Best pickup ever, a wife! The love of my life, I've known her since middle school. Couldn't be happier.

Really happy about this pickup today - the Kid Icarus cards and binders are finally on sale here in the UK! (I'd be able to do a few binder pickups for US Gaffers if anyone needs one - and I'm looking for fellow European trade partners if anyone else is collecting!)

Where did you get it? I'm in the Netherlands, but I don't think it'll be released here. If you could pass on a link to the store that sells it I'd be much obliged.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
For the first week of July...

Replaced my aging Canon 40D with a new Nikon D90. I got a good deal, and because I just rent lenses, it's easy for me to switch systems. That said, I'm struggling to like it as much as I liked my old Canon - I'm just not use the button layout or menus... I kind of miss the charm of my old body. So, we'll see. I'm really toying with the idea of getting an OM-D E-M5 to replace this new camera.

... and I picked up a cheap zoom lens (55-200 4-5.6 VR) to use for the time being:

Very nice! I'm curious - how does renting lenses work? Where do you rent them from?
 
Got a bunch of game soundtracks recently: FFVII, VIII, IX, X, XIII-2 Plus, Xenogears, Parasite Eve I + II, Persona 3 Portable, Persona 3 FES and Persona 3. I've actually already had copies of most of those Squaresoft soundtracks for a decade or so, but only recently realized that they were bootlegs (doh!), so I replaced them with legit copies.

Got the Persona 3 artbook from a good friend for my birthday and requested the Famitsu Vita special from my local Kinokuniya. My Japanese sucks but I wanted to flip through it and it came with a Vita case.

New Fangamer shirts: Kid Icarus, Earthbound and Ocarina of Time.

New rucksack and kicks that coincidentally match. Really, really happy with these two.

My best "pickup:" got these for my birthday late last month from my partner. All time favorite comic series, seriously jazzed to have the hardbacks in my collection.

That binder is awesome! I hope we get something like that in North America. /wishful thinking
 
Today we were holding a shmups/run n' gun meet up at a local game shop here in town and this guy trades this in. They put a $29.99 stick on it. The sticker didn't stay on for long.

Binder is awesome. How much would you want for them to be shipped to the US in terms of US dollars?

I've debated getting these for awhile now. I just finished up my latest round of Batman Graphic novels, so maybe it's time I took the plunge on these.

Sorry, reposting from June thread, forgot that it was left as the open tab when i left it was still june xD

Germany Holiday pick-up's !

5EEH2.jpg


Got Wipeout in a Media Markt for the price of 19.99 Euro in Sonthofen, thought was a good deal !

Got MGS HD collection in a Innsbruck Gamestop, luckily it is a price they cant go over, as it was priced the same everywhere. Anyway the holiday was very productive managed to complete the story of MGS 2 in about 14-15 hours ;P

But man the prices of some of the older titles, horrible, reminds me why i order from the UK.

Vita MGS for 30 euros? Damn, I held the box in my hand at the local Sony store and the price was 40 euros.

That USK label is hideous though.

Every shop i was at in Germany and Austria it had the price of 29.99, other games had hideous prices though....

Yeah the USK logo is fugly, and also the fact that Gamestops like to unwrap shit and stick the price right on the box >.< Will be a bitch to get it off when ill try it.
 
Where did you get all those amazing hot sauces?? Hahah so rad!

Are those good? Mmm I love hot sauce.

I picked them up at a Bass Pro Shop within the Great Lakes Crossing Outlet Mall in Auburn Hills, MI. Most of these will taste like ass or are sheer gimmic alone. A quick look at the ingredients is a good indication of what you're in for with hot sauces. For example, the Frostbite sauce is primarily vinegar. However, a couple of them are legit hot sauces with full flavor and some serious heat. That Window Maker hot sauce is some very serious stuff, containing caspian extract. You do not fuck around with that stuff. I have an existing hot sauce collection and saw these as unique additions based on name and bottle design alone, although I do eat my hot sauces as well.

The "Hunter Peeing on Tree" was probably the most unique sauce out of the lot, but the Mustard Gas sauce had the best design and bottle IMO. The Mustard Gas sauce itself sounds disgusting though.

Nice! I got mine for $80 back in the day. Worth every penny.

Awesome pick up. Where are they for sale? Usual sort of places like WHSmiths?

I picked one up on impulse today from WH Smiths for £5.99 and it comes with three packs of cards. They had the packs seperately, too, but I didn't ask how much they were.

I'd be up for some kind of trading thread if enough people are interested. :3

Thanks! I had never played Strider 2 before and from the 20 mins or so I spent with it last night, it's an amazing game. Really stoked to finally have the original Strider in my possession again, too. I sold my Genesis cart a few months ago and I've been missing it.
 
After a small Hiatus both from console gaming (especially my 360) decided to jump back in and picked up a few gems; not shown below: 360 wifi adapter, MW3 with Map pack 2, and Crysis on 360.

Ooooh, Japanese version. They cut the voice overs from the US version (not to mention, they moronically mixed up the labels on the discs.) Point is, a winner is you!
