Hello, I'm in a tight position financially. I'm trying to sell some electronics to get enough money to make it to my next check.
I'm planning to sell a tablet (Surface Pro 7), an old laptop, and a Samsung Galaxy watch 6. I'm a terrible haggler, I just want to get a fair value for the items. Where should I go to sell off these items for the best return?
Link to the Kicks here and the CarFax here
Link to the Sentra here and Experian AutoCheck here
Main thing that has me conflicted is the fact that the car is a salvage / rebuild. I spoke with the dealer, and they directed me to the Carfax, which suggested that the car was previously in a mild accident to the front of the car and the insurer of the owner declared it a total loss.
Trying to move fast here as I can't go without a call for long, all opinions appreciated! Please do let me know if the links give you trouble.
Hello, I moved to a new apartment on 5/19. On 5/20, my car broke down. The shop I towed it to told me that it was the transmission, and that replacement will cost ~$4.5k. I don't have that kind of money at the ready!
I am in a very, very financially precautious position with no help available from immediate family, save for a couple hundred dollars that I can ask of from my grandmother.
General notes:
- State where this is happening: Georgia
- I deliver food in my car as a 2nd source of income, and am now out of that income due to the car issue
- Car shop is a local location, not a franchise / dealership / etc
- Car is a Nissan Sentra, 2015
Options I'm considering:
- Sell my car after I get my hands on the title (I lost it), get financing for a new car and try to score a good monthly rate + insurance rate
- Get a personal loan and try to pay for the transmission replacement, despite the overall age and low value of the car
I can't go very long without my 2nd income source: I have dependents (my mother) and need the car to get to and from work. Thus far I've had my brother move me around, but his car is breaking down too.
If I can get enough wind under my sails I can make it, but I can't afford to make the wrong move here. I'm down to about $200. So tell me, please, what would you do in my position?
PLease let me know if you need more info to answer my question!
I took my car to an auto shop after experiencing the following issues:
- Loud noise from engine area (center-front of car) when car is idling.
- Noise persists in drive, park and neutral.
- Noise is quietest when in drive and brakes fully engaged, loudest when trying to accelerate past ~25 MPH.
- noise disappears in reverse.
- Visible, mild engine vibration.
Car shop said that I need to replace the transmission and a belt inside the transmission is very close to failing, and that's where the noise is coming from.
I am tight for cash and can't afford to tow the car to a 2nd location. Should I ask them to just replace the failing belt, or is this too ineffective/dangerous? I rely heavily on my car for income and cannot go very long without a set of wheels.
Willing to offer more info upon request, thanks!
I made a post a while back asking if I had a chance in Master League using 'mons under Lv 50. I got mixed responses, but some of the more encouraging ones really inspired me to give it a shot.
I blew through everyone from 1,780 to Ace lol and it wasn't close. Consistent 4-1s or 5-0s! I slowed down and am getting 2-3s or 3-2s, still adjusting to the new matchups.
Team I used:
- Marshadow Lead (Shadow Claw, Ice Punch / Close Combat)
- Kyogre SS (Waterfall, Origin Pulse / Avalanche)
- White Kyurem Closer (Dragon Breath, Fusion Flare / Ice Burn).
PS: Marshadow has waaaay more mileage than I thought he'd get, nobody respects the Close Combat opener lol
Open to tips! I feel like I have too much Ice, considering swapping Marshadow's Ice Punch for Rockslide or even Fire Punch
CP too high for Great League, IVs too high for good Ultra League play, and a C grade fighter for the Master League. Terribad raider, too.
Is this not just an insta-purify? Or is there a niche use-case, like a Battle League with limited options (think things like the Jungle Cup, Fantasy Cup etc)?
Currently at 1,850 Rating. Never hit Ace before, but I really want to try out Master League! I'm a regular in Great League and try out Ultra League from time to time, but I'm really eager to try out Master League. Plus I need a break from the Empoleon/Feraligatr/Jellicent spam lol
However, since we only get a limited number of games a day, I don't want to waste my time by jumping in too early.
