I opted to just go down to the free clinic and had people punch my balls and spit in my mouth. Figured it'd be just as exciting as going for a TV, plus less chance of getting the 'rona.

Virtual mebbe? I saw eBay have a decent sale for the LG CX55 OLED I've preordered for 38% off plus another 10% off...WITH free shipping. Not bad.


Otherwise, just bought some LEGO for Little Cha and future presents, a Zojirushi rice cooker for my Mom as hers is too old, a kettle for me...nothing fancy.

Yeah, basically, Sammy has not really gone to the next level on technology really and has anything comparable against the OLED tech...the QLED branding is basically the same LED technology they've had for years with just an upped brightness.

Yup, plus the software was total trash and i had a bad hum from the TV every time we were using Netflix. Thought it was a bum unit, but the replacement was actually worse as it had the hum plus would inconsistently not turn on my HDMI CEC-enabled soundbar...

Probably the cheapest price for GX-78 that you'll find.

The GX-72 well, given it's popularity, you'll likely have to bite the bullet at MSRP or higher...unlikely to go for a markdown.

yeah, I’ve been tracking it at >$160-$175 so definitely a good deal at $150.


I’ll have to patiently wait for Megazord I don’t mind MSRP, i just don’t want to pay a premium for it

FWIW, @thoiboi , GX-72 goes for about 25,000JPY in USED condition (see Mandarake). So, for new, the places like My Kombini which I buy from sometimes has it at NEARLY 50,000JPY.

I think given that, the most competitive is what I had showed you before over at Nippon-Yasan at 31,000JPY. It is going to climb. You may have to bite the bullet. You just have to confirm they can ship to the US with Trumpvid-19 going full-stupid right now.

Looking directly at JP Post site, it doesn’t look like US is suspended so maybe it’s time to buy... it’s at 32,500 JPY right nao

No sir, he's a guy that's pretty clever and witty that has tried to make electric mainstream...he also has broken how proprietary Tesla is.

I Love watching his vids...
and also did you notice how hilariously contrived his new assistant, Leenda, is for getting views?
He pretty much calls out that she is an attention getter and then he gets all the attention!

any Guy Ritchie film fans?
If you haven't seen "The Gentlemen" you are missing out...

also, socially distance watched "Let him go" on Sunday and that was also well done.
