Relax bro... it's cheap compared to me collecting Die Cast cars. I reckon I'm spending over $1000

At least my hobby though is something which is also an investment (as is yours as it's physical hardware). However someone who buys computer games is at a dead end as they're expensive and don't retain their value. That's why you get hardcore games buying games from EB, and thrashing them, finishing them within a week, then re-selling them to try and gain maximum value while they're still hot on the market.

Fair enough, but it's not like you buy those things every year.

As for your full motion cockpit... did you have put that bit in at the very end?!

No I got it ,and still getting over bits and pieces then work out how to build an interchangeable system around it . Examples when racing have a hydraulic hand brake with sequential shifter where my helicopter collective and jet throttles would be ,it's a headfuck

But my problem is I'm not a collector of certain things but when there is a bargain I'm a sucker for it. I won't just buy one, I'll come home with 3-4 of them, wait for it to go back to normal price and then annoy my Mrs with the bargain of the year speech that I found until she cracks the shits at me.

I just can't resist a bargain, I urge you guys to get on Amazon USA and search something of interest , something will pop up that is a ridiculous bargain and you have to buy. Must.

I don't mind a bargain except when it comes to hookers, you can't skimp on that shit unless you wanna play a game of dodge that STD. Unless your all for the $20 meth whore giving quick blowies in the back alley.

exactly most guys are too cheap to pay good money on a whore so it decreases the chance they will get clients who have a sick dick to spread infectious disease!

most guys who have money and pay for high end escort services are weirdos who don’t fuck anyway!
They’re into other weird messed up stuff which can’t be spoken about here cause the bulldogs is a family forum or some rubbish like that?

i don’t have too many flaws but my weakness is a bargain. It could be a car, a tv, a watch, a Xbox, whatever, I’m just a sucker for a bargain.

When I’m at coles, anything half price or 40% off, I buy. Give me a 2 or one deal and I’m done. Black Friday sales I basically have to place myself under arrest but with online shopping, I still manage to do a deal.

What have you bought that you don’t reall need but because it was a bargain, you couldn’t resist?

I buy a new TV every time there is a big sale, i bought shoes because it was a steal of a deal, when I went to the USA, I spent about $2-3k on clothes but I couldn’t believe the prices, (we get so ripped off in AUS).

If dog food was half price at coles, I think I’d buy it and I don’t even have a dog.

What bargains were too good to resist for you?
Since there are big sales every other month, you must own like 45 tvs lol.

I have been clean since Sunday. No purchases.. 3 days in but I have a few things in my cart ready to hit the go button.

What's holding me back..those damn 5 setters in the tennis getting in the way of me finding an even better deal.
