- Photos: Carbonite - TP-Link TD-W8970
- Item: 3DConnexion SpaceNavigator

- Price: R1500
- Warranty: nada..
- Packaging: yup, all original..

- Photos: Carbonite - 3DConnexion SpaceNavigator
- Item: Logitech G700s
- Age: not sure, I bought it refurbished about 6 years back.
- Price: R500-ish..?
- Warranty: zilch..
- Packaging: original, though one corner is slightly damaged (dumbass "friend" didn't know the front of the box is a flap)
- Condition: pretty darn good, battery life is degraded, clickers are still good, scroll wheel is still spins freely..
- Reason: either you use it, or it sits as an ornament on my shelf..
- Link: (Logitech removed that page long ago)

- Item: Zalman Fan Controller
- Age: 7 or 8 years..

- Link: (can't find this one, those only seem different..?)
- Photos: Carbonite - Zalman Fan Controller (card reader not included, it's just playing a supporting role here)
- Item: HTC One (M9) Cellphone
- NOTE: this comes with a Kidigi charging dock, as seen on TV.. I mean in the Google Photos album..
- Age: ooh.. 9 years? I got it a few months after release...
- Price: R500 (...or you can get the refurbished one for R8739 from Ubuy. lol)
- Warranty: not since it was 2 months old (unlocked bootloader, I kept swapping custom Android ROMs for a few years)
- Packaging: mostly original, got the box, but the charger and earphones are gone.
- Condition: actually pretty good.... considering it's been to Thailand.. and Dubai.. and (briefly) Ethiopia.. the camera sensor makes everything super green, sometimes purple (hardware issue).. battery lasts about a day, if you don't use it much.. I think I upgraded it Android 7 or 8 ultimately? way beyond what HTC themselves did.
- Reason: I figure somebody out there could have some fun with it..

- Item: Hisense T5 Plus
- Age: unknown.. honestly.
- Price: R300
- Warranty: narp..
- Packaging: original, but the charger is gone.
- Condition: semi-decent, battery isn't the worst, but it's on it's second charging port and it's connection is a little funky.. it comes with two nice completely unused nice shiny back covers though!
- Reason: it's taking up too much damn space.....
- Link: https://www.gizmochina.com/product/hisense-t5-plus/ (it's not on GSMArena? huh.. slackers....)
- Photos: Carbonite - Hisense T5 Plus
- Item: various video adapters:
- J5Create (JDA156) miniDP to Dual HDMI - R400
- Unbranded miniDP to single HDMI - R200 (this is unbranded, but it looks and feels just as sturdy as any J5Create product..)
- NXTech USB-C to Dual HDMI and USB-A - R250 (bought brand new from Takealot back in May, sounds like it has a loose piece of plastic inside, still works perfectly - if your laptop has "Display Port Alternate Host" support...)
- Manhattan HDMI to VGA - R50 (requires additional power through micro USB, at least 5V 1A - standard USB will handle it)
- Unbranded DP to HDMI - R50 (and yes, the DP safety clip sprint still works perfectly..)
- Age: most are about 6 or 7 years at least
- Warranty: not anymore.. except maybe the NXTech.
- Packaging: original for the J5Create and NXTech, not the rest..
- Condition: all perfectly functional, albeit a little dusty..
- Reason: some are from old PC builds, some were bought by mistake, some didn't fill the void in my soul that I hoped they would..
- Link: (meh.. just see the photos, it's easier for everyone)
