My latest investment was certainly my most expensive piece of kit added to my setup! I saved up and decided to upgrade my camera kit from a Sony A7 to the most recent A7 model in the series, A7IV and accompanied it with a Sony FE 16-35mm f2.8 G Master Lens.

Not sure if I can use this but, I was going to say "my computer" but that seems a bit "on the nose" for a response, so i am going to submit this again as this cost me £1600 when I got it

If it's not valid, no issue :)

Let's try this again, eh?

First thing that comes to mind is when I purchased a bHaptics TactSuit X40 and Tactosy for Arms to go along with my VR setup about 3 years ago. Cost for both was about $750. VR Phasmophobia was pretty big at the time, and I was looking into ways to heighten the experience. Tried it a few times. Bluetooth connectivity was so weak--or I'm very dense--that the connection to the TactSuit vest's bluetooth module (located on the back) would only connect if I faced away from my VR PC. What should have been a dynamic range of subtle vibrations during a hair-raisingly uncomfortable walk through of Grafton Farmhouse to a frantic mimic of my heartrate pumping while being pursued by a revenant down the abandoned halls of Brownstone School, ended up being a consistently jarring break of immersion when every instance of haptic feedback was a noticeably loud buzz in my chest.

It was less that the ghost was toying around with me by lightly brushing past and causing me to question whether I felt what I thought I felt. It was more like I had accidentally given the ghosts my cellphone number and they were addicted to texting me.
