Flawed poll. Missing acquiring tools.
Exactly!
I love the buying process.
Agonizing over the question of "did I make the right choice" by spending hours on end - while waiting for the delivery of whatever I bought to be delivered - by pouring over endless online reviews of the tool/item.
Spending days/weeks/months & sometimes years - searching for the best possible price on something, then making a snap decision to buy something else.
Checking then rechecking my bank balance - while waiting for the delivery of the item I bought - to see how far in the hole my purchase will put me. (maybe the shop elves (the ones that some one here at SMC said looked like Jessica Alba) have deposited a thousand dollars into my bank account).
Trying to find the best combination of - price - customer service - delivery charges - by scouring all the possible places to purchase.
& the other side
The horrible low that comes about when to tool is delivered & I open the box only to see - I have to put it together. I don't want pieces! I refuse to accept the fact that I have to spend hours assembling my new found toy! Where are those Jessica Alba shop elves?
It's like "The hunt". They call it hunting because it's all about the hunt and not the kill.
