Is anyone else fighting the urge to buy stuff you don't *really* need just because you're stuck at home and might like some new toys to play with??

Yup, I'm lusting after a new guitar. Thankfully the one I'm GASsing for won't be available in this country until May, as far as I know.

I've just been looking at some Flare Audio Jet IEMs that I don't really need.

£2.69 on an Ethernet cable.
It’s so I can setup a 3rd system with a streamer.

The economic fallout puts us in an a bit of precarious financial position, so alas no.

Bought some 20 gauge Duelund cable to make up some interconnects, and a new case for my phone. :-)

Far more people stuck at home than ever, I bought some AECO pure silver RCA connectors and some nice silver interconnect cable from Japan to make some cables for my own use.  |

Nice. I wanted to try some silver interconnects but no point in my buying them now whilst family and neighbours all at home as I won't be able to use them!

I gave up my system at home ages ago, I have 2 rooms in my new place one for analogue and one for digital so after I have done for the day I can retire for a session before going home.

When did you move into your new premises David? Is it much bigger than the old space?

No purchases here.
Most online places are shut.
Not allowed to be delivered until after our lockdown.
So, no point.

On 6th day of country lockdown.
Haven't been out, other to take a daughter to donate blood.
Way too many people out. Walking, running, biking. And driving.
First trip to the supermarket tomorrow morning.

Not really, just bought food plus a set of Wahl hair clippers and cut my hair Sunday night - No. 4 all over. Looks good from the front, couldn't give a toss about the back! Oh wait a mo, I bought a bottle of Springbank 10, Springbank 15 plus a Hazelburn - Springbank distillery closed it's doors a week or so ago and being a small distillery doing everything by hand, retail stocks won't last that long I'm guessing. Not tried the 15 or Hazelburn before, so looking forward to those. I guess in 10 years from now, there's going to be a gap in bottling numbers from some small distilleries?
I will be buying a projector and screen, but planned on those before this started. So I'm all set for the long run now, as this isn't going to be quick.

Is anyone else fighting the urge to buy stuff you don't *really* need just because you're stuck at home and might like some new toys to play with?? It's not just me, then. Sod the hi-fi toys. I'm going over to the dark side and investigating to see what BDSM could have to offer(!) Lookin to bag some BDSM "Essentials". Not quite sure what the essentials might be, so might have have to enlist the help of SS. He seems to be the one to ask here. Might show me the ropes - and some other paraphernalia. Amazing what you can get. And some amazing women's fashion items: MOD: images removed as not appropriate for the public area |
