[quote name='bigdaddybruce44']This has always been the way I look at things. If you can afford to buy something (this being the most important aspect) and want to buy it now, just buy it. Don't sit around waiting for a drop, unless it's actually announced, and it's like next week. Yeah, you'll spend a little more for it now, but you'll also get to enjoy it for a longer time.[/QUOTE]
On the flip side, if you know you're not gonna play it right away, hang onto the money and buy it when you know you'll start using it. That way if there is a price drop or sale, you can get in on it- just don't wait specifically for it or worry about it if you know you want it know and will use it now.
(I bring this up only becuase I deal with a lot of folks who buy something full price and bring it back weeks later, sealed, to get an adjustment to a sale price. I always wonder why they paid full price knowing full well they aren't going to use it right away.)
