Those 2 HP calculators have arrived, well-packed, delivered by Evri.
It seems that the 17BII, on the right can be switched in and out of the RPN mode when required manually, need to read the manual later for more info, but now its boy dropping off at work time and a spot of shopping, in this stupid heat, I must be mad.
will confess that if those were in the calculator tray at the thrift store i'da bought them.
on an unrelated topic.......finding solder blobs and jumpers on cartridge fuses........WTF???

On the Bench Today: NEW A1 SIZE CUTTING MAT
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FM3ZP4V
One of the things that evidently didn't survive either move were any of my cutting mats; I've already got some marks on the marble countertop, so time for a new one. I've used the grey FISKARS ones for quite a while now, as they're only $30-38 in A1 size; but they're only a 3-layer mat, and the last one I got at Wally Wurlld just reeked of plastic outgassing for over a month.
Today I found this one; a 5-layer mat with a nice metric side, and with the current 20% discount it's only $26.
When it gets here in a few days I'll post real pics and first impressions. If you're needing a new mat, this could be a killer deal. No idea if those outside the US can find this one with similar discount.

The simple answer is that it’s impossible to make things idiot PROOF. The best you can hope for is idiot resistant, and achieving even that is a pretty tall order.

One of many reasons why I usually put a starting price that honestly reflects the minimum I'm willing to take; it weeds out the dickbags and bots and cheapskate Ferengis ( no offense, bd139 ) hoping to get something for nothing, leaving only serious bidders.

Should I be worry to get scammed?If it's lots of your listings, I'd guess globfly bidding bots. Your stuff is probably no minimum and some interesting term in one or more of your listings; the controller will often then direct their bots to camp out on all your listings.

You can refuse to sell to buyers with zero or low feedback, you're perfectly within your rights on the eBay terms of use; particularly if something feels off like international buyer and request to pay with escrow, or asking for a serial#/IMEI before paying, etc.
