Most expensive item I have ever bought was a PC I spent $3000+ on. Next to that would be my frequent football hobby box purchases on the 2012 product year. Orders were routinely running over $1000 at a time for shit like National Treasures, Five Star and Exquisite.

Most expensive single item, I dropped 6k+ on an Indmar long block 350 boat motor.
Nothing more than a heavy duty Chevy engine set up for marine application. Cracked a head and sucked water throughout, and the engine had 1500 hours on it anyway.

Aside from that, which may fall under the real of transportation, I bought a $4700 Amerigo saddle as a new horse present for my lady.

Curious to see some answers here. Exclude air plane tickets, bills, & transportation, more along the lines of a physical product/item.

Have spent $400 on a framed Alshon Jeffery jersey. I don't really like big purchases online because I'd prefer to see it before taking a plunge online. $180 watch I kept getting targeted with FB ads from Original Grain and pulled the trigger. Don't buy much online that's $100+

I spent a G on a sweet ass hot dog machine. Awesome. Going to be great for all my kids parties and events. I reviewed the crap out of it and even spoke to the company before confirming purchase.

I'm also curious what the most inexpensive online purchase you guys have made. I think that could be interesting.

I once spent 9 bucks on Trojan condoms. There was a deal 3 packs for 9 bucks. I saved like 6-7 dollars :yeah:

Spent $5 on fiverr for a voice actor to berate and talk shit about my brother for 30 seconds. Sent him a link to it on his birthday. It was grand.

No joke they broke as I took them out of the packaging.
Mine lasted like a few months of hardly any use.

Sent from the mod station in Nome, Alaska.

Probably $900 on sports tickets but of course my buddies paid me back their portions.

Cheapest thing was when I used to buy sports cards on ebay. My favorite all time Cub being Shawon Dunston is a cheap hobby :lol: Basically the price of a stamp for common individual cards

Check out the reviews, some people think the 1 cent ring "looks cheap".

I usually do read reviews, but didn't this time. Fuckin priceless. Almost literally too.

The one cent ring looks cheap compared to that sweet ass two cent ring. Double the money, double the bling!

My answer has changed to Super Bowl Tickets. My brother is a big Panthers fan and we live in North Carolina so I went out there with him. We got club level seats for 4,200. We wound up buying them 3 days before the game but had airfare/lodging all taken care of. It was a little ballsy but they dropped from well over 5000. The next day after we bought them, they shot up!

After paying for everything, I'll only be coming out of pocket about 2k. We have a badass CPA for our business so it was one big business expense.

Well worth it for the experience I'd say
