Boards of that type are pretty common but they tend to feel nasty, so don't get your hopes up.

Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

I don't see they can be making money off those. $20 pretty much just covers shipping considering those look pretty heavy

That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.

I agree.  I think they want to just get rid of them actually.  However, selling them to someone who can use the components is better than throwing them away.  I think that is what they are doing to be honest.

When I saw these it piqued my interest and I made an offer of $17.50 which I almost immediately regretted.

Anyway, they took it, so I have one on the way. Maybe I will get lucky and it will be a cool item.

I will describe it here when it arrives.

Most kiosks make my fingers hurt just looking at them.
