I rarely make these kinds of posts, but I been thinking a lot lately about just this topic, due to a friend of mine.
I'll start.
In general I almost never buy anything new. Now when I got into this hobby, I've bought a lot of new molds and still buying new molds. That is the exception, But it seems everything else, going back 30+ years when I became an adult, I've always looked for a deal on used stuff (Tools, Cars, House, appliances, you name it). One great example, In 1993 when I bought the house (built in 1920) that I now live in, I also bought a used old Olive-green (1970s) clothes washing machine and am still using it, Using it today in fact.
Now my friend, He is same age as me (Gen X'er), he will only buy new. I've never seen him buy a used anything. He makes good money, but is always broke. It just drives me crazy, but it shouldn't, because it's his deal, not mine...but still...
So, I'm curious, is there anyone here that buy only new?
