17:13.03Snake12534Hi Blast, all.
17:13.14blast007blast it all
17:13.34Snake12534I just woke up.
17:13.46Snake12534It way too early here.
17:14.47Snake12534Bllast
17:14.51blast007I woke up at 3:39AM.
17:15.06Snake12534Do you use Amazon?
17:15.30Snake12534You stayed up till 3.
17:15.31blast007Cell phone went off from an email, which was a report about someone swearing on my server.  So I banned 'em.
17:15.44blast007nope, went to bed at 9:50PM.
17:16.03Snake12534Oh. Still working late eh?
17:16.05blast007then I stayed up 'till like 5:30 AM and went back to sleep until about 7 or 8.
17:16.15blast007and yes, I use amazon
17:16.48Snake12534Does amazon require social security number?
17:17.16blast007no
17:17.20blast007for buying?
17:17.30Snake12534My uncle and I want to use amazon/ebay. We do not know which one is the safest.
17:17.38blast007I don't recall *ever* having to provide my SSN when buying something online..
17:17.47blast007and if you do, it's probably a scam :P
17:18.06Snake12534so www.amazon is a scam? :/
17:18.08blast007I think the only thing like that I've seen is with the VISA protection stuff.. they want the last 4 digits, I think.
17:18.11blast007what?
17:18.17blast007no
17:18.26blast007amazon does not request your SSN
17:18.32Snake12534They want the whole SSN on amazon.
17:18.37blast007wtf
17:18.46blast007dude, get rid of the viruses from your computer
17:19.05blast007you've probably got some virus that's redirecting you to bad sites
17:19.09Snake12534I was trying to buy a GBA SP adapter, I decided to sign up for 10$ gift card.
17:19.32blast007really, where did it ask for your SSN?
17:19.59Snake12534And I immediaetly stopped when it said SSN
17:20.15blast007[citation needed]
17:20.37Snake12534goto www.amazon, and goto the ad saying 10$ off purchase.
17:20.50blast007give me a link
17:20.52blast007I see no such ad
17:21.07Snake12534Okk
17:21.24blast007and it's www.amazon.com, not www.amazon
17:23.41Snake12534http://www.amazon.com/gp/cart/view.html/ref=gno_flyout_viewcart?ie=UTF8&hasWorkingJavascript=1
17:24.05blast007that's your shopping cart... I can't see your cart
17:24.11blast007link me to the actual offer
17:25.31Snake12534http://www.amazon.com/gp/cobrandcard/marketing.html/ref=cobrand_ch_t1_huc_40_nm?pr=conplcc&inc=plccgatefomgc&ts=d2b2y3t4fszh4wzb0fjozg84wdsje4s&flavor=EXCFIN&plattr=nomath&ad=PL10&place=vc&imp=A1615J9KY15GT7
17:25.59blast007that's a credit card application
17:26.34blast007so, yeah, a CREDIT CARD is going to require your SSN
17:26.46blast007Just buying stuff online does not.
17:26.55Snake12534Oh
17:27.10blast007helps to read the words on the screen
17:27.15Snake12534Which is better? eBay or amazon?
17:27.29blast007"Limited time offer: A $10 Amazon.com Gift Card will instantly be loaded into your Amazon.com Account upon the approval of your credit card application."
17:27.42blast007they're completely different
17:27.47blast007eBay is an auction site
17:27.55blast007Amazon is a merchant site
17:28.34Snake12534Let me repharse : Which one is the safest? Which one do you prefer?
17:28.56blast007I use amazon more
17:29.19blast007but when I buy on amazon, I try to make sure the items are sold and fulfilled by amazon, not some third party merchant.
17:29.37kierrai use both
17:29.38Snake12534Which is the best percentage a seller should have on Amazon?
17:29.59kierrabut with ebay always make sure you know the price of item elsewhere
17:30.12blast007Snake12534: what kind of stupid question is that?
17:30.25Snake12534I agree Blast, but the things I want are only sell mu third parties.
17:30.30kierrasilly buyers bid up an item higher than you can get it elsewhere
17:31.00blast007well, with eBay, you have to go into the auction knowing how much you would want to spend at most, and then let it go if it goes past that.
17:31.08blast007and/or snipe stuff ;)
17:31.32Snake12534is 90% good on amazon?
17:31.35blast007no
17:31.46blast007You said best, so the BEST would be 100%  :P
17:32.15blast007I'd say shoot for 98% or higher
17:32.15Snake12534?What is good enough to be trusted
17:32.33blast007and look at the total number of sales as well
17:32.38blast007same for ebay
17:32.44Snake12534Dang, the sellers for GBA SP charger are usually around 93%
17:32.47blast007if someone has 100%, but only 2 sales, maybe avoid them
17:33.00kierrayep
17:33.08blast007what is a GBA SP?
17:33.22blast007Gameboy Advance Super Purple?
17:33.35Snake12534Importer has close to 5000 ratings, 93%
17:34.16Snake12534no
17:34.26blast007Gameboy Advance Special
17:34.44blast007well, Game Boy, actually
17:35.24Snake12534http://www.amazon.com/CHARGER-NINTENDO-GAMEBOY-ADVANCE-Game-Boy/dp/B008216WOW/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1359221678&sr=8-5&keywords=GBA+SP+Charger
17:35.44Snake12534Is this item trusted?
17:36.57Snake12534Hello? :-)
17:37.09blast007probably
17:37.21Snake12534ok
17:37.38blast0076% negative feedback in the last 30 days, though
17:37.45Snake12534ty,  1st using amazon
17:37.47blast007out of 20137 sales
17:38.14Snake12534so the item isn't trusted?
17:38.16blast007let me see if a vendor I was looking at has chargers
17:39.17blast007http://www.nintendorepairshop.com/products/854-GBA-SPNintendo-DS-AC-adaptorcharger-3rd-party/
17:40.08blast007never bought from them, though, so I can't say anything about them
17:40.41blast007I found their site when looking for an AC adapter for my NES
17:40.56Snake12534How expenisve tho.
17:41.10blast007you can't click links or something?
17:41.34Snake12534I did.
17:41.51blast007Okay, then you can't read?
17:42.49Snake12534I might reconsider amazon and buy the charger already.
17:43.53Snake12534its 7 bucks plus shipping.
17:43.58blast007up to you where to buy it from
17:44.02blast007just giving you some other options
17:44.45Snake12534I am going to look at ebay asnwell.
17:46.17Snake12534ebay looks cheaper :-)
17:47.39Snake12534http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-For-Nintendo-DS-Gameboy-Advance-SP-AC-Power-Cord-/370744772065?pt=Video_Games_Accessories&hash=item56521c45e1

18:11.12Snake12534:(
18:11.19blast007doesn't look like it sold though
18:11.20blast0070 bids
18:11.28Snake12534OMG
18:11.44Snake12534I could had took it!!! :(
18:12.32blast007do you or your uncle have a paypal account?
18:13.05Snake12534I don't have a credit card and my uncle only has VISTA
18:13.25blast007oh, yeah, you need Windows 8 to use paypal
18:13.29blast007Vista is too old
18:13.30Snake12534VISA*
18:13.32blast007;)
18:13.45blast007you need paypal to use eBay
18:14.00Snake12534What?!
18:14.19Snake12534is it required?
18:14.29blast007one way or another, generally
18:14.40Snake12534NOOO!
18:14.45blast007what is wrong?
18:15.05Snake12534guess like,  i am using amazon then
18:15.07blast007something wrong with paypal?
18:15.26Snake12534My uncle doesn't want to use PayPal
18:15.29blast007why?
18:15.49Snake12534Ask him.. he is at work now.
18:16.53Snake12534When I turn 18, can I get my own credit card?
18:17.27blast007no, have to wait until you are 30 now
18:17.30blast007laws changed
18:17.47Snake12534Really? :/
18:17.49blast007no
18:18.31Snake12534Is it possible for someone underage to get a credit card?
18:19.13blast007parent or guardian would have to co-sign on the card
18:19.36blast007so then if you screw up, it affects THEIR credit score
18:20.02Snake12534Amazon rules say you must be at least 18, can I still go on Amazon?
18:20.24Snake12534oh ok
18:20.48blast007your uncle will have to sign up then
18:21.03blast007also, something to consider for when you turn 18 is a secured credit card
18:21.04Snake12534Nah, I am using his credit card.
18:21.18blast007https://origin.bankrate.com/finance/credit-cards/10-questions-before-getting-a-secured-credit-card-1.aspx
18:21.26Snake12534Such as?
18:21.52blast007?
18:22.42Snake12534Nevermind.
18:22.56blast007I was able to get a $1000 credit card without co-signing by doing a secured card.  But that might be harder to do now.
18:23.19Snake12534I can just sneak in to my unce's wallet and get his credit card, and shop online.
18:23.24blast007..................
18:23.58Snake12534When he is in the shower or sleeping early for wor.
18:24.23Snake12534He sleeps VERY early
18:24.33Snake12534at 8 PM
18:24.47Snake12534everyday but the holidays.
18:25.19Snake12534Staring ar 8:45 I can get his card.
18:25.32Snake12534and buy on amazon.
18:26.04Snake12534Sounds good blast?
18:26.12blast007no, that sounds bad
18:26.19blast007and illegal
18:26.32Snake12534He is my uncle though.
18:26.37blast007so?
18:26.42blast007doesn't make it legal
18:26.43Snake12534not a sranger.
18:26.50blast007are you that dense?
18:27.21Snake12534And of course, I won't do any of that sort of crap, I love him.
18:27.33blast007why would you have to sneak his card out?  just have him order it.
18:27.52Snake12534But if had a worser nephew, he should be more secured of his wallet :/
18:28.10Snake12534I said I can, not I will.
18:28.14blast007the fact that we're having this conversation is bad enough.
18:28.31blast007so please just shut up if you're going to continue on this topic.
18:28.32Snake12534I always ask him for permission.
18:28.56Snake12534ok.
18:29.27Snake12534Blast, why don't you play on gu league?
18:30.12blast007because I barely play the game as it is
18:30.44Snake12534You are on strayers all the time :-)  why not bzf?
18:31.30blast007what?
18:31.55Snake12534bzflag.
18:32.03blast007what about it...?
18:32.09Snake12534IRC I mean.
18:32.23Snake12534Nvm.
18:32.27blast007what did strayers have to do with IRC?
18:32.35Snake12534gtg
18:33.33blast007but yeah, I'm not using the webchat interface on strayer's site, which is actually http://webchat.freenode.net/
18:33.42blast007I use a REAL IRC client, not some crappy website
