My wallet hates me so much right now. Even so, this was much cheaper (more than a factor 2) than what I would pay for it back home.

Funny thing is, Scotch whisky is actually cheaper in Japan than in Scotland/Netherlands. I remembered the prices of some bottles, and here it's actually slightly cheaper. (like 5% or so).

Daaayum... You should get it and let me know how it compares to the H3! :D
 
Trustworthy Canadians... Well the first one who comes to mind is @kalbee since he's bought stuff before for me in Japan and shipped it to me

 
I've only had the H3 for a short while when James444 was sending his around, but I thought it was a pretty nice sounding phone. I ultimately preferred the Ex1000 though. I don't remember enough about the sig, but I wouldn't mind sending it to you if you want to do a review comparing the two. 

That would be awesome!!!

Is that a flat cable on the Z5?

Lol yeah, I think Sony is sticking with flat cables. At least it looks better than the red/black flat cable on the H3. I personally just put a blue UE900 smartphone cable on my set of H3s and they look good to me.
 
 
 
When it comes to smartphone screen replacement, there are two types of people:

1. It's still cheaper than buying a new phone!
2. Might as well buy a new phone!

In other news, the iPad Air 2's screen will be very expensive to repair, because of its fully laminated display.

Why not just buy a new phone and then replace the screen on the old one and sell it for monies? XD

For most people, this would mean they'd have to transfer all their stuff over to the new phone, and go through the trouble of fixing the old one selling it, too. Unless they had upgrading in mind, this isn't very cost effective, as you'd end up spending more or less the same amount of money as a repair, which takes half an hour at most, and you don't have to do all the transfer stuff.

B-but, then you get a new phone! And transferring shizzle ain't all that hard tbh.
 
 
 
Dat sweet smell of people helping other people in AAMML in the morning. 

 
Kalbee is a great guy.

Be careful chaps (mainly exe-chan), shipping from Canada is wicked expensive. Expect EMS to cost around USD$60+ for a headphone sized package.
 
FWIW I had a 4kg package cost $100 or so all the way to Australia.

Indeed he is. :D
 
Shipping anywhere out of North America is expensive T_T
 
So I went to an auto show with Tracey today. It's probably the first auto show I've been to in Seattle. Really cool stuff. I got to test drive a 2015 Kia Soul EV.
..........dam that's a weird ass commercial

I saw that commercial after taking this photo and now it all makes sense:


But honestly, I wanted to try the Soul because of this commercial. XD

The front speakers actually have LEDs around them that glow depending on your music or just change colours every __ seconds. Swag for the ultimate distraction.

That Hibiki 12 Bottle still look great no matter how many times I look at. How'd you like it?

Yeah you're probably right. I answered the survey with the EV though since I thought the Kia rep said that I was driving the 2015 Soul EV. Ah well.

Head-Fi is my Flickr/Facebook/Instagram/Twitter these days. 1 account is needed and it reaches out to all the people that really care about them. #sadbuttrue XD
I don't really use Facebook anymore unless someone messages me and I'm too lazy to get the Messager app or whatever. I never really used Flickr because its UI is too confusing to me, even some 7 years after I originally made the account. Instagram can go die in a ditch and I only have a Twitter account so I can get extra points to win something like Sennheiser's giveaways here.

So another 2 people dead, and quite brutally too...

Guess it has gotten better (IMO) too

I really need to jump on the Hibiki 12 FOTM bandwagon, but it's $110 here...

A bit too much for me considering it's a blend, that's Balvenie 15 money. ><

Is that a photoshop or the Kia Soul rep with a rubber hamster head?

Yes it does. Around the holidays it comes in a gorgeous textured box, for wrapping I presume.


Just had some. It's awesome. :cool:


=)


That would be awesome!!!

The lighting at the Seattle show is a lot dimmer than the NY show, where there were a million pointed reflections on ever body panel.

Lol. I can relate. I want to start a twitter account to receive news and company updates but I don't like thinking of usernames. :rolleyes:

Even while it's really good, that's robbery over Japan's prices.

Time to play Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse!
This is one of the rare cases of a VN based on a Manga.
 
And yes, they managed to dish out an even crappier main menu than Muv-Luv Alternative.... I don't even see an "exit" option.
