Particularly, I am interested in hearing the sites where people have had first hand experience of actually using them and being successful finding roommates. Free or pay sites, obviously with free being strongly preferred.
well luckily Wachovia has my back, I was really surprised that they were so prompt it returning my money. And hopefully they will subpoena the information out of ebay or whatever they have to do because I doubt they enjoy giving up $600+ for something that isn't really on them.
So yea...
/thread?
I don't think so. Ebay actively encourages you to keep a balance in your paypal account and to pay through their method. It should not be up to the consumer to assume that they will be scammed and be happy when you are not, which is more or less what you are implying.
Should...

I had posted a thread on this a week or two back the recap:
1. Bought $1000 of walmart GCs off ebay for $890
2. Won the PP claim, only got $231 back.
3. Emailed ebay asking for seller's personal information for police action, no response yet.

I need a Duratec size slab for my Taurus...
Is calf sized, like veal big enough, or do I need a bull?
PS - The alternator is still good, so I will not need the alternator slab
but how much does all of that cost? an engine swap would be roughly 1000-1400 total and would give me a nice new 30-50k mileage engine. unless what you are speaking of would cost under $500 I might as well swap it and at least give my car some fresh life
My mechanic looks at it yesterday and told me the timing chain jumped and my valves are likely bent since the duratec is an interference engine. he said it is likely I will just want to do an engine swap if i even want to keep the car... :(
Just tto double check him i am going to call the...

Why does everyone have a "condition" that somehow prevents only running? I've overcome breaking my left foot 3 times, knee injuries, back injuries, even smoking newports to still run like the wind!

They bought the regular book when they wanted the lab manual, but my listing was under the correct title with an extra description that left no doubt (or should have) what book they were getting. On half.com you don't really specify a return policy, so I was wondering what I should do. I have...
Do they enforce their ridiculous RMA process? They say no bubble wrap and no newspapers even if it is in an ESD bag. Just wondering if anyone here actually bought the $10 kit just so they could RMA their hard drive.

Going to build a new system soon, was going to go AMD but changed my mind with the price cuts.
I am definitely using this particular motherboard. I could go with the 2GB of GSKILL DDR800 if it would help my overclock. If I can run asynch bus and get the same CPU OC then I would rather save...
This mid-range sucks so bad the only thing I would consider is an 8600GT if it falls to around $110-120, then OC it might be a good value, other than that all they could do to make things interesting is drop price further on GTS320
