Post some things that you were genuinely happy to unbox/Buy/Receive.

My Macbook Pro Retina. Taking that thing out of the plastic *shivers*. And yes, I know I have sinned. Let the hate flow.

Also my Mionix Avior 8200. That thing was in such great packaging. Mionix really thought about it. And my Kraken Pro's, because Razer packaging.

It feels as though no games ever leave the BETA stage anymore, until about 3 years after it officially releases. - Shd0w2 2014

When I got my Macbook pro fully spec'd out in 2008, I had the same exact feeling

Any of my PC builds, always love having so many shiny boxes to open! Better than Xmas.

 

And probably my iPhone 3GS back in 2009, I'd never seen packaging like that on a phone and I remember being blown away by the performance compared to my friends 'Droid phones.

 

Oh and probably my PlayStation 1 and 2 in my younger days, unboxing those on Xmas mornings were epic experiences! I can still remember playing Crash Bandicoot 1 on my brand new DualShock PS1 while stuffing my face with Xmas chocolates. Priceless.

 

Although pulling the bubblewrap off the Evo 6 engine that was replacing the blown motor in my Evo IV was a pretty great morning too!

The entirety of my PC unboxing experience. Just the feeling of pulling every piece out, and knowing that I myself payed for it all made it an unforgettable moment for me.

Something, something, something, famous quote, computer specs, and stuff...

Almost anything that a piece of tech, I hardly get new stuff :/, though my PC and my Xbox (like 5 years ago) get a bigger piece of the cake, I must say

A Dell Inspiron 3000 desktop with 12GB of RAM and the i5 4440. Obviously I could care less about graphics horsepower at this point. I'm more about processing power right now.

 

Hopefully this Christmas I'll get it, and then I'll tell you guys about it.

 

Stuff I've already gotten is the motherboard from @Ryan Leech, and either my Sempron or my CX430M.

Everything I've bought, second-hand bought or new. Doesn't matter.

 

Just the excitement of getting a product you previously didn't have (or in other cases, more of it), and with used stuff, it's exciting to see whether the product meets the expectations or has it been over-glorified when it was for sale.

 

Last thing I 'unboxed' was some British military surplus clothing. Though I gotta say, I rarely get to unbox new stuff, but when I do, it just feels a lot better. Like the last new thing I 'unboxed' was Koss Porta Pro headphones. Felt refreshingly new. But still, I'm genuinely pleased about most of the things I receive on my own will.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.
