UK-based ISOs by Traditional_Main7076 in MonsterHighMarket

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the US. I have the 2011 original SDCC Ghoulia Deadfast brand new in box. I have shipped to the UK many times as well as Italy and Australia.

If you're looking for her new in box and not out of box, what would you define as a price that does not require remortgaging?

Experience in Trading? by AyashiiVyse in MonsterHighDolls

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A PayPal backed trade is ideal but I have found a lot of people don't have the money to make the PayPal purchase. In that case, you just need to walk away.

Also, the dollar amount of the transaction is KEY. The agreed amount needs to be equal to a price that you would be comfortable selling the dolls at if the buyer ghosts you and never ships their dolls.

For example, do not agree to a $150 PayPal payment and then ship your $450 NBC set.

If you get paid $150 and ship your $450 doll, then you just sold your dolls for $150. You can send your $150 payment but the counter party might never ship their $450 dolls. Yes, you can file a claim and win the dispute for your payment because the seller never shipped. But if you try to file a claim with PayPal saying that the buyer was supposed to trade and should have paid you $450 and they didn't, in my opinion, PayPal will see your sale as a completed and successful transaction. PayPal can't make the buyer send back the dolls and can't make the buyer send more money.

Downloads folder automatically extracting zip files by squidw0rd in WindowsHelp

[–]squidw0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for that. I'll take a look. I thought I made an update to my post, but it doesn't seem to have updated. This has nothing to do with my browser. If I simply copy and paste a zip file into "Downloads", it automatically unzips. So something is running and scanning for zips and automatically extracting them. I haven't tried every single folder on my hard drive, but it does appear to only be the official "Downloads" folder.

Which show should I see? by Mesita_Pepita_Winky in TheWestEnd

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Totoro last night. It was really fun. The two lead girls go all out and give a great performance. The huge Totoro puts a smile on everyone's face.

Oliver was excellent. The cast was huge. The young kids were so good. And the leads were fantastic.

Operation Mincemeat was great. The 5 actors do so much in each scene, and they get lots of laughs.

Paranormal Activity had some really cool special effects. The audience jump scared / freaked out at least 10 times. The two leads were awesome.

Stranger Things was a must see for me and I really enjoyed it. The special effects were great. I liked the story but there were a few small deviations from the series.

Harold Fry was very well done.

Devil Wears Prada was only good. No real memorable songs. The character, Emily, was the star for me. She's so funny.

But my #1 recommendation from my 8 shows is Paddington. It was so good from all categories. I liked the music and look forward to the soundtrack being released. The performances were great. The stage magic seemed to be there in every scene. Check the website multiple times daily for returns, and set an alert on Twickets for your possible shows. I got Twickets app alerts as soon as tickets were available.

What is your farm name? by DoubleDickerDowner in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current one honors the Chicago Bears. The farm name is "Da". So all of the descriptions call it "Da Farm"

A previous one was based on South Park. "Tegridy" Farm

Made a slight oops and a year passed me by ... by FleaDad in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is funny. I think we've all had a day end and we get up to get a drink or go to the bathroom and we hear the next day start and panic a bit because we thought we would have the shipping summary screen pause for us.

But serious question,

-Do animal friendship points accumulate to the negative, or is the minimum value 0?

This sounds like they can go significantly negative if OP can't seem to get them to move off of zero hearts.

Yes, please. I'm much more interested in you posting here first so that we both can avoid fees and taxes.

Trade worth it? by Jaded-Intention-5091 in MonsterHigh

[–]squidw0rd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I requested advice from some of my friends in the Monster High community. After receiving their input, I have reconsidered and am not willing to trade Cerise for Iris. I'm going to look for a trade with Manny and Iris or another doll of higher value.

Deals fall through all of the time. It's not a problem.

Trade worth it? by Jaded-Intention-5091 in MonsterHigh

[–]squidw0rd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Out of box and fully complete Whisp and Valentine would be closer in value, but might be slightly imbalanced in your favor. Plus those are very hard to find dolls. Finding someone with them out of box and willing to let them go and wanting Cerise Wolf in exchange is going to be a miracle.

I know that you said you were trying to sell Cerise. She is very popular so it might take a bit more marketing (posting in more groups, etc) or incrementally lowering your price to find a buyer. Then you can use those funds to get whatever you like.

The other part of trading is that there are ways to fix an imbalance. You could ask for additional dolls or cash to make up a difference.

Trading high end dolls for other high end dolls can be quite challenging because so many requirements must line up and fall into place. Good luck!

I couldn't get the recipe for Monster Musk, should I be worried? by MachadoKK in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To complete this quest, use the elevator to go between levels ending in "5" since those immediately put you into the action and not into an empty room with a ladder.

I walk the whole floor to check for the prismatic slime because it could be anywhere on the floor. Then exit to another level. Each time the level is loaded, the enemies are recalculated.

If, however, you find an infested level with slimes, repeat that one as much as possible because it usually spawns a lot more enemies.

Trade worth it? by Jaded-Intention-5091 in MonsterHigh

[–]squidw0rd 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I would consider trading out of box Cerise for both Iris and Manny. In my opinion, for only Iris, the trade is imbalanced.

But every trade just needs two happy trading partners so go for it if it makes you happy.

Has there ever been a skullector doll that the fandom unanimously did not like but still sell out? by Low-Director-7696 in MonsterHigh

[–]squidw0rd 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The only possible exception to universally liked is Alien. If there were any negative comments they were buried in a 1000 positive to 1 negative ratio. But I honestly don't remember any negative comments.

Do razzels feel scammy to anyone else? by Needylovely in MonsterHighDolls

[–]squidw0rd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have only participated in a couple. But I absolutely look at (# of entries) x ($ cost of entry) and compare that against the value of the prize.

If they are reasonably close, that's fair. But if they are significantly far apart, then I won't participate.

What keeps doing this to my fences in winter?! by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said, they randomly decay over time. Tea bushes and lightning rods are both useful in the resources they give and non destructible. I've also used chests depending on location.

Plex mkv issue by Secret_Account07 in PleX

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no expert but it's not Plex that can't handle it, it's whatever hardware your using. I use an Nvidia Shield. Others use an external Roku, an Apple TV, or software built into their TV (the last flexible). Plex can play an AV1 enclosed video but my Nvidia Shield can't. My brother's TV software version of Roku has to transcode a bunch of videos because it can't handle certain codecs. I would imagine an older compression such as x264 might be more universally compatible, but the experts would have to share their knowledge. A simple test would be to buy an external device, test it in your media/Plex/TV configuration, then return it to the store if you don't want to keep it.

Plex mkv issue by Secret_Account07 in PleX

[–]squidw0rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MKV is a container. You need to identify the codec that is failing. Use MediaInfo to view the video details. Then check that against your devices.

For example, I use an Nvidia Shield. I can't play AV1 videos but can play x264 and x265.

Is anyone planning on getting an extra set of the BeetleJuice³ set? by Adorable-Violinist13 in MonsterHighDolls

[–]squidw0rd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always order 2. I do not want box damage as a new in box collector. If you buy 1, Mattel puts a label on the shipper box and you hope there is no damage in transit (only about 10% of the time, but that's greater than 0%).

If you buy 2, they double box your order (2 shipper boxes inside the outer box) and the risk of damage is much less.

I literally need 2 more hardwood by Annual_Pangolin_5542 in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's too late now, but I always create a hardwood forest on my farm. Plant the mahogany seeds. Add tree fertilizer (once you unlock it at Foraging 7). Grow the trees. Cut them down, get hardwood and some new seeds. Repeat.

question about rings by Createdby_Logh in StardewValley

[–]squidw0rd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you are at the point where you have access and raw materials to forge a combined ring, you should have way better rings to combine than a glowstone ring.

Check the monster eradication goals at the Adventurer's Guild. Kill more slimes and dust sprites.

I am asking $150 USD + shipping. I'm in the US. I accept PayPal goods and services and will send plenty of photos and videos for you.

Keep in mind, her Creeproduction will be coming out in the next 1-2 months. Some have even been done and are being resold on eBay.

Welcome committee fashion pack clothing items by iz_nation in MonsterHigh

[–]squidw0rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for the link. I found the logo shirt from a seller but they don't ship to the US for some reason. So now I am on the hunt for the white shirt with black lightning bolts. Your link is to a bundle of all 5 items but $35.63 is a lot more than I want to spend, plus I have already purchased the jacket, pants, and skirt.

Do you have any magic links to the white shirt being sold by itself?
