Tell us about a time you purchased something you really wanted and couldn't wait to have, but soon regretted.

There was a time when I adored eBay. I was purchasing stuff like crazy. Every day was Christmas. One thing I always wanted was a pinball machine. Don't ask why, I just did. Had to have it. This was around the time that the Pretty Park virus was running around and what a mess. The computer got infected, I had to figure out a way to get that stupid machine to Minnesota from Arizona, and then I could not turn off or adjust the bells and whistles on that machine. Let's just say, the only good thing that resulted from that debacle was that it cured my eBay infection, and I found out why pinball machines should stay in arcades where they belong. It was not the last sale, just the last purchase. A couple "sales" later, the glow of eBay lust was dead forever.
