Can i take imodium and mesalamine

Literally received my auth to purchase on Friday, went and bought my pistol on Saturday, emailed in all the paperwork and pics Sunday. I havent gotten a confirmation email as of yet. How long does it take to get your physical card in the mail so i can go pick up my gun?

This guy i was seeing for a week invited me over a few months ago. I came round, only intending to just talk and eat. I noticed a flashing camera above his bed, which was clearly filming. He then wanted to have sex with me, to which i denied. this went on for about an hour, ending in him trying to force it in, me sobbing and screaming, and him assaulting me. I believe the whole time it was filmed, but i’m very scared to take it legally. Can someone tell me what the legal process would be, and whether it’s worth it to report him to the police? I’m classed as a minor, as is he, which scares me as i think people won’t take it seriously.

I love Larion but their evil option is very hard to mentally justify outside the stupid evil alignment (Wenduag flashbacks). Here's a path and headcannon that should allow you to side with the cult of a mind-control god without meaning to.
First, you scout out the goblin camp safely and nonviolently. When you reach Minthara, assume that you fail to conceal the grove's location. You're afraid to face the goblin camp on your own so attacking her outright isn't an option your character considers. Before your next rest, return to the grove and steal the Idol of Silvanus.
Your justification doing this is a bit complicated but here it is. Firstly, you don't know the timeline for the Rite of Thorns. It's possible that the druids kick out the tieflings and complete it before the goblins arrive (a bad outcome.) Rationally, you believe that removing this contingency will force the druids to seek out allies. Sure, they may suspect the tieflings but surely a reasoned argument will-
Well, that didn't work out quite how you envisioned it and now you're in a massive battlefield. You kill the unreasonable druids and the tieflings flee. When Minthara arrives, she will comment on the blood, and you will nod and smile with a shit-eating grin. Your new allies are not ones of choice, but the ones your character flaws, cowardice and Machiavellianism, have wrought. Being not insanely evil, you have room for a redemption arc or a proper fall from here.
As for your companions, I recommend not finding Karlach until after grove falls for maximum immersion. Her misunderstanding makes more sense if she's not with you during it. Strangely, I believe Wyll's and Gale's reactions are actually more suited to this sequence of events than the one the game intends. Wyll should outright attack you and Gale should be firm in his rejection, in my opinion. (Also, please note that this is an immersion focused, so, if you just want goodies, kill Karlach, get Mizora's robe, and sacrifice Wyll to Booo'al instead)
Interestingly, I think this can justify Karlach or Wyll origin character as well with some tweaks. Instead of being cowardly, they are triggered by Minthara because she reminds them of a powerful abuser they can't hope to fight. After fleeing, they remain in survival mode, imagining everyone around them thinks like their abuser. And who is more coldly rational than a devil? If they had a good night's sleep, either one would recognize their flawed thinking, but they don't so there's a bloodbath instead. For Wyll, you should have killed Karlach beforehand as that's part of his personal fall. For Karlach, I can't say how this will change her quest line so do your research or take the risk.
Hopefully, this will help someone enjoy their playthrough more. I'd love to hear your thoughts or your own ideas for evil playthrough.

Hi there, I’m not much of one to post on anything, but I just have to get this out..it’s has been absolutely wrecking me.
So, all the way back in August of last year a new girl had started where I worked. (23M and 20F btw) The moment I saw her I knew I had to try for her, and it took me a couple months to work up the courage, but I did it. Which for me was a big decision because I’ve always had bad luck when it comes to the ladies and I have no idea why, they always say I’m a great guy and that “any girl would be lucky to have me” but they don’t feel the same. Okay, not a problem. Does it suck? Yeah, but at least they were straight up, and that’s all that I can ask.
Well, very much to my surprise, it seemed like it was going pretty well! She told me I was cute and we’d flirt and all that, which is another thing that surprised me because I’d actually never had someone tell me that. I thought maybe i’d actually found someone who cared, someone who wanted to talk to me and share experiences. She actually motivated me to grow, and I lost like 40 pounds in the time we were talking! I’d never been happier! We were never official because she said she was still healing from her last relationship that ended poorly because he was toxic(which was her first boyfriend) or so she says. Which I was fine with.
Anyways, fast forward a few months (March) and she told me she’s going back to her old job. I was a little sad at first but I was happy for her because honestly our job sucked. Well after she left the replies started becoming dry and sparce, and it felt like she was distancing herself. I asked her if she wanted to smoke and hangout and she replied “idk maybeee” I then responded and said she could just be straight up with me, I’m a grown man and that I’d rather have that than lies/ false hope.
That was about 2 and a half weeks ago. I’ve been on delivered since and it’s actually eating me alive. All my life I’ve felt like I’ve never been good enough for love, for whatever reason although it’s all I’ve ever wanted and none of my friends have ever had trouble finding someone. To have this happen with the one girl who actually gave me hope, and made me just so damn happy makes me just not want to try ever again. I quite literally cannot stop thinking about it and why I wasn’t enough - yet again.
What do I do?? I want her to know how much she hurt me but I have a feeling she already knows that. Plus she viewed my story yesterday, so she knows I still exist. I’ve been having a hard time getting myself to eat, I’ve lost interest in almost everything. Where do I go from here?? I know I’m probably making a bigger deal out of this than it actually is but I can’t help but be just so damn sad. Any help/insight is much appreciated. If you read through all of this thank you very much and take care 🤍

Hi everyone, I'm 19M and after going to the salon and having them borderline shame me (I don't blame them) for my unhealthy hair I decided to try and look into how to make it healthier. I never look at the top/back of my head but when I did I was shocked at how awful it looks. I'm not sure if it's balding or just major thinning because baldness doesn't run in my family. I had a little bit of thinning at the crown when I was 14 because my hair was always dyed but it wasn't nearly this bad. It's only the back that looks this bad, the front is fairly healthy.
Is there anything I can do to fix this or will I have to completely cut my hair? I feel like long hair suits my face very well so I'd hate to cut it but I suppose it's my fault for not taking care of my hair.
I shampoo and condition once a week but I'm gonna start conditioning every other day as per recommendation from the stylist. I use Renpure bioten and collagen shampoo and Biotera ultra moisturizing conditioner.
Sorry for the long post I just wanted to get some details in and I hope the pictures aren't too bad. Please go easy on me😅. Let me know if I left anything out, thank you!

please do not try to start a conversation in the comments section
Me: - Never married, no kids - Masters degree and a good career - Loves sports, traveling and home projects!

Looking for:
Long term connection with someone who keeps in touch regularly and can function successfully in a normal society. INTJ.
I prefer direct chats over direct messages. Tell me about yourself with writing a book!
Kinks available upon request! Let’s connect! (I add more stuff and apparently under the word minimum! Weird!)

I guess it's the sadness about mother's day that brings it out. Mom was the safer parent, but now that I respect myself more, I see that even she treated me like absolute shit. I haven't gone no contact but I'm low contact/very low contact. I'm the only kid they see on a regular basis.
She picked her alcoholic husband over her kids. She always treated me unfairly and my sibling got so much more while I got so much less. She didn't defend me from a family member's CSA. Medical neglect because I was just "faking" it. I'm pretty sure that my parents coached me to pass an autism assessment, because as an adult they were like, "yeah, you're twice exceptional, you're special needs." But when I could have benefitted from support they made no attempt to get me real help. I was always the one who was broken and ruining the family. Not my parents. For so long the problem was me. And then I actually was the problem in my own life, because they'd conditioned me to accept so much abuse as normal and I wasn't fighting back when I should have.
I'm low income, they buy luxury goods and flaunt them at me. They give tens of thousands and nice jewelry to my sibling but I get a cheap cast iron pot and a handful of imported eye drops. I eat at home and my clothes are old. I have what I need and my life is fine. But it's just insulting. They gave away my handheld gaming equipment, graphic novels, collectibles I could have sold. You know. Because I'm low income right now. Because the things I care about don't matter.
Just because I'm low income at the moment doesn't mean that I haven't achieved anything... I'm in graduate school, doing well, and have gained international recognition for my work (US, Mexico, Canada, China, prob EU next year). I'm publishing and exhibiting. I'm doing fucking great and I'm proud of myself and unashamed to be proud of all the work that getting this far took. Despite the negative impact they've had. Yet my sibling, who works in a pre college extension program, "teaches at an Ivy League school." I've been flown out by Ivy + top schools just to give a short lecture. No shade on my sibling, they turned out great especially for a golden child and I'm proud of them and wish them happiness. But just the level of perception, the unfairness... It's so telling. I've given up on expecting them to be proud of me because on their end they're embarrassed because by my mid 30s I've accomplished more than they have in their lives.
I keep in contact with them because I feel like it's the right thing to do, based on my personal and cultural values. But is it really worth it? What peace of mind is there when to do the right thing I have to sit and grey rock for an hour and still get all the energy drained from my body? I feel like up until now it was healthy to encounter them as someone who is healing, I can now understand how flagrantly terrible they've always been and I don't tolerate that from others any more. But I tolerate it from them, for brief periods, because I see how lonely they are and having a minimal relationship gives them a lot more than it takes from me.
But when do I stop giving? How do I make it easier to live with myself if I just wash my hands of them? Their bodies and minds and their house are all seriously deteriorating. I don't want to be the kid who jets off and leaves their parents in squalor. I don't want them to rot with no one checking in on them. But at what point is enough, enough?

So I'm in grad school and I have notice that this particular girl keeps talking to me everyday. I'm not sure that she likes me. It all started when I complimented her in class one day. Now she stares at me alot. I left her alone however because she is dating a dude in my class. I ran into at target and she hugged me while she was on the phone with her best friend. She showed my face on the phone to her friend. She admitted that she stares at me because she finds me interesting. As endearing as it is, I found that creepy lol. But I offer to drive her to a bar later that night. This is where it gets wierd.
I picked her up and she brought me a cookie to thank me. She made sure to tell everyone that I took her to the bar in a loud voice. Once we got to the bar, I left her hang with her friends and I did me. I thought it was cool but she got mad!! She started telling people that I suck, and "I'm just a nice guy". She also told that I need to text her before I got to the bathroom not just get up and leave. It got wierd fast, and she said she would Uber home. Not going lie, I kinda got mad so I told her fine, I regret taking her anyway. I wasn't mad at her changing her mad, but I got tired of her attitude toward me
Now I feel bad for what I said, but Im so confused because she had a bf. Ironically, she broke up with him recently. Do you guys think she liked me secretly? If so, how can I recover for this?

Hello!
Right now, I'll be going into my 3rd year in university and I'm majoring in Digital Arts and Sciences. The major is basically made up of very project-based classes that have us learning about game development, UI/UX, and 3D and/or 2D animation. Eventually, you'll hone in on a certain field in upper-division classes and I've been really interested in pursuing 3D modelling. However, I've recently come across the option of becoming a technical artist and I've hit a bump in the road. How useful would a computer science minor be in pursuing a career as a technical artist?
I've been taking math classes and a programming class so that I can officially declare a computer science minor, but the minor itself would require a lot of credits (24 more to be exact) on top of working a job/internship, school, and developing my 3D modelling skills and portfolio, and I'm not sure balancing all of those is very plausible. So, would a computer science minor really be worth it? If not, what should I be focusing on instead?
Another opinion I would like to ask if you would recommend even considering a career as a technical artist for me as a more artistic-leaning individual.
Any insight or opinions on this would be very helpful!

Hey all, sort of a simple question probably, but I've been trying to look into Spheres of PoweMight for a potential campaign I've been thinking up, but I want to kind of get an understanding before I drop $60+ on some books I may never end up using. I've read a good bit and the general concept sounds super fun, but I wanted to ask about how the new stuff interacts with official feats, particularly on the magic side. For example, how exactly would the feat Spell Focus work in relation to the Spheres system? Or things like spell perfection, or metamagic? If the answer is as simple as take the dive and buy the book, I can do that, but I wanted to ask around a bit before I committed.

Of Men and Ghost Ships, Book 1: Chapter 16
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As he made the Captain's case, Carter was staring down his...crew, for lack of a better term. "Listen, I'm not big on allowing some random people on our ship either, but according to the Captain of their vessel, this guy might not last until rescue gets here. You can quickly treat him while we're cannibalizing that pirate vessel, and then we'll put them back in their pod and be on our way. In return, they're offering us all the munitions on the ship they have a claim on. It's not a bad deal."
The vixen seemed to have already made up her mind. No surprises there. "Absolutely not! We don't owe these people a thing! They're already lucky you're letting them keep what you are!"
The girl adjusted her glasses. "I don't see any particular benefit to us in this either. What few munitions are left on that ship aren't likely in any condition to be of use to us unless we take them apart and put them back together again, costing us almost as much time and energy as just going out and finding more elsewhere. We've got more than enough resources from that nearly whole vessel at our disposal for the time being. It is an unnecessary risk with little payoff."
So, this time, it came down to the pirate. All three turned to him as he considered the options. "Well, I don't know about owning anyone anything or how well we'll get paid, but from the sounds of things, this lad got injured fighting against overwhelming numbers in an all-hope-is-lost kinda situation and managed to get not only himself but his companions out alive! That kind of heave-ho attitude deserves to be rewarded! Sides, the only one who'll really be at risk is our Captain. It's not like they can do anything to the ship if we don't let them!"
Carter was starting to suspect the supposed pirate was more of a softy than he let on but wasn't about to say anything to that effect. Instead, he just shook his head. "Even split, so I guess I get to use my tiebreaker authority to make the call again. Contact Captain Dimitri and let him know we'll be taking the injured man on board just long enough to stabilize him, but no one can take any weapons off the pod with them. If we see so much as a knife, we'll space the lot of them."
-
As Alen sat up, he noticed he was having trouble focusing. Vanessa was speaking with someone on their console. It might have been the Captain, but he wasn't sure. "Are you sure we can trust them? This is taking a considerable risk..."
The response didn't sound as confident as he usually did. "Honestly, no, I'm not, and from what I remember of this ship, it doesn't exactly have the best of reputations. However, they could have easily waltzed in here, killed us, ignored us, and/or taken everything they wanted. Instead, they took the time to say hi and even bothered with negotiations. Also, judging by what we just saw, they aren't any more friendly toward pirates than we are, so that's a mark in their favor. If the boy was in better condition, I'd say he could just ride it out, but you mentioned he's not doing very well, so this is his only option. Besides, it's not like the government would let us keep many of the munitions on board that ship. He's got no choice, and it's not really costing us anything, might as well."
Vanessa didn't seem particularly appeased, but she didn't argue other than to mutter low enough that the Captain probably couldn't hear her. "It might cost a couple of us something..."
At this point, Alen was reasonably sure they were talking about him. However, the world wouldn't stop spinning long enough for him to consider his own thoughts on the subject. Instead, he just closed his eyes and hoped things would work out for the best.
-
Carter watched from overhead as the pod docked in the ship's bay. It seemed so small compared to the cavernous room, but he knew appearances could be deceptive. For instance, he wasn't exactly prepared to put up much of a fight himself, as his handgun was still mostly empty, but he wasn't about to let them know that.
The Captain had warned him there were not one, but two aliens aboard the pod and that they were pretty intimidating to look at. Carter had to admit that it made him curious. Everyone knew about the Vitexrā by now; they'd made quite the galactic splash a couple hundred years ago, but he'd never heard anything about a second species being discovered and wondered where the hell this other guy had come from or even what he looked like.
The girl was beside him as usual. "We've begun cannibalizing the pirate ship. The process will take several hours, though we're prioritizing more important components first in case we're interrupted."
Carter nodded. "Sounds good."
As he watched their guests disembark the ship, Carter couldn't help but frown. The big alien he's been warned about looked like he could easily cause more than his fair share of trouble. Nodding in their direction, he asked the girl, "Any weapons you can scan on them? And how about the kid? Is he really injured?"
The girl shook her head. "No weapons, although those two are pretty much weapons in and of themselves. Even if you had a full magazine, I'm not sure I'd put any money on you in a fight. Luckily, now that we have a captain, you won't be alone. We have some ancillaries ready to escort our guests to and from the med bay. As for the injured party, he seems legitimately in trouble, and the wounds are from before we showed up."
With a sigh, Carter turned away from the observation screen. "Alright. Sounds like we might as well get down there and say hi."
-
Carter conceptually knew how large the alien he was greeting was, but when he first opened the door, he had to fight the urge to take a defensive step back. Standing in front of him was some sort of anthropomorphic, nearly eight-foot-tall cat lizard, which gave off a vaguely Viking aura as it grinned down at the much smaller human.
When it spoke, Carter noticed the alien had a thick accent, thick enough to make him somewhat hard to understand, even though he seemed to be speaking Basic. "You must be the Captain! Good to meet ya!" Then, he turned to the other alien, the Vitexrā, who would have been just as intimidating despite her smaller size if Carter hadn't already had some idea what to expect. "See? I told ya they wouldn't bother inviting us on just to space us!"
The alien gave Carter a grin he suspected was meant to be more friendly than intimidating, but it failed on that account. Still, with the two large robotic frames at Carter's back, he knew that if push came to shove, he stood a reasonable chance of getting out of this alive. "Yeah, well, I'm not in the habit of spacing people who just need some help. I'm Captain Carter, by the way, and so long as you don't make any trouble, you won't get any from us. With that said, welcome aboard the Sybil."
Carter wasn't exactly a medical expert, but he'd been around the injured enough to see that the human the two aliens were escorting was in rough shape. Blood loss and shock, at the very least, probably caused by some sort of traumatic injury. Hopefully, the out-of-date medical facility on this ship would be up to the task, though Carter guessed the odds were more fifty-fifty.
The large alien's grin somehow grew broader and more toothy. "Call me Erik. This is Vanessa and Alen. Any help you can offer would be welcome!"
Carter refrained from commenting on how weird it was to hear the alien use such a standard human name, and instead simply nodded. "Alright, then follow me."
With that, Carter turned and led the way to the med bay, with the two robotic frames walking between him and their guests. He was reasonably sure he remembered the way from here, and if not, Sybil could say something. He had to fight the urge to turn and get another look at the two aliens, though.
As he finally approached the door he'd been looking for, Carter triggered the lights and pointed to the table. "Alright, put him there, and Sybil will see if she can't fix him up. I have to warn you, though, our facility isn't the most up-to-date, and given his condition, I'd say his odds are pretty even at this point."
As the large cat/lizard put the human down, the Vitexrā looked around as if searching for something before she spoke up, surprising Carter with her unexpected English accent. "Are there no medical personnel around?"
Carter was so surprised by the accent that he hesitated answering just long enough for the vixen to pop into existence and answer for him. "As if I need some wasteful organic assistance to do my job. And not to contradict my Captain, but I'd say this boy has a more than seventy-three percent survival chance. Now, if you will all please leave the room and let me do my job, I'll see if I can't save this human despite your best efforts!"
Carter sort of wanted to say something about her bedside manner but decided to keep his mouth shut as it served no purpose at this point. Besides, as the various metallic articulated arms around the table came to life, he decided he didn't want to see what the vixen considered medical assistance and decided to do as she'd commanded and leave the room.
However, the Vitexrā, Vanessa, he reminded himself, spoke up. "I am able to not release biologically active micro lifeforms when I so desire. May I remain to observe your treatment of the boy?"
As the vixen seemed to consider for a moment, Carter prepared himself for the usual belittlement, but surprisingly, she nodded. "Very well, but please observe from the corner. It would be best if you did not get in my way."
Vanessa nodded. "That is agreeable."
Carter looked back and forth between them, then decided it wasn't worth getting involved. Instead, he led the way out the door, and Erik followed. "Well, if you like, I can show you our mess hall while we wait, though I have to warn you, the food options are somewhat limited... Can you even eat human food?"
Erik grinned, making Carter wonder if the alien had another expression, and nodded. "Yup, for the most part! Don't worry. I can smell if you've got anything troublesome in there, but for the most part, if you can eat it, I can eat it. Don't waste your time on anything sweet, though; I apparently can't taste sweet!"
Carter raised an eyebrow, wondering if he'd heard that right or if it was just the accent. Then,m after a moment's hesitation, he responded. "Well, how do you feel about mint flavors?"

Next chapter, lets see how these folks hit it off!
My Wiki has all my chapters and stories, including the short series and stories that I write for an occasional change of pace or style!
If you like my work and want to support it, I do have a Patron! I also post short stories early there from time to time, so keep an eye out for those!

So I finally took the leap and ordered LDN via AgelessRX. The .5 mg dose comes next week🤞.
I’ve been studying up on LDN, actions, and dosage protocols as well as possible side effects to prepare for. I have a crummy doctor situation so I’m taking things into my own hands and plan on trying the LDN route.
I’m quite sensitive and am trying this for post viral dysautonomia, primarily my symptoms are tiredness(not sleepiness) and inflammation. I have a bunch of symptoms which I think reflect the chronic inflammation and possible immune response that’s stuck in the on position. I’m considering starting at .1 mg because I can be overly reactive to new things.
Any tips, thoughts, suggestions, tactics, or weird side effects I should keep in mind as I start this process? I welcome any links, videos, articles, or other information that you’ve found helpful or useful in your LDN journey.
Thanks😊🌱

My boyfriend [M17] and I [F15] are in a relationship for around 2 years now and during this time we've had quite some problems. The problems started when my boyfriend started to chat with another woman wich was older than him and he started to show interest in her while being in a relationship with me, i forgave him for this and later he asked me to make nudes wich i didn't really want to do and i still did it a few times but it has hit a point that i cant take it anymore he keeps asking me for more when i never asked anything from him. I asked around for some advice and people told me that this relationship we have is unhealthy and toxic, but i still stayed with him because i love him more than anything. Im not sure what to do and how we can fix this...i dont want to lose him but i dont want this relationship to damage me . I want to know if there's any way to fix this issue we have...

How do u guys feel about 50/50? Me and my good friend was having a conversation about how nowadays this is becoming a huge topic when it’s very simple. I grew up with my brother and mom. And he took care of me and my mother! He’s now 39 and I’m 23. My mom passed away almost 2 years ago.. so how my brother raised me, I expect my soon to be husband to do the same! Butttt unfortunately if u get the wrong man who is willing to take over the 100%, controlling seems to start coming in. I personally went thru a guy who did everything for me, but was controlling.. I don’t mind doing my part or a lil extra, that’s no problem, but I also want a man I can trust 100% and know that no matter what they will always make sure we have a happy life and I can be a stay at home mom! They life looks so fun when they do pampering days lol, so what you guys think?

(Edit: Grammar)
Hello!
I just joined the sub to share this.
I found an old post talking about a macro they made for building colonies in the space stage but provided no link to it, only instructions to use with an unknown program, so I decided to post my own creation that I've done in about 30 - 40 minutes.
This macro is used with Macro Recorder and is intended to use with maximized 1920x1080 screen (not full screen). I don't know if it will work correctly with another macro recorder or screen size.
If you don't like the layout it's pretty easy to learn how to modify commands although it can be a bit tedious.
To use this macro correctly:

• Have 1920x1080 screen (if you don't know, if you have a rectangular screen that is not widescreen you are most likely good, although you can check going to settings, system, display and seeing "Display Resoulution").
• Not have fullscreen, but maximized screen (tick fullscreen off and then click the button on the top left between "close" and "minimize", if your screen has a purple glitch create a shortcut to the spore.exe and set the "Run:" parameter to Maximized", launch the game from there and it should be ok)
• Place the space where I place my entertainment (the section that connects to the townhall and hase wide space) more or less between the name of the city and the "Next" arrow.

If you have any questions or I have not been clear enough/am breaking any rules please let me know! :D

Hi all, hey all.
I’m back. With my report that I promised.
And lol, was it a shit storm, and honestly? I’m extremely disappointed. It’s not that I didn’t expect it, but I wasn’t expecting it to be this bad.
So a quick rundown;
The used car market is a hit/miss game. That’s part of the fun, and for many, I’ll still recommend a used car. Better to own then to have your car towed away by the repo guys, or need to limit your driving by experience because it’s a lease.
However; the used car market at the moment is overpriced and full of junk.
From my experience checking cars this weekend in the neighborhood/around the surrounding neighborhoods, it’s clear people are passing off shit cars for the price of good ones.
It’s also clear that people were skipping maintaining their cars during the Covid years and are now selling ticking time-bombs.
All in, I checked about 13 cars and out of them, 4 were in pretty good shape but were overpriced. My favorite was a 2006 Honda Accord in great shape, and a wonderful interior inside and out. However, with 350k miles and needing new tires, asking $7000 was ridiculous. This would have been a $1000 car pre-Covid. I was picking some up, alongside some Hyundai Sonatas for $500-$600 pre-Covid to fix for my students. Same cars are demanding $5000+. Absolutely insane.
To keep this already long post from becoming a novel, I’ll give you all a quick rundown on the worse offenders and what to look out for.
(2002 Subaru Forester-Asking $6000)
Low mileage-75,720
Asked the typical questions: Are you the first owner? (No, second owner. Had it for 4 years.)
How much do you driven it? That’s really low!
(You know, it was my daughter’s car, she got a new one, I’m selling it for her. She only drove it to school and home. LIU Post To Woodside. Like 4 times a week for the years she’s owned it.)
Okay cool, so like 30k miles give or take in 4 years. Do you happen to know the mileage you brought the car at? (No, I forgot! Sorry!)
It’s okay, can I have the VIN? I just want to pull up the report and we can work on a price. (Why do you need it? It’s like the social of the car. It’s a great car, no accidents and I need it gone. Why so many questions?)
I need to know the car records and history. Mileage is low, and that’s unusual for this year and make. I’ll be quick and I’ll give you a free copy, no charge.
-at this point, the seller is still hesitant but eventually let me get it. The car mileage was indeed rolled back. When they purchased it, it was at 218k miles. There were also 3 reported accidents. Twice with the original owner and once with them. This was almost a dead giveaway since I could see work was done on the back of the car because the body was slightly misaligned. Wouldn’t you now it, rear end damage reporting in an injury. At this point, seller said I was wasting their time and left angrily saying I was lying.
The lesson to take here is to look at the body of the car. If the car body seems misaligned or the paint seems off, ask about any accidents or body work done.
If the year is older but the mileage seems low, make sure to see if the car had the mileage rolled back.
If the buyer is hesitant about allowing you the have the VIN, this is a huge red flag. This will allow you much more information about the car and its a must if you’re buying.
My next favorite is the $10k cars I see lining Astoria, Woodside, Sunnyside and beyond. I’ve been seeing them floating for years and always avoided them. I tended to avoid the “street dealers.” Wannabe car dealers without a shop, operating out of street parking they occupy endlessly.
I asked to check 3 cars and before I went, I asked to see the titles. I asked if they had clean titles. I was told yes. They were not. All 3 were savaged titles. 2 had mismatched mileage. No point in checking more.
Here, the lesson to learn is if you see different cars with similar signs and prices, it’s a “street dealer” and they’re selling most auction cars, mostly from PA. Avoid, you’ll mostly find lemons and you’ll regret it.
Lastly, let me cover a good car, and one I did end up picking up.
(2010 Honda CR-V -Asking $7500)
Mileage sitting at 220k.
Interior was clean, other than a worn drivers seat. Cloth seating, but easily cleaned with a good steam cleaner.
Extremely well maintained exterior, with a minor bump on the bumper. Looks like they hit a fire hydrant backing up at some point. So common you’ll quickly figure what it looks like haha.
Check engine light on. I appreciate the seller telling me about it immediately. No clue why. Within a few seconds I figured out why: faulty oxygen sensor. Easy fix, and not a big issue.
Tires have life on them and no major rust on the underbody. Amazing for a car up here. Ask about it; car came from Texas. That would explain it.
Only problem here was the price. I know if this guys brings it in to a dealer, he’s getting $2-4k tops, if he’s lucky. Selling privately will get you more money, but I need a fair price.
I explain this to him, point out the cost of the repair at a mechanic, and the value of the car. Offer him $3200 cash; we settle at $3300 and a beer. I’ll take it.
My student walked away with a new car, I’ll fix the sensor myself later this week and everyone leaves happy.
Now, deals like this will happen. But not often. You’ll have to hit the pavement and find them.
However, remember the tips I included here.
Remember not to overpay for a used car.
Do your research and don’t get caught holding a lemon.
Calling your insurance company before any purchase to understand the cost.
Do not get pressured by the seller.
Be respectful as a buyer and walk away if neither side can agree. It happens.
And all the best shopping! Please post any questions here! I’ll try my best to answer them!
I’m a college professor, not a mechanic, but I was lucky enough to spend my weekends in the garbage learning as a teenager. I didn’t have a dad around, and didn’t want to be helpless to my own kids in the future, not knowing how to help them with their cars.
