Linsoul Tin T2 memory foam eartips (3x)
image
Ordered them before in May (sold and fulfilled by Linsoul AudioDE), shipped from China. But for about a month nothing happened. Then they told me the shipping company didn’t ship them, then the replacement’s tracking info didn’t get updated for almost another month (different shipping company) and even though the seller showed me a screenshot of their view of the tracking info (“Depart from facility to service provider”) this step doesn’t show up when I’m looking at it. So after ~2 months still no delivery in sight (despite Amazon telling me they’re gonna be delivered today due to an estimate on their side).

Now…they’re available from Amazon (sold my Linsoul AudioDE and fulfilled by Amazon) and I’m getting them tomorrow. Without having to pay for shipping.

Linsoul’s customer service has been friendly every time but I’m tired of waiting. They’re not really something essential but I know the eartips fit (they’re the same that came with my IEMs) and this was the only listing I could find where I was actually able to buy them. This made it kinda frustrating to deal with the whole shipping situation.

Oh, and I got some more “Die drei ???” CDs on Saturday.

Got some more Die 3 ??? CDs. Except for some non-numbered episodes I’m only missing 32 now (~1/8 of all released numbered episodes).
I’m also running out of shelf space for both CDs and manga…maybe it’s time to reorganize some stuff.

ive ordered a couple of ipods
mostly for my collection and some for offline no notifications music
there are ways to stop it on my phone but im hating the shitty audio quality it outputs
i have a classic 5.5g 80gb, nano 3g 8gb, shuffle 2g 1gb, classic 2g 20gb on the way
and i forgot a touch 5g 16gb, ive seen cases that add sd card expansion on the lighting port so its a idea

So far the nano and 2nd g classic arrived

iPod touch arrived

Got a couple cheap knives, better than I was expecting for $12 shipped total. Now I actually have pocket knives to use for whatever. And if I break or lose one… Meh?

Also got a cheap Pakistani Damascus knife, it’s surprisingly actually Damascus… Of some kind. Will test it at some point and see if it’s actually strong or sharp or not later lol

Unfortunately there’s a reason why steel from Pakistan has such a bad rep. A lot of those Damascus knifes made with Pakistani steel is often not hardened. I hope you’re lucky and yours is.

it seems to be sharp, and from one of the … less shitty makers lol
besides, i got it on a bid for $13 shipped :stuck_out_tongue:
will mess around with it later, not expecting much but could be neat if its legit because its from one of the only sellers that still does everything bid only, so can still get the actual (if cheaply made) damascus for reasonable prices.
though ive already had to fix the handle, meh

its not one of those lol
if you get ones from actual pakistani makers, they are just cheaply made damascus, instead of the “we just shipped this garbage to the US and rebranded it to sell it as a “US” item to make money” like above
same seller i got mine from has a bunch of the other pakistani made knives. and even axes but there was no way i was going to pay more than like $15 as a test of the make of them.
also, if its actually listed “buy it now” its a massive red flag, the bid ones are almost always the “real” pakistani knives that are decent enough.
also, more marketing = more fake :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, like those rhombus knives they started advertising a few months ago everywhere here. 5 amazing knives for 20€ or so. How? It’s garbage, that’s how.

Speaking of knives, I got a small knife from an oriental food store.
Was ~5€ and despite its size it has a wider blade than most vegetable knives here which is why I got it.
Overall length is ~19,5cm and the blade is 10cm.

It wasn’t dull at all but I already sharpened it and now it’s even sharper.

just dont split your dingus

why would I handle a knife while being naked?

you always gotta cut towards yer meat, and clothing dont stop everything pardner
