COVID's also likely put a damper on this sort of purchasing I'd imagine as well. As cool as a JDM firetruck is, with the uncertainty whether you'll have continued employment I can see potential buyers being much more hesitant to buy right now. Still good to hear it wasn't a loss.

For the last couple years I've been just getting the flagship phone right before the new flagship was going to come out during the holiday promotions at Costco. Typically there's $250-400 in Costco gift cards with it, phone's marked to $20 to pay in store, and my plans have steadily risen from $55 to $75 /month over the years on a 2 year contract with, at least on paper, a large chunk of the monthly payment going towards the cost of the phone. With the earlier contracts it was something like $43 of my monthly bill was alloted to the device balance and only $12 was the voice/data service portion. Last I looked the BYOD plans weren't cheap enough to be a better deal with buying a phone outright for a comparable plan so I've just kept going with the cycle. More expensive in the long run that sticking with a decent older phone and a grandfathered plan but eh, it scratches that "gotta have the latest and greatest" itch without being too ruinous. All prices in CAD for reference.

Assholes who run these companies are the reason I have to believe Hell exists, because they sure aren’t being punished in *this* life. Hell does not exist comrad, we'll need that assurance of injustice to fuel the people's revolution! Now, get to sharpening.
