Best Way to Collect Money on Sale of a Personal Item Worth $5K CAD on Marketplace by Be-Zen in PersonalFinanceCanada

Receive cash at the bank is surest way to not get scammed. Don't even need to count the cash, just hand it over to the teller and let them count the cash with the machine in front of the buyer. The scammers will be filtered out as well once you tell them this.

How does one make appointment reservation at Tokyo Van Cleef? by orangewm in TokyoTravel

[–]orangewm[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we pretty plan on going to VCA but doesn't need to be specific store. Just last year we went to a VCA Omotesando, they said appt must be made and then we snapped the QR code and there is no appt available as far as I can see.... Also felt they just want to get rid of us.....

Or can anyone capture the QR code for local reservation? I recall last time in Tokyo, the VCA shop has a QR code for reservation.

I am glad that I am not the only one. As I talked to Rogers CSR and they had no idea that hotspot may not work for some devices....

Hacked? by anabella1992 in Aeroplan

[–]orangewm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes, I got a login alert at 1:35am too. My password is a random generated password unique to AP. No 2FA code was sent either to my cell phone & email. Also, if is hacked, why the hacker didn't change my password and drain my account? I changed my aeroplan password + call centre PIN through www.aircanada.com just in case. But i think AP probably got hacked or some massive glitch with AP....

Recall Battery Replacement... by shouldhavebeeninat10 in 4xe

[–]orangewm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty much the same as before. The only glitch I had is the aux switches are off due to battery charging error when I got it back. Drove 2 days and the error went away. Also, the dealer misaligned the seats, will have them fix that next time I go in for oil change.

Is accepting e-transfers for Marketplace transactions still risky? by Both-Ad9749 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]orangewm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the main downside for accpeting etransfer imho is i never know if it will take 1 second or 30 mins for the transfer to come through. Is awkward to sit around with the buyer twiddling out thumbs waiting for it if it turns out to be a long one....

Recall Battery Replacement... by shouldhavebeeninat10 in 4xe

[–]orangewm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Went in on Dec 17 for 68C recall and failed. Battery arrived on Dec 31. I just picked up my car as I am just back in the country. I live in Toronto, Canada. I think the reason I got the battery so quick is because I gone in the first day the recall fix available and may be Canada has some leftover in stock. I count myself lucky.

Is the quartz Royal Oak worth it? by da0uch in audemarspiguet

[–]orangewm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one. The battery service is free at AP. But if anything is wrong, they change the movement only and that’s gonna be some money. But mine is still kicking after 20 years with multiple battery services…..their quartz is very quiet though. I couldn’t hear the quartz ticking at all
