The other day I bought a 32 gigabyte thumb drive. I had to transfer a huge number of Audi / Volkswagen and Chrysler / Jeep / Dodge photos (15 gigs at least) from a client's computer to one of ours, and no other method besides actually schlepping the thumb drive from A to B was practical. I picked up a nice inexpensive ($69) one at Best Buy. It was a good deal.
Unfortunately, that was about three days ago, and I've already lost the drive.
My question is, how long does an item have to remain usable before whatever bargain it was becomes a non-bargain, due to inability to use it? This three-ish days feels like the bargain was obliterated. No matter how good the transaction, no matter if it is a low, low price, if it's lost or broken too soon, you spent too much.
