This. I bought my first electric guitar for $43 from a Salvation Army on eBay back in January (ok it was like $93 with shipping.) I spent less than a hundred to get it set up at a local shop and I'm still really happily playing it daily nearly a year later with no real plans to upgrade.
I always try to buy used for new hobbies as much as possible because who knows if they will stick (I'm super happy this one did; guitar is SO FUN and it has been a lifelong dream to learn how to play. After 20 years I finally figured out I needed a lefty guitar to be successful. Better late than never!)
I'm a pro photographer and Backblaze has saved my butt multiple times.
I wish kbin had a save feature; I'm replying so I can find this later 😆
I can't speak about Linux support, but I bought a used Brother monochrome laser printer on Craigslist for $60 and expect it and the toner cartridge to last approximately until the heat death of the universe. Unlike inkjet, laser printers can sit for a very long time without being used.
