What's the most expensive thing you've ever bought?

[ThePresence]

Besides for a house or car

For me it's probably a $3000 guitar. :Q

 

[blackdogdeek]

engagement ring

 

[Fausto]

Does a motorcycle count? Otherwise it's a tossup between my newest road bike and my wife's engagement ring.

 

[Regine]

Comparatively?

My $175 Kate Spade purse - just because usually I don't spend more than $20 on a handbag.

Also my car and couch.

 

[MustISO]

Engagement ring and pool table

 

[Chaotic42]

Monitor: $368

 

[nater]

[lokiju]

probally my current PC, I did everything top of the end, I didn't go cheap on anything. Ended up spending total around $3,600.

 

[ElMono]

My old computer, $2000. But I paid only half of it.

 

[Yossarian]

private pilot license, $4000

 

[Hoober]

Wife's engagement ring.

 

[richardycc]

/me waits for single computer geeks to come out to tell us you are a fool to spend that much money, and how they would dump her if she doesn't like his 10$ engagement ring*

 

[jpeyton]

Laptop, $1100

 

[caitlion]

This I don't get. Sure it kicks ass for a year or so, but then you upgrade again. I wait until things drop off the bleeding-edge-high-price shelf and then buy.

Of course, I spent about the same amount of money on a bicycle, but it won't need upgrades in a year.

Two Klipsch RF5's

And that's why it's called the Skoorb effect.
