I use the Spectre PRO LEDs in my cases. They don't move the most air but they are quiet as shite and I like the lights.

The we just responded to me as said he is going to pay me in 6 days when he gets paid. That's bullshite to buy something and not plan on paying for over a week. It's not worth opening a case over it but its bullshite.

I've had that happen too. I always schedule auction style listings to end on Sunday night or Monday night, and some buyers wait until Friday to pay. People shouldn't be buying frivolous crap on eBay if they're living paycheck to paycheck.

I now list everything fixed price with immediate payment required, no one with an unconfirmed address, and no one with an address outside the U.S., and also no one who has had 2 nonpaying bidder strikes against them in the last 6 months.

Wish I could block people with 0 feedback as well.

eBay will now take care of international shipping for you FYI. You just ship it to one of their facilities and they do the documentation for customs and everything else. The buyer pays for it all.

This person had 2 previous feedbacks, both positive but obviously not a big ebay user

Yeah, I did recently opt into that. Still haven't had any international buyers though. I can imagine that the extra shipping and other fees they are forced to pay are too much for it to be worth it.

I hate that sellers can't leave negative feedback for buyers anymore. I had a NPB with like 40 positives, and if you actually read them, a lot were from sellers who were calling the guy out as a deadbeat, but could only do it via positive feedback. That's when I started adding that NPB strikes restriction to my auctions.

Depends. I know in Australia they pay an extremely higher price for crap like video games vs here. I have seen them complain on Reddit about it and some even get people here to buy them stuff and ship it to them. Even after sliding them a bit extra for their troubles the Aussies still saved money.

According to reddit, Australia is the worst place to live if your a gamer.

But their minimum wage is like 30% higher and so are a lot of their wages overall so it probably balances out.

Yep

I am thinking about sleeving my stuff before I put it all into this case Coyote sent me since I don't plan on changing much once I put everything in. The tubing he sent me is black so are the water blocks, the fans, my mobo, etc. Should I break the black up with some colored sleeving or just black it all out?

I did mine with purple and gold sleeve from Nils. IMO the paracord looks better but dust sticks to it and its tougher to clean.

If my PSU was 100% modular I would just buy a set already sleeved.

I personally like the all-black look. If you recall my PC's look whenever I did a dye job with my cables and tubing:



The color was broken up by blue LEDs and blue heatsinks on the mobo. And those copper RAMsinks which I would've preferred to be black or hidden.

Then when I upgraded I kept a similar theme, but with even more blue LED glow and some silver:

Are you going to do individual sleeves on the new PSU or leave it stock?
