@BrandonDavisBD People really saying the Endgame trailer came out on time when (assuming the NWH trailer comes out by next Friday) we’re at the EXACT same point before release as when the first Endgame trailer came out.
@DylanHarris1124 @snackbard @jason_wilson @Squiblon The article literally says he bought in demand and low supply items to sell for double their sticker price or more. Are you actually this ignorant or do you have to actively try to be?
Also if an article has to use “technically legal in most cases” what’s being done isn’t goodc
@skxnkss @oddesque@DylanHarris1124 @snackbard @jason_wilson @Squiblon “With scalping consumers can get what they want when they want without waiting in line”....It’s 2021, we can do that anyway, the only time you have to wait in queues is to try to beat scalpers. Without scalpers the item would be readily available at, get this, it’s intended cost.
@DylanHarris1124 @snackbard @jason_wilson @Squiblon Also his own father is also quoted as being uncomfortable at first and then doing mental gymnastics to justify it.
@DylanHarris1124 @snackbard @jason_wilson @Squiblon You’re right...a 16 year old DEFINITELY was able to buy enough of a very difficult to find items to then resell for almost 2 million dollars through completely legitimate means. The article LITERALLY says he uses “sly” techniques and bots.
It’s scummy at BEST.
@DylanHarris1124 @snackbard @jason_wilson @Squiblon Buying stock of something with a known shortage solely to sell it at an extremely jacked up price would be the perfect example of predatory Capitalism....or screwing people over.
@CapitalOne said “You can’t get a higher credit limit than the criminally low one we gave you years ago when your score was dogshit because fuck you” while everyone else was like “absolutely you can have a good limit because you’re responsible.” So guess I’m leaving Capital One.
@528Crypto @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell I didn’t say they were the same. I added my own experience to the conversation. 2 different examples of a broken system an indictment of the system not of the person giving a different, but equally damming example. But thanks for reading.
@cdsmith80 @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell Also, there are only so many types of accounts you can even get so when you do the responsible thing and pay one off without taking on another car payment “diversify your account type” is a stupid justification for a broken system.
@cdsmith80 @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell The fact that I never missed a payment for the 6 years the car loan was active and I’ve consistently kept a low balance on the card then paid it off by the next due date should be a bigger positive than the fact that the account was closed due to a 0 balance is a negative.
@cdsmith80 @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell I’m aware what the given explanation is. It shows the problem with the system. You can’t qualify for things until you can, and the car and a credit card were the first two things I could qualify for when I was old enough.
@junior_punky1 @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell Except everytime you open a new loan your score is going to decrease. 1) Because of new inquiries and 2) because the average age of your credit is going to drop.
Not to mention depending on where you sit you may not qualify for a new loan while the old one(s) are active.
@vverminqueen @britompkins @Armanyosh@mcmansionhell They don’t, that’s why I said most lines of debt, but the answer to that is “once it’s paid off let it sit but don’t close” but the problem with that is that the younger you were when you started the card/the worse your credit was the more likely that card has an annual fee.
@ThugstaNuffin I literally paid off my car in November and my credit score went down 40 points and STILL hasn’t rebounded all the way. I didn’t have an option. Pay off = automatic closure. Don’t pay off by even $.01 = delinquent account = bad.
