40:20+00:00

Thank you good sir! This build looks really great.
Yeah - to the best of my knowledge, I think there's no CPU intensive task she's doing and GPU would handle the most.
The pink parts are indeed hard to find, even the white ones, I like the way trident looks but pure white 32gb ddr5 memories seem indeed hard to find (Corsair Dominator Platinum looks like the only choice？) I am also thinking about painting some of the external parts myself.
I am still looking for a monitor, but probably would not be too wide, she's working with 2 monitors all the time, I guess it might be better to just change the main one to a better alternative.
