The Big One
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Romell R's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I'm just setting here taking a small break from my one project and decided to check out the forum. Bout your issue, isn't that the way it always goes though with stuff? I mean after all the work you put into one thing to make it look good then something else comes along that fits. What you could do is switch the cabs around, use your original cab for on the other project so that way no work was lost really, just switch around. -
The Big One
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Romell R's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Your welcome man, well right now my buddy rig project is being work on slowly as he is still waiting on one company to get back to him as it's been like 3 weeks now and he has sent them afew messages and yet heard nothing back so he is kinda looking for another company that has the parts he's after. I for get what all the parts are that this one place had that he wanted. So right now the project is moving along slow and he is trying to get ahold of afew places in the mean time also as I'm working on the GL charger project and getting it done as it's very close from being finish, plus I'm working on afew other projects as well . His semi project is going to take some time to build though.. I also just realize it has been over a month sense I posted anything about it in my build thread on that project , you always welcome for my comments. -

MoparWoman Jamie replied to Romell R's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Rom, you got my attention now! I really like the look of the new piece you got from wheelman, to me it really pulls the whole rig togother very nicely. I know you have worked hard and all on the other cab and did alot of work on it as well but I think this new part would fit nice as well. It has that look of the sleeper and cab that ties in with the wrecker bed. But alittle suggestion if you go with it, might be to open the wheel wells up just a hair as those tires seems awful cramp up in the openings. -
What is with ebay?
MoparWoman Jamie replied to car lover 1996's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
People over on PayPal forums has been asking why the 21 Day period also and all the moderators over there can say is look in the users agreement. They don't know how to really answer a simple question at all. I talk to my bank also about a 21 day waiting and they said that is way to long. There is two other places starting to bloom now thanks to what eBay and PayPal are doing and has become there competition some what. If you want to know who they are just shoot me a message on here LOL. I hightly recommend Greggs eModel web site for model stuff though as like I said before at least he doesn't force us to just use PayPal or one of the online places. But sense back around I guess Dec 09 PayPal and eBay started this Hold Policy and that is why eBay looks like there are starting to go hay wired now all a sudden with crazy prices popping up. You are also correct that alot of people use to rely on PayPal before for the instant payments from selling stuff on eBay and shipping the goods out and sense what PayPal and eBay started to do. Also I heard from people that use PayPal yet and sells on eBay yet as well that just because PayPal state that when your print your own shipping labels off there site for an eBay item to be ship out. Watch your bank account as I heard PayPal will take payment for shipping out of your bank account and not your PayPal account for the shipping fee part that you just bought BUT they will reinburst you I guess 5 minutes later.. how mess up is that . But I think the whole eBay crazyness right now is due to what PayPal and eBay are doing though. -
What is with ebay?
MoparWoman Jamie replied to car lover 1996's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well what is probably the issue with the sellers on eBay and why you are starting to see less and less people doing auctions is because of what PayPal is doing now days with their own kind of scam! The 21 day Hold Funds Policy scam that is. A seller on eBay can list stuff to sell BUT when you the buyer take and pays that seller.. on your side you may think you have paid that seller but on the sellers side good chances are that PayPal are holding the money "back" from that seller and making that seller jump through certain hoops just in order to get their money that you sent them for the item. You all see, most of eBay sellers was slap with a 21 Day Hold Policy if people want to sell stuff on eBay and accept payment through PayPal (can also go through Paymate for on eBay as well now). What the seller has to do anymore to get payment through PayPal from eBay stuff is get Tracking #'s on all the items that ships out to the buyers and then upload it to PayPal. Then after the item arrives we have to wait even more time for PayPal to release "our" money to us! At times the seller has to call PayPal and remind them to release the money after we give them the tracking # again! Then at times poor sellers has to was 21 days+ for PayPal to release the funds if the buyer doesn't make an issue that is! PayPal states on there web site that if a eBay seller gets good feedback posted from the buyer that they will also release the funds (not true at all) and if you have over a 100 feedback you will not have a "hold place on your account" (again not true at all, as powersellers has been hit as well that has way over 1000's feedbacks). eBay and PayPal are now going off of 3 score cards for the sellers each quarter now.. plus one of the friends of one of the workers at PayPal just recently left something slip out about PayPal as well about them and eBay! If your a seller selling things on there your still not safe at all when getting paid for stuff you sell on eBay. I was shocked when I red what the woman posted. I think the new PayPal 21 Day Hold Funds Policy is what making eBay go crazy right now with crazy prices from what I am hearing about. It would all make sense.. Greggs eModel site would be a good place for model stuff though as at least he gives you choices about what kind of payment you can accept and doesn't just force you to use PayPal or some other online place for making payment only. I'm with his model site and also two other places. When PayPal started the stuff up with the 21 day deal with eBay, I jump ship from eBay . But I know what you all mean about there crazy prices as or lately though jumping around. -
2010 Scale Auto Contest Annual
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Len Woodruff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well if this was your go to site for everything model related... then why are you here asking us about a thing from on Scale Auto for? You should be asking about something that comes from MCM and not Scale Auto -
really really, puzzuzeled.
MoparWoman Jamie replied to roadkill's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I am shock to hear that as well, mostly most places wants more people to join "in" and not keep them "out". At least he found the better place to hang out on an that is on this site here! To bad for the other place that rejected him. -

I just did something stupid....
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Clay's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I can't help, but I have to ask this, how did you remember? I know how you feel on issues like that, I reused jugs before also and filled them with other stuff and the ones you can't see through will get you at times. -
I just did something stupid....
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Clay's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Clay, I can relate to that in away man.. back around 5 years I was working on a 3rd gen charger model. I had been using clear coat and doing mist's over the body, well I set it down and without looking I reach back down to pick the can back up. I did so I thought..... well when I went to lay down another layer of clear coat after checking the body out I layed down a nice gold color by mistake. I had the gold color setting next to the clear can and I had grabbed the wrong can due to me not looking downand checking the cans out . Now I look at the cans -
I say laid on the frame.

Matt, that top photos the far left prop. That blur like effect, is the effect of it moving. Your camera pick it up but you just didn't realize it though. It's easy for it to be over looked. But what is more strange is that your camera only caught the one and did't the other 3 though.
-
I been wondering about that as well. It's different, and I like it myself.. but the big question is though.. what is it?
-
I agree.

Your First Model.
MoparWoman Jamie replied to davyou5's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
My frist model the was the Miami Vice one, the Daytona Spyder. It was given to me along with some model glue from my grandad for my 7th birthday back when I was a kid, I remember my mom wasn't to sure at the time about it. I open the box up and I remember looking at all the parts on the trees and looking over the instructions. My dad wasn't at all into models and just couldn't understand them at all. To him they was just all alot of plastic that had to be glued to gather to form something. To my mom it was a mess waiting to happen . It took me I think like around 2 weeks later I had it togother as I couldn't paint it. I wasn't allowed to have paint back then and dad wouldn't do anything like that and neither would mom. That was the first model that got me into building models. -

New to the forum this is what's on my bench
MoparWoman Jamie replied to MZ 500's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I like this build and I think your doing a good job on it, keep up the good work man. I'll be watching this build. -
Do you keep the box?
MoparWoman Jamie replied to Hattley's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I keep some boxes, but like other members said on here and it's like I also do. If I have more then one of the kit I only keep one box and the others either becomes part boxes or get's thrown out. I do also keep the trees to make things from, from time to time. -
One question here, is it going or coming?
-
Man, I like it alot! Like MikeD1 ask, I agree with that question as I would also like to know please.
