Ever lose your mind and pay waaaaay too much?

[Sir Terrence the Terrible]

Hey, Terr, you wanna loan me a cool 80 thou?

Hey, I eat rice and beans in a flour tortilla everyday, I could use a warm 80 thou myself!

[Auricauricle]

Well, at least you have rice! Why I would give anything for rice.....When I was growin' up, we ate styrofoam...Styrofoam casserole, styrofoam brisket, styrofoam pate, styrofoam burgers....Now that was sufferin'! I tell you....

(Ahem!) Where was I?

Infact, making a small research about the product before you buy will definitely save you atleast a few bucks. Make sure that you make some research about a product before making a buy.

MY question is, this thread was started before Rich lost his mind.
How did the OP know?

[3db]

Nope. My financial advisor (my live in procurement officer) won't let me. ;P

[Happy Camper]

Yes. And that's all you'll get out of me. The financial advisor may read this.

I think people need to separate "buyer's remorse" from over paying for something which I thought what Worf was referring but I will let him clarify.

The feeling of paying way too much for something often accompanies "buyer's remorse" but is not neccessarily the case. I bought a early IBM portable computer (laptop would not quite be the term I'd use) when I was in sales back in the mid 80's. It ended up more or less a bust and at the time as a young newly married man the money could have gone to better uses. I regret buying it though the price was fair.

Buyers remorse usually follows over-paying me thinks

You're right. Paying a legitimate price for a big ticket item and then regretting the purchase altogether is "buyers remorse". Getting into a bid frenzy and paying 3 times what a set of old speakers are worth is what I'm talking about...... arrrgh.
