What's the cheapest thing you had bought that by the end of its usefulness made you say "wow, this was worth a lot more than what I've paid for!" (sh.itjust.works)

Mine... My Xbox 360 slim only costed 129 euro back in 2012 and to this day still work like brand new, you would think that the disc drive would stop working but no. Never had the need of open it or clean it's insides. Still great, I just don't use it anymore since I feel it's outdated and loading speeds are better nowadays.

whats the interior of your wallet like. I like them but the interiors have been plastic and eventually break.

All metal with a nylon strap. Here is a link:

That company makes a lot of different kinds of metal wallets. There are other brands out there as well. But, that's why I use.

thanks. thats a neat design. I have been using the aluma wallet style and the interior tearing has been a weakness. This looks nice.

The strap is also easily replaced. I found a replacement one by going to the dollar store dog collar section and cutting it to length.

You can buy replacement wallet windows pretty cheaply if yours have deteriorated.

no the alumawalletesqe things have basically a plastic accordian inside. Thats what dies and its all one sorta unit. The one bej linked looks like it would not have an issue being it is a sort of card clip almost.
