May 2022 Pickups - Summer is closing in.

[Arseen]

Almost bought motorized bed yesterday.
Price at store for just the bed was 4000 Euros.
Funnily the price started dropping fast... without me even haggling, just listening.
End quote was 1800 plus for free good top mattress (said to be priced 300), delivery to home (60 normally) and 10 year extra warranty (145).

Had to measure to check that the bed would fit  to my room before buying.
Saw similar beds from same brand online for 1300-1500 with free delivery, but no top mattress.

I might still buy it from the store as then I can be sure of the quality of the bed.

Nah... but I can take you garbage.

But seriously: Of course that was more than decent find.

Also the guys reason for selling was that he couldn't make the change from mouse+keyboard to controller

Good thing he didn't know that you can use 3rd party thinggie to use mouse and keyboard.
Or atleast I think you can?

Went on a day trip over the weekend and was able to hit up a few places I don't get to often.  Was really excited to find the 2 Battle Beasts vehicles / playsets as they are very hard to find in the wild.  Also got a great deal on Ninja Crusaders ($10) and the Zanac manual (Free!).  Finally knocked out Moonwalker for the Genesis also.  Not quite ready to start putting a number on the Genesis pick ups yet but getting there.....

So the new PC is finished, picked up an RTX 2060 for less than £240, I'm happy with that!

Also got a 16 to 1 HDMI switch, (filled up 13 inputs already!)

And had to buy a new TV, the old one has sound but no picture!

I could use something like that too

No need. We can imagine what TV without picture looks like.

I'm in the market for a 16 to 1 HDMI swticher, so I wouldn't mind hearing your thoughts on the one you got.  Thanks.

So far so good, picture looks great, no problems there, when it's switched on it starts with the last used input, it also auto switches inputs so I don't have to remember which one is which, mine came with a little IR dongle that plugs into the back, but I can't see myself using it due to the auto switching, the only downside so far is the power LED, it's quite bright, but a small piece of black electrical tape solved that!

I'm happy with it, the only thing I haven't tried is having more than one device on at once, but I'm not going to be doing that with my setup anyway.

Finally got a Sony unobtanium-5 without having to pay scalpers.
