Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

Had to get a new external HDD yesterday as my usual one was full. 4TB (pre-formatted for Mac with USB-C) from WD for 119 plus tax. No wait at Worst Buy.

Makes editing a touch faster as it  reads and writes at higher speeds. I also show three metric fuck tons of photos Saturday. Boxing is brutal on a shutter.

I am going through a bunch of my old PC stuff and getting rid of it finally.I had no idea some of the stuff I have is selling for what it is now days. I have a older MSI K8n Neo4 motherboard with a AMD 3200 processor I listed this stuff for pretty cheap then researched what they are going for after I listed it on a by,sale app..Wish I would have researched first because evidently its sought after by folks nowdays.lol Also I listed my old BFG GeForce 7800 GT OC ..

Here is some links of what I'm talking about.

If they keep going that route, threaten to contact the local media. I'm sure at least one news station would want to cover this. Also, if you haven't yet, are you able to find examples within 500 miles that are keeping with this higher cost? Can they prove where their figures are coming from? Cause I'd love to see them prove that.

 

Sorry for the ankle grabbing they are giving you man.

There are no direct comparable options in the small surrounding radius.  That is what they are going to lean on and default to basic BS old settings drastically devaluing my car.

It moved about 40 miles SE and wreaked havoc on a small farming community.

That makes the vehicle unique, rare even, and it should increase the value.

Exactly, and I showed they why.  But they are choosing to disregard.

Tell them to replace it then.  You don't want a check.

 

Is it your insurance or the other guys?

Search nationwide and find 3-5 examples that you would accept and then ask them to deliver the car to you.  If you don't agree to their nonsense they will step up.

I can tell you I would have had a check within 48hours with Travelers.  Last time, they hand delivered it.

Find the one you want to buy and tell them to write that dealer a check.

Hey guys, I know I've asked before but I still need a solid reference for brakes on the 550xi.  I'm not looking for the cheapest anymore but I need them ASAP and for it to not be wrong.

 

I've ordered >3 times from different places now and had the wrong parts sent 2 times.... so I'm over trying to save a buck.  I just need reputable CS so I get the right parts.

 

It seems no one has the right kit for a 2011 550xi for under $800 that i can actually buy.

Whoever you guys recommend this time I'm just going to go with, or else whoever pays google for ads will get my $$$.

R2, I also wanted to pick your brain.  I haven't had a penny to shoot and had to sell some equipment but now I have steady income and maybe a full reloading set up and some crazy smithing equipment just down the road from me.  He just wants to play with whatever I buy as payment to use his equipment until I buy a Dillon machine or similar.

 

I was looking for a forum/resource center to choose a reliable magnum cartridge that I could reload.  Trying to take it in passively via YouTube or audio is not working.

Zeckhausen racing is where I usually got mine for the Bm'ers.

Centric rotors are fine.  Used to use EBC pads from there, but now it seems he carries Hawk and Porterfield which I know nothing about.  Personally I would look for a lower dust option...

Hawk makes GREAT pads, just be sure you get a street pad!  

 

Have you checked Rock Auto?  They usually have Power Stop kits available.

The regional manager is re-doing my case.  I showed him the closest comparable was Wisconsin.  Haha
