Check what I found on the street! - Plus help with parts???

[WhiteLotus]

I want a case like that soooo much!

 

[Cuzza]

lol. For years I've had heaps of computer junk and no one has ever been this envious! mate i have sort of promised it to someone else but if that falls through you can come and get it; if you want to come all the way to london it is yours. long way from plymouth I know.

hell if it falls through i will pay for the shipping - that case could be my first case mod!



if only.....

Got a HDD sorted, 20gb fujitsu for £3.20 on ebay including postage, great deal. roll on tuesday

It did fall through, but I really cant be bothered shipping it to you, sorry i am a lazy bastard.

If anyone else wants the case, I am open to offers. Pick up only.

 

[Chryonn]

he said he'd pay for the shipping! you could charge him a bomb!

 

[theJesus]

but I really cant be bothered shipping it to you, sorry i am a lazy bastard.

lol that's so mean imo, if he was willing to pay shipping. Like someone else mentioned, you could ask for a little extra for the effort. You could always make him wait a week or so, so you could ship at your convenience, if they're willing to wait. Just some suggestions, plus trying to help the guy out

 

[oli_ramsay]

Do what Jesus says or you will go to hell! lol

 

[theJesus]

Do what Jesus says or you will go to hell! lol

but I'm supposed to be forgiving
in any case, I'm in support of whitelotus buying it [crap pun not intended]

 

[Cuzza]

You make it sound like I should be trying to rip people off. That's not exactly Godliness!

 

[theJesus]

lol it's not ripping him off if he wants to pay for it

edit: Chryonn was the one who said "charge him a bomb", I only a said "a little extra", like 5 bucks or something, nothing outrageous.

 

[Chryonn]

Cuzza, as you said in another thread, which i am now saying to you: "you have to do it." ship it, i mean

 

[Cuzza]

oh dear. this is becoming controversial. quite honestly i WANT to keep the thing and i'l love to build some hellraising rig in there. but i dont have the money and its far to much of a pain to lug back to NZ when i leave in a few months.

so i would like to see someone else make good use of it. so if someone wants to pay for the shipping i will ship it. but you'll have to ship me some sort of replacement case

I just feel sorry for the case, Poor thing got put in the trash because it's old,,, & now someone else comes along & tries to put it back together with old parts. the case called me yesterday & told me, that it just wishes someone would mod it with new hardware. So mod the case or get it to someone who will do it right or I'm calling the proper authority & reporting case abuse.

i would,

but i have no case to trade him

sadness!


and by the way - if he can't be bothered then it's fine. It is his case after all.

Hey team, well I was walking to work yesterday came across this puppy that someone had left out with their garbabe:


So my scavenging cheap-skate instinct took over and I hid it in a bush then picked it up on the way home.

Well there's nothing too special inside, its an Asus A7M266 mobo with a Athlon 1200 with a fancy looking thermaltake super orb cooler. And it powers up OK, i think it's a goer.


I want to get the old shitter going just gor shits and giggles. One problem: no graphics card, no hard drive, no ram, no mouse
Normally i'd be able to raid my parts stash for all that stuff but it's about 12,000 miles away (in New Zealand).

Now I know there are a few guys here from London, if anyone has some old worthless parts they want to offload for (next to) nothing i'd be happy to oblige so get in touch. or in rest of UK i guess thats ok too!

Need:
-Any AGP card
-PC2100 DDR
-any old hard drive should work
-a mouse (maybe could nick one from work!)

CHeers guys.

-Cuzz out.

I might have a 32 or 64MB Geforce MX2 (or 200) AGP card and a 80GB IDE ATA133 drive.

 

[Chryonn]

It is his case after all.

Technically it's not his, in the sense that he found it and hid it under a bush

Possesion is 9\10 of the law.......unless you are the 1\10 and have the receipt/invoice!

I'll keep that offer in mind,thanks, but i've got a vid card and hdd on the way. As soon as those f*ckers at Royal Mail get their shit together. (rant warning)

Vid card came in mail yesterday and like most people i was at work, and since the genius who i bought it off sent it signiture required (on a 99p piece of shit card who cares?) it got returned to the Northolt Royal Mail Delivery Office, which is fine, although I have to go pick it up during their stupid hours of 0700-1400. WTf how am I supposed to do that I leave for work at 630! so in my genius i got them to send it to my local post office which cost 50p so i could pick it up one evening but then found i have to work until 5.30 for the rest of the week and the post office will be shut after that. and its shut saturday too but if it had stayed at Northolt i could have picked it up saturday! so basically now i cant get it until monday. almost a week late what a c*nt

Couldn't you just have them re-deliver it? that costs nothing. or just re-deliver it to ME!

yeah, i could, but there's no one here during the dya to sign for it, that's the problem.

 

[Chryonn]

next-door neighbour?

 

[Cuzza]

they don't speak english.

 

[Chryonn]

oh come on! that's not an excuse, how do THEY pick up their mail eh? eh?
