What have you just BOUGHT?

My latest purchases include a VC II light meter and a VC 15mm M-Mount lens. I went a little crazy this week with the camera gear but I am excited to receive both!
 
A Leica R4 with the Motor Winder within the past couple of weeks. Trying to narrow to one system so I'm trying out different things.
 
Another 2 pocket knives by the same maker. Top two models are new

Five litres of Ilford Multigrade developer, five litres of Ilford Rapid Fixer, two boxes of 20x16" Ilford paper, two boxes of 9 1/2x12 1/2" paper (one each, Ilford and Foma), one litre of Ilford Selenium Toner, two big bags of Kodak H.C.A., one litre of the Maco Selenium Toner (for comparison with Ilford), two small packs of Kodak Sepia bleach+toner. I'll be playing in the dark for a while :)

And, nearly forgot, a discounted pair of books, The Mexican Suitcase 1 & 2. A little surprising that this pair was priced down from 85 to 25 Euros, but I suppose they are not everyday Dutch purchases. I saw the exhibition and the premier of the film at Rencontre d'Arles.
 
Kyoritsu FL-200 focal plane shutter tester - big brown device from the mid seventies, when electronics labs still were analogue. Can test about a dozen shutter parameters. The timer display bridge is missing, but I have already succeeded at substituting that with a digital storage oscilloscope - I'll hack up a proper timer display whenever I have time to spare.
 
A Mamiya 645 1000s with the beautiful 80/1.9 attached to it and 10 rolls of expired Portra 160 NC for about 155€ for everything. And a Mamiya Sekor 65/3.5 for my C3. It has a little dent in the threadmount of the viewing lens and cost me 50€. What a great day it was yesterday.

A Yashica Electro 35 GS that only needed to have the battery spring and cover cleaned to make it work. I am running the first roll of film through it now.
 
Oh man, someone steals my SQ-A in bidding. I bidded very high, but he steals it, so I let him go with not much a bargain SQ-A, haha.
Then, well, I got a RZ67 Pro with winder and 50, 90 and 180 lenses.
 
OM-1 in black c/w 50mm 1.8 for a steal, next stop CLA.
And now a Konica Autoreflex 3 in black (and brass) c/w 50mm 1.8 for twice as much, or in other words, less of a steal but looks good on paper, we'll see this week.
