Im Anal....I finance almost every game I buy.

Grabbed another Sapphire Card, and bought a Pin, HUO, for 4K.
Put it on the card for $4120. Earned $600 in Gift cards.
Paid the $4120 off an equity Line at 4%.
So $165 in 1 year interest, and a net cost of $3520 for a POTC.
So with Tax benefits from a Mortgage account, Its around $10-$12 a month in Interest costs to own a game, and $600
at Lowes or Home Depot.
If I bought Well, I hope to See at Least $4K-$4400 back, if I chose to sell in a year.
Even without the Gift Cards....I will Break Even, Make a little, lose a Little.

For me, if I can do a couple games a year like this, even with parts and Mods, I have only actually Lost money on
2 games in 45 years....I dont do it for profit, I love for my friends to enjoy as well and we share back and forth.
Works great.....

The Key is, it doesnt work with NIB....

Just my wife's opinion on how I handle money....."I am a pain in the Ass!"

Chase Sapphire.....50,000 points top of ad.
