If it helps, way out the expense of the potential loss rather than the money you laid out on the purchase. This hobby allows you(in most cases) to buy an item and use it, then resell it at a 10-20% loss. I’m in a lot of hobby’s and mostly everything I purchase for them is a total loss. So if you paid 8k (still not chump change) for a NIB and used the piss out of it for a year, sold it for 6.5-7k that’s still cheap entertainment!
