My current collection of old tech! I love functional simplicity so much
A whopping ZERO dollars [minus SD cards] has been spent on my camera collection. Half were on the front porch of my local thrift store for free, the other half were from my aunts. The first one, my aunt actually used when she was a young adult, and the second one was "junk" my other aunt found that she was going to throw out, before she thought of offering it to me.
$3-5 in total [garage sale]
I DO have more, but they are either to broken to use (courtesy to my father) or I have forgotten to list them. Also technically these are shared, so they're not exactly "mine", though I (and sometimes my sister) do use them the most.

My family hates me for it but this IS my monitor, like, this isn't sitting around collecting dust, I play new games and surf the web on this boxy piece of junk that's as old as my sister. It's covered in Lisa Frank stickers, and holds my favorite beanie babies on the top. I also have a 2008 webcam I occasionally use with it, but it's annoying when discord tries to switch the input to that thing, so I usually have it unplugged.

Apparently the last year or two, my uncle got into collecting old CRT TVs, VHS', and PS1-2 games. He told me he had an extra CRT TV that he'd stored incase he needed a backup, but it was taking up a lot of space, so since my aunt was going on about how much I loved 90s-00s stuff, he offered it to me
