black friday/cyber monday purchases

Post by Zozobra »

So then GGFers, what unnecessary shit did you buy this whoreish weekend?
I got me an Oculus Rift S. I haven't had time to try it out yet as I'm going to California tomorrow for a conference. I also need to borrow a better GPU from one of my friends until I get the chance to pick one up.

EZ Drummer 2 for $40ish. I've messed with it a little bit and it is super easy with the song builder.

I ordered a Audio Technica USB turntable and a pair of RCA-XLR cables. Think that's going to be it for me this year.

Going to get Izotope RX7 Standard for $200 off.
I have some vinyl records I need to transfer to digital and I want to get rid of all the pops and crackles.

Would love to hear what you think about it. I've been eyeing the Valve Index but it didn't go on sale.

I'm having a sign made that I can hang on the outside of my garage.

It reads: Grandma's Fart Shack

The index is supposed to be better if you have the cash to throw down and have a rig to run it. I'm mainly interested in playing elite dangerous with it so it's somewhat overkill. I got a great deal on the rift S so it'll do me just fine.

I went completely nuts this year and bought a few bags of vermiculite for the geckos and a carton of woozy bottles for the hot sauce I made.

Last of the big spenders right here. :thu:

My wife got a new ipad.

These were our Christmas presents to ourselves.

I grabbed the Axe-FX III and FC-12 bundle. That, along with the recent FX-8 and custom pedal board, plus the BE-50 Deluxe and SG Junior I picked-up at Gear Fest, that wraps up my year. Now I need to carve out time to put all of that shit together, tweak it and play a little...

It's more than I've bought in a long time.

Now I need to move some things I don't see myself using. I HATE trying to sell stuff, but I'm running out of storage space...

I went a bit off the deep end and need to stop. I did just divorce and buy a new house so I needed tons of things, at least there is an excuse.

Xbox One X and some games and extra controller.

KM-7 mk-iii artist. Waited on SW forever, all of their new stock had defects. Couldn't wait and found a score on a used one with HSC. Should be shipping today.

JHS Haunting mids, Wampler Equator, Peterson Strobostomp, French Press Coffee Maker, Electric Kettle to go with said French Press.

New Couch and Love Seat, New bed. I could go on with tons of other things but mostly general household items.

Most expensive black friday/cyber week of my life but I am 90% done with everything I need.

Oh and I got some dope ass Pumas yo.
