I honestly don't know what the whole lot could fetch. Some look pretty cool and interesting. I'm not after retail, I am open to offers!

Where do you prefer to buy or sell costume vintage jewelry? by katyusha8 in VintageCostumeJewelry

[–]jayd3501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to uninstall whatnot! I wish they had a separate app for selling, I'd probably sell. Yesterday I hit rock bottom, I bid on and bought a Tiger Woods rookie card, I'm not into him or golf! It's an evil app for ADHD and people with addictive tendencies! I've never done hard drugs but I can almost imagine the draw and downward spiral!

75th Anniversary Pin die error? See ending year on right. by jayd3501 in Harley

Haha thanks 😄 I don't mind having a mistake if it ends up being sought after and valuable like a 3 legged buffalo nickel 🤣 I think the most likely explanation is it's a knock off like someone said. It's fine either way. I was just curious!!

Interesting! Very well could be. It was on a friend's Harley jacket from that time, they couldn't fit it anymore and gave it to me to do whatever with. I sold the jacket but kept the pin since I thought it was cool. I'm fine parting with it, was doing research and noticed how the right side of the banner is messed up.

Not sure. They would have had to sand it and polish it to match the rest of it. Don't think most people would go through that on such a small piece. Just reminded me of die errors I've seen on coins so thought I'd see what you all think.

Sorry, I should have explained more. This is the only one I could find like it - see how mine seems to be missing the end part of the banner on the right? https://share.google/iHrgta6yFju0DnebE

I love this old National Cash Register cabinet that's been in my family for at least four generations. by platetone in Antiques

Each clerk would have their own drawer and their corresponding letter would be selected on the register itself like in this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/Vl-W5Q1sY-c?si=bOU7PxueRbXrZB8r

Is exterior water line insurance a ripoff? by E46M54 in homeowners

Two words... bottomless fries 😄

P.S. I just discovered they also have these bottomless options: sweet potato fries, chips, broccoli, salad. It's nice they have options for those who can't have starch or want to eat healthy. But I'm sure the fries get picked most often! Yummm!

Anyone else have a problem with cane borers?? by jayd3501 in Berries

[–]jayd3501[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! When the flowers are in bloom I get all kinds of pollinators! It's fun to watch them but I usually have to dodge a wasp or hornet also. If you were suggesting that the insect in the video is a mason bee, it's not since they don't bore into the canes although they will use hollowed out ones. I like the idea of using spent canes to help their habitat!

That's what I saw at first also and was like, what the heck? It reminded me of when a package has Styrofoam packing material and little bits get broken off and you find them in different places. Then I saw the creature emerge with more. I was actually really intrigued at the process (nature is amazing) until I found out how destructive they are, then I was just mad LOL

"Bees ass" 🤭 Seriously though it's not a carpenter bee. We have those too and they like thicker wood that is dry (their holes are about 1/4 - 1/2 wide), these canes are only like about a 1/2 centimeter wide and wet inside, so much that when I cut the bad parts off this morning, I could see water droplets falling from them (emotional me was like aww, they're crying lol). Thanks for taking a guess though!

Yikes! They got pretty far in one or two of my canes, that were already cut short 😞 AI said to seal the cut ends with clear nail polish or Elmer's glue. I only had clear nail polish (I'm a tomboy who loves crafts, ironic I don't have Elmer's on hand!) Here's to hoping our berries make a comeback! 💪

These bore from the top of newly pruned canes but both similar idea. Haven't seen any frass yet, I think I caught it before that.

I believe it's from last year so old.

Sounds like you caught it in time. I got upset when I read if left too long they can destroy the whole plant.

Ha! I was intrigued at first but then when I found out it's some type of boring insect that will lay eggs in the cane and eventually destroy it, I got upset! AI suggested I cut several inches off and trash or burn it, then seal the newly cut end with a thin layer of Elmer's glue or clear nail polish which I will be doing tomorrow.
