What's holding you back?

So, what's holding you back from your next purchase?

Saving, selling something, meeting up with someone, birthdays to come?

 

For me personally, I'm selling something that needs a specific buyer. Although the market is quite big for it, I just don't know whether I'll have it sold tomorow or next month, or even the one after that. My upcoming PC, in specs, are what I'm going to be buying.

 

So, what's holding you back for something and why is it holding you back?

I guess if you're in dire need of a new system, you would be more tempted to "risk" the ignoring of upcoming releases.

So if one of your horses needs hooves or whatever, (I just know that horses are expensive) it is safe to asume that you will feast that night ? meat-is-back-on-the-menu.gif

Ja. This, really. That and my build is at a point where upgrading is more for a bling factor than anything. Only thing I could see myself changing is the case to an H440.
