Soadfan4ever Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Waaaaaaaaay too many questions! I usually don't mind the newbie questions as we've all had them but it feels like there have been so many lately. There are entire threads dedicated to many of the questions asked. Makes me wish we could unleash hxckid on them and thin out the herd a little. 2 Quote

Maybe instead of a five post initiation period they should have to pass a test to post freely. Get tweny acronyms right, know the difference between long term holds and quick flips, know how to do a basic forum search. Brickpicker Boot Camp. 7 Quote

Alpinemaps Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Just wait it out. They'll contact you or not. Maybe in the future include a packing slip... I've never included a packing slip with anything I've sent. But, in all seriousness, you just completely opened my eyes to the reason why. (Okay, I include packing slips with BL orders, just not eBay orders). Quote

Alpinemaps Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 So the packing slip reason would be for? From betsy805's experience, docs fan suggested she include a packing slip, so if something comes back, you have a reminder of why you sent it out. I am SO confused. I just got a package returned as undeliverable from a buyer that I don't have record of buying from me since October. Can't find their order ANYWHERE in bricklink, can't find their payment anywhere in paypal, but I have a hard time believing I'd send two minifigures to someone who didn't buy them.....to an address that doesn't exist. What is happening to me?!! 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I cannot sleep!!! me neither! Lol I have an excuse. I'm on the west coast, and it's only closing in on 11. I can't even imagine what it might be like for either of you (I'm assuming you are east coast supergtp) Quote

TheOrcKing Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Here is a running complaint giving at least one good reason why I find Target so much better than Walmart; the price scanners.Once upon a shopping day, Walmart used to have a few good scanners located all over the store where one was somewhat nearby like right there close to the clearance aisle. Today most have been removed leaving only two throughout the entire place forcing me to either go to the center (which has currently been 'out of order' for almost a month now) or all the way over to fruits & vegetables which feels like working once every hour maybe.Compare that to Target where there is a price scanner at every corner. Shoot, you can find one across from another in some spots and lo & behold they all work! They even tell you if the item has any left in stock for the backroom (not a number though but still helpful). A big plus for me is mine has a price scanner right there beside the LEGO aisle and then another a few aisles down or up.Since on the subject, lately the Walmart store as a whole is feeling more like a notch above flea market level similar to how Kmart ended up going. Target on the other hand has been and continues to be nice, clean, and typically organized. Something I can't really say about Walmart anymore which seems to be more disheveled with each visit. Walmart is fine but I can't say the experience has been all too pleasant nowadays. Basically I go in quickly and head out the same manner. At Target I take my time, look about, talk with some of the staff, and eventually checkout. 4 Quote

First question: You see a NIB 10179 for sale priced at $1500. How many do you buy? ENNNNNNT wrong answer, search and try again. 5 Quote

So much so that I refuse to shop at walamrt unless for business, investment stuff. I refuse to buy anything personal thier. I just feel uncomfortable in their. It's weird I don't want to be in their. Target I lollygage at times. Walamrt hires the most trashy rude people ever too. 1 Quote

gregpj Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 There was a time that when you bought a video game, it actually included the content and the characters. Best complaint I've read in a while. I think the idea of cheap apps started this phenomenon personally .. When I see that little "Offers in-app purchases" text below the 0.99 price tag, I skip right over it. In the beginning it made some sense - only pay for features you want but all these games selling "gems" have taken it too far IMO. Quote
lazuli16 Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 When buying a new lego set on ebay and the person selling it didn't even bother to remove the clearance tag on it. No need to rub it in my face. Quote
hxckid88 Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 *There think this takes the cake for worst post by me. Looks like my 3 year old. Nephew typed it up. Sleep, where are you. 1 Quote
legodelorean Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 This isn't a complaint, but where did the brickpicker lego guy avatars go? I just realized they are gone. Quote
labfreak7 Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 That's ok. I have a masters degree and the auto correct function on my iPhone makes my grammar sound horrible lol. Quote
