went back to river rock night market and bit the bullet on the dash cam:
They had two versions.
720 resolution for $50 or 1080 resolution for $70.
Fiance bought something else from the store, and they gave us a deal, so I got the 1080 for $60
Just bought it for shits and giggles. Don't have a big enough SD card yet, but once I do, I'll do a quick review of this car cam.
Turned it on a few times, no problems there. Exterior plastic is cheapo (expected).
But other than that, menu and user interface is simple and straight forward.
*The box says 720, but it's actually 1080. You can change the resolutions in the option menu*
Box includes: AV wires, USB connector, car adapter charger, and suction cup mounting hardware.

^ the squid was really good and fresh.
It's not expensive considering the amount but you really need to share it. Me and my fiancé had it and was stuffed full.

Went to the RiverRock one. Just typical nightmarket stuff, I didn't find anything too good.
Only thing I bought, was jumbo bbt for $5. My friend had green apple, which tasted pretty much like water and they offer free pearls, because they only give you about 15 or so.

The new one looks nice and all, but the old one is better in my opinion. You don't have to pay $1.50 |

first time going to any Richmond night market. Dont get the hype but then again maybe I'm old and i'm not into annoying LG's + you can buy basically everything thats being sold at the stands on ebay or most dollar stores for much less.
imo, the Chinatown night market is still the best when it first started up and had the two streets going. Reminded me of temple street

If you guys want to get a discount on foods, go really late at night, probably 1 hour before closing, those vendors had to clear the food out for the day, then they will give you a deal. Last time I got a big bag of pop corn chicken with a big bag of yam fries for $5 Original would have cost $8

If they cheated you out, just report to the Nightmarket's office. After few complaints they probably be ban from having a stand there in the future years

^^. Go at midnight to the OLD NightMarket and get killer deals because it's fucking dead there almost every night. By the end of the night the vendors just want to make a buck instead of throwing out food.
Great deals to be had.
