What an unfortunate thing to happen!

Does an "Open Again" button appear for sending parcels?

It appears when receiving them alright.

It does, and also a button to change locker size if your parcel doesn't fit

Building my first computer today, this should be fun. Both excited and apprehensive.

Ah you'll be grand. If you can built Lego (you can build Lego, right???) then you can build a PC!

CiDeRmAn · 23-01-2015 10:56AM

So, any sign of an EU release of the Retron 5?
Or has that device tanked due to rights issues, seeing as the makers stole other peoples work.

I think the rage have some. My mam mentioned seeing one when she was in there, and I'm sure they mentioned that they'll have one on display at their Smash Bros tournament.

Putting everything together is so easy now. I remember what it used to be like where you'd have to balance the motherboard on these ****ty feet to keep it earthed from the case. As o1s1n said it's like building lego these days.

Probably selling for a premium price of course.

Tomo.Murphy · 23-01-2015 11:05AM

Ha, yeah. You'd have to assume so.

Retr0gamer · 23-01-2015 11:30AM

It plays NES, Famicom, SNES, US SNES, Japanese SNES, Master System, Megadrive, GBA, GB and GBC games so therefore it's worth all those systems added together plus 10x the Rage tax.

Tomo.Murphy · 23-01-2015 11:33AM

The only other place I've seen them is on funstock, but they want £129.99 and £22ish shipping, which is a little over the original €90 reported msrp.

Anybody know good delivery companys from Russia to Ireland? Looking to get 2 helmets delivered, Fedex rape you on customs?

They'll make you their bitch. then charge you a handling fee.

o1s1n · 23-01-2015 12:49PM

I think there's VAT on that handling fee too :eek:

safetyboy · 23-01-2015 12:53PM

Fairly sure if there's one man in the world who can't get what he wants out of Ukraine, it's Putin.

Unless you're looking for something in Crimea? :pac:

The GF is from western Ukraine. They're not massive fans of Putins to be fair

I had a foster dog with me for two weeks, temporarily called him Putin as he had no name. I thought it was funny, and only me it seems

Did he annex part of your back garden?

Well he certainly left his mark

The gardener complained about the amount of "dog deposits" on the grass:D

Tomo.Murphy · 23-01-2015 04:02PM

What's the going rate for a 1 slot MVS? I'm thinking about getting one and picking up a supergun from the marketplace.

€60 for the one with a copy of Puzzle Bobble is tempting, but buying one with no sound worries me a little.

o1s1n · 23-01-2015 04:15PM

Don't buy the one with no sound unless you're handy with a soldering iron and can replace capacitors!

You can get a working one for about €60 if you keep an eye on jamma+ and AO. Average is probably €80, depends on the board version really. Some of the smaller ones are a bit more expensive.

Tomo.Murphy · 23-01-2015 04:22PM

Yeah, that's why I was holding off. I had a feeling it would be caps, but I've never given soldering a go and would rather not try it on something I'd like to be in working order, ha.

safetyboy · 23-01-2015 04:41PM

I got mine on ebay.fr for fairly cheap

Surely having a gardener tops even the gold wallpaper/pantry setup?

CathalDublin · 23-01-2015 04:45PM

Wasn't giggsy07 selling one in the marketplace recently but I dont think he was interested in splitting

Also a handyman, a plumber, a painter/decorator and an artist that is she offers patronage to.
All also me.

Haha, it's not as fancy as it sounds

I do have a maid that comes once a week though. But it's not exactly a Downton Abbey situation, more a lazy dude who hates cleaning situation
