The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

we sold an inherited necklace one time by putting it up for auction locally, could try that. as far as i'm aware you can typically set a minimum amount so if it doesn't sell for the price you want the worst that'll happen is you'll get it back and have to try again. could probably put it up on ebay alternatively?

My issue with eBay is how fucking easy it is to get fucked as a seller there.

I'll probably take it to a couple pawn shops tomorrow and see what they offer for it. I know I'm not going to get anywhere near the $1300 price tag, but I'd be happy as fuck with $600.

You're in the wrong neighborhood son.

Ha, I just mean that I dont want to try and sell it over Facebook or something and go meet a stranger face to face. I guess I could take a pistol with me but once we get to that point it looks like I'm trying to be the criminal and it's just a bad scene maaaaan.

So I took the ring to a cash for gold place and the guy told me that it wasnt real.... took it to a jewelry store for a second opinion and indeed it contained no diamond. My aunt was with her boyfriend at the time when he bought it from a place called LeRoy Jewelers. I'm kinda shocked. Dude paid $1300, CFG guy told me he could give me $30 for it.

Well that's a damn shame. Frankly even real jewelry is a scam imo.
 
Well yeah, the idea of a sliver of metal with a couple rocks stuck in it being worth over a thousand bucks is silly tbh.

We can thank a plurality of the female of the species for wanting to perpetuate stores of wealth and industrial capital resources as shiny baubles. Like used car salesmen. Fortunately those types don't frequent our blessed abode here.

Walking back from the gym past the castle ruins. Bumped into 3 other guys at the crossroads by the top of the bridge. All of us in shorts and t shirt, because this is the UK, not fucking Siberia. Immediate bond. Felt like something outa Highlander. Pretty sure we'd all die for each other now.
 
I should probably start trying to get a better idea of what I'm gonna do for mine.

Something to do with timber frame multi storey construction was my main thoughts so far but wat??
