LGR Thrifts [Ep.16] Return of the Thrift

ajokay

Oh oh, that MMX logo. The sign of the best software in the late 1990's. So glad to see Thrifts back.

Maximilien Noal

I firmly believe that everyone should have a copy of Under A Killing Moon. The constitution should say so ! Who's with me ?

Pow3rh0use

I remember in some of the older lgr thrifts you found some print programs. I wonder if you'll do a retrospective on them. Plus I understand that you're a collector, but I always wondered how much the stuff you find goes for.

Jess the Stampede

Holy shit, Rock Jocks!! My brother and I owned that game when we were kids! I forgot it even existed!! Also, go back!! Legend of Zelda game!!!! *paws monitor*

Bolthouse

YAY! Now you can finally review some Tex Murphy FMV games!

Daniel Nelms

Cool find on the k pro! I could try and 3d print a space bar in black if you get me the measurements.

Lon Seidman

Awesome! Was definitely worth watching all the way through to the end.

Oh man, I would have grabbed that Atari box and bolted for the checkout. I'm just getting started on my 2600 collection and there would have only been a couple duplicates there! PS: I got an MSX2+ recently, a Panasonic FS-A1WX to be exact. Built in FDD with new belt, 15khz RGB output, and the last Panasonix MSX2+ with the tape interface :D

Braeden Loepke

Thanks for the early bday present! (haha) LGR Thrifts is by far my favorite video series and just seeing it sent my computer loving heart pumping for more. Great way for the series to start! Thanks for the video man!

Brandie Drown

Love the thrifts!! Love to see all that you buy and the random crap that you find!

Mintaka

Aww yeah, it's back. That Kaypro, whoa....

Sweet! That blew by so fast. Was cool to see one of my finds at the end, thanks Clint!

Criwall

Awesome finds. It's too bad we don't have many good thrift stores in Sweden. Games and old computers are almost impossible to find and most of the ones you do find are DVD-case versions, and never console games. However I did manage to get a sealed copy of a big box Pandoras Box... :D

K. Troest Kjeldsen

YES.. been looking forward to this. Some good find with the Kaypro. Im really wondering, how much of the other stuff ever leaves the store once its in there. there is so much wield crap.

Alyxx the Rat

Some really good finds there. That Kaypro 2 is awesome.

Alyxx the Rat

It's back! YAY!

Ezydenias

thank you!!!

Danny De Casto

So uh, wouldn't that copy of The Sims 4 be completely useless if the code's already been activated?

LGR

Didn't notice anything too different with stabilization, but it's possible! There are no settings to change regarding that though, so I hope it's not too unbearable.

Kris Asick

Noticed your new camera glasses don't stabilize the image as well as your older ones... maybe a settings change needs to be done or something? *shrugs* Lots of neat finds though! :)

Lindsay Michelle

Haha, I guess I have gotten to know you at least somewhat through watching your videos :)

LGR

Haha, I actually plan to do that once I finally go in there and see no CRTs anymore. It'll be sad.

Steven Zakulec

So glad to see a new episode of LGR Thrifts!

Lindsay Michelle

After hearing that Goodwill was no longer going to take CRT televisions, I half expected you to do a montage of all the times you looked at CRT televisions at Goodwill over last season, set to sad violin and piano music.

The Disgruntled Cactus

Thrifting! *flails*

Kevin Furr

VCR rewinder -- remember why they even existed? Fargin' Blockbuster hassled you if you didn't rewind!!

LGR

These here. Very similar to my last pair: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/iVUE-Horizon-Camera-Recording-Sunglasses/dp/B00NAI092S" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/iVUE-Horizon-Camera-Recording-Sunglasses/dp/B00NAI092S</a>

Kevin Furr

What kind of camera glasses you using now? I need to get some.

ReeseRiverson

Oh, here's what new resin looks like: <a href="http://saharaaqua.com/saharaaqua/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/water-softener-resin.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://saharaaqua.com/saharaaqua/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/water-softener-resin.jpg</a> Almost felt like sand to me.

ReeseRiverson

Yeah, that's how I've seen them too, actually. Usually see them in a pair for boiler rooms. (Taking turns, so one can regenerate or something.) I ought to take some pictures for you next time I see them in a boiler setup. heh

LGR

It did, yeah. I thought it was wrapped in a plastic wrap or something, but it could've just been the material of the tank

ReeseRiverson

Did it seem to have a texture feel, like it's made out of fiberglass? I've been around tanks of that kind four or five times that size. Imagine the pain it is to remove or put in water softener resin in tanks bigger than that. lol

LGR

Hey, I would've been super psyched with just the carts too! This is only like, the third time in 6 six years finding carts like that in the wold

LGR

Tell me about it D: Buying lottery tickets now

LGR

That Sony is my new bae. <a href="https://twitter.com/lazygamereviews/status/582281510822277120" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/lazygamereviews/status/582281510822277120</a>

LGR

Oh yeah, it's as much about the journey as it is the reward. I really gotta make it to the Charlotte area this season

LGR

Glad to hear it, glad to bring it back

LGR

I wish you luck finding things beyond rusty vases

LGR

Oh yeah, it's such a legendary machine

LGR

I want a 3D printer so bad for stuff like this

LGR

Hehe

LGR

Quite possibly! It was actually pretty lightweight too, like it was made of hard plastic instead of metal.

LGR

Totally should. Never know til you go.

LGR

Can't wait to make one! I've also talked about my Kaypro IV in this video ages ago: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLnTAYMMLOc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLnTAYMMLOc</a>

StigDesign1

Yaay New Video :D btw cool sony tv with thoes speakers at start of vdeo. lolts of cool Retro stuff. wish i had alott of money and cud shopp with you in usa. :) i norway there is manely only 2 types of stores lik that and they oftent over price stuff and splitt the things :S

Nice direction to take the show.. that's why I go to thrift stores. I rarely find anything good.. but I'm always entertained.

Alex

Man I was just about to ask about this series, too! Glad you're bringing it back, I had anticipated it since the last :)

Ezydenias

I love this format. I wish I could send something. We go on fleamarkets because there are no thrift stores over here but normaly we only come home with allot of pokémon card xD.^^ I never had really gotten anything worthy to show except a Bandmaster Harmonica for 10 bucks which is freaking awesome.^^ But I should take a camera with me one time because there is stuff you wouldn't belief like Magazines for an STG44 or a big as Cinema Projector from the fox knows when. But the Fleamarkt ist filled with idiots who charge way to much for their stuff but man!. The only weird thing we are looking out is for an old GDR Mixer (<a href="http://i.ebayimg.com/t/DDR-Mixer-RG-28s-mit-Zubehoer-Orange-Handmixer-Ruehrgeraet-Handruehrgeraet-/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/X4oAAOSw34FVArM" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://i.ebayimg.com/t/DDR-Mixer-RG-28s-mit-Zubehoer-Orange-Handmixer-Ruehrgeraet-Handruehrgeraet-/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/X4oAAOSw34FVArM</a>~/$_57.JPG) because seriously it is undistructable!. And it is already about 30 years old.^^ Talking about quality!.^^ Yeah but normaly you just see allot of rust everywhere or stupid vases and crap.^^ But I really should have made a photo of the Filmprojector that thing was just awesome and huge!. No Idea who could lift that.^^

The Enforcer

dat Kaypro though. So nice to find something historic.

Rob Caporetto

Damn. Managed to find some rather neat stuff this time. And I was sitting here already impressed by that bucketload of 2600/7800 carts. But the Kaypro? Nice - hopefully finding a replacement Space Bar won't be too tricky - be good to see a system review of that eventually ;)

Daniel Fowler

So happy this is back!

Deveron

Now all you need to do is 3D print a spacebar and you're set!

Patrick Strater

OMG those Tex Murphy Big boxes - Epic Find and that Kaypro - HOLY COW... You are so lucky

Marnix

I enjoyed that little pot joke a bit too much :')

ReeseRiverson

That tank with the valve looked like it may be a water softener.

John Kinsman

Pretty awesome finds in this episode!! I should go thrifting more often..

David Stringfellow

The k pro 2 is so cool, can't wait to see a video on it :)

Sam Radmall

Yay! A new episode of LGR Thrifts! Can't wait to see what you've picked up this time!
