[tsurugi no mai]

Bought a new bookcase today, all of my excess manga had just been in a box for about a year. Here is the updated manga library

Where did you get those shelves? Sweet collection, by the way!

Mind telling me roughly how much this cost so I can feel depressed about housing prices in my area?

 

[Flunkie]

And a new mouse.

Best fucking mouse ever.

 

[Solemn Nomad]

Yeah, I like it. I do need to pick up a wrist rest and mousepad though.

 

[Ledsen]

Wrist rests aren't good for your wrist. You shouldn't be moving your hand while resting your wrist on something, the nerves get squeezed and you're one step closer to carpal tunnel. (sorry if you already knew this)

Thanks They're just the cheapest bookcase I could find from Argos in the UK. They're surprisingly good for the price though.

:O Well you've scared me out of getting a wrist rest.

It's a sweet house. But when he posts back I will tell you how much a similar house would cost in the UK, then you can feel depressed for all of UK-GAF.

 

[Ledsen]

:O Well you've scared me out of getting a wrist rest.

By all means buy one, just don't rest your wrist on it while moving the mouse It can still be comfortable to have one.

Don't use a Wrist Rest - research has shown that using a wrist rest doubles the pressure inside the carpal tunnel, because the floor of the tunnel is a more flexible ligament that transmits external pressure changes directly into the carpal tunnel (the roof of the tunnel is bone so the pressure doesn't get transmitted on through the hand). Indeed, one test for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), know as Tinel's sign, simply involves tapping on the palmar surface of the wrist, which is enough to cause tingling and numbness in someone developing CTS.

258,000. Asking price was 289,900

I thought Massachusetts had some of the highest prices around - though this is in one of the more affordable areas.

New boots.

South Shore or North Shore? or somewhere else?

 

[JEKKI]

arrrrrgh!!! Im $1800 in credit card debt and only got $1000 to spare in payment!!

Lol, I'm about to buy my first own place and it will cost a little bit more than what you paid, for 585 sq ft.

Yay Vancouver.

 

[The_Player]

The best mouse i ever used. Great choice, kid. One in a million.

 

[Movement]

Do you guys like the MX 518 better than the G700?

 

[The_Player]

Do you guys like the MX 518 better than the G700?

Absolutely. Wireless mice worse choise for gaming.

So that's around £161,000. Bargain.

@wormdundee: I'm guessing it's at least 3 beds possibly 4 so I'm gonna say with that double garage you'd be quite lucky to pick that up for anything around £220,000.

It's been said, but you have an awesome collection right here! I don't know why, but a large group of organized manga just looks cool to me.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Been cruising around europe and stopped at the Tintin Museum outside of Brussels...a must for any Herge fan, with hundreds of original pages on display. Picked up a cool large resin Rocket at the store. Iconic!

 

[Data West]

I don't know why,

manga's probably the only book medium that tends to decorate the spine and even play out scenes across multiple volumes. most books just slap a portrait of the main character on them

Seems like a nice place, congrats!

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

A couple more PS1 games arrived today. Rented Rollcage a lot back in the day but somehow never played Incredible Crisis before!

 

[Paracelsus]

Got it from a friend for much less than the real value because box is borked and so on, the thing works perfectly though. =o

That is great and expensive!

The G400 will be the true successor to the beloved 518.

Long time reader, first time poster. This was always my favorite thread, so I figured what better place to make my first Neogaf post

SO much fun. Loves me some bubble hockey! My wife will be painting the players to be the Red Wings vs Stars.

Bubble hockey is one of the reasons why I miss arcades. I had so much fun on the USA/USSR bubble hockey machines growing up.

It's no ROH, but I'm still excited.

Just get a table hockey game!

 

[JohnnyPhatsaqs]

lol. I almost bought a Stiga table until I found a deal on this Super Chexx I would kick myself for passing on. These things are usually around $3,000

 

[alphaNoid]

Trenched!

How much was this one? and how much would it be without the deal?

I paid $1500 this past Saturday. Used ones in great condition vary anywhere from $1500 to as high as $2500. They're expensive, but last forever. Replacement parts for EVERYTHING are available from the manufacturer's site. What's awesome is, they started making these in 82 or 83. The SAME mechanical parts are still being used in current manufacturing.

That's how you know something was made right from the get go

 

[Borman]

Got my copy of RE:3ds with the case

Not a stock photo, I just took it. Fancy cameras = nice photos Thanks for the complement though

First impression: Game looks pretty amazing.

 

[Manp]

this showed up in the mail this morning



€15 from zavvi. too bad the disc was bouncing inside the box so it's a tiny bit scratched but it works (was able to install do hdd with no issues) so it's not a big deal.

Yeah, f Vancouver. The market here is insane
I just sold my place (just a bit bigger than the one pictured) for $601,000.00. Langley, BC you so crazy.

 

[KorrZ]

New iPhone 4 White! Sorry, no picture of the phone itself, using it to take these pictures. Game of Thrones of course, couldn't help myself after watching the show and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (couldn't resist $19.99 new for such an amazing game)

 

[Gvaz]

Aww yeah, the proud owner of $160,036,850,000,001 Zimbabwe dollars

Gonna get some frames for this

I don't get it.

One trillion Zimbabwe dollars is like 2.6 million Canadian.

Also why on earth would you have a trillion dollar bill?

No problem. They're AWESOME. My 8 year old is kicking my ass, too
