Post Your Last Purchase XXVIII

[cambookpro]

The largest purchase I've made in my life, but need to replace my car for work. This ticks all the boxes. It's only a year old, and looks absolutely beautiful. The interior is also stunning, has two 10.25" displays side-by-side under a single long sheet of glass.

Enjoy your new car. I always buy a year or so old. You save a lot of the depreciation costs that way.

Yeah, it still has two years of warranty, is immaculate, and even has remnants of a new car smell, but is £12k cheaper than new. Seems like the way to go to me.

Agreed. I’m sure you can find plenty to spend £12k on. I know I have this last month.
Underfloor heating
New Boiler.
New kitchen
New bathroom.
Been an expensive month.

I picked up three mechanical keyboards. Gamers took over that market so there’s choices but most sport epileptic seizure triggering lighting. Not fond of it being wired but I like it so far.

Rumors of the death of the EF is greatly exaggerated. At least with working pros and when a deal and need collide.

I was displeased with the above keyboard and two others I tried. I am returning them.

I heard about and ordered a CODE keyboard. It arrived today and it is amazing. Minimalist with very nice 7 level white backlit keys. It’s the 104 key mechanical with Cherry MX clear switches and 2mm key dampeners. I just ordered a second one. (If you’re in the market for a keyboard I recommend CODE.)

A new case fan for a 5-bay HDD case, because the factory one sounds like it's chewing on rocks.

An A3+ AirPrint enabled Canon, because (a) the current one literally won't work unless I re-install the driver every time I turn the printer on, (b) even when it works, it's so old the driver support is terrible (literally has 3 different options each for "grayscale" and "print quality", with no indication what means what), and (c) I've wanted an A3 printer for literally years.

I’ve always been curious about the leather iPhone cases, but couldn’t justify spending $50. Had to jump on it when I saw it was on sale. Even had an extra $5 reward/discount somehow, which is odd because I rarely shop at Best Buy.

Couldn't hold out any longer...

I needed some mushy cute in my fan woman life...

Glad I waited on buying anything as I was hoping they'd make an animatronic one.

Thanks! Although some consider them napkin rings I live in germany, got them locally at my trusted jeweler who also handles my needs regarding fine watches, so it was a no brainer. they were also reasonably priced being platinum.
