i have a theory about this kind of behavior. person A wants gear.
person A can't afford gear. person A communicates with person B (who
has gear person A wants) for a day(s). in A's mind, person A
vicariously "owns" gear for a short period of time. person A has a
great story to tell his friends - "oh dude, i came soooo close to
buying a supercoolgizmo but i just couldn't do it. i set up a deal
with this dude and everything"! friends ooh and ahh about how person A
vicariously "owned" the supercoolgizmo. friends don't have to be real
but can easily be fragments of person A's mind.

shit like that has happened to me so many times that i'm convinced
that my theory is correct.
