Elite Screen 120" Sable
Vlaspar Premium Flat Paint - Drizzling Mist
 
My third copy of Kirby's Dreamland 3 in two months, ironically at the same place I bought the other two. Also found both ToeJam And Earls complete for the Genesis. All three will probably hit ebay. \m/

It's going to be a good December.

That screen is badass, by the way. Where'd you get that, and how much was it?

Actually got it from Amazon for $288.xx, even though it was a bit cheaper on eBay (around $250), but i had $125 if Credit, Prime for Free 2 Day Shipping, and i felt safer going with Amazon if i had any issues. Since i bought it the price has gone up over $330 so it was good timing for me.

I'm now in the process of moving shit around since my sister moved out and I now can move a good bit of stuff into what is meant to be our office area/spare bedroom. This means that my stuff is haphazardly stored right now. I swear I'll add pictures though before December 31. :)

My birthday was on Monday, so I got some stuff from that, and I had a couple buys from Black Friday, and some completely unnecessary purchases, as well! This doesn't include the shit I bought on Steam.

img_0301.jpg


The big thing is obviously the speakers. Adam Audio A7Xs. These are for my computer, and they are fucking incredible. I can practically see the sound. I wanna get an external DAC for 'em, but even as they are now, they're seriously some ridiculously good speakers.

Then I got a Tripp Lite surge protector, because I'm out of outlets and don't want all my fun shit to fry.

Then I got Saving Private Ryan on blu, Eden of the East on Blu, Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu 1.5 (which got here just a few minutes ago), and Fist of the North Star Vol. 2.

Pretty awesome, except that I have no time for this stuff due to law school :(

Oh well, a few rounds of Daifukkatsu won't kill anyone.
 
LAYD, that is a very nice color! i was considering re painting my room. guess i know which color now ;) where did you buy that color?

my pick ups:

LOTR trilogy

^ go to you local post office and ask for a change of address packet. The ones here in North Carolina always have a 10% off purchase at lowes coupon in it and a few other coupons ;)

Sorry off topic :)

Gotcha. ill be looking up guides, deals, coupons, to repainting my room as soon as im done with exams!


anyways here are my purchases:
xbb702.jpg



4 box sets from Amazon and Target. plus a bunch of other movies and 3 games.
 
whew.

Well, as some of us know, Twilight comes out at midnight tonight.. which I'm excited about because, just as they do for all big movie and game releases, Hastings celebrated the event by taking 30% off all used products in the store. They also just so happen to be running a "Buy 2 Get 2 for $1" sale on used Blu-Rays this weekend.. yeeeeah, you can see where this is going.

These were all used (surprised to see some of these there.. I think some of these just came out this week!).

30u3eac.jpg

My total, tax and all, was $77. One of the copies of Fantasia is a Christmas gift, though.. so, technically, 11 movies for $77. Not too shabby.

I justified Last Airbender because it was only $1.. I'm not proud of this

oh no it gets worse! I went to switch out the games yesterday. The first gamestop i went to, i went up to the counter and showed him the games, and he act's like there fine and im an idiot for thinking they arn't, then he spends 20 minets not knowing how to work the computer. he asked me for my edge card and recipt about 7 times each, and finaly about 20 mins later i got my games and got back to the car. i opened them up and they were worse then the disks i swaped out. drove about 15 mins to another gamestop because i wasn't dealing with that guy again. they swaped my game and refunded me for just cause 2 and i was out in a few mins.
