Cool then he's less likely to hunt you down for it.

I was offered $565 each for both my DL4 and bass whammy on reverb. This reeks of obvious scam. What do you guys think? Potential downside to accepting/potential scam damage? I feel like as long as I have the pedals still, I can't be scammed by accepting.

It'll go off the market until it's paid for or 48 hours at least if he doesn't buy it. Then customer service reposts and bumps your ad.

Idk what he'd get access too when you accept. It doesn't show more of your info right?

Jammed with 2nd band again last night. Working on a name/setlist. Will probably try to start gigging in Oct, because the other two guys are winding down other gig obligations in Sept. Used both the Blower Box and the Volt Thrower last night and was very pleased with both, so they'll stay side by side for now. I have the Blower Box dialed in for more top end bite and the VT dialed in for more mids buzz. I love how much low end they have, esp. in C standard tuning. I tried my guitarists OCD just for the hell of it, way too much low end loss. Mids and highs sounded good, though. I should've switched to C stnd a long time ago; I'm really enjoying getting those low lows. Next, I'm going to take my first ever bass, a beat-to-shiz Squier P, and set it up for BEAD.

African Grays are awesome birds, scary smart and kind of goofy. Spent a lot of time with several parrots at a pet store job, loved those birds but i don't think i could ever own one. Get that fella some chili peppers.

Totally. I don't think they would see any information. It just seems like a scam and I am generally hesitant to get involved in the least bit in something that smells of scam.

I'll accept. Who knows, maybe I'll make $1000 on two $150 pedals. I'm not going to hold my breath though.

He is so much quitter than the Cockatoos we fostered for a while, I couldn't take them with my migraines, and one was cuddly but would give you a terrible tittay twister if you stopped paying attention to it. Our three pacific parottlets are noisier then the grey. Sarah said is a Timneh African Grey. The funny part is her name is Shelia and Sarah has a older sister with a real long nose named Sheila too! She settled in around 10 last night and real started playing with her toys a lot. I love how she eyeballs the dogs, like yeah I am watching you mutt. She makes some weird bleep noise but not loud, I am racking my brain trying to figure what appliance or sound she is imitating, can't pin it down yet. Her owners rescued her for about a year but had to move to a no pet allowed apartment so they asked us to keep or rehome it for them. When I looked at it all I could think of was Kawai's avatar.

ok, so I've been dealing with a lot of US based vendors at work recently. I have noticed that whenever i say "thank you" the typical response is "uh huh". Is this normal? seems kind of dismissive, i'm sure that's not the intention but i still find it strange. we would normally say "you're welcome" or "no problem"....

very odd.

I'm not the best barometer for normal, but I always say "you're welcome", "no problem" or "my pleasure" when someone says thank you to me. At work or otherwise. A lot of people are extremely rude and stupid though. I can't attest to how much of it is contained within our borders, but these are the people I interact with every day.

You're dealing with ********.

Do business in the southern US and you will get overly polite responses.
