What item have you purchase and now regret owning?

i purchase a Kohler Campbell baby grand piano for my wife and one daughter to play.

Here it sits no one ever plays it anymore and not one of my daughters want it. I will never get out what I paid. What was a good idea and plan didn't work out.

Most things that I bought, or 'won' at fundraiser auctions!

My biggest regret was a jet ski.
It was used, and man did it fucking suck.

I once bought an expensive pair of sunglasses. I broke them within a week. Cheap ones from drug/grocery stores from then on.

I bought a $250 shirt from Burberry once

It fit like shit, was poorly made, and a pain in the ass to iron. IMO it was worth about $20

LOL.... you didn't examine the quality or try on a $250 shirt before you bought it?

Polk Monitor 30 speakers. In all fairness, I didn't "buy" them, they were a gift from my dad. However, I told him specifically which ones to get. I now regret it because they're too big for my setup in my apartment, plus I don't have a subwoofer or rear speakers. Eventually I want to get an Energy 5.1 system but I'll have to get rid of the monitors

bought it from England.....

the only thing I regret is not accepting what a POS shirt it was and just returning it. Instead I tried to convince myself it was ok, but naw.

If you went with the Japanese truck it is probably incapable of hauling it.

I have sat here for a few minutes trying to think of something. aside from the occasional impulse cd/dvd purchase back in high school, I don't really have any high-ticket items I regret.

I normally just flip items if they turn out to be useless. I also religiously review high-ticket items before I pull the trigger on them.

This story is repeated often. Expensive sunglasses bought and broken shortly thereafter. Then the cheap ones.....you cannot break or lose them.......ever!
