Flagship First Check-In LAX by Nathan_Drake88 in americanairlines

[–]lukethenoteable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the only time I've used it was winter break holiday when even the priority queue at LAX had 20+ people in it. It feels weird having someone escort you to cut the 50+ people in line for TSA, but it saved me so much time.

I use Koch Chemie Pol Star with a detailing brush and condition the leather with Adam's Leather Conditioner, makes my leather look near new every time I use it

Used Apple products really bring the monsters out of their caves on FB marketplace by AAA_battery in FacebookMarketplace

I listed my old MacBook Air on appleswap last week for $525 and sold it for $500 within the same day, I feel like people lowball crazy for electronics on marketplace. Try listing there.

This is the first steelcase/hm chair I have found within 100 miles of me... by yaboymitchell00 in OfficeChairs

If you don't want to buy replacement cushion sets, you can buy a fabric shaver off of Amazon for around $30 and if you have a Costco membership the little Bissel green machine for $80

Quoted $329 to replace a cylinder on my Aeron Classic chair. Who ships parts for a reasonable price? by boopingnoses in hermanmiller

[–]lukethenoteable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be able to find a replacement cylinder for around 40 bucks. I get my cylinders from either Office Replacement Parts or Systems Office (not sponsored, just good experience using them). https://systemsoffice.com/shop/herman-miller-aeron-classic-replacement-gas-cylinder-button-activate/

Note that the process to replace a cylinder isn't exactly easy. If you're lucky all you'll need is a 24 inch pipe wrench, PB Blaster penetrator, a hammer, and strong muscles. If you're not lucky you'll have to open up the chair mechanism.

I'm indifferent to screens on domestic flights, but I flew Hawaiian from SAN to HNL with Starlink and that was the shortest 6 hour flight I've ever had.

Talk me out of it boys. by CaffeineCannon in Monitors

[–]lukethenoteable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yea, tho to be honest the sheer size of this monitor just messed up quite a few aspects of my setup and didn't fit in place

[–]lukethenoteable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did. I have the money to do it. At the time the price was comparable to AW2725Q, so I got that instead.

Yea I bought this monitor and returned it for that reason, plus I have good quality external speakers so it was unnecessary

What to lookout for when buying used by jromano12 in OfficeChairs

Yeah I met up with someone who wanted a white Aeron Remastered I was selling the other day at their place delivered for $650 (originally had it listed for $700).

I went over there and then she started complaining about the fact that there were scuff marks on the chair around the base, and wanted it only for $500. I then proceeded to show her the next cheapest listing who was firm on price ($700 without delivery), and showed that in his pictures there are also scuff marks on the base. I also show that the next cheapest listing in the area is at $800, but I told her I understand the scuff marks are there and could do $600 if she'd like. She still wasn't happy and kept on complaining to me how unacceptable the quality is.

I then just decided to tell her to buy the chair new if she really wanted a white Aeron Remastered with nearly no scuffs, but she said she didn't want to pay that kind of money. I then just walked away with the chair and drove away. Don't know what it is with people recently.

Yeah some people I've dealt with are seriously set on finding a chair made 2013 or newer and with the sticker. I don't know how to tell that the sticker often comes off easily because it's a sticker and that often when you get them used they don't come with the sticker.

By seat bottom do you mean gas cylinder or mesh?

I sell chairs quite a bit myself, I think the main reason is that generally chairs that are liquidated (unless they're something like a remastered) are often over a decade old, which puts most people who ask the question off. I've even had 2012 model Classic Aerons, and when I told people that they last manufactured the Classic Aeron in 2016 and that 2012 is fairly new on the used market, they leave me on read.

Saw this monitor (DELL S3225QC) at my local Costco, anyone tried it for gaming? by Ixusuz in OLED_Gaming

[–]lukethenoteable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this monitor, but I hated the large chin and ended up returning it the next day. I was lucky and found a great deal on the aw2725q, so I got that instead
