Title: So many group buys
Post by: whiskerBox on Tue, 22 November 2011, 00:09:09

I don't know about the rest of you but I couldn't help myself. There are so many great group buys happening I have been throwing money out the window. I love how our community has come together to bring a wide array of custom clicking accessories to the people of geek hack, unfortunately it has all been right before Christmas.

Group buys and limited items
- novelty gb
- redesc, rgb gb
- r4 gb
- phantom gb
- poker cases gb
- clickclacks surprise offerings
and many others I am sure that I am forgetting.

So did you guys splurge on yourselves and plan on addressing all your cool stuff from Santa to you, or are you buying stuff for those people you know like your family?

(I bought a bunch of crap! hahahaha. for myself of course)

tell me about it....there seems to be a new GB happening every week. I havent been around like some of the vets here so not sure if this abnormal or does it come in waves.

I do appreciate all the work that goes into them and getting them completed....hopefully there will be a nice lull so my wallet can catch its breath..

..same all the stuff is an early xmas present to myself...=P

TBH, there wasn't so much cool stuff available when I first joined GH, especially for Cherry switch boards. When I first joined people were still kinda of big into ALPs and Buckling Spring (and somewhat Topre). Now things really seems to have gone the Cherry route (but I have to admit, I like them the best too :D)

Also there definitely were no where near as many Group Buys as there are now. In fact, I think this is pretty much the most Group Buy activity I've ever seen on GH.

I was with you until that "R4 Coming Soon" one.  GLWIC (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?24707-Why-Is-The-Ripster-So-Darn-Pissed-At-Signature-Plastic-Key-Group-Buys&p=465802&viewfull=1#post465802).

I am not that worried about it, I will take it really serious when money begins to be collected.
