Have you ever bought things randomly because of nostalgia?

I kid you not, I work with a guy who is on his THIRD Wii console.  He keeps buying then selling them back to Gamestop about a month after he and his wife get bored with it.  This along with untold other things.  He's about 40 years old, and is constantly flushing money down the toilet by doing this exact thing with video games and such.  He bought a PS3, only to sell it back about two months later.

Funny thing is he doesn't have wads of cash to do this.

I have friends who do this with pawnshops. Silly thing is, they most often bought the crap from there in the first place. Each time is more and more oney lost. I keep telling them if they just went without beer and weed for one week, they'd be back in the black!

Haha yeah I bought the whole set of Dinosaurs Attack! From the 80's just cause I had found 4 of the cards in my closet and I wanted to know the rest of the story. Good ol ebay. King of the money blowers...
