teh "what did you buy today"-thread

Two kickass webcams both for 13 bucks in one package! No more jerky live streaming of PCE plays

Nice purchase there MissaFX.  Was it mint/complete?  How much was shipping?

$5.79, and it probably cost a dollar or two to drive there.  Plus I tipped a dollar.
It was mint when I got it, but something happened in a blind munching rage and by the time I opened the box again almost half of it was gone!

Castle of Shikigami III (Wii)-decent, if somewhat unspectacular

Got Macross 2036 from GUTS and a backup compact flash card from Missa for my Juno-G. Both items will be providers of much fun...the compact flash card will allow for fun, indirectly. 

Oh, and I know why these items took longer than usual to arrive - customs must be getting suspicious of all the mail I'm receiving. Both packages were opened. If the RCMP and Canada Customs want to have Turbografx Tournaments, they can get their own games.

At least you got them. I'm serious, after our ordeal, I honestly believe Canadian Customs has it's eye on you.

Yeah, I'm convinced of it. I wonder if CSIS has me on a watch list.

Is that CSI: Saskatchewan?  Apparently the mounties don't like you importing weapons of mass amoosement. 

[td741]

CSIS is kind of like the Canadian version of the CIA.

And here I thought you Canucks were too polite for that sort of thing.

We're actually just a bunch of beer drinkin', chicken wing eating barbarians with universal health care.

Yesterday I bought Iron Man on the Blu-ray format, which is better than LaserDisc.

[Turbo D]

While Blu-ray is king on HD televisions, LaserDisc is not too far behind. I watched a laserdisc on an HD tv and have to say that I was surprised! The quality seemed up there with Blu-ray! I know it sounds crazy, but it did. heh. 

[Joe Redifer]

LOL.  I recorded a TV movie broadcast on a channel which I can barely receive (lots of static) in VHS EP and then dubbed it down to many other tapes (VHS EP each way).  The end result looks absolutely no different than a 70mm film presentation at a real movie theater.

[albinoMithos]

Well here are my recent acquisitions

[Turbo D]

  That is a sweet haul dude! I have to say that there are a jack-load of hits there. Even my favorite Nintendo GameCube game is there; Animal Crossing!  Also, good job on scoring doki doki panic. That game is a must. You are going to have lots of fun, especially with that 3DO and StreetFighter.
