- [deleted]
- if you ever want to know if it's legit, do a reverse image search on google. here's what i found... - colin Mar 18, 14:50 4
  - well, they have 84 of them in stock, so, anyone who thinks it is vintage is delusional. but that doesn't matter if you like it. -- nm - Andie Mar 18, 14:57
  - Indiana Jones fought Mongolians...therefore this bag is still good. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 18, 14:53 2

      - I just did a reverse image look-up (never did that before - neat). - Mel Profit Mar 18, 14:59
- Is it a Murse? -- nm - amoxy Mar 18, 14:47
- what is the location? -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:46 1
  - India I think... -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 18, 14:52
- is 15 inches big enough? if it is, then, buy it. -- nm - Andie Mar 18, 14:46 2
  - It comes in a 17in version as well. I was going to pull out a ruler before buying to make sure to get the right size. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 18, 14:49
  - why don't you tell us if it is? nm -- nm - groiny Mar 18, 14:47
- do you really need something else for groiny to mock you about? -- nm - Beaker Mar 18, 14:46 2

STIS: When selling used furniture on Craigslist, how do you price it relative to it's original price? - ty97 Mar 18, 14:39 13
- completely disregard the original price. See what similar items are going for. that's you're price. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:43
- I search Craigslist as though I was buying, get a sense of their stuff compared to mine, then price it. -- nm - TFox Mar 18, 14:42
- I usually price by the item. People need dining room tables, sofas et al. Age is important only to a degree. - David Mar 18, 14:41 10
  - (But if you feel confident it will sell, list it at 50% off and add obo) -- nm - David Mar 18, 14:41 9
    - I figure obo is always implied, and always list higher than what I want because everyone negotiates. - ty97 Mar 18, 14:44 8
      - note: if you start out too high, without saying OBO, a lot of people will not bother. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:48 6
        
        I don't think I've ever had a person on CL not try to haggle for a lower price. -- nm - kelly Mar 18, 14:55 3

        is that what I'm arguing? it is not. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:58
        
        I doubt that -- nm - ty97 Mar 18, 14:49 1
        
        yes. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:52
      - yeah, list low. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 14:44

- Taxing deposits is a dick move. But given how much of that is foreign funds and the propensity to not pay your taxes in that region... - Mop (190 lbs) Mar 18, 13:47 12
  - well i don't see why thats a dick move the alternative would have bees as equally bad for all - DaneDukeNuuk Mar 18, 14:09 4
    - There are a multitude of alternatives that could have been used, not least the ECB continuing to provide emergency liquidity assistance since it was - Loyola Mar 18, 14:19 3

    - so what is to stop the Russians from taking their deposits and going elsewhere with them after the levies? -- nm - Epiphany Mar 18, 14:00 4

        so the Russians might just say " eh, 9.9% is fair" and continue on as normal? -- nm - Epiphany Mar 18, 14:17 2
        
        It depends on their situation. That they could move the money freely in the EU is a huge benefit. - spamlet Mar 18, 14:43
        
        LOL i doubt it and i'm sure if they find somewhere where they can earn 0.2% more they'll move the money - DaneDukeNuuk Mar 18, 14:20
