• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Question for the Shave experts!

    IIRC the blade is a factor of the user, and the pitch of the blade provided by the handle is where your skin type comes in to it. and, yes, the screaming-sharp feathers are just rocking, once you learn to respect them!

    sorry, dude, but i HAVE seen this before. that channel is about as deep as a beetle larva. plenty of threads with info with how to segregate, contain, and deal with. and, truly, good luck.

    Tobacco beetle question.

    no, that IS IN FACT a beetle track. ZERO doubt in my mind. most know the round holes from where they will eat their way out, but that is a channel where they have eaten along the surface. look for a dirt/ dust, black-ish and granular: it is debris from their eating, and beetle poop. and...

    yeah, my thought as well. but i usually claim $10 or $20, just to discourage curiosity. and yet i have had a couple recently get sent out WITH sig required. figured if i posted, we would brainstorm, and find some resolution.

    PSA to ALL traders, gifters, sellers, 3/21/14

    so, due to a recent facelift in the USPS home page, the option for "signature required" on click'N'ship labels seems to be the default option now. as we collectively make up about 27% of the USPS's click'N'ship business (or at least it feels like it!), PLEASE check your labels while you are...
