I'm burning for this 2019...I've even sent in the request for a shipping quote. It will be painful at every level. But look at it!!! And yes, it looks a bit like my current one...but there are plenty of differences.
You deserve it.
End of story.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: R9 GAS
If it is a keeper (and with that top you should never, ever part with it), the purchase cost pain will subside much more quickly than the pangs of regret if you don't buy it.Molly wrote:In the long-run the shipping cost won't matter.

Re: R9 GAS
Could be a printed top though. Better sleep on it for a few weeks till such horrible feelings subside.
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

So don’t say it’s painful on every level, money can buy happiness, hooker or R9? The choice is yours, sir!

Re: R9 GAS
Actually, I can understand this. The money buys a lot of hooking...although I imagine you have "needs" that would attract quite the premium.Conway wrote:Not the choice I would've made.GrantB wrote:It's good to know I only have those choices....R9 it is!DongHua wrote:My R9 is my holy mother of fifi god forever.

Re: R9 GAS
So Grant, that does indeed look killer. What are the main differences construction wise to your current one? Does this one have the ‘custom buckers’, or is there a new secret sauce that they’ve gone with?
