    I started buying about 15 months ago so no regrets because I've bought the highest priority items on my list. That doesn't mean there isn't still stuff out there that I'd like to get. I'll be keeping my eye if an Ed Brown Kobra Carry or Dan Wesson C-Bob or V-Bob pops up for PPT, and I wouldn't mind picking up a 9mm 1911 at some point.

      If I really want a gun I am perfectly happy overpaying some to get it via ppt (as my sse slots are all used up)

        Supply and demand, demand and supply... I have a friend who lined up for the iPhone 6+ for three days, and I laughed at him. He said it was worth it... He even stated you can resale them on eBay the same day for $400-$500 profit as off-sea's buyers would pay the premium just to have it via first day out. Knowing that I love my tools, he asked me if there was a new gun and there is only 1000 available units, and you'll have to line up for three days, would you? I told him, most definitely worth the line up.... As for PPT, I'm only digging the one's with five stars here on Private Sales, because those people are taking a loss and helping a fellow member out. I will not overpay for a VP9 or a Gen 4, I rather just just build a higher quality AR with that taxed PPT money... Personal opinion IMO, but hey if you gotta have her, you'll do anything, understand you completely....

            wording is weird, thought this was about regretting what you bought.

                Regrets? I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention.

                    No SSE purchases, no regrets. I didn't catch the bug. Cheers!

                      Really want a sig p938. Hopefully one will pop up next year that isn't insane in price!

                          Walther P99C 9mm. I prioritized others above it and now can't find one...

                              Glock 34/41, that's about it and maybe a Mk.23 but that's more of a not wanting to get raped issue. The locking on the LCI Navy looks pretty bad the top of the barrel is supposed to be hexed and not flat. No idea if this is going to cause problems down the line.

                                I bought everything I wanted and will keep. I would have liked to have gotten a Glock 19, gen 4 but a gen3 next year is okay too.
