Canadian prices. I apologize for the shit picture quality.


Mario Power Tennis (GCN) - $16.99

Came complete and in great shape.


Dragon Warrior (NES) - $3.99

Just the cartridge, but is in great shape. Haven't put it in yet.


Moleskine 9x14 cm Notebook - $11.95

Overpriced, but I needed a good little notebook.


Pepper Brew Gourmet Pepper Relish Hot Sauce - $10.00

Delicious. Got it at the Canada Day Market.

eesh, I wouldn't have done it that way. I would have written a letter, informing of the issue and the laws, threatening to take them to a claims court unless they pay the fuck up. Either way, take them to court!

It's been a while since I've posted, but I got motivated to show my pick ups so far this year. Most are recent, but a few are from a few months back.
Quote:

New MBP with retina, 16gb ram


Apple TV




Huge Picasso book


Filled to the brim with text and images


Which looks great on the shelf of my new side table (from Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams)


John Varvatos shoes (love em)



Contra artwork I got at an art show here in LA in March. Love it.

Now on to the gaming goodies:


25th Anniversary DSiXL I bought online


Perfect condition - except for a scratch on the lower screen that wasn't advertised on the amazon page, so I got $20 taken off


Retro Game Boy Micro in great shape


Everything works well on it


Two new games for my Micro


3DS case to use some expiring points and Pokemon Black (will I actually finish a Pokemon game for the first time in 10 years?)


Some Vita love. Long ass game that I've put 25 or so hours into and got a little bored with it.
Until next time...

:P

I, too, got a sword. Swapped out the buttons for some sanwas as a placeholder until I decide what color I want to get. I like the blue. They match the LEDS.

Haven't posted in quite a while so a heads up and sorry for the length!

Well, I got myself some workout gear, running headphones and a Fuelband for keeping track of it all.






BT's new album as well as new iPad case. I got sick of the standard apple one.





Finally upgraded the MacBook Pro. My hard drive cable was dieing on me (which I didn't figure out until after I replaced the old hard drive), so now I have an SSD, an HDD in the optical bay, and 8GB of RAM. It's running reallllllll nice now.





Games!!!






Vita Love… Got it for BART and it is absolutely the best way to start and end the work day. Got a 16GB card for it to. The Vita was used but altogether cost me 250. Really pleased and am looking forward to AC3 and LBP on it when they come!





60GB Fat PS3 died and after several attempts and revival (worked twice), it is finally gone for good. So it was time to reinvest in and this deal seemed great. I traded in Otergame5 plus $33 for the Uncharted Series at Best buy. Lets go!

Is that legal where you are? Nobody would think they could get away with that in NZ, let alone actually try it. It's almost impossible to fire someone here. It actually goes too far the other way, I think.

Wow, are you series?

I wouldn't consider that attitude in the slightest. I don't mind doing extra work but if I am at work I am damn well signing in to get paid! Sounds like a good lawsuit.

Just got my Samsung Galaxy S3 so I will post pictures of that once I figure out how I can take a picture of it without using my phone which I am taking a picture of...

Have only given it a good full listen once unfortunately. It is hard finding an hour in my day to sit still and listen which really is the best way to listen to albums like this and MS and TBU.

As for this album it is a different direction than I was expecting but it is still amazing.

I am still learning how to hold them. It's a lot more difficult than I though. They always freak out when I touch them and will raise their spike.

The worst is when they get comfortable on my hand, then suddenly something alarm them then they will raise their spike in full force in millisecond right onto my palm. It's like holding a ticking bomb lol. Of coz I can always wear glove but I want to train myself better at raising them.

As I failed to post them in last month's thread, here are my three most notable pickups from June:



A bare-bones FLAC player that also doubles as a phone of sorts, a pair of sturdy headphones sporting a flimsy-ass microphone and something genuinely pleasant to listen to.

Are these the complete series? Or just the movies with bonus stuff? Do they have eng subs and are they region free?

One of my favorite Mech animes. Always wanted to have the blu-rays but they were just the movies.
