What's the most expensive thing you've bought on Ebay / Amazon?

Recommended Posts

I bought my copy of CastleVania: Symphony of The Night on Amazon a few years back.

That's the only thing I've ever bought online.

New Zealand (AUS) $50

I doubt any of you people in that little West Island could afford to buy either of the two main islands. :p

I've never used eBay, and I have only ever bought small items from Amazon - a few books, DVDs, etc. The biggest online purchases I've made are my current desktop machine (from Dell) and a Laserjet printer (from HP).

The most expensive thing I've ever got from Amazon would probably be the Invader Zim DVD I ordered the other week. It had better get here before the weekend... Also got the Johnny the Homocidal Maniac and Squee books with the order. Those are the only things I've ever bought on Amazon.

I bought a copy of Strife and Forsaken on eBay for $7.50US each a few years ago.

Amazon: £340 ($600USD ish) Star Trek TNG Borg Megacube

Ebay bought: £122 ($200USD ish) Psion Series 5MX with bits and pieces (EPOC owns you)

Ebay sold: £430 ($775USD ish) HPI Savage nitro-fuelled r/c car

I'm thinking about buying my next project car on ebay, so could be thousands... it's been great for variosu things but I don't like My ebay 2.0 much yet, could use a good deal of tweaking.

heh dude, I am single, so I don't have to buy all kind of crap for a GF :) so I put my dough wherever I want :)

btw the $860 sale is another black lotus alpha I sold, which was in worse shape than the $700 one.

Oh also, I collect MTG vintage cards... that's basically the only thing I put dough in... oh well, I forgot I also buy a lot of fancy wines... (I am winemaker) :P

I don't buy fancy cars, neat Hifi, high end PCs and such.
