What have you just BOUGHT?

Photography related:

100 sheets of Freestyle Private Reserve 8x10 RC paper. I'll try it out and see how it compares with the Ilford RC paper I've been using.

Non-photography related:

After reading a post about Fountain Pens here on RFF, I decided to take the plunge and ordered a Lamy Safari Fountain Pen and some Noodler's bottled ink. The last time I used a Fountain Pen regularly was when I was in 5th grade and used a fountain pen. I didn't use bottled ink at the time, but went through many, many cartridges in the course of doing my school assignments.

waiting on a Gossen Digisix meter. bought one two weeks ago as a dealer demo on eBay for only $50 (can you say: "too good to be true?"). it drained two batteries in six days (is that why that call it a digiSIX?). anyway the seller was kind enough to give a full refund, so I'm waiting on a new one. it's a great little meter.
 
SOOFM shade for my recently acquired collapsible Summicron. Still in the mail, should be fun to use. :) I'm a sucker for nifty things like folding, spring-loaded shades that nobody would dream of making these days....

Finally I have acquired a leica M4-P. I look forward to using it.

congrats thomas. Sorry bout snagging the one in here earlier. But happy it all worked out. i've been using mine 24/7, snuck it into a concert last night and the all black really helped me get away with it :angel:
 
Waiting for a A4 sized Mamiya light-panel to arrive hopefully intact and working. Also Polaroid Image System and 15 packs of Polaroid Spectra and some rolls of 120 Kodak EPR & Fuji 800Z.

Oh, almost forgot 2 packs of Polaroid 125i.

Congrats on finding a nice copy of the Contax I(b), even the case looks above the norm for this camera. Seems to me that you have been looking for one of these for awhile now, guess your patience has paid off. :)
 
A used Leica mini 3 P&S. It does long exposure, unlike my old Ricoh FF-9. Apart from the lack of DOF control, there's not much a Leica M6 and 35mm ASPH Summicron can do that a single focal length compact can't. People do tend to give you funny looks when they hear the film wind; it's like seeing a steam locomotive at your local railway station! "Can you still actually buy film?", I was asked recently.
