O.k. Today, my dad bought me a really COOL cello. I love it. It was about $800.00! Tell us what the most expensive thing you've ever gotten.

I don't think this is a good topic my friend, it just crosses into to many other things. I'll just say my $1,500 VAIO computer:mad:

I want a drumset...but most of the good ones (double bass drums) cost $700+

My parrot cost about $1,000 dollars, with his cage. He was my birthday present for when I turned 11 (I think?)

Anyways, most expensive thing I ever got was probably my computer, around $1,200.00.

My bike. It costed 1500 NOK. Divide by 7 to get US dollars. Man, that bike has hurt me so much. I got the steer into a fence so I took a front flip and landed on my head. This other time I cycled right into a lot of these. (http://www.rolv.no/images/medisinplanter/urti_dio2.jpg) and burned like every inch on body that wasn't clothed :( Oh, and I cycled off a medium sized cliff once because a squirrel ran out in the road and I didn't want to kill it. :(

I don't really like my bike all that much when I think about it.

Whoa! nice bass! which brand is it? can't tell from there. I love the color.

So what kind of music do you play? (one you preffer the most).

I want an ESP guitar...:mad: If only they were free:D :up:

DeathKnight, please do not take the thread off topic. You can PM him with those questions.

Other than my house, I would have to say my car and then my computer. :cat:

I bought a car, but it wasn't a gift. The most expensive thing I've ever been given was when I graduated high school and my parents bought me a laptop.

My camera equipment currently stands at about $2000, but in May I'll be getting a $1,600 lens, and a $1,300 camera, and a $300 flash bumping my total photography investment to about $5,200.

Give me a little time and I'll eventually work up to buying a Canon MarkII which alone costs about $7,000. :D

Oh, this is a most expensive thing you've ever <i>recieved as a gift</i>...not most expensive thing you've ever <i>bought for youself</i>. Then I think that it would probably be my diamond earrings. :cat:

I got my computer for my... 20th or 21st birthday. I think my 21st. It was like $1500. My mom tends to splurge on my birthday because I'm an only child and my birthday comes during her busiest time at work so she's making way more money than the rest of the year.

O.k. Today, my dad bought me a really sexy cello. I love it. It was about $800.00! Tell us what the most expensive thing you've evr gotten.
Hmm... a chelo is a long tubed shaped thing. You find it "sexy" I shall make no further comment.

The most expensive thing I got was an XBox, and that was between me and two siblings. *sob* I'm impoverished. Give me sympathy! Or money, whichever works best.

If I had so much money, I wouldn't spend on one big stupid thing (you're possessions are stupid). I'd either buy a whole load of stupid little things or a small country somewhere. I've got my eyes on Trinidad & Tobago- that's two for the price of one! What a bargain!

The EOS 1D MkII? Goddamit I love that camera. I work in a camera shop and I have to keep myself from playing with it all the time. We also have a canon L-series 300-800mm lens that costs £5000. I'm too scared to touch that!

Most expensive thing I've brought myself would be a plane ticket to Hong Kong...about £500 GBP.

Most expensive thing brought for me...uh...either my PC, or my car..an R-reg ford fiesta encore that cost £1600 GBP.

Its red!! :D:D

my $1200 sax. of which i had to pick up half the cost, but still.

and my car, which was bought five years before 'twas given to me by my parents, so i dunno if that really counts. since they used it first.

You have a parrot? Can we teach it to be asian?

My computer costs well over 2000$ because all the parts were upgraded as they became obselete.

A bunk-bed me and my brother share, it cost £400, it's got a desk with it. We got it instead of a X-Box when it was first released.
