Evidently, when I set up my account here almost a year ago, I used my wife's ipad. Long story short, some one just came in the room saying "you got an email" from Polk followed by "are you buying more stuff?
Even worse, can't get the email contact section to reset to my email address... Gonna be a long night:(

    Count your blessings. A week or so ago I simply changed my email address in the Settings... after which I could no longer post/PM/start new threads or anything for almost a week, though I could still log in (and view all Flea Market items??).

    Only through the perseverance of Polks CS Dept. was I able to get back to business as usual.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Yes brother I am laughing not at you but truly with you! The dudes on here who actually consult with their wives about purchases are the ones that cause me to scratch my head. In my house the unspoken rule is "don't ask don't tell" and all shall be well, or at least cordial!

    I try to keep my wife in the loop when I make purchases. However, sometimes purchases either get "forgotten" about because we have been busy or I only tell half the story.
