I'm a first-time buyer in the online market, (My first online purchase ever, a $200-some pair of Audio-Technica ESW9s from HeadRoom, totalling $341.47 CDN w/ shipping; they were 50% off, and it happened literally five minutes ago), and I'm experiencing Buyer's Anxiety/Regret something fierce (FIERCE). Does anybody else get really bad anxiety when purchasing their earphones? Even of a lower price bracket, such as Grado SR60 or -80s.
It doesn't help that I'm a student and in a near-constant money-pinch (aren't all students, really?) and that I have to return a brand-new (three days old--) Boss RC-2 Loop Station to the store to be able to cover the headphone purchase in its entirety. (I was going to return it anyways, I found a sub-MSRP price on the Boss on eBay-- and yes, I ran it through a price calculator) However, until I return the pedal to the store tomorrow, I'm in debt.
THIS MAKES ME ANXIOUS.
TL;DR-- Do you suffer from buyers' anxiety, and do you make big sacrifices for your headphone obsessions?
