    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

AVOID Monro Muffler / Brake & Service, Tread Quarters, and or Mr. Tire!!!

And what are you implying? :toetap05:

That perhaps the whack-jobs at Monro may have tinkered with parts of your car that DIDN'T need tinkering with.

Such as the brakes or wheels...or a plethora of other car thingies.

They had plenty of time to do it while the car was in their "care".

I knew that silly.

I was implying that your were implying I was a whack job since I don't play well with others. You must have gotten into Utta's stash too if you didn't catch my meaning. :NoNo:

Nope-not been hitting the ganja in many moons.

And I was just jerking your chain!!
 
I swear, people just try to get as much money out of someone as they can, thinking a customer will never notice the difference. When my laptop went down with the bios password problem, when i initially called Toshiba, i was informed by an "Irma" that my model was one they were having an issue with, and it would be a free repair, all i had to do was ship it to the depot, with them paying the shipping.
They said tops, 10 days for it to be fixed when they received it. To my surprise, i get a prerecorded call about 5 days after i shipped it, saying it was repaired and on it's way back. Well, another week goes by, no laptop, so i go on their site to check the status, and it says "Repair pending" (in direct contrast to the phone call i received).
So i shoot an e-mail asking what was going on, and i get a reply back saying it was going to cost me $179.00 for it to be repaired:angry::angry:
At that, i decided to call them and inform them that i was told it was going to be a free repair, and where did the $179.00 come from?
I also informed the supervisor of both calls, the one where i was told it was to be a free repair, and also the one where i was informed it was repaired, and you know what he told me?

THEY HAD NO SUCH RECORDINGS OF SUCH CALLS!!!!!:angry::angry:

To say i became angry was an understatement, i asked to speak to his supervisor, and was told she was not in at the moment and that she would just tell me what he did. He then said, what's the problem, just give me your credit card number and i can tell the depot to go ahead with the repair!!!!!

I said, no thank you, send me back my laptop, unrepaired, and i told him i would be issuing a complaint. Wonders never cease, the next day i get a call from a "Stacey" saying that my laptop was covered under a recall notice, which i never got, and the repair would cost me nothing.

I guess the Toshiba people thought i was stupid, and would believe whatever they told me, but i had proof otherwise, and they were the ones to back down
