Volume knob on Amp Ultra feels worse than the Amp?

I know it's a first world issue, but just got a wiim amp ultra (honestly love it already) but the volume knob feels off. Like the last one had this premium feel when turning it where it was smooth, but this one works but feels scratch.

Think of it as the Amp volume control felt like it was on a turntable being turned while the Amp Ultra volume control feels like it's on concrete being turned?

Again, it's not something worth returning/rebuying for (not going to waste money/time on it) but figured I'd ask if others were the same?

If Open-Box Excellent shipped Rog Ally included no accessories, does BB not do partial refunds? Tried requesting a condition downgrade from Excellent to Good and denied via chat.

Politely asked customer support if they could do a downgrade from Open-Box Excellent ($486) to Good ($455) for the Rog Ally that I ordered (it shipped from North Carolina to Kansas City) and support said no.

I was wondering if that was accurate as they said my only option otherwise is to return for a refund? When they said no I asked if they could escalate as whether returning to BB or UPS would be an hour of my time and received the below response.

>I completely understand how upsetting that must be, especially considering the time it would take to return the item. I truly appreciate you sharing that with me. However, I want to be transparent that all our teams have the same options available in situations like this. Since this is an open box item, they can vary in condition and they are not available for replacement.
Because of that, we're unable to offer a partial refund or replace it with an identical unit. The only available option in this case would be to return the item for a full refund, so you won't have any issues moving forward. If there were any alternate resolution available, I would absolutely make sure to get that arranged for you.
I sincerely wish there was another way around this to get you the deal. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience this has caused.
While shipping the accessories would be a convenient option, unfortunately, they are not sold separately, is why we're unable to ship them individually. We kindly request that you return the item, and we can assist you with reordering if you need help placing the order.

[USA] [CA] Can't wait 10 seconds for a light...

The building is Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, CA (Los Angeles). The best part was they got stuck at the next light about 10 seconds down the road and I passed them smh.

Main Street Electrical Parade at Disneyland in the spring of 1993

Have been digitizing some old photos so we don't lose them ever and thought I'd share these from when my mom and dad took me to Disneyland back when I was a toddler.

Last year USPS delivered over 150lbs of weed to our office over 4 months and USPS just told us to throw it in the trash lol.

Images - https://imgur.com/a/someone-mailed-us-150-pounds-68kg-of-marijuana-over-3-months-hETvmM0

From February to May 2025, our office in Los Angeles began receiving vacuum-sealed marijuana packages returned from USPS. They were all addressed to fake names in London, England, but used our office as the return address. Each box typically contained 3–4 one-pound packages.

The Timeline

February 4th: ~51lbs of Weed (17 boxes) We returned from working remote (due to the Palisades Fire) to find 17 boxes at our door labeled "toy ukulele" or "Star Wars Lego set." They were addressed to our sub-lessor. He took them home, opened one, and panicked. Local police didn’t want them; USPS told him to drop them off. Eventually, USPS picked them up from our office because no one wanted to drive around with 50lbs of federal contraband in their trunk.

March 11th: ~18lbs of Weed (6 boxes) A USPS federal agent collected these. He said it wasn't uncommon and claimed they would check security footage at the origin post office.

March 18th: ~18lbs of Weed (6 boxes) A different USPS agent arrived and told us to just throw future shipments in the dumpster. She said the government had "gutted" funding for these cases and this amount wasn't worth their time. She said if they caught the person, they’d likely just tell them to stop.

March 25th: ~24lbs of Weed (8 boxes) I wasn't comfortable tossing 24lbs of weed into a street-accessible dumpster, so I called the non-emergency line. LAPD initially told me to toss it, but called back 10 minutes later to send a unit. Two officers arrived, opened a bag to confirm it wasn't tobacco, and then took it to the evidence room for eventual burning. They also confirmed: "Just toss the next ones in the trash."

April 1st & 8th: ~18lbs total (6 boxes) As instructed by the feds and the cops, we threw these directly into the dumpster.

April 22nd: ~18lbs of Weed (6 boxes) Another 5 standard boxes and one outlier: a very small, incredibly heavy box. It was half the size of the others but weighed 7+ lbs. I threw it away with the rest, but I still wonder what was in that package.

May 2nd: ~6lbs of Weed (2 boxes) The final shipment. Dumpster-bound.

The Final Count

In total, we handled roughly 50 boxes and 150 pounds (68kg) of marijuana.

The Math (Estimated):

  • Manufacturing Cost: ~$33,750
  • US Street Value: ~$150,000
  • London Street Value: ~£675,000 ($887,000 USD)

TL;DR: Smugglers used our LA office as a return address for London-bound weed. USPS and Police eventually got tired of picking it up and told us to just throw it in the trash. We did.
