    My father works for fedex and you’re supposed to sign and confirm that there are no hazardous materials in the package. By failing to do so put package handlers and delivery drivers at risk, and fedex could pursue legal action against the seller.

    I fell into a scam when I bought a Super Reverb Amp on Reverb. The Amp arrived, definitely not in mint condition as listed..scratches, rips, broken corner, etc. The tubes had to be put back into it, as they had been packaged separately. Looking at them I noticed they looked strange. They were broken. Looking inside the amp, the tubes had been broken off up inside the sockets, then taken out and packaged. I called the guy who sold it to me. His story went back and forth on how he had never actually seen it but had bought it and taken the sellers word on it being mint. This went completely against what he had told me on reverb about him inspecting it and it's cherry. He has me send it back so I can get my money. I do get refunded. But, so does he for the cost of the amp. He told reverb that I packaged it wrong and it was completely destroyed when he got it. So, somehow it was all my fault now and I was told by reverb that I need to be more careful from now on. I told them to get their business straight and recognize a scammer instead of paying them out.

    Yup, just weigh the item you own and fill the same weight in a box so it's equal weight of the product or near enough and ship. More people are filming goods before opening them up due to what has to be the oldest scam in the book. Years back people used to purchase consoles and take the box back with stones in it used to work in a game store and some lad tried that on with me, got to say made me laugh especially when he ran off leaving the box behind free stones! :)

      Making around a dollar or so per thousand views is fairly normal can be less or more as it fluctuates through the year for a large number of reasons.
      But with the amount of views the video has 1k would be the upper limit this video has made and that’s over the course of time it’s been out not one lump sum. But the video may well have only made more around $500 by this point no way to know truly for sure as only his dashboard would be able to show that. But 3k for this amount of views? Well beyond doubt that.

    One of my fav guitar stories is concerning my son’s Tele Thinline. My ex wife dropped it, yep insane, and damaged the finish. I took it to a guy who advised refinishing and after about a month I got it back. It was way better than I expected and I started looking at the guitars the guy made. Absolutely incredible and based on an LP. It turned out that he made guitars for Carlos Santana! I was like wow, I guess that explains why it looked better after refinishing! The value is diminished due to refinishing, but upped by a famous guitar maker refinishing it. Craftsmen still blow my mind.
