Well, I posted this in my old, old thrifty-fi thead. But since I figured this is a pretty fun idea, I made another thread for everyone to share their expenditures and such. I wonder if anyone on head-fi has ever made a profit.

I'm still a head-fi newbie

 

[Computerpro3]

if you include audio purchases that headfi indirectly inspired (car audio stuff for example) lets just say I'm out more than a new entry level compact car

 

[Zorander]

Unless you make a lot of sales (usually from cable making and mods you perform), it is more likely that you make a loss here.

lol, the fun part is seeing how much you've lost though!

I think my wallet is through the worst of the pain though.

 

[Mindless]

($1300) : Grado GS1000 w/ Black Dragon recable.

However, since I gained awsome sound, I can't really treat it as a loss...

 

[rumatt]

Whoops. Never mind.

 

[souperman]

I've only made a profit off of my Fubar II and my Senn595's.

 

[kojebee]

Bought 17 headphones. Total costs $1,531

Sold 7 headphones. Total income $415

5 pairs have broken or been given away. 5 have been kept.

I made a profit on XtremeMac FS1 and the Sennheiser PX100.

Double post

Just purchased a pair of yh-100s! haha, getting poorer and poorer.

 

[Logman]

Over $1,100 in the 10 months since I discovered that there is something better than the ipod earbuds.

But you can always flip them for a profit, right?

 

[The Pieman]

I do not view any of the money I have spent as a loss! It is all good.
