In Reply to: RE: In my experience, when that happens, there usually is a reason... posted by John Marks on April 15, 2023 at 09:41:12
Yep, I've seen it happen quite a bit. Some folks I know buy items that are on sale or at a massive discount and then try to cobble it all together expecting immediate synergy. IOW, throwing what are logical (but more costly of course) choices aside in favor of "getting a deal".
Follow Ups:
This knife cuts both ways. Sometimes the deal is there and requires more spending - it's not just cheapsters who get caught in this trap. It happened to me twice - where the all the work to find the right upgrade based on how much more I was going to spend and my system and preferences had been completed and the choice made. At last minute the dealer, who I had been working with, offered me a more expensive product (at a great price but still more than I was planning on spending). From experience just spending more can be as bad and maybe even worse than not spending enough.
Yep, I've been on both sides of that equation myself. With 45+ years in the hobby, it's pretty difficult not to have passed thru the "school of hard knocks" at least a couple of times if not more.
