why do I feel the need to buy more pcb's .. lol

[swelchy]

Literally have about 10 builds populated that need enclosure work and I just ordered another pcb because of a coupon code..oh dear.. I'm hooked. Brown betty sounds like a nice pedal to build.

 

[dawson]

..you only ordered one?

Spend more than 50 and you get shipping…. Another 2%

15% is basically free money.
He’s paying you to buy the boards.
Then use the 15% to buy components. When you’re done, the net cost of each pedal is $0.00.
It’s like a pyramid scheme, except you are the guy at the top and the bottom. It’s a win-win.

Better yet use the grocery money! A juicy thick tone is just as filling.

I bought PCBs in the last two sales, but not this one. That's because (a) I still haven't received the PCBs I bought last time, and (b) the PCBs I'm most interested in are out of stock.

I inventoried my stash of pcbs over the weekend. You don't want to know how many I have

If you spend your kids' college savings on pcbs you don't have to wait for coupon codes.

Let’s all guess. I’m going to say 45??

Great... Now you tell me...

I always try to keep my orders under $50 to balance out the $hipping ¢harge$ yet still maintain an even keel on not overspending.
So what I should really be doing is spending $50-$60 to get a better balance.

The 15% off doesn't even cover half of the $hipping, but I'll take it ... ehr, buy it.

Why do you feel the need to buy more PCBs? Why do we do anything? It's a symptom of the kind of consumerist society we have become, where the sense of self and a sense of belonging have been replaced by quick retail therapy fixes; where love has been replaced by "likes"; where ownership of stuff gives a hollow sense of meaning to our otherwise pointless lives...

Or it could be just because it's fun.

Maybe we can twist @fig arm into running a contest about it. It'll be like "guess how many jellybeans are in the jar"

I look at purchasing a PCB like this.
You can blow 40 or 50 Bucks on a Dinner & Drink to enjoy & when your Finished, all you have is going to go down the Toilet!!!
You can spend 40 or 50 Dollars to make a Pedal & when your Finished you have the rest of your Life to enjoy it or sell it to make more pedals
that you can enjoy for the rest of your life! or sell it & .................!!!!

I'm on it. Bonus prize for the winner if you have more pcbs than me.

We could call it "Guess How Many VI?" to keep with an already popular running series

I will endeavor to make it so.

I don't want to know exactly how many PCBs I have in my backlog. That would make building all of them a dauntless chore instead of something fun to look forward to ...

I wanted motivation to not buy more. It's working so far

 

[Oh_Discordia!]

i like having a stack to pick from. I populate when i'm bored in zoom meetings.

If you don’t have at least 10 PCBs waiting to be built, you’re doing it wrong.
