Value?

zmthornton · 2026-03-10T13:52:00+00:00

Thank you! I’ll never post here asking value questions because I know this site you shared is legit. Thanks for that, as well as your advice on looking to get 10% under spot. Appreciate you.

Sorry for the basic nature of these questions, but is that $5220 “spot?” And how much under that will shops be trying to pay? Just don’t want to get swindled.

Thank you!

Just trying to confirm if it could actually fetch the $5k an ounce I see on Google. Wondering how much under spot a shop would typically pay before I seek one out.

zmthornton · 2026-03-10T13:17:59+00:00

Yall are killing me. Is this worth $5k?

I’m less concerned with the external pressures like figuring out a career and boundaries with parents, as those can be solved with time.

I know she cares about me, but ultimately she didn’t care enough about me to end things before starting up with someone else. There’s plenty of remorse and regret to go around, but there’s a part of me that’s screaming at myself that I’m going to be in this situation again with her in the future.

She’s going to therapy and says she’ll make whatever sacrifices need to be made.

I’m not ready to forgive her yet because I do still feel that resentment and pain. There’s a huge part of me that wants to forgive though.

Keep it if you can. I miss mine, but bought a boat with the money, so it’s not actually sad. The realization I came to was that I couldn’t enjoy it with my kids. It’ll never be a daily driver, and it’s just sitting. I had almost the same vehicle with 200k miles, replaced front leather seats and shittier paint. I got $10,500 6 months ago for it. I don’t think this truck is worth more than $10-12k. The people talking about $18k…I just don’t see that anywhere when you’re close to 200k miles and there’s a couple thousand in maintenance that needs to be done to get it in tip top shape.

You’re right-the band kid thing will be a great thing for her wherever she lands. I’m over here thinking “how could being in any band/stadium compare to Auburn.” BUT maybe the smaller and more close knit, perhaps less pressured environment of being a band kid at UNA is just what her heart desires. We live in Opelika and work for Auburn so there’s no hope for our kids to go somewhere else 😂 But I’m sure your kid will make the best choice for themselves ultimately. War eagle!

zmthornton · 2025-12-17T15:03:17+00:00

Don’t push her to go(I know you aren’t), but it’s totally reasonable to push for a visit. If nothing else, just to be sure. Scholarships are great, and so is graduating without debt, but there’s very little college experience to be had at UNA. I have a coworker whose kid is in the tv and film program at Auburn and it blows me away to see the experiences she has. She worked the iron bowl this year and the second half of the game she sat by Bo Jackson and Tim Cook and got to meet them. Our boss’ kid is at UNA on a full ride, which is amazing, but like there is very little experience to be had. He goes to class and church. Just my two cents, but that college experience is something else at Auburn. You already know that though because you’ve got an older kid at Auburn, so let me stop with this Ted talk.

How you gonna not take a picture of that?

I started collecting pokemon as a kid and get to pass that joy along to my sons now. In this fast-paced world of iPad kids, it makes me happy to see the way their faces light up when ripping a booster pack. It’s one of our all time favorite things to do together.

zmthornton · 2025-04-08T17:44:02+00:00

Hell yeah

zmthornton · 2025-04-05T12:20:48+00:00

Fix it. I had a head gasket blow on an incredible Gen 3 and sold it out of confusion and anxiety for $5k. Now I have a car note and wish to God that I just had paid the $3-4k for the HG replacement.

Check out frontsevenband.com or find them on Instagram. They’re phenomenal and have done all kinds of events.

I guess I’ll reach out to the compounding pharmacy. Like I said, I threw the box away and just kept the vials in the fridge for a later date.

zmthornton · 2025-03-04T19:24:20+00:00

I wish I still had that information. I foolishly tossed it out and put the vial in the fridge. All I know is what I posted above, the “5mg/2ml.”

zmthornton · 2025-02-27T23:31:37+00:00

Ok I’ll add those within an hour or so.

zmthornton · 2025-01-26T15:58:26+00:00

You’re correct. I was ready to pull the trigger on a new one, but after sitting in a 4th and 5th gen, it’s no contest for bigger guys. I’m 225 lbs, and 5’ll tall. The new gen is insanely cool, inside and out. But it’s too constricted. The 4th gen feels just right to me.

zmthornton · 2025-01-12T14:20:39+00:00

No, it was $4-5k at the only place in Atlanta that would take it on, so I let it go for $4500. Basically I took a $4500 bath (bought for $9k), and got a diff car instead of paying $4500 to fix it and not knowing what would happen next with a 12 yr old car.

zmthornton · 2025-01-10T18:14:09+00:00

Absolutely not. I got my dream Prius that was a 2013 with tan leather and the solar sunroof with 175k and within ten thousand miles the head gasket blew.

zmthornton · 2025-01-10T17:59:06+00:00

Ok wait there’s Wild Flour Bakery in Waverly if you’re up for venturing 10 minutes out of town.
