TOPIC | Regretful Buying
1 2 3 4
Did you ever buy something that you really liked, but regretted it sometime later? I wanna hear about it! I got a Black Parade jacket (its a bandom thing) a while back, and it fits, but it's kind of tight around the armpits and even though I love it I'm really worried I'm going to grow out of it. The thing is, I paid $100 for it, and I really don't want to spend that kind of money again on something like that, even though it's very dear to my heart. The jacket looks like this: [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/cf/e9/4c/cfe94c9f6be3e58b4c136b1aa7f409d8.jpg[/img]

@startree When I was still in my weeaboo phase, I bought this Akira statue from "Togainu no Chi" series. [img]https://www.komikuri.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/kotobukiya-togainu-akira-damaged-limited-illustration-02.jpg[/img] It was my first and the last statue. Why I bought it? I honestly and truthfully can't remember. I still kinda like it, I mean, its really well done, but having it feels kinda off. Especially, when I remember what "Togainu no Chi" is about and how sinful I am for knowing that. XD When a friends or family members ask why is that guy in such state and what is he from, what am I supposed to say? From that japanese, brutal, gay game? AWKWARD! I'm thinking about reselling it to someone who could enjoy it more than I do, but I feel kinda attached to it. :'D

when i was in my preteens and i was trying to look more into anime and manga, i looked into more popular series like naruto and one piece because Why Not. i ended up getting really into bleach, and i bought a ton of the manga whenever i went to the book store.

anyway its years later and i fell out of bleach pretty quickly and. really don't like the series now? but now i have a bunch of these expensive mangas just collecting dust on my bedroom shelf and its Embarrassing.

I used to be really into Batman and at some point I ended up with my bathroom being completely covered in Batman. Everything is Batman. At least half of it wasn't bought by me personally. I purchased the first several items and then my family got me the rest.

I still like Bats, but I'm not as big as fan as I used to be.

@startree I'm big on collecting things, so back when MLP was SUPER popular (aka the brony movement), every time I'd go to the mall or walmart I'd come out with 3 or 4 toys and maybe a plush. Now that I'm over it my room is filled with mlp merch. It's cute, but I kinda wanna get rid of it to make room for the collections I'm actually serious about (star wars, pokemon, and anime figures).

Edit: I also convinced my parents to buy me a $120 cosplay from milanoo for my birthday. Lets just say I wore it once and it fell apart.

A lot of the time it's something I don't even want, but the sales person spends so much time with me trying to get me to buy something and I feel guilty telling them I'm not actually interested in the end, and, well...

The last time this happened I bought a $150 hair straightener that I've so far used maybe twice in the six or so months I've had it. It works really well but it takes so long to get through all my thick, curly mess and I can't do it too often or apparently I risk damaging my hair. The double wammy is that I looked up the same brand on amazon and they have them on sale there for like 20 bucks.

Not amused. :I

Also, I have like 10 hats that I've bought and never wear. And they're not cheap hats either.

I kinda regret buying my Nintendo DSi. It's not that it's terrible or anything but I saved up for it and bought it and not too long after that the 3DS was released and there are so many games for that that I'd like to play but I just feel very ugh about spending a load of cash on another gaming system (plus games) when I already spent a load of cash on this other one.

I bought so many anime figures in high school for series I'm not into anymore... :'|
Sold most of them, but I'm still trying to get rid of a few Vocaloid and Kancolle things.

Bought a TON of Rainbow Loom bands a couple years ago, when it was still pretty popular. Now I have like, $200 dollars worth stuck in a drawer and I don't want to get rid of it since I spent all that but it's just taking up space... ugh
I also collect Star Wars Legos- I have maybe half of all the TFA ones that are out now, but a couple months ago I bought the Naboo Starship and the Coruscant Police Gunship. The Naboo one looks cool and the Police Gunship has one of my favorite characters in it, I suppose- but I could have spent that money on gatting the Millenium Falcon instead -_-'
