What's the latest equipment /g/-related shit you've scored for free, or criminally cheap? I drove forty minutes to pick up a Kenwood receiver with Infinity bookshelf speakers for free!
Disk caddy for my T420, literally for just asking nicely.

How do you hook up your music? 3.5mm input?
I installed solus for free on my thinkpad.

Straight into the terminals/inputs. Although i do use a bluetooth adapter every so often.
I listen to the radio a lot, use a CD Player, and a turntable.
I've been doing really well with audio gear lately. Picked up about 14k worth of audiophile speakers, amps, receivers, etc on Craigslist for about $400 within the last month or two.

op here. I'm excited and all, but im not going to act like scoring gear i want to use for a while isn't a little bit of a burden.
A nearly 50 year old piece of kit is going to need service. And that shit isn't free (i'm technically inclined but i'm not great).
Q8200 processor, ASUS ROG striker 2 formula, cooler master water cooling kit for it.

mom's friend told me to fix her computer but I didn't because I was too busy playing gaymes. I told her that I couldn't fix it because it was a very very difficult problem and she told me "take it I'm buying a new one" then I fixed it and I got a new pc for free

>I'm a nigger, the post
that receiver is dope. I found an old teac one in a pile of garbage that worked just fine, but it got fucked up in storage between moving.
I bought a "broken" 55" LED tv on craigslist for $20, the guy described it that you can hear sound but the picture doesn't show up. It was obviously just burned out LED backlighting, replaced that for a few bucks and have a new TV
I got a t420s ThinkPad for 50 dollars on eBay.
The guy said the WiFi wasn't working. I have a spare WiFi card sitting around so I bought it and was ready to swap it out and resell it when I realized he had just disabled the WiFi card with the hardware switch.
Picked up a $3500 receiver about a month ago. Guy had lost the pre-in/pre-out connectors and thought it was just broken so he sold it to me for $40. Fixed with a $2 rca cable and it works perfectly now.
Some dude just sold me a acer swift 3 new in book for 100 bucks. And when I mean just sold me I mean like 10 minutes ago. I'm at the bar right now and a black dude walked up and asked if I wanted to buy a laptop. He wanted 500 bucks I said 100 or nothing thinking he would walk away. He just said deal.
