Are you in Sydney? I have a GTX560 that needs a new heatsink and a GTX570 with unspecified problems. Not worth the cost of postage but if you wanted to give them a try and dump them back on me if they don't work we could figure something out.
Can I ask what happened? I had a mate who a similar thing happened to... was going to buy a 6990 I think, dude fucked off with his money or something (I can't remember the exact circumstances).
Apparently the guy had priors as well, according to the cops.
Mine is Samurai Warrior: The Battles of Usagi Yojimbo. One of the few comic adaptations that really got what the comic was about, and featured some really nice moments, too.
I got done over buying a PS3 at the end of 2007 on PalGN after buying a ton of games there in the past
I STILL BLAME EATCHILDREN ENTIRELY >_<
That was $700 down the drain at a time when I was a depressed, unemployed university dropout (although technically I was forced to dropout, otherwise they were going to expel me)

Yeah I got fucked over about 15 years ago for some mac gear for $1200 and was in the same position (broke and at school). Though the worst bit was how incompetent the cops were. I gave them everything on a silver plater and they did nothing.

Yeah unless it's a sizable amount of money they don't give a shit. I basically had the guys address and everything after tracking him down through Bigfooty/Whirlpool/etc. Cops didn't give a shit. "Life lesson" apparently.
I bet if someone stole their donuts they would be planting asylum seeker documents on them and kicking them off to Christmas Island.
That's literally exactly what happened to my friend. Said he'd gotten sick or something and didn't post it. If you want to PM me the guy's username, I'll ask my mate tomorrow and see if it's the same guy (assuming he has a history there and not only a few posts to his name).
I know he wound up approaching the cops about it, so if you have doubts, that's probably the avenue you should take as well.
Just beat The Last Express and it has to be said that Jordan Mechner is a genius. Pity it bankrupt the company and the sequel alluded to was never produced. Just found out he wrote a graphic novel about the Knights Templar and I'm going to check it out.

I'm a mod over there, but only in the musical instrument for sale forum, so if anyone ever rips you off on an electric guitar you come to me man and I'll get it sorted.
As much as it costs to ship it to you. I only got rid of my previous set of sticks when a friend's blew up. So realistically I'm going to keep them until they're so old I throw them out or until there's an emergency. I'm just happy I might be able to free up the space in my room now instead of a few years from now.

Ha! Yeah there's been a couple of times along the way where I've been tempted to just go fuck it and buy a Vita.
Still waiting for Minter's new game to come out for it
And - I know this is gonna probably sound stupid - but I crave a Surface Pro 2 for one reason only, and that's so I can make comics anywhere, any time, using real equipment. Drawing on the iPad sucks, no pressure sensitivity in the stylus and the tools feel really limited compared to Photoshop. Drawing on the wife's Netbook with a Wacom tablet sucks, it's like trying to write a book when you can only see three letters on the screen. Even drawing on my desktop machine in the mancave has its drawbacks, mainly that the mancave is a fucking hotbox most of the time or I just want to sit on the couch with the one hour a day I get to chill out with the wife.
Also, it'll let me continue working on comics during my lunch break, which would be a whole extra hour a day I get to be productive!
as opposed to the other 8 hours a day I spend at work, doing, uh, not much
Ah well, part of being a grown up and all that, or something
Anyone here played Broken Age yet? Can't be arsed swimming through the main gaming thread.

Hey Gaz, did you get my email about my other suggestion? It only came to me after watching a video from CGR on it, but I'd completely forgotten about the game and thought it might make decent fodder (possibly with a tie-in to Action Fighter? Who knows!)
Well, I was enrolled at uni and living at uni but I wasn't actually going to uni. We would roll down the hill from residences to get some greasy wing dings and chocolate milk by 11am or so but that was as close as we would get to the lecturing arenas.
Until the afternoons when we would roll back down the hill to the bar next to caf for beers of course. So technically that's twice a day I was close to doing uni work.
