Highlights from this day
- holly_holds — the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume 23:29
- unsolicited_dm — is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one 23:31
- olive_orders — while im here invoice says €38 and my total came out different, whos wrong 23:51
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
do the fee maths
[edited]for the archive i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily
has anyone been asked to pay a second time
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mg✅2📈5
is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
no escrow here
right so a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that, ill dig out the number
nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this
do you check the whole address or just the ends
slightly off topic but network fees were higher than the discount, has anyone done that maths
a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
while im here invoice says €38 and my total came out different, whos wrong
option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mgupdate on the earlier thing paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it
