Why are phones so cheap on amazon.com?

February 5, 2010 - 2:26 pm 3 Comments

i really want the blackberry tour and i found one on amazon.com.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002GJTS3I/ref=asc_df_B002GJTS3I1015672?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&tag=googlecom09c9-20&linkCode=asn&creative=380341&creativeASIN=B002GJTS3I

however, if i get the phone at a verizon wireless store, it costs around $200 but why does this one only cost $50?
is it because it is used? and could i still use it even though my phone hasnt expired yet?

Actually, if you bought it from the Verizon website, it would be $100 (with a 2 year contract).

Cell phones are almost always much less expensive at authorized retailers than at the carrier’s store and they’re always less expensive online. The authorized retailers are willing to accept little or nothing on the sale of the handset to entice people to buy from them. They make their money on a percentage of the plan.

Please suggest hotels or website for my trip?

I am going with a group of friends to Brazil in July. We already have hotels for Rio and the Amazon because we are going with a tour company but we plan on travelling on our own after that. But i still need hotel in Salvador Bahia.

Hey,

I recommend you this website: http://www.salvador-hotel.com/

and also these ones about Morro de São Paulo and Itacaré:

You can’t miss these places! Really wonderful!

How do I set up guitar hero world tour for the 360?

December 15, 2009 - 3:50 pm 1 Comment

I got it off of Amazon and I think I’m missing a part for the drums. I also can’t get the guitar to work. It has battery in it and all. The only thing I can get to work is the mic.

what you do is. If you cant get your controler to work theres a little white button on your 360 hold it and then while holding it hit the guide button on your gutiar hero contorler durms set mike or whatever. then it should work. Then go to carer and make a guitar rocker and a gutiar twhitch will both give you achivements. If you make a custom charactor and custom guitar that is. And then your ready to go.

Motorcycle touring in France? Roscoff (NW France)-Bordeaux-St Tropez?

September 25, 2009 - 5:15 pm 1 Comment

Amazing- there are no books about motorcycle touring in France on Amazon. In fact, there are only a couple for the whole of europe. America by contrast has loads. I am planning a trip from London- Cornwall- Plymouth- Roscoff- Bordeaux- St Tropez. I have 4 days to burn it from Roscoff (NW Tip of France) to St Tropez. I only want to take A or B roads. I want to know which are the best ones. Touring websites promise everything but deliver nothing as far as I can see. Anyone know the best route (or part of the best route) to take? Or even a good book/ website? Many Thanks.

I took 21 days for a road trip in France. I had terrible luck finding routes ahead of time, however I just took a map and went with it! The best time!!!

Finding the small villages off the most traveled roads was by far the best traveling I have done.

Have fun. I really liked the Loire Valley region- it was VERY nice.

How Can I Make My Hair Look Like This?

How can I make my hair look like this?

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000TWMMA.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

If you’re wondering, the link above is Christina Aguilera’s hair from when she was on the UK tour for her album "Stripped". I love how it had nice waves and it was a little bit curly. I know I have to scrunch my hair, but does somebody know what products I need to use? It’d be greatly appreciated! I wanna use this look for the first day of school.
By the way, my hair is wavy and very thick.

Look for a diffuser, those work the best. And plus I read in a hair magazine Christina Aguilera uses a diffuser to make her hair curl like that.

In which book did H P Lovecraft write about his visit to Florida?

September 15, 2009 - 11:12 am 1 Comment

Greetings,

I work as a historic tour guide in Saint Augustine, Florida. Sometimes, I do research to develop new tours or stories for tours we already offer. About a year ago, I noticed in a bio that Lovecraft had visited Saint Augustine at some point. Since H. P. is known to have written a few travelogues, I was very interested in what sites he might have visited while here.

I purchased Miscellaneous Writings from Arkham House Publishing through Amazon. There are a few travelogues in here, but none of them mention his trip to Florida. I contacted Arkham about the remaining travelogues. The responce e-mail simply stated that they (Arkham) didn’t know where I could find the other travelogues.

Has anyone seen this information? If I could pin-point the title of the correct travelogue, I would at least have a chance of hunting down a copy to buy or borrow.

As far as I know Lovecraft never wrote a travelogue containing reference to Florida. However, his story ‘The Thing on the Doorstep’ is set in Florida. His long-lost manuscript of ‘Shadow out of Time’ was rewritten and transcribed by his friend Robert Barlow in Florida but contains no mention of the state.

Thailand or Brazil for 6mounths to a year (maybe more depending)?

September 11, 2009 - 4:17 pm 3 Comments

I am a 22 year old california guy who has saved up and am selling my car to break free of work and school to run off to an exotic place and I’m completely torn on the two.

I’ve been doing reaserch on both places and so far both destinations have what I’m looking for…
Thailand: Cheap, beautiful beaches, freindly to Americans, somewhat safe to lone travellers, great night life(full moon ceremonies), cool lookin tours… but I heard the culture is way different and It’s easy to accidently offend someone (touch their head, point at your feet?)

Brazil: Not as cheap as Thailand but less than the states, has the beaches, people are warm and welcoming (plus blonde haird Americans are exotic I hear true?), geourges women (Im single), highest rated nightlife(rio, new year, carnival), amazon tours… but I’m told that travelling alone there can be chancy and not many speak eglish (eu falo um pouco)
think I’ll have enough money to live for a while in either places then (work?)

hello jordan.. i’m from brazil and i think you commit a little mistake by classifying this country as exotic… it’s a western coutry after all. moreover, there are lots of blonde people in south brazil, as it was colonized mostly by northern italians, slavs and germans.

anyway, indeed brazilians tend to like foreigners, you probably will be able to make many friends.. but take care, there are lots of scumbags of both sexes. many women like americans and wish to marry them, not all are sluts… some are honest who like foreigners and want a better place to live , but be careful. indeed few people can understand english, especially spoken english (i’m one of those who barely can understand spoken english, if said in a fast pace). concerning working, you can work as an english teacher, maybe many schools hire a native speakers.

about violence, i think it’s no SO serious… avoiding drug dealers is a must, obviously.

by the way, amazon, iguaçu falls, rio de janeiro, and other nice places are all far apart from each other, so you will need to travel a lot.

good luck
