We didn't have Funcoland in Canada but I enjoy reading the stories.

Defiantly?

Class Action Lawsuits are an amalgamation of multiple individual cases grouped together into one large case. You can't initiate that process based on your single event. Did you pay with your credit card? You can call them and claim fraud, they're usually more helpful in pulling back funds. Your very last resort is IC3, it's a branch of USA federal government that deals specifically with online fraud. I used them in 2007 when I got scammed for an $1100 air ride suspension for my car and they sent the person a letter from the Attorney General's office, threatening next levels of action. I got my suspension pretty quickly after that.

Does it come with the duck game they're playing on the box?

I wouldn't suggest this for someone without knee problems. An elliptical is very bad for your body because it's not a natural motion and can have some pretty bad health effects. Running is much healthier for you if your knees can take it.

Monday morning - ice hockey before work Wednesday night - ball hockey Friday night - ice hockey Saturday - snowboarding all day Sunday - ball hockey I'm almost 40 and I pretty much eat whatever the hell I want, I'll eat an entire pizza and then a few hands full of chocolate bars. I haven't been inside a gym in 16 years and according to Garmin my resting heart rate is 49 beats per minute. I also make wise life choices though, I eat a healthy breakfast but I think the most important thing is that I eat breakfast at all. I know a lot of people that skip breakfast and that's not healthy for you, it actually slows down your metabolism. I'll have a fruit smoothie every morning for breakfast, 7 days a week, for the last 6 years. I bought a really expensive Vitamix blender to do the job and I throw in a banana (to thicken it up), a frozen yogurt, a few balls of spinach ($1 for a big bag), a hand full of frozen fruit ($5 for a bag) and a scoop of protein. The protein serves no other purpose but to keep me from being hungry, your pre-lunch hunger pains aren't from lack of food, it's from lack of protein specifically. If you have a high protein breakfast, you won't get hungry so early. I don't eat any fast food but that's because I don't like the taste of it. It has been so long now since I have eaten it, that I'm actually at the point where it makes me sick if I do eat it. The last time I ate McDonald's I shit 6 times in one day. My body just can't handle that garbage any more and I like that because it gives me a great reason to stay away from there. I know I'll be straight onto the toilet. I don't drink skim milk. Your body can't naturally digest the lactids in milk without fat to accompany it, that's why fat is in most milk. So unless I'm getting fat content from somewhere else in my diet that day, I'll drink 1% milk instead of skim. Otherwise you're throwing your digestive system into havoc trying to digest the proteins. Don't eat margarine, it isn't butter. My fiance is a doctor and has told me horror stories of how she would cut open cadavers in medical school and there would be a pool of congealed margarine in there. The human body doesn't digest it so every bit you eat just takes permanent residence in your body. Don't eat that stuff, it's nasty. Butter also isn't good for you so I have just cut out both of them from my life completely. I do still enjoy grilled cheese sandwiches but we use Miracle Whip instead and I guarantee you will not be able to tell the difference if you tried it. My fiance is also allergic to port (weird, I know) so we cannot have pork anywhere in the house. It's an incredibly fatty meat and is incredibly bad for you so this works out well for my health. Do you like nachos? Me too but sour cream is incredibly bad for you so I use greek yogurt instead. You might be thinking that's gross but have you tried it? I feed it to my friends when we cook nachos and nobody has noticed and I still haven't told them they're dipping their nachos in yogurt. It tastes exactly the same, looks the same and has the same texture but it's way better for you. Stop drinking beer and soda. I might have a beer after hockey but otherwise I'm not a big drinker anyway. I find if I drink a lot of beer I can actually feel myself getting fatter, it's like eating a loaf of white bread. You don't have to be a genius to figure out nutrition, you can actually talk to your doctor about it and request that a dietitian be present for your appointment. Ask them all the questions you want and they aren't just going to tell you to eat lettuce every day, they'll suggest alternatives to your main caloric abusers. Or you can simply download the My Fitness Pro application on your phone. Enter your weight and target weight, it'll keep track of your caloric intake for you. No matter what you eat, if you search for it,t he information will be in there. Everything on any menu at any restaurant in your city is in there, so you will never have to read the package nor ask the server again. Just enter your meal and it'll tell you how many calories you have left for the day, you'll probably quickly find yourself hitting the limit by lunch time so you'll know you need to swap some things out. I just started watching the documentary Game Changers last night and it's all about how a plant based diet provides more protein and how bad any meat is for you. It's pretty interesting, I might start eating less meat if it's true. EDIT: I also stopped eating ketchup. One because I don't like the taste of it but also because it's loaded with sugar. Why do you think people like it so much? The ketchup companies are going to put whatever the hell they can in it to make you buy it and if that's sugar, then in the sugar goes. They don't care. Seriously, check out how high the sugar content is in white bread and ketchup. I looked at the ingredients in peanut butter once, it was either Skippy or Kraft, and it contained icing sugar. I shit you not, they were putting icing sugar in the peanut butter so you would enjoy eating it, it was hard to believe.

A few years ago I spent $900 on a 1987 Fortress Maximus Transformer. Up until recently it was the largest Transformer ever made, at 2 feet tall. It arrived in a pretty huge box with lots of protection.

If anyone can find me a good quality recording of Street Life with 2Pac and Snoop, I will pay you for it. I have been looking for 20 years and haven't been able to find anything except one copy that is a digitally enhanced version of the bad copy that's everywhere. This is an unreleased song that is amazing. Or I'll trade you unreleased songs I have, including a lot of his songs that eventually got released with completely different beats, like Wordz 2 My First Born, Lil' Homiez and Teardrops And Closed Caskets.

Hard to take him seriously when he studied ballet in school but I had to give him a 10 for his talent. He showed me the power of similes and alliteration......."They say pussy and paper is poetry, power and pistols." That hard P at the beginning of each word is very aggressive and just demands attention when you hear it. He understood the power of writing styles and used it in his lyrics.

Autism community rejoice.

I think it took me 2 days when I rented it, maybe 3. It's a great game, I really liked it.

I got 75% through Jurassic Park on Super NES and somewhere on the ship if you open a door, then try to go behind it while it's open, you'll get stuck for no obvious reason. The door doesn't close, there are no enemies and you have to reset the game. I reset it, beat 75% of the game again and thought to myself, "I wonder if that happens every time." Yes, yes it does. On the third play through I finally beat it.

They have one character that's all of those things? How does that work?

You must be young, this has been a problem for 30 years. I've seen $200 Transformers turn worthless because the batteries were left in them.

Double Dragon IV - continuation of the series with NES sprite style graphics The Bug Butcher - like Super Buster Bros. or Super Pang, quite an addictive 1 or 2 player game Bloo Kid 2 - I haven't played it yet but I plan on buying it based on the advertisement. It looks like Battle Kid or Little Samson.

Option 1: change the salinity of the solution. Option 2: change the composition of the plastic. I'm guessing for you option 1 would be more feasible but my question is why are they in water? Drop them into hydrogen peroxide for a day and you're done.

Are the moderators here the same as the moderators that were banning everyone over there? It seemed like people were constantly getting banned, looking at the first page of any thread a year old showed a few avatars of users past.

Oh, my bad, maybe I was saying it in my head differently than how people were imagining it. Nothing was meant to be degrading. I'm not defending anyone, I just think you can't accuse someone of something unless you have proof. Sometimes things fall out of packages, sometimes the post office steals them. If this poor guy honestly didn't get all of his items, then the seller should work with him any way possible until he can prove otherwise. Think about it, he posted online that he lost all kinds of money before he even initiated the insurance process. Does that seem strange? It seems strange to me. Or maybe I just assume the best in people. I really do hope it works out for everyone here but please keep the accusations to a minimum until we have some proof of what happened here and we actually know if he lost the money or not. He hasn't lost anything yet.

I was at a local guy's house buying something else and his basement is full of 15 years of hoarding. He's a reseller, he just can't sell fast enough to get rid of stuff so his basement is full. I spotted a bookcase behind a chair and on the end was this game, I immediately asked how much. He said $300 (CAD) and I immediately said yes. It's the only one I've ever seen.

I got a bunch of acrylic cases in yesterday, they display very nicely.

I really hope it works out for you, I don't want you to lose your money.

I've been getting a lot of negative feedback for what I posted in here, even with people referencing it in other threads. I'd like to take some time to explain it further. In reference to the spelling, that wasn't helpful so I could have kept it to myself. I was trying to be helpful explaining the red lines, every misspelled word gets underlined red, it does all the work for you. All you need to do is change anything in red. I have dealt with unhelpful sellers before, people that say they're unavailable for a few weeks or on vacation or any other excuse to try and make me stop asking them to help with an insurance claim, it's frustrating. The seller here was asking the buyer to do all of the work when it's the sole responsibility of the seller to take care of this. I think it's very irresponsible to pass that off onto the buyer. After the buyer realized how unhelpful the seller here was, he opened a PayPal claim to make sure he got his money back if the seller continued to make up excuses and not provide the help he should have started right away. This is something any of us would have done, if you bought something and the seller was unwilling to help with the insurance process, you would call your credit card company or find some other means to ensure you get your money back from your missing items. This is what the buyer did, they contacted PayPal and got that second layer of protection. I have done this before and I immediately messaged the seller to let them know it's just in case the item doesn't show up. Once the item showed up, I closed the case and provided positive feedback. This is normal. Now, it's unfortunate these items were lost in shipping but neither the seller nor the buyer will be out any expenses here so I don't know what this guy is complaining about, he's not out $487 at all. All he has to do is contact the shipper, provide the insurance details and he will be credited the full value of the lost items, that's what insurance is for. Why is he claiming to be out money? This should be opened and closed, no problem. I really don't think I posted anything that negative, I'm simply pointing out it was his sole responsibility to start the insurance process and provide the details to the buyer in order to have the PayPal case dropped. He failed to do that. I also pointed out he can get all of his money back by filing an insurance claim with the shipping company. He also failed to do that.
