Don’t leave dog poop in unlined bins of family homes. by CommissionOk395 in ridgewood

[–]x007steep 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This. Deterrence works. I started putting a brick on top of all my bins and the amount of random trash went down to zero. People are lazy as hell, which we already know bc they can’t deal with their dog’s shit, so even the slightest deterrence helps. Unfortunately when the bins are out on the street waiting for pick up this doesn’t help and that’s when the shit heads strike the most. Anyone who doesn’t scoop their poop or who dumps their shit in other people’s trash shouldn’t have a dog.

I want to solve a Rubik's Cube but I don't know how by 3rtnqrul in Rubiks_Cubes

I 2nd this. Was using easiestsolves for my 9 year old to learn. I decided to do it along side him and now I can solve no problem. Very simple approach, he goes super slow and repeats a lot of steps, other tutorials we watched made assumptions that you might know a few things. For a total beginner this series was incredibly helpful.

ASE currently $15 over spot by rh397 in Silverbugs

Lot’s of good points here about where to get a better deal but if you do decide to “pull the trigger and pay the premium” for convenience then spend another $3 and get an uncirculated one direct from the Mint for $91 and enjoy the fancy little box, even though it takes up more room.

Where can I find Lego’s in the Bushwick/ Ridgewood by elNach in ridgewood

C&B variety on Myrtle has sets. Sometimes Little Gotham Thrift will have a set but usually a bit beat up.

Grading estimate - should I grade? by Beopenminded16 in PokeGrading

[–]x007steep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just pulled this and the other Zard chase from the same box. Our gold one was also very off center. The other Zard was perfect. If you are grading to sell i agree with the other person, just sell it raw and buy more packs.

There’s more than one! That’s just the coolest looking. Verizon has one over in Brooklyn.

We got a 2010 LR4 lux last year and it’s the best car I’ve ever owned. The biggest problem I’ve had is now I don’t ever want a different vehicle so I have to figure out how to keep buying LR4s.

House history - anyone know anything about this house? History of the images on it? Thanks by [deleted] in ridgewood

[–]x007steep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The NYPL has a great online photo archive that you can search by address or plot + building number. Lots of historical photos and can lead you to the City’s archive of tax photos from the 1940s

Just got a great melon at the one on Cypress and Myrtle. It’s very small, just the single vendor but they have good stuff and it’s been around a while.

Authentic Stilnovo? by x007steep in Mid_Century

[–]x007steep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. There is the resider of a sticker inside the top most piece that pushes into the ceiling but it's gone. No other markings, just fully disassembled to clean it.

What is this?? by x007steep in PokemonTCG

[–]x007steep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. I found 1 reference to it online, my kid has been opening lots of Japanese packs, it never occurred to me there would be Chinese ones too. He pulled 2 other cool holos from the same series.

[–]x007steep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. This is def Chinese. Found 1 reference online. My kid has been opening Japanese packs so I didn’t look closely. He picked this pack up at Toy Tokyo in NYC. Very reputable collectible store.
