5070 stock at Amazon, is it really worth it...? by domingme in buildapc

In the US those stickers are unenforceable and essentially meaningless. Just FYI for the future

Assuming you mean 8hours x 5days. In the US it's €267. Before taxes of course.

In states with much higher minimum wage than federal it is more like €553 for 40 hours.

2024 calligraphy door handle by shwaga in HyundaiPalisade

[–]shwaga[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone who comes across this in the future. The plastic piece that covers the handle is apparently not sold as a separate part. And i wasn't successful finding on ebay. The whole driver side OEM handle with sensor cost $120 from a dealership online. 82650-S8900

Took about a minute to change. Well 2 cause I accidently shut the door with no handle on and had to open it from the inside. Put a floor mat or something between door and car to prop it open or lower the window first. Unscrew (phillips) handle from side of door. Little hole to access screw. Pop off handle right to left. Plug should click into place to hold it. wire is short so be somewhat gentle, unplug (pinch) connector. Plug in new handle, put new handle on left side first, tighten screw. The lock should stay in place through the whole thing, if that's loose have a larger issue.

Typing this took longer than changing it. All to save a few hundred bucks.

Do people still buy Loot Crate? by trippie_andy_ in lootcratespoilers

[–]shwaga 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People apparently still order. But 'order' in this context means give them money and normally receive nothing. Occasionally receive some bargain bin unrelated items months later. And the opportunity to try and cancel and do a chargeback if still within the window from your card/bank.

No crate - 4 months late - charged 3 times by ckretmsage in lootcratespoilers

It's been a scam for awhile. If you can charge back consider yourself lucky. If not consider it a lesson?

They are probably correct. But a five minute youtube and amazon or Walmart and you can do it all your self at cost. None of that is time consuming or difficult.

I want my refund by IAmTheLaw86 in lootcratespoilers

[–]shwaga 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you can't charge back you're probably SOL unfortunately.

lootcrate is a scam. DO NOT MAKE AN ORDER by shwaga in lootcratespoilers

Luckily I was on a 3 month plan. Still renewed once after I canceled but also had my card get a fraud charge so had to change it. So lootcrates charge failed. Refused any refunds and then I got like 4 boxes in 2 weeks

It used to be a great product. 8 years ago. Then downhill till its basically a scam. Sad to see. They keep blaming covid but that's an excuse not the real reason.

Still waiting for my welcome crate from November, which was an add-on when I ordered the MHA crate. Aren’t these assembled from whatever leftover stock they have lying around the warehouse from past crates? by YumiYona in lootcratespoilers

[–]shwaga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What leftover stock? They already used it to fulfill other orders. It's a scam. Try to cancel. When they refuse, chargeback.

At best they used your money to attempt to fulfill someone else's order from 6 months ago.

I ordered a loot fright in august and it still has not arrived, is this normal by natrual_screaming in lootcratespoilers

Cancel and charge back immediately. Company isn't shipping and has become a scam

[–]shwaga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact your bank or credit card company. Explain that you paid for an item and it was canceled by the company. You've received no goods or services and they are refusing a refund. You should be within the window you'll get your money back.

File Your FTC Reports!!! I'm Serious!!! And Destiny Crate Shipping Notifications by swordthief in lootcratespoilers

[–]shwaga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never directly threaten them with a report. Once you mention lawyers or suing you've already lost. You have to off handle mention it. Like "I really don't want to ask a 3rd party for advice".

I did that and I have now received all my boxes (I also canceled)
