If you buy something you can't transport home yourself, Potburys Removals is pleased to offer a delivery service at competitive rates. If you live locally, this delivery will usually take place the day after the auction, at a time convenient for you. For smaller items bought in our Antiques & Decorative sales, we offer an in-house packing and postage service. An appropriate charge will be made according to the time spent on packing and materials used.

T&Cs & Important Info
We do not accept cardholder-not-present payments over £300
TERMS FOR BUYERS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE
1. All sales are conducted subject to Potburys of Sidmouth Auctioneers and Valuers (hereafter "Potburys") Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale which are displayed around the saleroom and printed in the sale catalogues and published on the website. The Buyer agrees to be bound by the Terms for Buyers and the Conditions of Sale, and acknowledges that the Seller is to be bound by the Terms for Sellers.
2. DEFINITIONS "Buyer" means the person who makes the successful bid (as defined in clause 13.3) and also, where appropriate, any person making a bid (by whatever means, including live internet bidding, and whether present at the auction or not) or any visitor to the auction room intending to view the sale or bid. "Auctioneer" means Potburys or its authorised auctioneer
3. AGENCY Potburys usually contract as agents for the Seller, therefore the Buyer's primary contract is with the Seller. For reasons of confidentiality the identity of the seller is not normally disclosed.
4. BUYER'S PREMIUM A Buyer's premium of 18% is payable on the hammer price of each lot, with a minimum premium of £1.00. VAT is payable on the buyer's premium at the prevailing rate. For live internet bidding in an Antiques and Decorative Sale, an additional premium will apply to buyers bidding through www.the-saleroom.com or through any provider of live internet bidding, and the buyer agrees to be bound by the terms of the provider
5. RESERVES All bids shall be offers made upon the Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale. Certain lots in all sales may be subject to reserve prices.
6. BIDDER REGISTRATION AND IDENTIFICATION Anyone intending to bid is required, before the commencement of the sale, to supply their name and address and, if requested, their bank and other suitable references. Proof of identity such as a passport or photographic driving licence may be required. Potburys will then supply a bidding number which should be used when bidding. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address supplied on the registration form.
7. ESTIMATES Estimates are intended for guidance only. Estimates are not routinely published in the catalogues for fortnightly General Sales, but are usually published in the catalogues for seasonal Antiques and Decorative Sales. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer's Premium or VAT. Estimates may be altered by announcement before the sale. This clause shall apply to estimates printed in the auction catalogues, published on Potburys' website (or on any website in which our catalogue is published), or supplied verbally by Potburys.
8. ARTIST'S RESALE RIGHT ("DROIT DE SUITE") If a Lot is affected by this right it will be identified with the symbol "^^" next to the lot number. The Buyer agrees to pay Potburys an amount equal to the resale royalty and Potburys will pay such amount to the artist's collecting agent. Resale royalty applies where the Hammer Price is 1,000 Euro or more and the amount cannot be more than 12,500 Euro per lot. The amount is calculated as follows: Royalty for the portion of the Hammer Price (in Euros):
4.00% up to 50,000
3.00% between 50,000.1 and 200,000
1.00% between 200,000.1 and 350,000
0.50% between 350,000.01 and 500,000
0.25% in excess of 500,000
Invoices will be issued in Pounds Sterling. For the purposes of calculating the resale royalty the Pounds Sterling/Euro rate of exchange will be the European Central Bank reference rate on the day of the sale.
9. CATALOGUE DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION
9.1 All statements in catalogues, advertisements and brochures, and verbal statements made by Potburys, are statements of opinion only, and neither Potburys or the Seller accept any liability for the correctness of such opinions. This clause is subject to clause 11 concerning deliberate forgeries
9.2 The catalogue descriptions (or any statements in advertisements and brochures) will not necessarily reveal damage, repairs or imperfections, therefore it is strongly recommended that the buyer should inspect the lot in person prior to bidding. The absence of any reference to condition in the lot description does not imply that the lot is in good condition or free from damage or in working order. The buyer is reminded that this is an auction, not a shop. In the vast majority of instances, the items sold are secondhand. Mechanical objects, in particular, may not be in original working order. All lots are sold as found whether or not they are described 'as found' or 'A/F' in the catalogue description. Please ask a member of Potburys' staff if you would like help in moving a lot to examine it, or if you would like to examine a lot in daylight, or to plug an electrical item into a socket to inspect it
9.3Electrical goods are tested for safety only, they are not tested to ascertain if they are in working order. No refund will be given if the lot is not in working order.
9.4 By making a bid the Buyer acknowledges his or her satisfaction with the condition and contents of the lot. Neither Potburys or the Seller accept any responsibility for the condition of any Lot.
10. CONDITION REPORTS A buyer who is unable to attend the auction room prior to a sale to personally examine a lot may request a condition report. Potburys will take reasonable measures to describe the condition of the Lot accurately, but no liability will be accepted for the correctness of that description. Any condition report will be subject to the disclaimers in clause 9. Potburys are not specialists in any field and a condition report prepared by us might not necessarily reveal every defect that a buyer might identify if inspecting the lot in person. Potburys do not have facilities to test gem stones and we are unable to examine articles under ultra-violet light. Potburys might not have time to respond to a request for a condition report received later than close of business on the working day preceding the sale.
11. FORGERIES
11.1 Notwithstanding clauses 9 and 10, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined in clause 11.2) may be returned to Potburys by the Buyer within 14 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If Potburys is satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery, we shall refund the money paid by the Buyer for the Lot including any buyer's premium. But such refund will not be made and the Buyer shall have no rights under this condition if (1) the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of experts as at the date of the sale or (2) the Buyer is not able to transfer a good and marketable title to Potburys. The right of return provided by this condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale.
11.2 "deliberate forgery" means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source but which is unequivocally described in the catalogue as being the work of a particular creator and which at the date of the sale had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description
12. EXPORT The export of any lot from the UK or import into any other country may be subject to one or more export or import licences being granted. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to obtain any relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence required or delay in obtaining such licence cannot justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making payment of the total amount due. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, eg: they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory.
13. THE AUCTION PROCESS AND BIDDING INCREMENTS
13.1 The bidding increments will be regulated at the sole discretion of the Auctioneer. All bids shall be offers made upon the Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale. Only bids in whole pounds shall be accepted
13.2 The auctioneer reserves the right to divide, consolidate, alter or withdraw any lot.
13.3 The maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid shall be settled at the auctioneer's absolute discretion by reoffering the Lots during the course of the auction or otherwise.
13.4 Once made, no bid may be withdrawn.
13.5 In the case of lots where the seller has placed a reserve, the auctioneer shall have the right to bid on the behalf of the seller, the maker of the highest bid acceptable to the auctioneer to be the Buyer.
13.6 In the event of any dispute, the auctioneer's decision shall be binding and final.
13.7 The Auctioneer reserves the right to accept or refuse any bid without supplying a reason.
13.8 Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals.
14 COMMISSION BIDS
14.1 For those unable to attend the sale, the facility exists to leave commission bids. Identification may be required of the bidder. Forms are available at the office, or can be downloaded from Potburys' website. Written bids on these forms are preferred, but commission bids may be left by telephone at Potburys' discretion.
14.2 The bidder should state the maximum he wishes to bid excluding buyer's premium. "Buy" or "plus one" bids are not accepted, and bids must be made in whole pounds. Lots will be purchased as cheaply as possible, subject to reserves and any other bids. Potburys will take all reasonable measures to execute a commission bid, but these are accepted on the sole risk of those leaving the bids.
14.3 It is strongly recommended that a bidder inspects the Lot prior to bidding on it. By leaving a commission bid, the bidder acknowledges that they are wholly satisfied with the condition of the Lot. Attention is drawn to clauses 9 and 10.
14.4 Where two or more commission bids are received at the same amount, Potburys reserves the right to prefer the bid which was received first.
14.5 Any person making a commission bid agrees to be bound by the Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale. Commission bids left through www.the-saleroom.com or www.invaluable.co.uk or through any provider of live internet bidding will be bound also by the conditions of that provider.
15. TELEPHONE BIDS The facility of telephone bidding is offered only for seasonal Antiques & Decorative sales, not fortnightly Generals sales, and is subject to telephone line availability. Any person making a telephone bid agrees to be bound by the Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale.
16. PAYMENT AND COLLECTION.
16.1 The Buyer is required to pay in full the purchase price plus premium and, if failing to do so, the remedies set out in Clause 19 shall apply. Legal title shall not pass to the Buyer of any lot until paid for in full in cleared funds, but each lot will immediately, on the fall of the hammer, be and remain in every respect at the risk of the Buyer.
16.2 Lot(s) must be paid for and collected on or before the Friday immediately following the sale, else storage charges shall apply (in addition to any charge provided for by Clause 19 of these Terms). The storage charges shall be at a rate depending on the size of the Lot(s) and shall not be less than £10 per week per Lot.
16.3 Potburys accepts payment by Debit Card, BACS, Cheque or Cash. Goods will not be released and title shall not pass to the buyer until the payment has cleared. Payment by Credit Card is subject to an additional fee of 2%+VAT of the total invoice. Please note we do not accept "card holder not present" payments over £300 - please contact us to arrange an alternative method of payment
16.4 To comply with current Money Laundering regulations, we will only accept payments in cash up to the equivalent of 15,000 Euros
17. COLLECTION OF LOTS PURCHASED All lots are to be paid for in full before being removed from the saleroom, and to be checked out by a member of Potburys' staff.
18. SALES WITH LIVE INTERNET BIDDING If a sale offers the facility for live internet bidding through www.the-saleroom.com or www.invaluable.co.uk or through any other provider of such service, then the Buyer shall also be bound by the terms and conditions of that provider. A Buyer bidding via the internet is respectfully reminded that it is necessary at the end of the sale for Potburys to reconcile its own accounts system with the records of the live internet bidding provider. In practical terms this means that it can take up to two hours after the end of the sale for Potburys to be able to issue the invoice to the buyer and process the buyer's payment.
19. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES
If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale, or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, Potburys as agent for the seller shall at its own absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights it may have, be entitled to exercise all or any of the following rights and remedies:-
(a) to proceed against the Buyer for damages for breach of contract;
(b) to rescind the sale of that Lot and/or any other Lots sold by us to the Buyer;
(c) to resell the Lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case the Buyer shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so arising shall belong to the seller;
(d) to remove, store and insure the Lot at the Buyer's expense and, in the case of storage, either at our premises or elsewhere;
(e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 2% per month on the total amount due to the extent that it remains unpaid for more than three working days after a General sale or seven working days after an Antiques & Decorative sale;
(f) to retain that or any other Lot sold to the Buyer until the Buyer pays the total amount due;
(g) to reject or ignore bids from the Buyer or his agent at future auctions or to impose conditions before any such bids shall be accepted.
(h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other Lots due or in future becoming due to the Buyer towards the settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a lien (that is a right to retain possession of) on any of your property in our possession until the debt due is satisfied. Potburys shall, as agent for the seller and on its own behalf pursue these rights and remedies only so far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these conditions.
20. AUCTION ROOM SAFETY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY All visitors to the premises are there at their own risk and visitors should familiarise themselves with the layout of the premises and take note of fire exits and health and safety signs. Potburys shall not incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason or our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting the premises. We shall have the right, at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.

The Seller acknowledges that the Buyer is to be bound by the Terms for Buyers and Conditions of Sale. BUYER'S PREMIUM is chargeable, all such commission shall be entirely retained together with VAT by Potburys.
2. DEFINITION "Auctioneer" means Potburys or its authorised auctioneer

3.1 The Sellers warrants that they are the true owner of the goods consigned for sale, or are properly authorised by the true owner to consign the goods for sale, and that they are able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. The Seller shall indemnify Potburys against any loss or expense caused by a breach of this clause.
3.2 The Seller acknowledges and agrees to indemnify Potburys for the return of any purchase money received in respect of any claims.

Lots not suitable for sale shall include (but not be limited to) items not conforming to the 1988 Fire Regulations. Any lots unsuitable for sale will be disposed of at Potburys' discretion and a charge will be made to the Seller for this service based on the cost of disposing of such items in accordance with environmental and other relevant legislation. In particular, the disposal of electrical items is subject to special conditions and charged accordingly.
6.2 Lots accepted for sale will be placed into the first available and appropriate sale, either a fortnightly General Sale or seasonal Antiques and Decorative Sale, at the discretion of Potburys. Due to constraints of floor space, it follows that Lots might not be necessarily entered into the first auction that follows the day on which the Lots are delivered to Potburys. Ordinarily, storage charges are not made under these circumstances
6.3 Low value items will not be entered into a subsequent sale if they do not sell at the first-attempt and will be disposed of and a charge for this made to the Seller. Low value items falling within the terms of this clause will be identified to the Seller in the pre-auction advice letter.

7.1 There are strict laws concerning the possession, sale, import and export of certain items including (but not limited to) firearms, ivory, taxidermy and birds eggs. The cost of any additional research or investigation relating to the sale of restricted items and, where necessary, the obtaining of a relevant licence for sale, shall be borne by the Seller.
7.2 The sale of alcoholic liquor is conditional upon Potburys being granted a licence to do so by the Local Authority. The cost of applying for this licence shall be borne by the Seller

9.2 Storage will be charged for any lots failing to sell and stored for collection by the Seller.
9.3 Storage is charged at a weekly rate of not less than £10 + VAT per week per Lot, with additional charges for large or special items.
10. CHARGES FOR WITHDRAWING LOTS The fee for withdrawing a lot after cataloguing but prior to sale is 10% of the reserve price or 10% of the value estimated by Potburys if no reserve has been agreed (with a minimum charge of £10)
11. POTBURYS' LIEN AND RIGHT TO SELL Sellers will be charged for goods left on the premises if the seller has been requested to remove them. If the goods are not removed within 7 days of such request, Potburys reserve the right to sell the goods and use the sale proceeds to defray costs and storage charges.
12. INSURANCE All goods held for sale on Potburys' premises and in our custody will be held insured against the risk of fire, burglary, water damage and loss, the value to be assessed by Potburys or their appointed assessors at Auction reserve price or the estimated price if no reserve has been agreed. Liability will not be accepted if the goods received have been insufficiently packed.
13. RESERVES
13.1 All goods are put up for sale WITHOUT RESERVE unless instructions are received by Potburys prior to the commencement of the sale. The Auctioneer will reserve the right to 10% discretion of the agreed reserve.
13.2 In the event of the reserve price not being attained at Auction, Potburys are empowered to sell after the Auction, by private treaty at the discretion of the Auctioneer, so long as the goods remain on Potburys premises. Such a sale by private treaty would be subject to the agreed reserve and the 10% discretion
13.3 Where a Lot(s) is offered for auction in a sale with a reserve, and that lot(s) does not sell because the reserve price is not reached, it shall be at Potburys' discretion to re-enter the Lot(s) in a subsequent sale at a reduced reserve.
13.4 If Potburys are given instructions by the Seller to sell a Lot at a certain reserve, and Potburys notifies the Seller in advance of the sale that they do not agree with that reserve, but at their sole discretion agrees to enter the lot into the sale at that reserve specified by the Seller, then in the event of that lot failing to sell because it had not reached its reserve price, a charge of 15% of the reserve price shall be made to the Seller.
13.5 Potburys at their discretion will not place a reserve on a Lot with a lower estimate of less than £20 in a General Sale or on a Lot with a lower estimate of £40 in an Antiques & Decorative Sale.

SALE RESULTS AND FUTURE MARKETING The seller authorises Potburys to publish results of sale of any lot consigned to Potburys for sale, and to use photographs and sale result of any lot in any future newspaper, magazine, or internet advertisement, on Potburys' website, or in any Potburys' marketing material.
18. COMMISSION BIDS The seller agrees to Potburys accepting commission bids on behalf of any Buyer, subject to the terms and conditions imposed upon the Buyer in this respect.

The Seller and the Buyer should note that the fact that an electrical item has passed a safety test does not imply that it is in full working order.

These brackets are used when installing a Fiamma Awning to your van using the rain gutters. The brackets come with all the necessary hardware to perform the install and work with the Sportsmobile Penthouse top. This bracket works on Ford/GM vans.
*The brackets will not work with passenger vans with windows due to no mounting location.
I used these mounts to put a ARB awning on my GMC Savana van. Worked great, just added some holes from mounting to the ARB. Seems like a solid setup.
Simple and effective mounting system for your awning. There is some drilling to be done but nothing to complicated. It would be nice if bit sizes were listed so there was no guess work on my end. Some simple instructions would be nice too for the money they cost.
I have these awning mounts for my Ford van, and while the mounting brackets themselves are great -- strong and durable finish -- the manner in which the rear & middle brackets (the wide ones pictured above) attach to the van is a poor design.
The bottoms of these brackets bolt right onto the sheet metal, so any awning motion will translate into sheet metal flex on your van, eventually leading to cracks in your paint as they alternately push and pull on the side of your van. If you do buy these awning brackets, and plan on spending any time driving rough roads, consider fabricating something to spread the load from the bottom of the rear and middle brackets so the bolts don't cause to pressure points on your sheet metal.
The front bracket is great, with a solid attachment point.
The brackets are nice. But it didn't come with the correct hardware nor any directions.
Lucky I don't mind doing any mods to my personal van.
So if you don't mind drilling 5 big holes into the side of your van then the brackets are a go. The location is the correct height as well.
All in all I would buy it again. And if they would have provided directions and correct hardware...maybe 5 stars???

Mont Orgueil Castle
Mont Orgueil, popularly known as Gorey Castle, is Jersey's most iconic landmark. Situated on the east coast of the island, the Castle was built in the 13th century to defend the island from attack by the French, whose coast could easily seen from the Castle battlements just 14 miles away. Unused and ruined in the 1600s, it subsequently became the main Jersey prison before being renovated in the 18th century for soldier's accommodation. It became a major tourist attraction in the mid-19th century after a visit by Queen Victoria, and became a museum in 1929. It remains the most famous and popular site in the Channel Islands and is breathtaking to visit.

Jersey War Tunnels
The complex of tunnels known as Höhlgangsanlage 8 (Ho8) has a special link to the war and the Liberation of Jersey. It was built between 1941-1943 using forced and slave labour from countries throughout German conquered Europe. It is the only accessible tunnel complex in Jersey of those built as a consequence of Adolf Hitler's order to convert the occupied British Channel Islands into an 'impregnable fortress'. Its construction involved the removal of some 14,000 tons of rock and the use of 4,000 tons of concrete to line its corridors and galleries. From late 1943 onwards, the complex was transformed from its original purpose as a bombproof munitions barracks and artillery workshop, into a casualty receiving station capable of coping with several hundred casualties in the event of an Allied invasion. Today the tunnel of Ho8 is the definitive museum of the German Occupation of Jersey 1940-1945.

Royal Square is an imposing keystone which holds many memories of Jersey's history. The Fanfare composed by Jon Lord based on a traditional Jersey melody "La Chanson de Peirson" will be premiered here on the very spot that Major Peirson fell in 1781 defending the island. On that day British troops including the Jersey Militia defended the island from French invaders in the Battle of Jersey. It was a short and fierce battle with the British forces under Major Pierson emerging victorious, preserving the freedom of the island. It was the last land battle to be fought on British soil. Bullet holes can still be seen on the granite walls surrounding the square. Sadly while his troops were victorious, Major Peirson died in the battle.
It was also from the balcony of the States Assembly that Sir Alexander Coutanche, the island's wartime Bailiff, informed islanders in 1940 that they were to be occupied by German forces and five years later that the island had been liberated.

Let's Rank the Fans!
For people who can't get enough advanced analytics
This is the first of an irregular series that examines the state of the NBA fan.
The following rankings are based on the following formula:
(D + I + O + S): Delusional (rated on a scale of 1–10), IRL Obnoxiousness (rated on a scale of 1–10 based on the actions of fans inside or outside the arena), Online Obnoxiousness (rated on a scale of 1–10 based on their social media presence), and Self-Destructiveness (rated on a scale of 1–10), for a total of 40 possible points.
TIER 1: Teams other fans love to hate
Warriors fans are enjoying the most remarkable runs of NBA success with three titles and four straight Finals. With that success comes the inevitable entitlement and arrogance of a team that is "light years ahead of probably every other team in structure, in planning, in how we're going to go about things," according to owner Joe Lacob. Naturally, fans would follow the owner's lead, and become some of the most preening fans in the NBA. Combine that with the smug tech bros from Silicon Valley who sit in all those box seats, and you've got some new contenders when it comes to the title of most hated fans in sports. But are they delusional when the team has been so historically good?
I would say that the delusion is the idea that they have created a template which other teams could copy. It basically goes like this:
Just draft a Hall of Fame player who is one of the greatest shooters in history, a DPOY-small ball center who runs the offense, an All-NBA level shooting guard ranked the fifth best three point shooter of all time, and a fourth All-Star player over a period of four years. Then sign your Hall of Fame player to a cheap contract because of ankle problems, allowing you to have the cap space to sign another MVP winner.
All of it could have come crashing down, but didn't, thanks to the Thompson's miracle game when trailing 3–1 in the series against OKC in 2016, the 2017 injury to Kawhi Leonard in Game 1 of the WCF (when they were trailing by as many as 25 points), and, of course the 0 for 27 three point drought by Houston in Game 7 last year. So, yeah, there's a decent amount of delusion to go around.
D Rating = 7/10
Warriors fans are super loud, but aside from that stupid chant "Warr-iors! Warr-iors!" their behavior is mostly loud and positive. At least they don't ignore their opponents and chant for tacos.
I Rating = 3/10
Online behavior is another thing. When you have the best team in basketball, why on earth would you go to another team's message board to troll fans? These fans don't even have the excuse of going after a hated rival, like the Celtics. But they do, and it's poor form. Not only that, but you can't even argue with them, because the Warriors play beautiful basketball, the way it's mean to be played. The fans are kind of like that Game of Thrones character who liked to squash beetles.
Ich bin ein Käfer
O Rating = 10/10
As far as being self-destructive, we'll just have to wait to see what happens when something really goes badly for the Warriors. For now, the extent of their self-destructive behavior is flying drones in a restricted area during a victory parade.
S Rating = 0/10
Golden State Fan Rating: 20/40
Since those two titles in the 90s, Houston used to be a nice little team that could win a playoff series now and again. But Daryl Morey had other ideas about their place in the NBA. Obsessed with creating a team that could beat the Warriors, Morey brought together two of the whiniest players in NBA history and a coach who adopted an iso-heavy style of play that is boring to watch. Add in all the dirty tricks and flops that Harden and Paul use to draw fouls and you've got a team that doesn't even need to win a title to be despised.
But the piece de résistance had to be the "memo," leaked by Houston that proved they should have won the championship last year because they had so many calls go against them. That is some of the funniest, meme worthy bullshit of all time. And their fans swallowed it like it was the Holy Eucharist.
"I just want a fair chance, man"
When things go wrong, just tell the press that James Harden sent you.
This has put Houston's fans in the same situation as Agent Orange's press secretary and just about everyone else in that administration — they have to lie non-stop about bad behavior already recorded on video or twitter for all the world to see.
Typical Rockets fans excuses include: "that's not a travel, James has incredible footwork;" "that's not an offensive foul, the opponent used telekinesis to force Jame's arm to hook around it as he went up for a shot;" "that's not a flop, the defender's aura hit James squarely in the face." Whether Houston fans believe this nonsense or not, the rest of the NBA regards them as being off the charts delusional.
D Rating = 10/10
Last year, losing a game 7 against the Warriors led to an "altercation" in the stands. But even the fighting is lame in Houston, so it's tough to come down too hard on Rockets fans for pushing and hat grabbing.
This year, the fans upped their in-arena game, and chanted "New York Knicks" at Kevin Durant. I guess it's a little creative, but this doesn't approach the level of obnoxious behavior you'll find in a traditional Eastern Conference fan.
When it comes to online participation, the combination of pushing their delusional and dishonest narrative, while trolling on other teams' message boards represents a championship level of obnoxious discourse. Hopefully, it will be the only championship they win for a long while.
When it comes to self-destructiveness, this is one area where Houston does not have a problem. They can always drown their sorrow in dance.
Of course, in the case of some fans, that might still be interpreted as a form of self-punishment.
Houston Fan Rating: 23/40
People love to talk about Lakers exceptionalism. It's a form of delusion in which L.A. fans think great players will play for the Lakers because of the good weather, huge media exposure, hot women, and the chance to be part of a great winning tradition. Considering no team has won more titles since 1980 (10 banners, 10 rings, 10 titles to rule them all — just needed a confidence booster after these last six years… one, two, three… ping pong balls!!), and the fact that four of the 10 best players of all time (Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, and LeBron) left their team to come to California, some people might actually believe that nonsense in spite of the obvious evidence that the owner and front office are beyond incompetence… and that's AFTER Magic resigned!
What makes the whole "Lakers fans are completely delusional" such a big part of the media's narrative is the fact that so many Kobe fans cling to the idea that he is the GOAT and actually did NOT want LeBron to come to the Lakers.
Can you imagine anything more delusional that an NBA fan NOT wanting their team to sign LeBron James (even the now mortal version) to a 3-year contract?
Just the above fact alone puts Lakers fans at the top of the heap when it comes to being delusional.
Lakers fans just want to look at their phones and hope they get on the Jumbotron, so they don't have much to say about opponents, other than to cheer wildly for free agents (Paul George, Anthony Davis) they hope might come to L.A.
Lakers fans leave the fan-on-fan brawls in the area to hooligans… from Canada? About the only real chant Lakers fans use against a team is their old rivals, the Celtics. Here's a video from the 2010 Championship Parade. See if you can make out the chant.
Lakers fans most obnoxious trait at games is to chant "We want tacos!" when the team is winning and the opponents are under 100 points near the end of a game. It is an old Jack in the Box promo left over from a time before NBA games turned into 3-point Pop-A-Shot.
This video is absolutely hilarious, showing Kobe's competitiveness while his fans chant "MVP! MVP!" As far as the obnoxious quality of the chant, opponents aren't even regarded with enough respect (except the Celtics) to even be the subject of the chant. But having a bunch of celebrities and rich assholes in those $1000 seats cheering to win a 99¢ taco has got to be irritating.
Given the city's huge media reach and the number of Lakers fans all over the world, they have an extremely high online presence, mostly telling the world how Lonzo, Kuzma and Ingram are constantly screwed by the refs, with half of them reminding people of how great Kobe while trashing LeBron, and the other half getting on their knees to worship at the feet of LeBron.
O Rating = 8/10
As far as being self-destructive, there's just too much else to do when the team loses, with the beaches and winter ski area less than 90 minutes from Staples Center and the entertainment capital of the world beckoning with its bright lights and swank restaurants.
Just watch out for the "knuckeheads" who come out when the team wins a championship and try to turn a celebration into their own personal excuse to act like the idiots they are the other 364 days of the year. Personally, I think these people were just disgruntled Boston fans.
L.A. Fan Rating: 25/40
Any LeBron NBA Finals Team
Nothing inspires more controversy and fan hatred than a successful LeBron team. Ever since "The Decision," LeBron has been villified more than any modern player. You'd have to go back to Bill Lambeer and the Bad Boy Pistons to find a team more hated than LeBron and his guys.
Are LeBron fans delusional? After all, he seems to be regarded as one of the top 5 players of all time (except, of course for delusional Kobe fans). But his career isn't over, so maybe it's still a stretch to start having discussions about him being the GOAT. (Especially after a nothing-to-write-home-about season with the Lakers).
If we average the insane expectations of Miami Heat fans with the reduced expectations of long-suffering Cleveland fans, coupled with 8 consecutive NBA Finals appearances and 3 championships, team LeBron fans don't hit the same level as some of the true crazies in this group.
When it comes to their behavior inside and outside of the arena, LeBron fans are legendary for their quick tempers. One day you've got arena-sized billboards where they are "witnesses" for the Chosen One, the next day, they're burning his jersey.
Meanwhile, others simply jumped ship and swam toward Miami. Many Miami fans didn't embrace the team early on, giving the Heat the distinction of being the worst fans in the NBA. Or they become haters once he moved back to Cleveland. Or, they get in a fight after winning a title in the opponent's arena and a Warriors fan got thrown over a second-level deck railing by a Cavs fan. That's pretty bad form on all fronts.
LeBron has become such a controversial person and has such a big online presence that both his own fans and his detractors are obnoxious, and their battles tend to crowd out everything else.
When LeBron left Cleveland in 2010, riots broke out. When he won a title in Cleveland, fans had similar "fun" as a group of fans jumped on a police car. And when he left Cleveland in 2018, one fan set himself on fire. That's not good, but it could be worse.
LeBron Fan Rating: 31/40
When a team has had as much success as the Celtics did in the 50s, 60s and 70s (13 titles), it's normal that they would have a high level of entitlement, almost as high as the Lakers. But Boston fans still have to deal with bad weather, a 100-year-old baseball curse, and a permanent inferiority complex when compared to New York in everything except sports.
Being located near ESPN headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut, the Celtic media bias feeds the already delusional fans to an unparalleled level. If they could, Boston fans would willingly draw an "11" on the delusional knob, just to prove they're even better in that category than the hated Lakers.
This fatal flaw extended up to the front office, causing perhaps the biggest mistake in franchise history, as the Celtics believed their own hype and refused to trade Jaylen Brown and some draft picks for the guy on the left.
Kawhi Leonard is a Finals MVP, DPOY, and All-NBA fixture. He is the only living being — human or otherwise as some people might claim — who has won playoff series against Kevin Durant and LeBron James. And Boston fans believe that Brown and Tatum are going to be better players than him.
D Rating = 11/10 (Congrats on beating the Lakers again)
When it comes to their behavior inside and outside of the arena, Boston fans are legendary for their "passion". Here's an example. It takes a lot of passion to sacrifice a good bottle of vodka (there had to be at least a couple of drops left) to throw at opponents. Watch both KG and Lamar Odor jump out of the way.
But it's only one bottle. And their basic chants of "Beat L.A." "Let's Go Celtics" and "Refs You Suck," are pretty standard issue. Unfortunately, the NBA is cracking down on this kind of behavior and one "passionate" fan was banned for 18 months after he was found guilty of racially abusing Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus cousins in a game this January.
Their behavior toward the Lakers in those Finals during the 80s (throwing things at and shaking the team bus, calling the players' hotel room at all hours of the night, etc) wasn't much better. At least, they didn't try to poison opposing players (See the Sacramento Kings).
It's hard to separate the Boston fans from the media narrative. All season long, all we've heard is "Boston has the most talent in the East," along with other nonsense. Even after the Celtics lost to the Bucks in 5 quick games (after the win in Game 1, Boston trailed by 10–25 points in the fourth quarter of each of the four losses), the lead story in the Athletic had this headline "So much talent, so much drama, so much disappointment. Celtics never found the answers"
The other obnoxious online behavior by Celtics fans was their presence as trolls on other fan sites. In 2016, as the Lakers suffered through another terrible season, hearing Bill Simmons and the online trolls relish the idea of getting the Lakers' top 3 protected pick on the L.A. message boards was beyond obnoxious, but understandable as the Lakers-Celtics rivalry goes so deep, a number of ex-Lakers players still refuse to wear green.
In the old days, before the city won 12 titles in four major sports since 2000, Boston fans might have spent a lot of time drinking at their favorite bar and getting into the occasional fight at the arena. Now, Boston fans spend a lot of time drinking at their favorite bar and getting into the occasional fight at the arena.
Here are Celtics fans fighting each other, even when they're wearing the same Rondo jersey, and another video of the Washington's only playoff win as "Wizards Fan Knocks Out Celtics Fan At Game 7." To be fair, a Celtics fan did enter the fray and blind sides the victorious Washington fan.
S Rating = 7/10 (it's like diving judge where they have to leave room with their early scoring, knowing the real heavyweights, like Philadelphia and Detroit, are still to come).
Boston Fan Rating: 35/40

Samsung Portable SSD T5 Review
Posted by Admin | Feb 4, 2018 | Uncategorized | 0 |
If you use a computer, perhaps the most significant development in the past few years has been the rise of solid-state drives aka SSDs. GPUs continue to evolve at a fast pace, but the improvements in the performance of most other PC components has been incremental at best – that's if you don't count SSDs. If you are someone who's made the switch from a hard disk to a SSD as your primary storage medium, the difference in performance can be like night and day.
While prices of internal SSDs have come down to a point where many can afford to buy a machine where at least part of the storage is solid-state, most external storage solutions still tend to involve hard disks. Part of the reason is, of course, cost. While low-capacity SSDs have become accessible, the capacities of external drives on average tend to be a lot higher, which means you are looking at pretty high costs of entry. You could justify this a bit because of the higher speed that you get, but that has traditionally been a problem as well.
With the introduction of USB 3.1 – specifically USB 3.1 Gen. 2, which theoretically offers speeds of up to 10Gbps – that's beginning to change. While we might not come anywhere near those theoretical speeds just yet, today we have a drive that aims to offer the fastest portable SSD experience till date. Does the Samsung T5 live up to that claim? Let's find out in our review.
Samsung T5 design and box contents
At 51g and 74×57.3×10.5mm (3.0×2.3×0.4 inches), the Samsung T5 is practically identical to its predecessor – the T3 – in terms of size and weight. It's a tiny bit smaller than most credit and business cards, but a little bit thicker than the average smartphone. You won't have any trouble fitting it in your pocket.
Like other SSDs, the T5 no moving parts. Samsung says it can handle drops of up to 2 meters, though we weren't tempted to test this claim. The drive is rated for use between 5°C and 35°C, with humidity between 10 and 80 percent.
The two-colour finish on the Samsung T3 has given way to two distinct aluminium finishes – Alluring Blue on the 250GB and 500GB capacities, and Deep Black for the 1TB and 2TB models. In the box, you get the Samsung T5 SSD, a manual, and USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C to Type-C as well as Type-C to Type-A cables, which is great.
Samsung T5 specifications, features, and performance
The Samsung T5 has support for USB 3.1 Gen. 2 connectivity, which offers theoretical speeds up to 10Gbps; double of what the T3 supported with USB 3.1 Gen. 1. Of course the actual speeds you can expect to get are much lower. The Samsung T5 is rated for transfer speeds of up to 540MBps, a 20 percent bump on paper compared to the T3.
We connected the Samsung T5 to a HP Spectre 13 laptop using the bundled Type-C to Type-C cable to run some benchmarks and find out if it lives up to its claims. In CrystalDiskMark v6.0.0, we recorded sequential reads of over 550MBps and sequential writes of 499.9MBps, with the former topping Samsung's own claims. With a queue depth of 32, we got random read and write speeds of 150.7MBps and 147.2MBps respectively, which are great. Our real-world experience was equally good, and we were able to copy a 5.2GB file from the SSD on a 13-inch 2016 MacBook Pro laptop to the Samsung T5 in 10 seconds.

Like many other external drives, the Samsung T5 comes pre-formatted as exFAT. Our 500GB review unit had roughly 465GB of space available for use. Unlike some other vendors, the bundled software is pretty barebones, and though we like that for the most part, Samsung might have taken this too far. The drive contains setup files for an application called SamsungPortableSSD for Windows, Mac, and Android, whose primary function is to facilitate password-based hardware encryption.
When you install and launch the app, you are prompted to set a password for the drive. If you ignore this, you can use the Samsung T5 like any other drive. If you do set a password, however, you need to enter it every time you plug the drive in to a host device. The device will need to have the SamsungPortableSSD application installed on it for you to unlock the drive's contents. If the app is not installed, you will see a read-only partition with the setup files for the three platforms we mentioned above (the Android version is just a text file with a link to the location where you can download the app).
We tested this feature and found that it works as advertised, with no difference in performance in synthetic benchmarks. Note that if you forget your password, there's no way to restore access to the contents of your drive. You can, of course, format the drive and reuse it, though you will obviously lose whatever was on it before.
The SamsungPortableSSD app also lets you check for firmware updates for your drive. We would've liked at least some additional functionality, such as the ability to see the health/ status of the drive without needing to resort to third-party utilities. The drive has an LED that lights up solid blue when it's plugged in/ idle, blinks blue when you are reading/ writing, and blinks red once when it's safe to remove the drive or when the computer is in sleep mode.

The best things in life might be free, but that's certainly not the case when it comes to computer hardware, where the adage 'you get what you pay for' is more appropriate. The Samsung T5 starts at Rs. 14,000 for the 250GB model, and goes up all the way to Rs. 80,000 for the 2TB model, which is more than what you'd pay for a premium laptop. Of course these are the MRPs, and we found the 250GB model retailing at Rs. 9,999 on Amazon India. The 1TB model is currently listed at at Rs. 29,999 as opposed to its MRP of Rs. 40,000. All models come with three-year warranty.
The 500GB model we reviewed sells for around Rs. 16,500 online, compared to its MRP of Rs. 21,000. At this price, it seems like a pretty sweet deal for a product that we don't really have any complaints about. If you are in the market for fast, portable SSD in India , you don't need to look beyond the Samsung T5.
