I think I have only heard one person AFTER a crash say that they had wished they hadn't spent so much money on gear. One of the patriarch's of the shop that RACK sends his money to whether they need it or not once told me when I was looking at helmets in his shop that "of course I am trying to sell you the best helmet I have, but just think of how much you would be willing to spend if you could feeze the action the next time you are about to hit something: How much would you spend RIGHT then?" You just have to sift out what is marketing and what is function and fit.
