Bought zelda Skyward Sword, it was $30 at my local Retro Game Store so I had to buy it. It came with the audio CD also.

A toy I have been after for many years now but could never bring myself to pay ebay prices for. Got myself a nice vernier height gauge

£15 and a few hours this afternoon cleaning it up, also will have to fab up (not pictured there are some of the attachments in the box) a scriber but it seems one of my HSS blanks fits just fine out of the box which is a nice bonus). Might be a bit on the short side for some but more than suitable for my purposes.
It seems this last few weeks have been surprisingly good for my metrology department. Don't know if a bunch of them died off or something but it does what I need it to do.
 
My "new" PS2 network adapter (with modem) arrived a week ago, bought from the USA for 6 dollars + 22 of shipping, which is less than the European current street price of the Ethernet-only model :D

(btw, I was in an electronics store today, they had FOUR snes minis in stock at 80 €)

I grabbed a box of random toys/figures for $5 a couple weeks ago, and this lovely pink Lite was floating at the bottom. I assumed it would be DOA/doomed to a life covered in nasty sticker residue....

Restoration: So satisfying.
 
I got a new raspberry pi 3 b+, a cooling case for it, a replacement hdd for one of my raid setups, and a 1tb usb hard drive to use with the pi. Gonna turn it into my dedicated download box so I don't have to leave my loud ass gaming rig on all the time doing all the work
