Corvette Raw Fiberglass Floor Pans

I heard of the restaurants. A runza sandwich is similar to pyrizhky (meat pies) I get at some Ukrainian stores here. They're really good, man. I make something like that using lamb or venison.

You are right, Tom. They do make the best pressure cooked chicken. Kennedy Fried Chicken and Crown Fried Chicken (same owners) started out on Flatbush Avenue, in Brooklyn. There are a half dozen Kennedy/Crown Fried chicken joints within walking distance near me. A great local place for burgers around here is Jackson Hole. Tom and Richard might know of it. There's one in N.J. and a couple in the city itself.

Try Model Master 4673 Acryl Wood. -
Sorry. Maybe this will help: Today I saw Terrence the 39 y.o dog walker from Oregon stop for a kale smoothie. So slathered him in Alpo & released a starving pitbull.

Global Alien Oreo Conspiracy Theory
SfanGoch replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Hey, whoa, hey! Mr. Agent G., are you attempting to spread falsehoods and disinformation in order to further the aims of cookie manufacturers with that statement? Cops don't eat cookies! It's a historically mockumented fact, going back to translated cuneiform logbooks unearthed in the remains of a police station in the Early Bronze Age city of Ur. This object was determined to be a take-out order written by Shulgi, patrol supervisor of the Second Shift at the Larsa sub-precinct. Even the shape pays homage to the holy doughnut. There isn't a hole because doughnut holes weren't invented until the reign of Nubuchadnezzar II of Babylon in the 16th century B.C. Why, if you'd bother to read the third line from the top in the middle column, you'll note an order for a dozen coconut creme doughnuts, four regular coffees (no sugar) and two lights with two sugars. So. in closing, I just want to reiterate that I don't have a damm clue as to what my point is. You're welcome. -
I go local for fast food. Dirty water dogs or, going to Papaya King If I want Mexican, I go to a real Mexican take-out joint operated by real Mexicans. For burgers, I prefer Jimbo's Hamburger Palace or Mega-Bites Diner over Mickey D's or Burger King. I don't do chain store pizza because it's not real pizza. Real pizza doesn't exist west of Philly. You guys living west of there are stuck with ketchup and shredded processed cheese on cardboard. If I want a hero, I'll head to Defonte's in Red Hook and get a Nicky Special (ham, capicola, salami, fried eggplant,provolone, hot salad, marinated mushrooms, lettuce,tomato, oil and vinegar).

Scott, it all boils down to this: You are a figment of your own imagination. Regular, chocolate or peanut butter Oreos? -
I dunno. This requires further investigation. I'll have to hit one of the pretentious hipster lounges in the neighborhood to see if any of the pasty-skinned Zoes or Stephonicas are using it and if it withstands repeated abuse from grasping bottles of locally brewed, artisanally curated and handcrafted, small batch Gowanus Canal Pale Ale.

From what I've seen looking through the ads, these nail polishes come with a clear top coat to prevent chipping. So, it probably doesn't stand up well to handling on its own.

Revell H-1260 1/25 '57 Chevy Nomad, circa 1969 It ain't so bad a kit. -
Pretty much done with resin.

Nothing wrong with complaining, Chris. Everyone does it at one time or another. If the guy wants to be a jerk, treat him as such and let everyone else know as much. If you end up chalking this as a loss, look at the bright side. After everyone else reads about him and his lack of integrity, he might as well tie a toe tag on his business. It's dead. -

I'm waiting for that, too. There will be a lot of angry people selling on eBay when that happens. -

What I wrote has nothing to do with you at all. I wasn't referring to your postings as a sob story. That's how his correspondence to you comes across. I was telling you not to allow him to turn the situation around to where he appears to be a victim of circumstances. You need to take control of the narrative. You are the one who got "the business" in spades. He walks away with your money, plays victim and you end up with ugatz. That is the situation. That is the only thing I feel bad about. I personally don't care, and neither should you, about personal problems used as an excuse as to why I haven't gotten what I paid for. "Going through some rough times? Really? Gee, that's tough. I hope all turns out well, pal. IDGAFF. Is my stuff ready to be shipped?" You have problems? Simple. Shut down your side job, stop taking people's money if you have no intention to fulfill orders in a timely manner and don't reopen until you get your head straight. I've never dealt with this bum (only a bum would take payment for goods/services with no intention of fulfilling his end of a contract) and he's pissing me off, man. Cashing that M.O. and not sending those items was absolutely unethical and criminal in nature. That's theft. The fact that he would raise the question of whether you paid for the stuff sucks even more. It's like when you loan someone money on the promise of getting it back "soon". "Soon" turns into a real, long time. You don't want to ask for your money because you don't want to offend the guy. That's what he is banking on. Then, when you have decided enough is enough and confront that individual, he feigns being offended because you are questioning his integrity and then starts laying on with sob stories to make you feel bad for trying to get back your own money. Don't fall for any of it. I probably come across as a cold hearted a-hole; but, you know what, that's the way real life is. -

Chris, your story doesn't mean a thing in the sense that you haven't received any satisfactory result from your dealings with Mark Johnson. All he's doing is blowing smoke up your patootie. I always make sure to keep copies of any M.O.'s, if that was the only payment option, just because something like this could happen. I've experienced the "I never received your payment" spiel. It takes very little time and effort to find out if that was the case, especially if you purchased a USPS M.O. USPS M.O.'s are the best and safest; additionally, you don't have to pay a search fee required by some privately owned financial institutions. Plus, there's nothing worse than screwing with the government when it comes to money. Yeah, he stated was getting burned out with the casting hobby, blah, blah, blah. Gee, that's too friggin' bad. You should have thought about that before accepting further orders. That doesn't excuse him from fulfilling outstanding orders, or refunding the money if he can't/won't. It's one or the other, Chief. There's no middle ground in that equation. Remember the line (paraphrased) from "Goodfellas", "Don't have my stuff? Ef you, pay me!" That's the attitude you need. Don't listen to sob stories or other tearjerking pleas for understanding some useless stronzo's predicament. He had no problem accepting your money under those circumstances. Don't give anybody the advantage by letting them turn the tables on you and make it look like they're the victim. In my neck of the woods, that'd earn you a pair of broken kneecaps, at the very least, if you attempted to run that B.S. on a shylock who loaned you money in good faith. PayPal is great; but, paying via a bank issued credit/debit card straight up is better insofar that you have a lot more time in which to file a dispute. If enough disputes are filed by card users against a particular vendor/retailer, the card issuers will revoke his ability to process credit/debit transactions and effectively shut him down. He might even be prosecuted for credit/mail fraud. Money and principle are not mutually exclusive of each other. That's what commerce is based on. -

You have 45 days from date of purchase to file a dispute with PayPal. Any vendor who has an extremely long wait time for his products shouldn't charge for the product until it's ready for shipping and should provide a tracking number as soon as it is shipped. PayPal-affiliated vendors know about the time limit. They also know what the consequences are if PayPal agrees with the purchaser. Don't pay for anything with a M.O. unless you intend on maintaining the receipt for your records. That means for at least five years. If keeping paper records is too much of an inconvenience, use plastic. P.S. I don't conduct business with any company whose owner doesn't consider it a full time job. If you can't devote 100% of your attention to your business, you're not serious enough to get my money. -

SfanGoch replied to cobraman's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
All fine and dandy, Chris. You neglected to mention one thing. Do you still have a receipt stub from that money order? That is proof of payment. You could contact the money order issuer, give them the M.O. number and they can inform you when it was cashed. Otherwise. you're wasting time with this story. If you hadn't received the goods that you paid for, the most important thing to have is that receipt. You should have secured it so you would have proof. If you didn't keep it, you're screwed. Your word against his. That's the way things roll. Telling us doesn't mean a thing. -

They haven't been able to satisfactorily explain why the Earth's temperature during the Roman and Medieval periods was 3.6° warmer than in the present. Radioisotope dating ice and tree ring growth data prove that. No lights, no motor cars Not a single factory burning hydrocarbons Like we do today. The image in that Oreo resembles George Washington which proves, without any doubt, that today is Saturday.
