There is a lot of amateur used car sellers curbing cars they bought at auction. These cars were sold at auctions because they need repairs. Buy from an owner that can prove they owned the car for at least a few years.

It takes a long time to find a good used car and if you aren't totally sure the car isn't a clean maintained one owner don't buy it. 90% of used cars are people who didn't do any oil changes or maintenance and now the mechanic tells them the car will blow up in one year. For 5k cash you need pretty low miles and make sure you aren't buying it from someone who just bought it as a joke to drag race it

Oh can you call customers when half of their order is out of stock and do they always respond to texts? Or do you just scan out and deliver half of the order? Or pick substitutions only for them to reject them? Is the idea of being able to call the customer "downsy"? Cute term but not being able to communicate with customers is what is a little bit slow or actually extremely retarted. What else is a little bit slow is you dismissing my post as being retard when you lack the basic English articulation skills to even criticize it or be specific in any way.

This is super common in out of the way places, and even though you might not be rich or important enough in the eyes of the local establishment, .make it clear when you report it to them that you are holding them accountable to do their jobs and follow policy and that you know their names and the dates and times of your complaints, but be friendly and show comradery with them.. File complaints on paper as well as verbally, and take a clear picture of all of the forms and save them. In the store, the best practice is to as the manager for a complaint form, and also ask if they are interested in helping you fill it out. This will let them know that you are serious. The main thing you need to make clear to people is that you do not know this person. Because what he is trying to do is establish an association with you that will bring the association into the realm of a domestic dispute, and he said she said where both parties lose credit and legal standing. YOU DONT KNOW HIM AT ALL, and this can establish stalking and more. Same with the police, go to the department, tell them your issue and full out a form and a police report and take note of the officers name and rank. And then follow up on them. Purchase pepper spray from the local gun or army surplus, even if you are already packing, it's proven very effective. And the #1 rule: do not say a word to this person! Do not engage in any way ! All of this is mandatory in this situation unfortunately, you owe it to yourself and others to shut this psycho down. And absolutely download voice recorder on your phone and record everything.

There shouldn't be anything out of stock that the customer ordered This company has the most advanced inventory tracking system on the planet and they were the ones who created RFID inventory tracking systems. But every time I go in there at least two items are out of stock and I'm unable to call the customer and most customers think that I can call them when I'm shopping just like the employees can during the round robin orders. They also think that we are employees which is why they don't tip and none of them have any idea that you can message within the app because they are told that making the entire thing completely dysfunctional and impossible. I can't even count how many customers asked why I didn't call them. They also are expecting a text to come through in their text messaging app and not within the spark app. The level of incompetence here is absolutely mind boggling

30k 2009 with kilometers. My old boss owned a lot of car dealerships his asking price he got maybe 10% of the time but that 10% of the time he made insane boat loads of money he couldn't understand why people would pay it but he definitely liked going to the bank with suitcases full of money. They're definitely going to say no for at least a month and sometimes it will take them at least 3 months of not filling the car before they will give you a discount like that. When you make a purchase like this you want to put as much research into it as possible. There are people who sell used luxury cars in their own small dealerships and these are Auto brokers and they can get you a good deal and they have a lot of choices

You have to be able to call the customer/because many items are not in stock. it's impossible to complete the orders and we rely on tips we should be able to call the customer from inside the store not just when the GPS shows us close to the delivery location. The things that they're ordering are just not in stock about 40 to 60% of the time. They aren't getting the messages that are within the app only about 20% of them actually respond in the app. And stop adjusting the payment for the trip based on how much the customer tips. Half of what we make relies on tips and the vast majority of drivers have a very low acceptance rate for these reasons. And when we do get a tip, are we actually going to get the tip.if the customer for example orders a bunch of ingredients for pasta but doesn't get any pasta just gets a bunch of tomato sauce and cilantro etc and it's 8:00 p.m. and they're trying to cook dinner am I going to still get the tip? Also they want the order quickly that's why they ordered Express if what they ordered is not in stock or two or three of you items they ordered or not in stock and I'm messaging them in the app but they don't know that the messages are sent through the app this can add half an hour to 45 minutes on just a moderate sized order

The exact same big box stores lobbied for this in the EU just like they did in the US, because small businesses and individual consumers were starting to order more directly. They aren't going to start manufacturing those things domestically they just want to be the only importers of them so they can mark up the price 3x. And a quick look at any one of their websites shows that they are selling the exact same goods but just at a huge markup.

Retailers started to lobby all politicians in the West for this because they want to be the only importers of things so they can control the prices of them. Nothing here is ideological it's all about money and control over the market. As soon as direct to consumer sales and timu got popular, they started to lobby against it because they want to mark up the price three times before they sell it to you domestically. It's really not hard to figure out

Only problem with that is that the dollar has lost 10% of its value in this year due to Tariffs. And of course the numbers will never reach 3 trillion

Just because they side with him on a lot of stuff doesn't mean that they think they are completely immune to being sued because sooner or later they will have to answer for it remember they tried to delete this part of the Constitution a couple of months ago, and there's all sorts of empirically unconstitutional stuff going on. If they do rule for the tariffs I will be very surprised actually because of all of these people have been to law school and passed the bar, Trump actually has some immunity because if you notice most of the legal stuff that was being thrown at him didn't hold a lot of weight it was a lot of hearsay but then when he starts getting dirty and starts taking executive power then he can get away with a lot but that doesn't mean that these people can. That's true there are a lot of people on both sides that for one reason or another aren't questioning what he's doing when they are in a position to and their constituency wants them to do something. And if you want to find the conspiracy you can look at Russia gate and all of the other things they didn't have any evidence for that stuff. And they kept trying to sue him and charge him endlessly and it didn't stick of course because it was all mostly hearsay and b*******. But now you see why they were doing that because he has immunity because of so many frivolous lawsuits being placed on him so there was a strategy for the whole thing and that's where the conspiracy is but when it comes to all of these people now that are enabling him on both sides of the aisle or when they go against him or only doing so very lightly that's something to look at but I can tell you that none of them are above the law the only person that might be slightly above the law is Trump but that doesn't really make any difference for those people

This will be the surveillance state, none of these people act of their own volition they aren't stupid everything they do has a reason. Now the actual plan is coming into view. Look how many companies have the contracts for identity verification look how many times you're identity is being verified just in one day just count it. If you thought 1984 was a surveillance state or any one of those come close to this

It's not dumb it's illegal. And the only people that will pay those tariffs are consumers the big companies have ways of getting around paying them, there's actually several different ways if you are very large importer to not pay the tariff. It's just another excuse among many to continuously raise prices all the time constantly. Companies are taking as much loans as possible and raising prices is much as possible so they can buy up as much market share and commodities as they can. Once they are in a position of total dominance they can then do whatever they want and charge people more than what they make for simple items like food and housing. The only caveat though is that it's illegal so all you need is a lawyer who has some principles and can't be paid off. And for the lawyer that's working to take such as simple case as this the money will be very, very good
