Troll Bridgington posted:I got 3 days at the same time, I guess. So far they sent me 2 envelopes of cards, and one little baggy of coal. One of the envelopes had a slip talking about a puzzle contest involving the 12 gifts that get sent. Oh man, I've only gotten one thing so far the second day. My post office is a bit weird about things, takes them forever sometimes.

Casu Marzu posted:That is a surprisingly good looking Timex. Link to where you got it? Thank you. Sure: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261234354093 I think the link should work. Otherwise it's from ebay and the seller handle is twinboom781. He was very nice and prompt, shipped fast and the packaging was good. A+ will buy again. Edit: Note that the chronograph only goes up to 30 minutes and what looks like the hour indicator is 1/20th of a second measurement (which moves into position after stopping the chrono). Also, it has a dial illumination thingy which is neat and useful. Hellbeard has a new favorite as of 08:42 on Dec 13, 2013 |

concerned mom posted:I don't know what YLLS is but this is sweet, where's it from? Anyhow, the watch is available at Miniinthebox or alternatively Lightinthebox. I've bought a watch there before for under 10 dollars and it's been standing up to a lot of abuse for months now. These guys ship worldwide from China for free, it's kind of insane. E: That Timex from last page looks really good as well and the black NATO suits it very well. What kind of band does it originally come with?

These watches contain a complete monitoring system that will send all your personal info and communications to the People's Republic of China with the hope that there is valuable intel in the lot. That's how they can afford such a price.

Can anybody recommend me a sturdy capsule of some kind, with a handle, that would be great for carrying/moving a large amount of coins?

For only $10.99 on Amazon. And it's the Japanese version which is manufactured and presented better than the usual box-sets. I have Volume 2 because I love the Americanized Rubber Soul, but I never bought Volume 1 for some reason. Figured I'd snatch it now since a new U.S. albums box-set is slated to be released for the 50th anniversary of the Beatles coming to America and this box-set either becomes collectable or worthless. Either way, at $10.99 I can't complain.

I grabbed a box of these for x-mas. There's at least one autographed card inside, so we'll see who it is. I'll be picking up a box from last year's summer games next year.

Everlane sent me a $20 credit since I have never purchased anything from them, so I bought the cheapest thing they had, which was a $20 black tank top. With shipping, it was $1.75, so thanks Everlane!

This is my big Christmas present to myself this year. I used the laptop itself to take the photo of the box. My sisters and BiL and I are pooling to get our dad an iPad Air, and I made the actual purchase on that last night.

Logitech Powershell iPhone controller. All of the controls are analog, and it has a built in battery to charge the phone. GTA San Andreas was the main reason I got it. But i'll also be using it for Bastion, Limbo, King of Fighters, Terraria, and Sky Gamblers. Only caveat is the lack of a right thumbstick, but it's not a dealbreaker to me.

Something expensive: 800€ (2001 Ford Ka) Something cheap: 20€ (Velleman soldering station) I've been without car for a year, and while I could move around and make visits etc. using public transportation, nothing beats having a set of wheels for moving around! And the soldering station is a replacement for my 5€ cheapie that's falling apart.

My Fiancee said she wanted a pocketknife for Christmas. What's a thoughtful Goon to do for his Fiancee who enjoys utility, classiness and Audrey Hepburn movies (Breakfast at Tiffany's was one of the first movies we watched together)? A Tiffany and Co. / Victorinox Swiss Army Knife.

I bought the fight stick version of this when it was one sale here for £25. I then ripped the sticker off the front and loaded it with a Sanwa joystick and buttons. It's now a cracking fightstick and for loads less than the official Sanwa ones were selling for.

The wife let me go a bit crazy buying some new clothes this weekend so here is what I picked up. Pike Brothers Utility Shirt This is the most comfortable henley I have ever worn. I wear it as soon as I take my uniform off in the evenings. I am going to have to buy it in white too. It works as an amazing warm layer under button-downs. This is my second piece of Pike Brothers clothing and I am really impressed with the quality and feel of the fabrics. Their stuff feels like it will last for years. Natural Selection Chapman Wool Jacket Tried this on at a local shop in Nuremberg and I had to buy it. The fit is great (even better when I lose a few pounds) and it layers really nice. If any of you Bavarian folks find your way to Nuremberg you should check out the shop Bube und Konig there. They have an awesome selection of Pike Brothers and 3sixteen gear there along with Wolverine 1000 mile boots. The guys who work there will hook you up and are really nice.
