Got a couple of things in these past few weeks.

1. 2016 Toyota Rav 4 bought for my sister and I. Will mostly be used to commute to work and taking my sister to and from school and her classes.

2. 4GB stick of RAM for my old Sony Vaio VPCF1190X, for a total of 8GB. Costed me 20 bucks. Also an ESC and an F12 key since I manged to lose them a few years back, as well as a new DC in jack so that I can charge it properly.

3. Bought a bricked Moto G 1st Gen for around 20 bucks on eBay, needed to repair the screen for my uncle's, and I wanted to do it for as cheap as possible, whilst still using legit parts. Easily swapped a broken screen for a good one.

4. Trinity Audio Phantom Sabres. Bought them off of a guy on reddit for 100 USD, practically brand new. Comes with a buttload of accesories, from different sound filters and eartips, as well as 3 different cables. Will be for when I want some more detail and clarity in my music than I can get with my Shure SE215s. Images courtesy of original owner.

6. A new phone! Managed to win an auction for a 32GB Moto X Pure on ebay, supposedly in like new condition, but I'll be able to tell for sure when I actually get it. Will most definitely need to buy a glass screen protector for that 5.7 in screen, and a case is always a must as well.

Got my 5 micro USB charging boards in from eBay. I bought them for Gameboy Color LiPo battery mod. I've already installed one in place of my old board from a cheap battery pack.

Still waiting for my replacement battery for the gbc, the new housing for it and the clear blue buttons for it. Also waiting for a pair of clear Gameboy Color buttons and my order from handheld Legends.
Also bought a repro copy of Pokémon red. I bought it to see if it would work with Pokémon stadium and because it was on sale for $5

Also did a power LED mod and both my original Gameboy and the Lipo charging Gameboy Color. The LED is a little bright so I'm going to install a resistor when I do the backlight and front light mod on them.

Bought a Graph-Link USB cable for my TI calculators from eBay.

I collect them cheap from Goodwill stores, anywhere between $10 and $20 each. I have an 82, an 83, an 83 Plus, and an 89 so far. Still need the 84 Plus variants, and the 85/86 models. I don't care for the 92+ models, as they don't travel well in the pockets.

I got the Bioshock collection for my birthday last week, and last sunday's convention netted me Resident Evil 4 (GC), a 2DS, Ace Combat 4, a PC Engine controller (so that I can finally use the damn thing), a combo set with a motion plus and nunchuck controller, Uncharted 2, an extra Gameboy Player, and a Gamecube ASCII Keyboard Controller (which is literally a Gamecube controller with a keyboard added to the center). In addition to that I managed to go to the Symphony of the Goddesses concert yesterday where I bought the t-shirt and poster combo.

Setting up a local trade for a stock Galaxy N3DS XL for my modded one with just the 4 gb card installed, plus another $50 for it.

Not bad and I can also modify the Galaxy N3DS XL again with the DSiWare modification.

My Haruhi set came from Americaland a week early! :D A little sad it doesn't include Disappearance of Haruhi in but I can hope it'll get a Blu Ray re-release in the near future.
Also kinda strange but it seems only some of the discs are region locked o.o I expected them all to be, but the first disc of Haruhi ran without any kind of modification.

end of year bike show yesterday and the autojumble and whatever else was massive. Was all tempered somewhat by the knowledge that whatever I got I would have to bring it back on the back of a motorbike (sorry wood lathe, it was never to be, at least not unless I can come up with something like http://resources0.news.com.au/images/2008/02/02/va1237289686258/Stuart-5870126.jpg ).

It seems bergen are the new baseline cheap but probably acceptable tool maker where before it would have been rolson or someone.
+loads of workshop consumables and I finally have a set of whitworth thread gauges, neglected to buy the tap and die set for it but at least I know when I encounter it I have the precise measurements of thing that screwed me (or indeed is not screwing and causing me grief).
More than I care to think right now, though not a lot (the books were £10 for the two and the micrometer was also £10 and were the most expensive things I go there).

and today

Sounded not so great when I got them, however I was planning to swap things out. I then resoldered some connections and stuck a bit of contact cleaner in the pots (one for each can) and it sounds pretty sweet, also loud as you like as even my crap on bed laptop with those outputs enough sound to make me rip them off my ears sharpish). For £5 though I am not complaining at all.
