Congrats to Buffy and the winner!

Very nice. I like it alot.

Wow I can't find anything to improve on. Great job.

Just at people's ignorance. Hmm tired of feeling lonely? I like solitude, myself. I like the quiet, the uninterruptedness, the calm.

I'm thinking my Sunday is ruined yet again by the knowledge that I have to go to work again tomorrow

I like this thread. Ive come back to it several times. It's kinda therapeutic. I'm pissed right now. That is all.

Nothing is real. Places on YP don't exist anymore. Barnes and Noble has never heard of having a section on the hobby of book collecting. They have never heard of a guide to first editions.

Oh man. This just gets better. I just opened the box when I got home from work. This listing was for a set of first edition/early print books from the 40s and 50s from a single author. There were 10 books in the lot. Four were described in the listing as first prints, which is what I am collecting. One of the titles described as first print in the listing is in fact not a first print, and it happens to be the one title that made me buy the lot to start with. Do I leave neutral feedback stating I didn't get the item as described, or contact the seller....there really no way to reconcile because first prints of this title are non existent. Which is why I thought this "first printing, poor quality, reading copy" might be legit because, the seller said it was. It would stand to reason that if one were in this lot, it would likely be in poor quality which is fine with me. No I didn't ask for supplemental photos beforehand, why would I, if the seller is trustworthy? Now what? Edited to add: I'm pretty sure the seller knew it was not a first print because there were photos of two of the other three first print books' copyright pages, indicating she had the wherewithal to show the proof of first printing. Damn me and my trusting nature.

Believe it... Or not. The item from slow shipper #1, it delivered today, on THE last estimated day of shipping determined by eBay which was based on the day the label was printed. THAT means an automatic 5 star rating for shipping! Ugh! So it delivered 'on time' technically and Im happy about that. But personally, the uncertainty around the label printing and when it ships, and all that.... I would have deducted at least one star for that. I think it's lucky that it delivered on time actually. Just one delay at the hub facility could have made the difference of a day or more. But anyways, that'll teach me a lesson in patience!

Not a thing wrong with that. I need a lesson in how to think that way.

I'm leaning more and more towards the neutral feedback, only mentioning the long handling time and going over by a couple of days. I'll wait until delivery and see how I feel. I want to point out that the shipping method is media mail in both cases. One is sitting in an Internet-labelled black hole, Bell Gardens. And the other is in the other Internet-labelled black hole, jersey city. Im right in the middle. I'm hoping the packages get moved out soon cuz I've read some horror stories online about them. Also, I intend to request a different shipping class on any future book orders.

My brother got the 8 bit Mario amiibo. Is it hard to find?

Are you guys buying games on disc or downloading them (not only Mario Maker but Wii U games in general)?

And add to it a game pad versus a classic controller, and it just feels off a little bit. When I play Mario, I need those simple controls on a tiny controller. I have to admit haven't even played some of the more recent Marios, so II am at a disadvantage when those newer mechanics are needed.

Some of the most difficult levels I've played in SMB had no enemies at all but I died 100 times trying to time a series of jumps just right.

I think with this game it is really easy to make levels way too hard to beat. And personally, I think spamming enemies is a drawback to a level's fun factor. There's a difference between fun difficulty and troll difficulty.
