How do I avoid my wife murdering me when I come home with two more YS-250Pro strobes today?

my wife stopped having issues with my camera gear once i pointed out that the "big pile over there" cost less than her new bracelet.

since then it has been open season for me.

and NO, i do not want to talk about our jewerly problem.

... and I'm guessing, long shot here, that Mrs giffenk doesn't want to talk about it either

Eeeee, life. You gotta love it, right? Especially when that new bit of kit is delivered.....

My wife is our company accountant which puts me in a tough place every time I ‘need’ more stuff!

Ditto, now we have a deal, I clean out another piece of older gear and reinvest it, 1oz of gold usually helps!!.......... Anyone need a Sea and Sea 12mm??

I have a skillet and strobes but no wife. Problem solved.

I can sell you a skillet.....

Mmmm mine hasn't spotted the Nauticam housing that arrived yesterday, could get interesting... then again after 30 yrs we have an understanding (yes dear...)

FYI, there is a "Wanted to buy" in the classifieds for a S&S 12mm

Thank you Brant

It's always nice when they learn to take the philosophical outlook and just sigh and shake their head. Mine is - fortunately - there, at least as long as I don't abuse the privilege too much. Over the years I've become quite adept at spotting the tiny signals indicating that I'm getting perilously close to the edge...

Wow, do I get it -- but in this scenario, I am the wife! :-) UW photography is expensive and sooooo hard to explain... What does your spouse love? What is her passion? Fund it the same. Share the love and the expenditures on hobbies -- keep everyone happy! ;-)

Woah, there's a thought... keep everyone happy? Does that ever work? isn't that just a ideal dream???
