I am extremely tempted to use a credit card and just get this over with. my desk and chair sadly are not comfortable, and this would fix all issues.
comes standard with everything i would ever need, including triple monitor upgrade someday (even though doubt i would use it. I just don't know if it is worth pulling the trigger.
im down for thoughts on the issue, i have to make a change in the next month or so, as my comfort and back depend on it.

For me, $600 would be a lot to pay with credit. Looks like an awesome set up if you've got room for it (space would also be difficult for me), but it's not something worth the risk of putting yourself in debt. My cutoff point would be if I could cover $400-$500 of it now and pay the rest of it off within a month and spending that much wouldn't force me to live in an unlit, unheated corner of a building sucking on a block of salt for sustenance.
If you do get it, post pics as soon as assembled!

I would have to pay like 15$ a month until it was paid. so it would be debt. along with my other debt. i just have to find a way to get more comfortable, maybe someone here can give me suggestions, and there might be cheaper alternatives.
Attached is a picture of my desk. i am almost debating zip tying my X55 to my chair, but i hate the HOTAs being that far apart, its extremely uncomfortable

If it's the upright posture putting pressure on your lower back that's the problem, sometimes what I do is jam a pillow up against the backrest. Makes it a little less aggravating for sure. Desk chairs and the average desk definitely aren't made with flight sim peripherals in mind.

That setup is actually kinda nice. I've seen other comparably built rigs cost 1500.00 +
might look into this myself at some point.
That being said - say no to credit - having been down that road and thankfully now through it, I can tell you that the comfort you think you may gain for your physical body in the present will weight on your mind every moment you have that debt hanging over your head.
Go to a junk yard and get a chair from a car and be creative with the cinder blocks. Nothing wrong with that.
My chair sux to. But if I can't pay my credit card off every month then the simple truth is I can't afford it. I must wait. Have this same discipline and you will stay out of debt. This will ultimately be more comfortable than a silly chair.
15.00/mo would take over 5yrs to pay that off and you will have paid 3x what the listed price is in interest.

That's what I do. I have this cheap netted lumbar support that I stuff a small pillow behind to firm it up. Works OK. Still have to get up and move around a lot to keep the blood flowing.
I'm thinking of heading to a junk yard myself for now. A car chair would be a vast improvement.

thanks for the advice guys, i think a cheap seat from the junkyard and maybe some sturdier plywood/board in the shape of a pit will be better, and wayy cheaper in the long run. ill be getting things piece by piece and in small $ amounts of course.
