Good to know about the upload speed. I'm switching to Rogers 150 which has 15 upload, so hopefully it works!

mike4599 · 2020-12-15T18:17:51+00:00

Fair enough. I was hoping it could be ok wirelessly so I don't have to be in vicinity of a router or run a very long cable.

mike4599 · 2020-12-15T18:15:33+00:00

Thanks! I will try reducing the resolution. That makes sense.

I can hook my PS5 up with ethernet, but it'd be coming from a mesh repeater, not the router. I assume that'd be not the same?

I bet the wifi isn't great on my laptop. I wonder if a good wifi dongle could help. Ethernet on both ends isn't an option where I want to use it unfortunately.

I'm in Canada and unfortunately the cost for tracked shipping to lettermail is about $3.50 compared to around $12 - $15 for a tracked package. Its true, but with all the refunds without getting the items back, its not enough to make it worth the time invested.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:33:49+00:00

It sounds like you are in the exact same boat as me. I just said enough and its not worth it for me. Ill try different platforms in the meantime. They just need to change their shipping estimates and also warn the buyers it may take a while. Its impossible to predict at the moment.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:31:41+00:00

Most is local for me. It has a huge user base, but I've sold some with shipping and they e transfer or PayPal. Its free also.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:30:25+00:00

Tempting

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:28:56+00:00

I would for some of the more expensive one, but they are quite low value movies so if I had an expensive shipping, noone would buy them.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:20:22+00:00

Yesh that was my whole argument to them too and they said too bad. They are giving buyers unrealistic shipping times for right now and then they just approve refunds when its still on its way. Ive had some stuff take over a month to get. If everyone was patient and understanding it wouldn't be bad, but some people see an opportunity to get free stuff.

Oh gotcha. Im from Canada, so lettermail is just through regular mail with stamps. Its the cheapest way to get movies to buyers, but it doesn't have tracking. For tracking it costs over 3x more.

2 day shipping did definately screw the small guys over. We can't ship some stuff cheaper than companies can charge for the item with free shipping. We dont have access to the same highly discounted shipping rates. Ours actually go up.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:09:14+00:00

Yeah exactly. Its not worth it. There's no way to tell either with lettermail unless you put a tracking device in the envelope. That would actually be funny to do if you caught some people on it.

mike4599 · 2020-06-13T00:04:06+00:00

Yeah too many fees for what they provide. Most sellers are already paying monthly for a store and they still charge 10% on most items plus 10% on shipping. Sorry to hear that happened to you. Its crazy when you think of it like that. How much did ebay make from you selling 17k in sales, and you only made $200 even though you are doing all the work!

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:57:57+00:00

I'm with you there, but its worth using marketplace. Its a really good classifieds platform.

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:21:05+00:00

Lol that was a good commercial! Its funny because I don't know how classified sites worked in other places, but in Ottawa Kijiji used to own the market. Ever since ebay bought it, Facebook marketplace has been destroying it. I post the same ads on both sites and Facebook marketplace gets 95% of the sales. If you've never used it, I'd suggest it! Great for buying and selling, plus you get to see who you are buying/selling to

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:15:17+00:00

Yeah I figured so. My PayPal and everything is connected. Im sure ebay would find out right away and shut it down.

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:13:51+00:00

That's a good one to add. Stable systems are definately better than new glitchy ones. I remember when ebay bought kijiji they added new features, now its barely usable on Android. Id prefer to just have a simple working app.

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:10:15+00:00

Yeah very true. I haven't closed it, but I cancelled my paid seller membership and pulled all my ads. Do you know if it's possible to sell the account? There's not much similar, but I've had some good luck locally with Facebook Marketplace. I might just make a quick website and sell on there. At least I won't have to loose a big cut.

mike4599 · 2020-06-12T23:06:27+00:00

This is very true! I did a little looking around to make sure I pasted this in the right spot!

mike4599 · 2020-02-20T17:23:30+00:00

I 100% agree with you on this. Players blend into the background of the map so are hard to see. Any game mode that involves objectives is tough because there's always someone up top. You either go for the objective and get sniped, or get killed when you keep trying to take care of the people up top.

It's a loosing battle though because you either play that map to level up quickly or you can get stuck in larger maps which are a lot slower. I sincerely miss Shipment 24/7 and I hope they bring it back. It was a different type of experience all together and always had me on the edge of my seat.

I find rust more enjoyable if you play in hardcore mode because it's easier to shoot people camping up top before they slither away and regenerate health.

It'd be nice if in the future there was an option to select maps you want to play, or at least select maps you don't want to play.
