I was walking through the toy aisle at Target when I found this thing and had a VIOLENT AND IMMEDIATE FLASHBACK to when JP first came out and they had a bunch of REALLY COOL T Rex toys that I would have sold one of my scrawny small-child limbs for but my mother wouldn’t get me one because they were “too violent and also ate people” 🙁

hnn I WANT IT SO BAD

on closer inspection, it makes a lot of really obnoxious noises and is also Too Expensive. BUT FEAR NOT I found this slightly smaller dude wedged in the back!

IT HAS BITE ACTION, AND THAT’S THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS

now we enter the testing phase

yup. looks good.

Extreme Chompin T-Rex says IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS

Can we take a moment to appreciate that we can use this as a rosetta stone to say “EXTREME CHOMPIN’ “ in four languages?

OH SHIT YOU’RE RIGHT, let me check the garbage to see if it’s still there! hopefully I didn’t destroy it in my excitement

*roar sound effect*

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

(secret bonus: the other side of her tag)

There’s more!

If you’re European, in a couple of weeks you will be denied any and all access to fandom contents on Tumblr and everywhere else on the internet. Here’s why.

On June, 20th the JURI of European Parliament approved of the articles 11 and 13 of the new Copyright Law. These articles are also known as the “Link Tax” and the “Censorship Machines” articles.

Articles 13 in particular forces every internet platform to filter all the contents we upload online, ending once and for all the fandom culture. Which means you won’t be able to upload any type of fandom works like fan arts, fan fictions, gif sets from your favourite films and series, edits, because it’s all copyrighted material. And you won’t also be able to share, enjoy or download other’s contents, because the use of links will be completely restricted.

But not everything’s lost yet. There’s another round of voting scheduled for the early days of July.

What you can do now to save our internet, is to share these informations with all of your family members and friends, and to ask to your MEP (the members of the European Parliament from your country) to vote NO at the next round, to vote against articles 11 and 13.

Here you can find more news and all the details to contact your MEP:

https://saveyourinternet.eu

Also, sign and share this petition:

We have just a couple of weeks to stop this complete madness, don’t let them dictating the way we enjoy our internet.

#SaveYourInternet now!

It’s funny how y’all will reblog any and all US things but when whole Europe might lose access to internet then everything is quiet.

Are you fucking serious? Is this really happening? I’m European and I didn’t know a single thing about this

We used to have a
great relationship. I signed up for my account the morning of my 18^th
birthday. But, we’d started our relationship two years earlier,
when I started making purchases and selling on my dad’s account.
Things were great at the beginning. Buyers and sellers could leave
honest feedback for each other. You could receive payment by cash in
the mail or PayPal would pay each of $5 if I referred someone to use
them. And the sheer range of things people had for sale was
astounding!  I sold enough to help pay for college, to buy my first
car, to fund a trip to Europe with my Girl Scout troop. I honed my
restoration abilities and refined my selling methods. I was good. I’d
often list 20-100 items a month.

Then the policy
changes began. Sellers could no longer leave negative feedback for
buyers who didn’t pay or who harassed them. I stopped selling for a
while, then returned. The vast majority of my buyers were great,
averaging out to one minor problem for every 50 transactions or so.
Buyers started leaving less and less feedback and I changed my policy
from leaving feedback for every buyer to only those who left for me
first. After all, why bother? It’s not like feedback ratings meant
anything anymore.

Later on, they
decided to start pushing for stores and started driving out the
individual sellers. eBay saw a competitor in Amazon and started
trying to match them. My listings became more difficult to find,
sometimes even impossible, if I didn’t meet their metrics for what
qualified as a good seller. No, I can’t offer free shipping on
every item; then I’m losing money on $3 and $5 sales. They no
longer sorted by ending soonest as default and went with their own
“best matches” of who they liked more. Again, I stopped selling
for a while. But, I returned. I learned how to work their system so I
was always near the top.

They discontinued
TurboLister for creating and managing offline listings in favor of
pushing their paid subscription program. Don’t pay for a month? All
of your saved listing templates vanished. It became impossible to
create listings offline and save them for later. I adapted, as I had
for years, and worked out a new method of saving listings.

And then they
decided to force returns. It didn’t matter what return policy a
seller stated, they would accept it and pay for the return shipping
if eBay so decided. Yeah, I stopped selling for a while and came
right back. After all, I thoroughly examine all of my sales items and
never have problems with people wanting returns. Until I did and eBay
declared I would pay the shipping, still pay the final value fee, and
refund the buyer the full cost of the item and shipping to them.
Sure, I was able to call in eBay’s seller protection program and
get most of it taken care of; but, it was a week of headache that
never should have happened in the first place.

By now, I recognized
the relationship had grown abusive. Memories of all the tight times
where selling $100 on eBay got me through kept me coming back. I kept
thinking, “I might need to sell there again in case there’s an
emergency.”

This week, they
invoiced me for return shipping on an item I was told was covered.
Then they added another $15 fee on it. Now, they want $35 for
nothing. I called customer support and they would not waive the fees.
No matter what I tried, they insist I owe them this money.

And that’s the
last draw. I’ve closed my account and they can lose a seller who
has been with them since the beginning over $35. I’ve learned how
to do online sales and have been running a shop on my website for
years now. I can provide the best customer service possible without
having to deal with their asinine bureaucracy and exorbitant fees.
It’s hard to leave someone you’ve been with for so long and had
great times with. But, there has to come a time when you value
yourself more than the crumbs that are thrown your way every now and
then.

So here’s to a new
chapter. No more relying on other selling platforms. Time to stand on
my own and pour all of my focus into NewGrayMare.com.

If there’s
something special you’re looking for, feel free to message me! I
have a large inventory ranging from Rainbow Brite and Care Bears to
every generation of My Little Pony to Disney plush and handmade
customs that has yet to be listed.

In mid-March 2019, eBay is going to change their Buy It Now listings so that they are ALL “Good Till Canceled”.

What this means:  You list your BIN.  If it doesn’t sell within 30 days, eBay relists it … and charges you a $0.35 insertion fee, unless you have free listings available to draw from.

Be careful, you could end up paying again and again on the insertion fees as eBay relists you items month after month!

And this is yet another reason I have moved away from eBay as my main selling platform. They were wonderful back in 2001 when I first started. My account is old enough to vote. And I will no longer sell there.

You can now find items in my own store: The New Gray Mare or on Etsy. I am currently testing out Mercari and will be investigating Letgo as well. If you have any other recommendations, I’d love to hear them!
