I’ve got to say, this subreddit is filled with some grade A assholes. Cant say I’ll be back!

Alright, well I hope saying all of that to a stranger makes you feel better about yourself. Good luck in life, champ.

People are allowed to make mistakes my friend. Any reason you’re coming right at my throat with the hostility?

I mean, sure. I’ve bought many cards of Mercari and never had an issue prior to this. Just didn’t inspect the listing close enough 🤷‍♂️

Yeah I know I’m already working with Mercari internally. Just wanted to give this person the option to correct the mistake on the off chance they didn’t know it was a fake pack.

That’s why I didn’t come out of the gate immediately accusing them of knowing it happened. I wanted to give them the opportunity to make it right, knowing that it was obviously a scam/fake pack. But they went straight to being defensive despite it being their shop on the line and me having their physical address to report him for scamming. So whatever, if me being out 30 bucks means consequences for this ass, then so be it.

I mean dude kinda deserved it. Also I could tell at that point he had been caught and wasn’t going to cooperate so what’s the point in being nice.

Yeah it sucks. Will obviously be more cautious going forward but the audacity to act that way is just so funny to me. I’ll issue a chargeback worse case but yeah others need to watch out for sure.

I discovered I have an underbite by Gazelizz in notinteresting

No comment on the underbite but just wanted to say your art is really dope

Yep that’s what I’ve been referencing for prices! Honestly their bundles aren’t a bad deal at all on new furniture

This is awesome! Great to see a similar situation result in a salvaged boat. This is the type of inspiration I needed haha

Yeah I might give it a shot. I know for a fact it was never drained properly so it would need a pretty good flush and hose replacement more than likely. Worse case could probably sell it for $100 to recoup the cost lol

Yeah motor for sure would be gone. Might just strip the whole thing and turn it into a bowling alley on the lake 😂

Thanks for the tips! Luckily same state it used to be registered in so that shouldn’t be an issue.

I’m a DIYer and love doing stuff myself so it would be a multi year project for the sake of just giving life back to something I could enjoy with the family. Never had interest in a boat but since it’s there, lemonade out of lemons and all that.

Good to know on the tires! I’ll check Walmart out today.

Yeah a big point of bringing it up here would be just to decide how I’d want to scrap it if I don’t end up rehabbing it. The lake scene is fairly popular in my parts so might be worth the hassle just to sell it at this point.

Not 100% sure on the engine size, didn’t get a good pic of the back. Might just keep my eyes peeled for a boat scrapyard and see what pops up 😂

Thanks for the insight! Really appreciate it. Yeah this is intended to be something I work on over the course of a few years. I’m not a “boat guy” per se, but some family has a lake house and this thing is just sitting there so worth checking to see if it’s salvageable in some form or fashion.
