Awesome Garage Sale/Meetup

roncalara

You guys are great, I was first in line and asked for an Msi 970 from Yvonne and Nick. They helped me out a ton BUT LITTLE DID I KNOW it was a msi 970 gaming MOTHERBOARD. I got a r9 285 instead and Edzel spent 20 minutes looking for a PCI E 6 pin to molex, lol. Went to the tour and after I got Luke and Linus to sign both signatures, awesome. 

 

R9 285 for $150 :D

Cool sounds like a good time. Were people there mostly for "deals" or for the community too?

Ya it was really great. The Office tours were my favorite part.

I picked up a drive bay adapter and a Bitfenix headset. I already have a bunch of tech stuff so I didn't buy anything big. + I'm also going to school so my budget was small.

Wish I brought my Fractal case side panel though; I saw other people bring theirs to sign and I wish a brought mine QQ.

 

Anyways hope he does it again next year. Twas a blast!

The Meetup was awesome! Every member of the team was very enthusiastic and took the time to sign/take pictures with everyone (and it was hectic lol)!

I didn't have the need to pick up anything from the garage sale mainly because things that I was looking for were already sold by that time. 

Wasn't too bad though because other people there were so nice and fun to hang around with.

 

NickV and I actually messed around with our self balancing scooters and it was awesome. 

Can't thank you guys enough for inviting us over to the new office and meet you guys!

 

Goodluck!

Hope you enjoy your icecream cake, LMG!
