What was your biggest impulse buy?

My biggest impulse buy ever was my last one. I was looking online for an Asteroids for my friend at work and found this. Less than 8 hours later it was in my house. Thought my wife would be pissed but she absolutely loves it.

Beautiful.
 
Star Wars Cockpit.

Largest and cost the most.

I saw it online one night and emailed the guy immediately, without knowing how I was going to get it, or if my wife would let me.......

the rest was the hard part......
 
I don't really impulse buy, especially when it comes to arcade games but I did do that with my Centipede cocktail table recently.
 
Fluke 9010a, I have one but no one has extra parts and getting anyone to part with anything for these is like pulling teeth. So I bought another and am going to repro some hardware tidbits. So in the end i'll have 2 working ones, will eventually sell 1 (maybe lol)

What are you planning on reproducing?
 
The screws that hold the ports for the pods and probe in place on the case. and the power switch actuator (green plastic piece) maybe a new plate for converting the rs232 to usb.
 
Fixed it for ya.

Nah. Deciding to buy a game after it's been sitting on craigslist or eBay for weeks is hardly an impulse buy, and several of my games were acquired that way. An impulse buy is pulling the trigger immediately. If you mull it over for longer than a day then it doesn't qualify, IMO.
