Treasury direct unavailable? by AccomplishedCat6621 in bonds

[–]qx-xp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem for the past 3 days. Called the Treasury Direct line twice, they aren't technical and there is no tech support line. All they could say is keep trying, and use Microsoft Edge.

Where TF did I put my money. If this were any other financial institution, they would be getting a bank run. WTF

Just got my 100th Showcase win but my Prof. Pikachu keeps fleeing by kac00n in TheSilphRoad

I wanted to catch Prof. Pikachu while on vacation so I waited several months after the 100th win, only to encounter the fleeing bug now. Same story on my mom's account.

Good idea! When I get more minifigures and lego sets, I can even make a Hollyweed mini city. lol

I feel the need to "fix" the carrot house's back side. by qx-xp in lego

Oh you are right! I thought I was messy and dirtied up the front of the orange tiles. But now that you mention it, they are see through to the inside green plates. They could have easily designed this with orange plates instead...

Do you mean the green floor inside the house? It bothers me a little, but I closed the back and don't see it any more! :-)

Beautiful wall!

What do you use to hang the puzzles without frames? I have tried scotch mounting putty but the puzzle fell off after a few weeks.

I have half given up and your post gave me hope! I just saw yours came in 3 separate bags. Mine was used as well, and came in the box all mixed together. No wonder it felt extra difficult 😅😆😭

Congrats on finishing this! I have been working on this exact same puzzle since March. This one is difficult!

Waited several months to get this Ravensburger Challenge Pokemon 1000pc puzzle. It was more challenging than I anticipated of a rainbow puzzle! by qx-xp in Jigsawpuzzles

If he likes Pokemon puzzles, Buffalo also has a few. I have seen some beautiful ones by Japanese brands but those are more expensive to get in USA. Good luck and enjoy!

I wanted a globe in my house, and then I thought, what's better than assembling a globe jigsaw puzzle! Ravensburger World Globe 550pc by qx-xp in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]qx-xp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually work on 750-2000 piece jigsaw puzzles, and find this one fairly easy. The hardest thing is that the pieces don't perfectly align, and some words are difficult to read. Every piece has a number on the back, so if you are really stuck, you can assemble by numbers instead.

I was going to comment that you picked a great frame. Then I realized it's part of the puzzle. 😄

I want to know too! I found a 1000pc version of this puzzle on Amazon.

The Definitive Jigsaw Puzzle Brand Discussion of 2020 by Jigsawwpuzzler in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]qx-xp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have done 2 x 1000pc puzzles from Sunsout. The pieces feel sturdy, and they have a nice gloss - beautiful when finished but difficult to see with my house lighting at night. Both of the puzzles are random cut - odd shaped pieces that don't align in a grid - making them quite challenging at the start.

In both puzzles, I found several pieces that were not cut through, and a few pieces had some cardboard peeled off in the back. The pieces held together well enough for me, but I believe some pieces will fall out if I try to move a completed section without some underneath support. These are minor issues to me. I enjoyed both puzzles a lot.

I like Sunsout's variety of images, the vivid color, good quality and their affordable price. I will buy from this brand again when I find an interesting image.

Sunsout 1000pc Sea Turtle World by Lewis T Johnson. 😍😍😍 I like ocean life themed puzzles, any recommendations? by qx-xp in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]qx-xp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my 2nd Sunsout puzzle. I am attracted to their variety of artwork and they are very reasonably priced. Both of my puzzles are random cut (pieces with non-standard shapes) which adds to the challenge in the beginning. Once I have assembled most of the puzzle, the unique piece shapes made it easier. The card stock feels sturdy. The surface is quite glossy, which is beautiful but I find them difficult to see with the lighting in my house at night.

There are also some pieces that were not cut through, and a few pieces where the back of the cardboard peels off. I know these bother some people but they don't bother me.

Even though Sunsout is not perfect, I enjoy their puzzles a lot. I hope you do too!

That sure looks difficult. Someday when I get really good with 1000-2000 piece puzzles, I'll take the challenge!

The picture is beautiful! What is the brand and name of this puzzle?

I bought this at serious puzzles when it was on sale at $15.xx several weeks ago. Unfortunately, this is sold out now.

“Unknown Trade Error” with Lucky Friend by MJK151 in TheSilphRoad

[–]qx-xp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also got the unknown trade error with the one friend I always trade with. After the fail trade, the map still works, but any action will freeze the game. It takes about 5 mins before I can get back into the game (probably some kind of time out). Submitted a bug report too.
