Do whatever makes you happy! People like to buy expensive things not for their practicality... but for the fact that it makes them feel good to own whatever it is.

I bought myself a Cherry Gibson SG guitar for £1000 a few years back. Yes, I could have gotten an Epiphone copy for about £300 but smurf that. I don't regret it one bit... and I'm sure you'd be the same, Miss Lockharted.
