I did second think about my Go when it came available to buy. It was so new then I had to be on a preorder list. I would replace it in a minute if it broke. I bought the Quilter's Slidelock when it was only available in Australia under another name. I bought a Quilter's Select ruler to try and it is the best ruler I have ever used. I now have the QS mat, and all sizes of the rulers. I buy Creative Grid brand when I need a specialty ruler. The Martelli round rotating mat has been wonderful to have.
Honestly I have never found a notion or ruler that I thought was extravagant. I buy new ones all the time to try out. How can you tell if they are something that you will love using if you don't try them?
When I started quilting it was after both my kids graduated from college. Nothing I could have or do buy for quilting would be as expensive as two girls in college at the same time. LOL
