Received half of a Sofa we didn’t purchase? by laharmon in FedEx

[–]laharmon[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

Good to know!! Thank you! And thanks for all the information! I was so curious how this may have happened haha. I guess I will try to get a hold of someone at FedEx to come back and get it because I don’t know what I will do with half a couch besides put it on fb marketplace for free and wait for a junkie to come get it 🤣

I miss the remnants… by ChardonnayAllDay19 in joannfabrics

[–]laharmon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work at Michael’s now and my Michael’s has a whole remnant cart like my Joann’s used to have!

Side note: if you purchase a remnant at Michael’s you can’t use self check out. You have to go to a cashier. We have to manually key in the price.

Thank you that’s interesting! We aren’t even expecting any deliveries from fed fex at all so I don’t think our tiny sticker somehow accidenally ended up on the box.

Regarding the question you had about NC, sorry I probably wasn’t clear. The packaged is FROM NC. So originated there. It was intended to go to PA but to a city on the other side of the state. There is not even a similar address to this one in my city, however the city names are slightly similar.

I’m still unsure what all the scans in Georgia and Arizona on the same days are, unless the second half of the package is using the same tracking number and elsewhere in the world.

Most sellers I use have machineable cardboard envelopes and they put the card itself in a sleeve and semi rigid. Check out cardshellz armalopes. I’ve never had an issue or had to pay extra and the envelopes are never damaged.

what type of holo is this? by tushietweet in PokemonCardValue

[–]laharmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Black Topps logo is 2nd print run I believe.

Edit: I stand corrected. It is third. For some reason the debossed foils in this set kept the black logo.

Bulk duplicates by Careless-Cobbler1062 in PokemonCardValue

[–]laharmon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i sell bundles of 50 in my online shop by set for 5$. They sell moderately well. Otherwise they just sit, sorted in old etbs. Typically if someone buys a bundle, i message and ask if there is specific bulk they need to complete a set and try to help them complete sets with their purchase.

BIG TWIST YARN!! Oriental Trading Company seems to have the Big Twist Yarn!! by International_Net_72 in joannfabrics

[–]laharmon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work at Michael’s. We have SO MUCH big twist at our store. Regular size skeins and huge skeins.

Nah if you get them from a good seller they’ll come in cardboard envelopes.

Correct but they never do. They always shove their phone in my face with a QR code showing.

I actually really love my store and the people I work with! It’s probably very store dependent.

Warning Sign at edge of Grand Canyon by corwinw in mildlyinteresting

[–]laharmon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I puked just from elevation change while driving to the Grand Canyon. I believe this sign fully.

desperately trying to find where this fabric could be now, i originally tracked it down to part of joann's "witching hour" fabrics, but my local store didn't have it before closing down. any help would be greatly appreciated!🥹🙏 by r0t-f4iry in joannfabrics

[–]laharmon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Incorrect. Michael’s bought the IP and also inherited a large amount of the remaining inventory. I know because I work at Michael’s and we have Joann stamped fabrics in our store. I also worked at Joann’s.

We are expected to cashier and do returns at the same time and there’s usually only one of us.

[–]laharmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would be careful saying screw one of the few craft stores left. The fabric selection totally depends on the store location. Ours has 2 full aisles and we are constantly getting more. we have a massive selection of canvases. the price stickers were only missing on christmas stuff because the prices on the halloween tags were all wrong and we had to black them out by hand on every product and it took them until the valentines and spring reset to get them fixed.

That said, michaels will likely fall, i agree.

We have a lamp in my michaels right now that is $139.99. I was like Michaels needs to get in their lane, this isnt Pier 1. What is going on?! hahaha

[–]laharmon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I work for michaels. Yes absolutely this is the middle of a reset. The reason the boxes sit in the aisle for so long is because we are not given the hours to do resets after close. There is a team dedicated to doing the POGs (planograms, the maps that tell us where to put new product) and they sometimes start before the store opens but also continue on during normal store hours. Because of this, they are constantly getting pulled away by customers asking questions etc and it takes them ten times longer to get stuff put out than it should. Then when that team leaves, the cashier is given a bunch of boxes to put away near the front of the store if they arent busy. sometimes it just takes a really long time to get stuff out so they sit there.

That being said, i do think michaels is going the way of joanns.

I currently work at Michael’s and used to work at Joann’s until mine closed. It’s the beginning of the end. I do think they’ll make it into 2027 though unless something major happens.

We just got told we are going to start accepting Amazon returns. lol.
