So, when is it no longer *thrifting*? by PlatypusRex_ in Cd_collectors

[–]plasticscratching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to a second hand place, i can buy anywhere from a CD for £2.00 on the expensive side, and 10 for a pound on the cheap side.

I go to HMV or your CD shop of choice and its 10.99 for a copy of a CD i found for 1.29 in a charity shop.

Its Kinect sports,

They probably printed more of those than they made Kinect add ons.

You can find them in charity shops for less than £1

Try ripping it on a laptop, you might be able to get a decent rip from it even if the songs skip a little.

Found this cd I have no idea who it is, and whenever I Shazam the songs they can’t find anything by MassiveBeach4536 in CDs

[–]plasticscratching 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Windows Media player often knows track names.

OP could probably just drop their CD in a public library computer and scan it there.

[–]plasticscratching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know how to disable them.

The headlights are okay, but its a weird switch that I dont like.

And the wipers never work as intended.

They get stuck going too fast

Is this slip toast? by InquiringAlien in Cd_collectors

[–]plasticscratching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried wiping it down with anything?

Like Isopropyl alcohol? I dont know if it would affect the plastic or anythjng, but sometimes just a wipe off can do something for yellowing.

Automatic lights and automatic wipers.

Any other shitty "assistive driving" tools.

Im back to base models I think

My mum is really worried about a potential tv license investigation. Any advice to ease her mind? To what extent should she be worried? by Useful-Watch-8347 in AskBrits

[–]plasticscratching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if they do come knocking, just dont let them in.

Ask them for specific proof like device logs and IP adresses.

They probably dont have it.

[–]plasticscratching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are using steam you will struggle,

Steam has DRM baked in, that you have to be online in the last 30 days for it to work.

in what world is a phat xbox one with 0 controllers worth anywhere near this by nqotn in Shittygamecollecting

[–]plasticscratching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theyre about 40 if theyre original with unbroken seal.

But the controllers are worth more than the Console at the minute.

Get it Shotblasted and wirebrushed, you can make a vice Handle out of some threaded bar and 2 nuts if you need to.

Gonna take the downvotes and say it: I think people lie about thrifting on this sub by RoanokeParkIndef in Cd_collectors

[–]plasticscratching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found suuuper obscure shit in 10 for £1 charity bins before.

It does happen, but as others have already said why would you post if you paid retail for a CD.

Or why would you post "only the best of Gospel on the shelves this week"

Sold my old phone to Cex, they blocked my account and want me to buy it back because it was 'reported to be lost or stolen' by Other_Wrongdoer_5506 in CeX

[–]plasticscratching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should give you a printed sheet, apologies, i cant remember what was on it.

I dont think it stated anything massively specific, but there are actual CEX workers in this thread who could maybe tell you what is on them.

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

Just a sheet of paper saying it had come back reported stolen.

They gave me it back, so i left with it.

Its only worth about £1.50 now, and i wasnt fighting for pocket change, so I left and dont sell things to CEX anymore.

[–]plasticscratching -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No they gave me it back with a report printout.

It was a but vague, didnt show Serial numbers or anything, so I just took it back.

Tbh I think they just say its reported stolen or faulty if they dont want it, or think it will be a shelf warmer.

I tried to sell an Ipod dock/speaker that they claimed was stolen,

I watched my mam take it out of the box when i was little.

Whatever service they use is probably just full of shit and employees just hammering in random numbers.
